Writer, reader, attorney, old enough to be an old-school liberal and young enough to embrace progressivism. Passionate and occasionally foul-mouthed defender of democracy. Firm believer in the paradox of tolerance.

Kind of like when, nine months before Election Day, McConnell refused to give Garland a hearing for his SCOTUS nomination, on the basis that it was an election year. Then in 2020 they rammed Coney-Barrett through only a month before the election. Republicans love their double standards.

Has anyone noticed that on Jan 6, 2020 Trump said he couldn't call in the National Guard without it being requested by Nancy Pelosi but in 2025 he says he can send them anywhere he wants even when folks specifically don't want them and won't request them?

Seatbelts will do nothing here. What will is voting in Dems and insisting, by calling and showing up to town halls, that they hold repubs accountable for their myriad crimes.

"Defendants have also not shown that any of the protests have rendered the President 'unable with the regular forces to execute the laws of the United States.' ... Violation of the Posse Comitatus Act is imminent, if not already underway."

We have plenty of faith in vaccines. We have NO faith in that crackpot Kennedy or in the Trump regime.
