I'm older than the plaintiff in this suit, seems she can take care of things quite well - she could find a lawyer.

Evidence like this is not credible. Sorry sweetheart. If you had, like the Cosby accusers, actually made complaints at the time, or spoken to friends, so there was some sort of timely record, this accusation might have meant something.

Dylan's songs (even one of them), more than make up for whatever injury he did to this probably fictiicious memory, likely lying and now dried up old harpie. As Shakespeare said, to paraphrase. "screw all the lawyers!. The world would be so much better without them. As well as most of the politicians.

I can't stand this hack of a 'singer', but trying to pull this crap 55 years past the event is nothing but trash. I understand that NY has some law that waived all statute of limitations for this kind of thing that is just about to expire, so this seems like nothing but a Hail Mary for some quick cash. You blew it, lady. The time to jump up and down about this was when it happened.

In 1964 Dylan releases "The Times They Are a Changing". Both the title song and album are hits. In 1965 Dylan releases two albums: Bringing It All Back Home and highway 61 Revisited. In May 1965 Dylan tours Britain and sells out Albert Hall. Dylan has arrived and this 25 year old is one of the young gods of rock with the likes of Rolling Stones, The Animals, The Yardbirds and The Beatles. These are the times of flower power, free love, and anything goes and his world is full of young willing vixens at his every beck and call. But wait, back in his Chelsea Hotel apartment, Dylan has a special 12-year old that he's spending weeks to groom. Why that sounds perfectly sensible, I believe her, guilty! I like this "Boots of Spanish Leather" cover by Mandolin Orange. Take a few quiet minutes and enjoy the story.

A damning new government watchdog report on Afghanistan reconstruction revealed on Tuesday the 'many failures' of the last 20 years in the nation. The report, which relied on 13 years of oversight work, more than 760 interviews and thousands of government documents, analyzed the progress of the last two decades, which it deemed 'elusive' and sustainability of that progress, 'dubious.' The report noted that the US has now spent $837 billion on warfighting and $145 billion trying to rebuild Afghanistan, during which 2,443 American troops and 66,000 Afghan troops were killed.

For instance, law enforcement expert and retired FBI agent James A. Gagliano posted a photo of U.S.-armed Taliban leaders in the presidential palace, noting, “So disheartening to see Taliban fighters — armed w/U.S Military weapons systems, M-16s and M-4s (and no determination as to how/where they obtained them) — inside Afghan presidential palace following President Ashraf Ghani’s fleeing the country.” (Tweet/Photo)

A Washington Post editorial said he could have listened to the 'many seasoned hands' giving him alternatives to withdrawal, adding that him blaming others was 'unseemly' given that 2,448 US service members died in 20 years.

It was the first time the president had spoken publicly about the unfolding crisis in six days.

President Joe Biden will remain hidden at his presidential retreat at Camp David through Monday, according to the White House, as the Taliban swiftly seized control of Afghanistan. The president’s daily guidance for Monday indicated Biden would remain at Camp David for at least one more day, with no public events scheduled. But a senior administration official indicated to reporters Sunday evening that Biden might address the country “in the next few days,” according to reports. It remains unclear whether Biden will speak from Camp David or return to the White House to deliver his speech, the reports noted. He was previously scheduled to remain at Camp David until Wednesday.

Joe Biden and his media acolytes call him Mr. Empathy and Mr. Compassion. His Afghanistan speech yesterday told a different story, and should end that phony spin forever. My takeaway was how cold, and hard, and compassionless Biden was as he sought to extricate himself from the catastrophe of his own making. He blamed everyone but himself for his failure, particularly the Afghan army. He smarmily assured terrified Afghanis left behind he'd now speak out for their human rights instead of actually protect them. He effectively told U.S. servicemembers their service was for nothing. It was appalling.

Although the White House had intended to keep Biden under wraps for as long as possible, the demand that he say something – anything – about the unfolding debacle in Afghanistan forced him to leave Camp David for a 20-minute statement, after which he refused to take any questions. The important part of what he said boils down to one sentence: We had to leave and everything that went wrong was Trump’s or the Afghans' fault. Biden is a craven coward, a feckless fool, a dismal dummy, and a man who will soon have more blood on his hands than a thousand Lady Macbeths.
