All true, but I'm also annoyed at the waste of time. To me, the better PR move and with more likelihood of actually getting some legs would be to push a Constitutional amendment that the US doesn't recognize any form of immunity not explicitly authorized by Congress.

His critics, this idea seemed laughable. One even suggested he should go to the library and do some reading before trying to write papers on this subject. "And the question is 'Well, what do they think now?'" asks Parker, with a chuckle, adding, "they're all dead by now so it doesn't really matter."

Tell him the 2nd is the best movie because the woman goalie whose name I can't remember is vastly superior to Goldberg. And asking about Banks v Conway is a trick question because neither of them is played by Emilio Estevez.

I hope asking about the entire trilogy is a trap. Either 1 or 2 are defensible choices. But calling 3 your favorite should be an auto-block.

For you, me, and other engaged people where Trump is the only alternative, 100%. But "better than Trump" is a damn low bar to clear, and probably insufficient to convince a lot of unengaged people for whom the alternative is just sitting this one out.

He can't possibly be that stupid. He's done some dumb shit, but that would have to go down as one of the biggest political blunders of all-time, lol.

Some friends staying at that end of the hotel apparently heard some cops talking loudly outside their room complaining about how long it took to find the dude's head after he more or less dissolved in the bathtub. Sooo... maybe a different hotel next year 😬

Other hotel guests warned me to stay far, far away from all the cop cars to avoid the smell at that end of the hotel. So on the bright side, at least it isn't our neighbor? 🤷♂️

New worst hotel experience: lost water for several hours last night because someone on the other side of the hotel apparently died in their room at least a week ago with their water running, so OMI turned off the water to the entire hotel until they finished investigating. 😬

Epstein is the name everyone remembers, but it's not as uncommon as one would hope for there to be a Ghislaine Maxwell luring victims in. They just don't often get the press.

5yo has upgraded to lassoing 8yo with his 4yo cousin. 8yo is still being good natured about it, but I see how this day will end 😆

Am in Raton for a balloon rally. Somehow ended up on a 200+ acre ranch in the mountains, watching my brother's very intoxicated father-in-law teach my 5yo to lasso the trailer hitch on my brother's truck. Life is weird. But life is good 🙂🤠

A unified message of "yes, the emperor's outfit is in fact stunning" when anyone with eyes can see the emperor has no clothes and he isn't doing anything about finding any is not the most persuasive message Democrats could push, no.

I have listened to and transcribed the first episode of the Tortoise Media podcast series "The Allegations Against Neil Gaiman." This is NOT a certified transcript and should not be relied on for legal or journalistic purposes without confirming with original audio. drive.google.com/file/d/1Ql2b...

It would be an impressive legal knot for Roberts to tie himself into to make Trump absolutely immune, but we can still prosecute troops for following his orders that he can't be prosecuted for. I'm not saying Roberts isn't up to the task. Just that I'll be impressed by the legal backflips.

But I'm a big fan of your optimism that things will recover enough in the future for our grandchildren to look back on Roberts with the same perspective that we look back on Taney.

Which is damned impressive considering the reputation he'd been cultivating as an institutionalist trying to tame the most extreme impulses of some of his conservative colleagues. Then he decides to just leap into this shit show with both feet and lead the charge.

With all of the well documented abysmal media reporting out there, before we even get into the massive amounts of disinformation and straight up fabrications that care only about selling clicks, it is impressive how hysterical some people seem to be over "hey, I'm not sure about this source yet."

Canon when she finally issues a ruling in 2035: "Americans want presidents who look presidential even in retirement. Therefore, even though Trump was no longer in office when these acts occurred, they were still acts within the official duties of the president for immunity purposes."

What's the value in bothering to question the reliability of unknown sources spreading stories carried by no one else when the story reenforces my pre-existing world view? Is that a serious question?

Yeah, the allegations against Gaiman are thoroughly plausible, and I suspect that they'll end up being corroborated by some decent reporting at some point in the near future. But Rolling Stone on sex allegations? Especially when they're just parroting the original sketchy looking souce? Be serious.

Or just that people can and do bleed out from leg wounds too. The idea that shooting someone in the arm or leg isn't a use of deadly force needs to go away.

Exactly. And I didn't see a single person in that thread defending Gaiman. I saw "Hey, this is coming from one extremely suspect souce. Maybe we should be cautious with this." But apparently caution is offensive to some people 🤷♂️

Independence Day doesn't celebrate America. America as we know it took a few more years to found. Today celebrates rebellion. Today commemorates the day we decided we would never again be subject to an authoritarian tyrant of any title Fireworks in defiance of the state seem solidly in that spirit
