I’m so sick of having to beg and plead with this Court to do what it should already be doing. In exchange for having lifetime appointments and serving as an equal coordinate branch of government, at the very least it should embrace transparency at every opportunity, including live streaming.

Very well stated. Perhaps we will have our own Glorious Revolution soon enough.

Am I the only one who doesn’t see the irony in having a King read a speech on democracy to a former colony? Sure, enjoy the pomp and ceremonies, but as an American it cuts a little too close to what the current occupant of the White House is striving to become.

btw, Democrats don’t say that, the US Constitution says that. It’s clear that Miller has never read or understood it.

If this is what they’re willing to do to stay in practice, they have no business practicing law.

Fear is what the forces of Trumpism want. Don’t give that to them. Fight back instead. #Resist. Call them out!

I look at those agents involved in these atrocities and wonder, who are they, what are they thinking, how do their consciences allow them to be parties to this, or are they “just following orders”? I think my faith in our federal institutions is being shaken to its core right now.

Completely deceptive misnomer, #Medicare Advantage should be called Medicare Disadvantage. It ropes seniors into an HMO system that exists primarily to collect money from Medicare while denying healthcare to its enrollees. Even if you’re not yet eligible, you should learn about it and demand change.

Well, at the very least she’s agreed that she’s guilty of the crimes, which is what her acceptance of the pardon means. It’s not like she’s been vindicated or has triumphed in any way. She’s still a criminal, just not serving the time.

How many millions does he need? If he doesn’t resign, then the former First Gentleman reveals that it’s all been a sham all along. Absolutely disgraceful. He and by his extension his wife, the former Vice President, lose all credibility and claim to leadership.

Not at all. My friend in the chat is not the MAGA supporter. It’s his friend who is.

Of course this is true. But MAGA remains undeterred, as seen in this text chat a friend of mine had today with his friend, a MAGA supporter.
