Hey, hey, hey!

From a civil liberties perspective, tricking someone into waiving their 5th amendments rights is not right.
Who in Hollywood isn't?
When will the Pennsylvania Supremes finally get around to tackling the irregularities in the 2020 election including different ballot rejection standards for different parts of the state?
Puddin’ Pops for everyone!
Na na na gonna have a good time
this is news to me, but if those are the facts, then totally agreed
i do not trust prosecutors anymore....not sure i ever did. they are just trying to make a political name for themselves, and perhaps they can make it to Congress to get REALLY rich
plus..after a hung jury in the first trial, they allowed testimony from 5 other women that was wayyy past the statute of limitations to establish a “pattern”...a big no no...the “pusses” were all up in arms and he was the first of the “me too” crusade, they wanted his ass bad...

If you agree that we need to play by a set of rules, then this is an example where I applaud the ruling—but think a guilty man is allowed to walk free. And that is OK by me.
Weinstein by the weekend.

The world is big, wide, and wonderful. You should learn not to paint with such a broad brush.
