@jdhattin Neat is damn near digital crack. I almost wish I never started using it. But now I just factor it in as part of the conform process because I NEED it. ;-)
Justice Thomas violated 28 USC 455, requiring any "justice" to recuse when his or her "impartiality might reasonably be questioned" or his or her "spouse is known by the justice to have an interest that could be substantially affected by the outcome" https://t.co/QPfCGCefLA
Yet again, the media has not learned its lesson from 2016. The NY Times writing about an antisemitic, anti-democratic, election denying, pro-insurrectionist, QAnon believer as if she were an underdog sports figure returning from an injury.
It’s very peculiar that NYT reporter Maggie Haberman is consistently the first person to uncover the latest ‘bombshells” within DJT’s inner circle. It’s also peculiar that she withheld vital information from the public for 400+ days so not to spoil her “tell-all” book. Peculiar.
For decades punditry has drained the life-and-death nature of politics and reduced it to a game to be judged only by “wins” and “losses.”
The fates of the most vulnerable have always been treated as fodder. That callousness will only get worse as this crisis intensifies.
my eternal advice to democrats is that no matter what you do, republicans will call it socialism and attack it, so just do the maximum possible to help the most people and don't hobble it out of the starter's gate in an attempt to "get republicans on board." that's all.
Obvious lies, followed by contradictory lies, followed by more contradictory lies, followed by yet more contradictory lies, the NYT calls "shifting explanations."
If you'd have told me in 2016 that this would all end with an FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago to recover highly classified documents about our nuclear arsenal that Trump was presumably selling to our nation's fiercest enemies... I'd have totally believed you.
Imagine if politicians, former politicians, and would-be future politicians used their platforms to demand this kind of rigor for everyday law enforcement as it’s exacted on the poor and powerless.
