Is anyone actually in charge of TLP? Malachi is, ostensibly, but did Omar talk to him before making Magdalene call her dad? This is a security risk. But even short of that, this is a risk to Magdalene. This poor child never had a real chance in her life, and now she’s going to end up dead. Read more

I’ll stop now, but again, I’m trying to figure out what Bible Kelly is reading, because it’s definitely not the regular one. The vast vast majority of men in the Bible were manifestly not warriors. Read more

Um. You guys. This happened. A man does not release a private conversation he has with anyone. That’s part of being a man. Democrat, Republican, Trump, anti-Trump, none of that matters.You don’t repeat things said to you privately.
