John Roberts pretends not to know what Donald Trump will do with the immunity Roberts just gave him just like John Roberts pretended not to know what Republicans would do when John Roberts gutted the Voting Rights Act.

It’s really directed toward Kanefield. I have no issue with Marcy. Kanefield’s work has always been misleading to the lay public and I regard it as part of the reason we ended up here.

She won a Pulitzer for exposing how the country's poorest state spent federal welfare money. Now she might go to jail. "The rabbit's got the gun now," said a lawyer for former Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant, who is trying to force reporter Anna Wolfe to reveal her sources.

Keeping Trump out of the White House isn’t the only thing that needs doing and it isn’t enough to solve all problems facing the country & world but if it isn’t done then all those problems get exponentially worse in ways I don’t even know how to express and it scares me when people pretend otherwise

The 14th Amendment says if you were involved in an insurrection you can't be president. SCOTUS said they won't allow anyone to enforce that because of reasons they made up. The Constitution doesn't say the president is immune from criminal law. SCOTUS decided he is because of reasons they made up.

You can say Trump is a rapist because by definition he is. His supporters are fine with rape. That makes them shitty people. They can’t deny it. They’re cool with raping. Evil. The fact every headline about Trump doesn’t say “Rapist Donald Trump” is the media complicit in whitewashing a rapist.

Zionists love to talk about “Meretz” as an example of how Israel is a thriving liberal state. Meretz has 0 seats in the Knesset right now. “Merging into” sounds like a euphemism for “vanished.”

I had heard that Zionist synagogues, as if they were a microcosm of Israel, pay a ridiculous amount of money for security. What I didn’t realize is that it’s also fully reimbursed by the federal government.
