I’ll say it again. I am no fan of the Donald. <\/p>\n
But I am no fan of lawfare deployed against the will of the People either, whether against Julian Assange, Stephen Donziger, Alexi Navalny, Nelson Mandela, the January 6 Shaman, John F. Kennedy, or myself. <\/p>\n
When the Colorado Supreme Court voted to ban Trump from the state’s ballot, the vote was 4-3. All seven members of the court were appointed by Democrats and presumably anti-Trump as well. But the four in the majority were all educated as lawyers at Ivy League schools. <\/p>\n
The three that legally said, “This is stupid and wrong”, which it is, went to local and less prestigious law schools. <\/p>\n
Does that tell you anything? Maybe?<\/p>\n
Today all nine<\/em> Supremes, the liberal women included, agreed with those three. <\/p>\n Darlings, my vote, and yours, will never count for nearly as much. But you should cast yours in good faith in November, and hope like hell it isn’t counted by a Diebold machine, or lost in the fog of war … I even promise to forgive you if you vote for that babykilling dementia case or whoever they prop up in his doddering place. We all make mistakes. <\/p>\n The real threat to democracy isn’t Raging White Rurals. It isn’t the Orange Man. It isn’t too many of the People being dumb or too pissed off to see straight. <\/p>\n It’s the minority that went to good schools, speak well and dress well, and somehow got convinced that their way is the smart way, the right way, the American way. <\/p>\n Rachel Maddow is way more of a threat to actual democracy than Joe Sixpack, or Joe Rogan. <\/p>\n Anderson Vanderbilt-Cooper never met a war he didn’t like. <\/p>\n Every single Senator is ugly and wrong and evil in varying degrees, and carries the blood of Palestinian and Iraqi children on their well-manicured hands. <\/p>\n In the unlikely event that there is a hell, to hell with them all. <\/p>\n
