According to court filings obtained by American Ledger , North Carolina Republican Senator Thom Tillis’ ex-wife alleged “cruel and inhuman treatment” by Tillis, raising questions about the reasons surrounding the couple’s eventual divorce. In Tennessee, where the couple was married, “cruel and inhuman treatment” legally includes domestic violence, adultery, emotional or verbal abuse, and sexual assault.
The divorce complaint, filed in August 1979 on Tillis’ birthday, stated that Tillis was “guilty of such cruel and inhuman treatment or conduct towards the plaintiff as renders further cohabitation unsafe and improper.” The divorce filing also noted that Tillis’ ex-wife felt “unsafe and improper” living with Tillis any further because of his actions, which may include any or all of the actions outlined in the law.
Aargh. I didn’t mean to hijack the thread. Mod note to myself: don’t do that.
Apparently Trump has walked back that refusal to negotiate a bit, but not for any proposal that would help ordinary people. And McTurtle really doesn’t seem to care about anything but immunizing employers from suits by their employees who get sick for lack of protective equipment.
I think McConnell sees the writing on the wall and is doing his level best to make things as bad as he can for the next administration.
The man is a traitor (don’t bother citing the constitutional definition of “traitor”…I know…I am using the dictionary definition).
