which means every thursday at 3:30 p.m. because of there s one thing about theory scholars, they are early risers. sandy talks a lot in both classes, jumps in the conversation when she feels he has something important to say which is frequently. she is hardly a genius but she is highly self-assured. she s got strong opinions about racism and cosmetics. she seems to spend a lot of time updating her facebook page. the main things you remember about sandy cortez. fast forward ten years. suddenly, sandy cortez is a world famous figure. somehow. she is calling herself alexandria ocasio-cortez. some kind of female westchester county s first socialist revolutionary, still yammering on about racism and eye shadow, her obsession, and she is still frantically updating her social media pages. some things have not changed. but other things have changed. one night, you are watching tv and you see sandy cortez talking authoritatively about america s energy grid. like she knows a lot abou
presented with evidence about what happened, and she came to the conclusion that he falls into the category of those who would be disqualified, but for the fact of the office that he seeks, or the office that he once held and the oath that he took. and so i think that s relevant. certainly, maybe not in a court of law, but in the court of public opinion, the idea that this looks like insurrection and he looks like an insurrectionist, i think is very relevant. thank you to both of you. i actually have a lot more to discuss with you, but this is the way things go these days. melissa murray is a law professor at nyu and an msnbc legal analyst. julia lithwick is the senior editor at slate, and author of the important book lady justice, women, the law, and the battle to save america. still to come, we continue our coverage of the breaking news and the fight over donald trump s eligibility to run for president again. just moments from now, i ll be joined by the colorado secretary
be convicted. right. those are good things in his column. do you think there would be any downside here for president biden were hunter to be convicted? of course, as the personal toll, of course. do we think there is political im impact? yeah, there are low information voters who are like, they re both in trouble with the law. i would say hunter biden is very different than donald trump and being a crack addict because you have an addiction is very different than a myriad after criminal charges, many cases which you ve been able to punt. then you have the fraud cases. i don t think they re the same at all, but i do think, you know, everything can be a problem, especially in politics. certainly, those close to president biden worry about just how he will receive this news. we know he is deeply worried about his son. also, the first lady coming back from france to go to the trial. i mean, the sister has been there. everyone in biden world, they re a close family. i t

"Shin Ukkaṭṭha” in local periodicals, newspapers, journals, and history is recognized as “the revolutionary thinker and monk of Burma." Given the number of norms he has broken in his life, he certainly deserved the label.
