Retired lawyer, wife, mom to Dr. Nick, soprano. She/her. I have no use for Trump or his MAGA minions.

How big is the dog?
Where is this?
Robert joined in this dissent, but yeah.
Trump explicitly wants Netanyahu to kill everyone, and he wants to make a police state out of the US while he’s doing it.
How about genocide and resort plus masked goons kidnapping brown people off the streets of the US and disappearing them into foreign gulags plus taking health care away from millions of Americans plus dismantling aid to foreign nations plus extorting money and obedience from US colleges and media?
I never heard her say she wanted to get everybody out of Gaza to make it a resort. And we wouldn’t have a police state with masked goons kidnapping brown people off the streets here and disappearing them into foreign gulags if she had won.

There were two candidates with a realistic chance of winning. Do you think the Palestinians are better off with Trump as president than they would have been with Harris? Hell no. You’re trying to make yourself feel better for helping him win.
No, SCOTUS ruled that TRUMP can’t be prosecuted for official acts. I have no doubt they’ll find reasons why immunity doesn’t apply to non-Trump presidents.
Going to a travel agent to get plane tickets.
You need to read the 25th amendment. It’s not up to Congress. Only the VP + a majority of the cabinet can declare him incapable, and that band of lickspittles would never.
There’s nothing in that case about invoking the Fifth amendment.
What is the case?
News to me.
How can invoking the 5th be used against you?
“A deranged maniac impersonated a police officer and killed lawmakers but if you’re an immigrant be sure you immediately comply with plain clothes people who won’t identify themselves telling you to get in a van”, what a fuckin country
Isn’t there some name for when the military tries to remove elected officials?
That might get me back to the church.
this is Mohsen Mahdawi, the green card holder who was just arrested by ICE for rendition at his citizenship interview
Due process is a fundamental principle of our republic and the Declaration of Independence highlights the importance of an independent judiciary. Both are now on the line and I will continue fighting for them. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
I bet he didn’t even say thank you.
Wow! That means he recognized an elephant and drew a clock face!
I bet they sell coffee mugs in Grand Junction.

I think people reeeeealllly overestimate the role of trade and industrial policy in US dominance of heavy industry in the 1950s and really underestimate the importance of having dropped high explosives on every facility in Japan or Germany capable of manufacturing a ball bearing
Schitt’s Creek NC.
Nah, the Ratliffs are heading to Schitt’s Creek.
I assumed it was U of Hawaii.
I’m done for the day!
It’s ubiquitous!
Pretty much every sweet baked good, dessert, and drink.

That Cryptid Politics guy needs to go fuck himself.
I mean, April 1 post….

All the states did their own audits and they confirmed that the results were accurate. Polls before the election showed Trump was slightly ahead or tied with Kamala in all those states. He won those states because folks there liked what he was telling them.
I’m thinking of the 2028 Olympics in LA (theoretically).
Well, there’s a block.
Send everybody to college.
If someone can watch Dead Ringers with you and still stay with you, you’ve found your person. My husband did and now we’ve been married almost 32 years.
Too many people decided not to vote and too many people forgot how vile Trump is. Also too many people just couldn’t bring themselves to vote for the black woman.
They can’t even figure out how not to fire the people responsible for the security of our nuclear arsenal. How on earth could they figure out how to tamper with 50 states and countless counties’ votes?
Each state does its own audit. You can find the results online. I posted links to some of them in this thread.

We can’t let Trump and the GOP of the hook, but the 🐓 10 🐓 deserve a huge share of the blame because we expect better from Dems. Keep being a 🦁 for democracy!
We’re taking a vacation from our home in Denver to the Canadian Rockies this summer. We’re looking forward to giving out money to you Canadians. Not spending any money in red states anymore.
He’s very talented, isn’t he?
Yes. For example, replace STALIN with DOGE. "Man and wife sitting in their small meager apartment. Knock at the door. The husband says, 'That's it. The DOGE Purges have come for me. Goodbye My Love!'. He leaves, then comes running back up the stairs. 'Wonderful News, Dear! The building's on fire!'"
old Soviet joke for our times: Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesn’t buy the paper. One day the vendor asks what he’s up to. Guy says: “looking for an obituary.” Vendor says “those are towards the back of the paper, comrade.” Guy says: “not the one I’m looking for.”
Remember that other guy who did a moonshot to cure cancer? Older guy, good sense of humor, sane priorities? I liked him.

SSA already says it will take up to a year to implement the Social Security Fairness Act because there wasn’t a staff increase to do the work. This will slow it down even more. I’m afraid it’s going to be repealed before I get my back pay.
JFC.

Why don’t the Dems rent a big hall on SOTU night, put up some of their best speakers, open it to the public, and have their own program where they explain what Trump/Musk and the GOP are doing to this country? Maybe announce some actions? Take attention from that blithering clown!
Honestly, I could see that dipshit bringing back the draft. If that happened, I’d be out in the streets again.
Also who’s getting drafted nowadays? You’re welcome, youngsters.
I feel pretty good; how about you? I mean, except for, you know, all this.
Dude. I’m 71.
I worked for and donated to Biden, then Harris. I loved Biden and thought he just had an off night in that debate, but his utter disappearance from the campaign, post-election period, and now makes me think he has lost at least a step. That’s not the Dark Brandon we knew and loved!
Why?
I’m not sure Biden has the ability to speak out, but Obama, Bush 2, and Clinton sure do and they’re not that damn old. Where are they?
Does their oath to uphold the constitution (against all enemies, foreign or domestic) expire at the end of their term? I took a similar oath decades ago when I was sworn in as a lawyer and still feel bound by it.
I’m thinking if you look in Black’s Law Dictionary, a screenshot of this Trump proclamation accompanies the definition of “arbitrary and capricious.”
And an ethics rule or two.
I’m not sure this iteration of Skynet isn’t scarier than the Terminator one. This one is making us lazier and dumber and easier to take over.
Excellent question. He worked on a winning election decades ago - so what?
Hundreds of asylum seekers from around the globe are being trapped by the US in a Panama hotel where they'll eventually be sent to a camp in the jungle. One Chinese man said “I thought: America is a free country with respect for human rights. I had no idea it was like a dictatorship.”
That article is nigh into unreadable. Did CNN fire all its copy editors?
Yeah, please post a citation to the statute or opinion that says whatever it is you think you’re saying there.
I better get my refund first.
Fix your typo before you copy-paste this again. Also what makes you think she’s using “are” tax money?
I am an attorney. He is an idiot.
When do you suppose Trump will insist on renaming New Mexico?
It doesn’t say that! It says the death penalty applies to NON-DRUG RELATED CAPITAL CRIMES committed by etc.
I watched one with auto-generated captions. They weren’t very good but it helped some. I’d like to find one with transcription by a human.
I’m 71 and yep.
I’m of an age where I need subtitles to understand what they’re saying on tv but the folks who could hear and understand the show loved it, so now I’m going to see if I can find it on YouTube with captions.
Thanks!
It’s possible I had to change a word in that sentence after thinking a moment.
Who are you inviting, the King of England? My friends don’t care about my baseboards, or if they do, they’re smart enough to keep their yaps shut about it.
Nixon tried to use the CIA and IRS to go after his “enemies,” which included journalists and elected officials. He did a lot more than just break into a hotel. He also tried to obstruct the investigation into the breakin, withheld evidence from Congress, and got his admin’s officials to cover it up.
If we can flip the House, which is within reach, we can stop a lot of nonsense and start investigations.
No. We were furious at Nixon but never doubted that the legal system and Congress would rein him in. This time around I don’t believe that either of them will. I’m going to do everything I can to work in the midterms, try to get rid of my R representative, and reelect my D senator.
I’m on social media every day so I see their notices - but oftentimes by the time they post a notice, it’s too late. There was a big demonstration downtown yesterday and I never saw a notice, just the stories about it today.
Jesus, that’s terrifying.
“Legitimate” is the key word in that.
I’m a crappy organizer but I want to be organized by people who are good at it. I’m here when you need me, leaders!
