He is a narcissistic turn coat spook masquerading as a hero. He gave china and Russia so much. Even pushing RFK, just on script.

On this July 4, please pause to remember that one of the colonists’ complaints in the Declaration was that the Crown was paying its judges.

Pretty much every move I’ve ever made in comics since age 25 has been inspired by the 70-year-olds I saw in comic con Artist Alleys, cranking out sketches of characters they created but don’t own, to pay their doctor bills and nursing home fees.

Part of me still thinks Flynn is his guy, because Flynn will get intelligence briefings, and that might make a certain donor happy.

I mean at a certain point these how-would-it-go -in-court-if-he-abuses-this-new-power scenarios are all self-defeating because once we’re in them he would just abuse more power to ensure it never gets near a court in the first place

Look... I've said this before and had a lot of people jump down my throat because the cultural aversion runs so deep, but you all really should own a gun and know how to use it. This is not a doom post to be clear. It's just prudent.

Things are going very well when we've reached the "Don't worry, the military won't obey orders to kill civilians" stage of democratic backsliding. It's the sweet spot, where good things happen. Right where we want to be.

The answer is the convictions will somehow miraculously get overturned and the Liberal "we finally got him" edging cycle will begin anew.

It'd look like investigating thorughly for years, and then prosecuting the guy who pressured State SoS's to find votes and incite a mob to interfere with the certification of an election?

If the president is as unaccountable as the Supreme Court says now, no one should probably ever be president again IMHO. LIke, am I a real anarchist now?

Over the weekend, one of the major party presidential candidates promoted the idea of trying a former congresswoman for treason with televised military tribunals, and I’ll bet you haven’t seen a news article—much less a catastrophizing op-ed—about it.

"Look, the Wall Street Journal lists all these companies that did poorly after they initiated diversity initiatives." Huh, looks like most of them were also acquired by private equity groups in leveraged buyouts, and then conducted stock buybacks. "YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO ACTUALLY READ THAT FAR!"

235 years since the constitution was signed, and we are getting this new found clarity because a President committed crimes and his Renfields on the Supreme Court have his back.

on top of addressing the lawless corruption of the Supreme Court, I think this is necessary a better Court could overturn this decision, but the danger of a President imbued with the power of a dictator at the whim of the Court is too great and must be explicitly rejected in the Constitution itself

a good way to alleviate concerns about Bidens debate performance / age *and* concerns about court overreach would be for Team Biden to schedule a short TV speech on it and give a firebrand performance about what he intends to do about it just sayin

When you do something illegal, like a coup, have it retroactively made legal. Then it’s not illegal.
