Tales of the Fourth Grade Nothing?...
(I know)
When it comes to defense attorneys, being sleazy is not necessarily a minus.
And this was news to anyone?!*
*: same applies to her mother
Harvey Weinstein will be producing movies in 18 months and will receive a Lifetime Achievement Award within 3 years - to rapturous applause.
She should have turned in her license when she had Kathy Griffin as a client!!
“Hi! I’m a Blooming idiot!”
I wonder what she thinks of Harvey’s couch...
Bloom needs to go play the Boom-Boom Room.

I wouldn’t bet against it.
Feminists and other leftists hate women and children almost as much as muslims do.
I don’t know about the timeline, but O agree with you.
One of the finest people I know is a Public Defender. I’m just saying.
