The jury all KNOWS Trump is a rapist, so it is of course going to be HARD to find 18 people who LIKE him.

From April 8, 2024, "Talk of the Town" - "The Next Abortion Battle"
“Women will still have access to chemical abortion under the same protections that existed for the first 16 years of mifepristone’s use,” the A.H.M. writes. This is, of course, nonsense. As both the A.H.M. and the Justices—who will hear oral arguments in the case on Tuesday—know quite well, women in the United States do not have the same access to any type of abortion that they did in 2016.
According to an amicus brief from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and other groups, mifepristone “has a safety profile comparable to that of ibuprofen.” The acog brief also emphasizes that easier access is crucial to low-income and rural patients, many of whom live in what are called “maternity-care deserts.”

(Nationally, the increase was ten per cent.) That number suggests that Dobbs has levied a travel tax: Guttmacher estimates that a hundred and sixty thousand people crossed state lines to obtain an abortion last year.

From the November 20, 2023 "The New Yorker" - an article by Eyal Press:
"In 2019, the National Institute of Standards and Technology, a federal agency, published a study revealing that many facial-recognition systems falsely identified Black and Asian faces between ten and a hundred times more frequently than Caucasian ones. Errors were also more common for women and elderly people."
And some folks wonder why the informed among us decry systemic racism.

Israel’s Likud party, which is led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, embraced a river to the sea slogan in its original 1977 platform. They used the expression “between the Sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty.” That certainly can been seen as having malign intent.
