The 2017 Perv Thread - Reporter says Congress ‘To Be Rocked’ In Next 72 Hours; Over A Dozen Resignations Coming - Chris Mathews up now
Isn't Kozinski (a Reagan appointee) the one who issued the first strike down of Trump's travel ban?

No.

Kozinski has been more in the Scalia tradition. I’ve read many of his opinions, have several of his articles and books. He is a prolific author and speaker. Many of his clerks have been hired by SC Justices, so he has been known as a feeder judge.

He was born in communist Rumania, came here as a boy and at 35 was the youngest appeals court judge, maybe ever.

I’m sorry to see this.

On the bright side, “Kozinski's retirement leaves five seats open on the 9th Circuit, with two more judges already having announced their intention to retire next year. That gives President Donald Trump potentially seven seats to fill on the largest and most liberal appeals court in the country.” Yahoo News.




Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

It's gone WAY past the point of silliness. "I want you to exercise naked in front of me, or you're fired" is the real thing. Suggesting that someone would look good doing so may be inappropriate, but shouldn't be causing someone long term psychological damage.

I’d like to see how many appellate law clerks have ever been fired. It is conceivable that some have been, but I doubt it is very many.

Those jobs are short term, a year usually, are highly sought after, go to top students at top law schools, and are pretty much the gold standard for a resume.

Guess that means DJT has an opportunity to replace Kosinski with an even more conservative judge.

Tavis Smiley says he wants to "lead us in a conversation about how to create healthy workspaces."

Remember, guys- when one of these phony leftists starts talking about "having a conversation", you know that this is a dead-end road. It's meaningless- utterly meaningless- blather.

There's no honesty in these people

That's right. Blame your destruction of a vast sports media enterprise on your drug use, you lying piece of shit. The fact is ESPN is dying because SOCIAL JUSTICE WARRIOR ASSHOLES LIKE YOU KILLED IT.

Liberals seem incapable of not destroying the proverbial golden goose.

ESPN President John Skipper resigns citing substance abuse issue

By Sasha Savitsky | Fox News

ESPN President John Skipper announced Monday he is resigning from the network due to a substance addiction problem.

"I have struggled for many years with a substance addiction. I have decided that the most important thing I can do right now is to take care of my problem," Skipper said in a statement.

Skipper said he and the company have "mutually agreed" it was appropriate for him to resign.

"I come to this public disclosure with embarrassment, trepidation and a feeling of having let others I care about down," Skipper's statement continued. "As I deal with this issue and what it means to me and my family, I ask for appropriate privacy and a little understanding."

Walt Disney CEO, Bob Iger, announced former ESPN President George Bodenheimer will serve as acting chair for the next 90 days, until they find a full-time replacement for Skipper.

Skipper joined the Disney-owned network in 1997. He became president of ESPN in 2012.

Skipper's exit comes after a rocky year for the sports network.

Just last week, a bombshell report described ESPN's culture as one of hostility and sexual misconduct toward women.

The report by The Boston Globe specifically named several men employed by or affiliated with ESPN as being subjects of harassment complaints.

Interviews conducted by the Globe with roughly two dozen current and former employees portrayed a “locker room culture,” where men regularly made unwanted sexual advances to female colleagues, gave unsolicited shoulder rubs and rated women based on their looks.

The network laid off 150 employees in November, just months after letting go 100 employees in April, including several veterans like Ed Werder, Trent Dilfer and Danny Kanell.

ESPN came under fire in August after they pulled an announcer from a college football game named Robert Lee because his name is similar to that of Confederate General Robert E. Lee.

The network also faced heat after suspending Jemele Hill in October after she violated the company's social media guidelines twice for calling on Twitter for people to boycott advertisers over the NFL protests and for calling President Trump a "white supremacist."

ESPN also cancelled "Barstool Van Talk" in October after one episode amid outcry over the Barstool's brand's commentary on women.


From the comments:

It is interesting to learn that behind all the liberal sanctimony at ESPN, they are little more than a bunch of hypocritical, unscrupulous, unethical, amoral, self-destructive frauds---not unlike every other leftist entertainment outlet in this country.

The Carolina Panthers owner is being 'investigated'.

The news called his behavior "EXPLOSIVE!".

He asked women to turn around so he could see their asses, reached across them to buckle their seatbelts, and something else stupid.

First off, Fuck the NFL.

Second off, while entertaining, this is really stupid.
