It was over for Max Miller politically when he said his wife couldn’t have been abused because she offered to make him dinner 6 days later. He may not have known it when he said it, but that was the end. You have to be a sick bastard to come up with that as your defense.

A Black woman sits on the DC metro as masked white Trump supremacists prepare to march on the streets of D.C. Look how proud she is to show her face while they are all too ashamed to show theirs. She’s a hero, they are all cowards….
