We do not fully grasp how damaging the SCOTUS’ presidential immunity decision was. What we know is it was a disaster and the huge damage it has caused is being compounded daily. That is because the result is a collaboration between corrupt justices, a supine Congress and a demented President.

Meanwhile, Lorenz excused Republicans for doing much more unethical funding of their media creators. The hypocrisy is blatant. Finally, people believing her keep bringing up Gaza. But BTC has a long history of discussing Gaza, and it’s not entirely approving of the DNC. I trust BTC more than Lorenz.

Lorenz made wild claims without any evidence and sometimes outright lying. BTC wasn’t keeping it a secret, he was talking about Chorus for months. But instead of admitting she lied, she’s being manipulative and accusing everyone else of lying. She deserves no credibility.

Furthermore, the group funding Chorus, 1630, also funds another group that pays Lorenz. So if Chorus is unethical, so is the group Lorenz accepts money from. But while it’s dark money in that donors aren’t legally required to be reported, 1630 voluntarily reports donors.

Taylor Lorenz wrote a hit piece about the group Chorus. She claimed it was a secret, that it restricted what creators could say, and that it was DNC controlled. None of that is true. Instead, Lorenz is a narcissist angry that she doesn’t control the narrative and was fired for poor journalism.

And if you don’t want them to feel obligated to constitutional boundaries, good luck. That never ends well. That’s what you’re supposed to learn in history.

Obama governed in a constitutional system. He didn’t have powers to force the Senate to do anything. He could persuade individuals if they were willing, but from Lieberman to McConnell they were not. And he only had a cooperative House for two years.

Last year after the trainwreck debate and before Kamala became the nominee, a guy in New Hampshire wrote lyrics about how Jimmy Carter was eligible for nomination and set it to “John Brown’s Body.” And Jimmy Carter still would have been a better president than the current White House occupant.

You can always call him what I do; Cheetodust Dingleberry. A mass of shit that’s coveted in orange stuff that’s seemingly impossible to get rid of entirely.

If asked to not do that, just imaging whatever pose Gonzo would do, and adjust accordingly.

Suave pose from Gonzo the Great.

*Child abuse being a real issue, but nowhere similar to a resemblance of what QAnon claims it to be outside of Jeffrey Epstein and his good friend, the current White House occupant.

Don’t forget the leftists who latched onto the lie that Chorus affiliates can’t discuss Gaza. They use Gaza as a rhetorical device the same way QAnon uses child abuse. They don’t do a damn thing about the actual issue, but aggressively use it to discredit everything and everyone.
