I gotta say that people are having a lot of trouble distinguishing cognitive decline (Trump) from age-related changes in expression (Biden). Biden is elderly and talks like it. Trump literally does not have preserved reality-testing

Listen to the Biden interview. Its 15ish minutes of Biden talking extemporaneously perfectly well. But like several other public events over the last several days, this is getting brushed aside because the narrative that political news media wants to go with is set.

on the very day the Supreme Court's conservatives said 'we know best' and put themselves in charge of complicated agency decisions one of the geniuses confused nitrous oxide and nitrogen oxide. So they had to have a do over. Not exactly an auspicious start.

“Frisk’s campaign said that he was exercising rights under the Second Amendment, which allows armed home defense, and the Third Amendment, which prohibits forcible quartering of soldiers in your home, the penumbras of which right clearly extend to allowing you to expel aggressive strippers.”

When I got a new gastro I told him I was diagnosed with IBS, but that just means you don’t know what’s wrong with me. He just laughed and agreed it’s true. Diagnosed with UC a few years later after a bout with giardia made me crazy sick for months.

this is one of his most insidious proposals: On the first day of his second term, the campaign has let it be known, Trump will sign an executive order “to withhold passports, Social Security numbers and other government benefits from children of undocumented immigrants born in the United States.”

Trump thinks a judge whose daughter donated $25 to a Denocratic candidate ought to recuse in his case, but he believes a SCOTUS justice whose wife cheered on the 1/6 coup (Alito) or even helped push it (Thomas) can be impartial in 1/6 trials. OK, sure.

It sure would be comical if Samuel Alito had recently published an opinion in which he expressed strong feelings about flags and wrote that passersby viewing a flag flying over a building would naturally assume the flag conveys some message on the owner's behalf

One addition here that looks learned is keeping counter protesters separate. As tensions rise, this seems critical to keeping protests non-violent. Most of the most troubling videos seem to stem from not doing this.

The bottom line is it is plain as day for everyone out there that you don’t have freedom from consequences for the dumb ass shit you decide to do in public. Nor do most of us think you should be free of consequences. His post is rooted in stupidity, but it’s still extremely offensive.

The left has spent at least the last 6 years getting people fired for being proud boy, Maga, racists. Mostly based on posts other people made of them. This kid was dumb enough to go and post this shit himself. I feel bad for him because the university has clearly failed him in his education.

Also, all the conservative justices seem poised to suggest it’s unreasonably to provide a former president with the same due process provided to millions of people detained pre-trial.

I found this the most offensive arguments, Alito, with Robert’s chiming in, arguing grand jury is no
protection. Besides that Alito thinks he is a Fox commentator looking for laughs, is there one case where they have raised these concerns for a regular person.

I found the grand jury ham sandwich analogy to be the most offensive. How many people are being detained pre-trial on the grounds a grand jury is protective and Alito literally makes jokes at the idea it’s sufficiently protective for Trump.

We have the most aggressively pro labor and anti monopoly power White House since at least LBJ if not FDR, and when SCOTUS deciders that regulations are illegal later this year it’s going to be taken as proof that Joe Brandon doesn’t care, and not that normie libs were right about the court in 2016.
