Yet more projection.
It’s Trump and the GOP and the whole right-wing media jungle who are constantly stirring shit up, using violent rhetoric, and actively opposing any attempts to do something about America’s disastrous gun culture.
He’s sowing wind and blaming others for the whirlwind.

Straight out of the fascist playbook, yet again. I suppose it’s updated with the awareness that the corporate media will mostly just repeat what you said, without also pointing out that what you’re claiming the other side is doing is actually what you’re doing.

Sounds like a great event but the guest list made me sad because it reminded me that Nichelle Nichols has passed on.

At that point, I don’t see why the Administration can’t just say “no.” The Supreme Court has no enforcement ability, it’s just nine people in robes. It relies on general agreement in the integrity and sanctity of the legal system for its decisions to be respected. Once it demonstrates that it itself is destroying that integrity, whence comes the obligation to abide by its decision?
Would it be a Constitutional crisis? Yep. But that ship would have sailed already, anyway, at the hands of the Court, not of those who resist its coup.

So that means my insurance will only go up 36.5% next year??? Is that really the point he’s trying to make?

So if King Charles sends an invasion force to New England we should just let him have it?

We all know that trump appointed Judge Aileen Cannon, presiding over trump’s classified documents theft trial, is in-the-tank for trump and would be awarded an appointment to the Supreme Court etc. But the direct Clarence_Thomas-esque pay-off was always a bit unclear (“she’s doing it for future pay-off, maybe?”) well, now this, from Propublica:
Judge Aileen Cannon Failed to Disclose a Right-Wing Junket
Cannon, whose oversight of the Donald Trump classified documents case has garnered widespread criticism, has repeatedly violated a rule requiring that federal judges disclose their attendance at private seminars.
…
Cannon went to an event in Arlington, Va. honoring the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, according to documents obtained from the Law and Economics Center at George Mason University. At a lecture and private dinner, she sat among members of Scalia’s family, fellow Federalist Society members and more than 30 conservative federal judges. Organizers billed the event as “an excellent opportunity to connect with judicial colleagues.”A 2006 rule, intended to shine a light on judges’ attendance at paid seminars that could pose conflicts or influence decisions, requires them to file disclosure forms for such trips within 30 days and make them public on the court’s website.
It’s not the first time she has failed to fully comply with the rule.
In 2021 and 2022, Cannon took weeklong trips to the luxurious Sage Lodge in Pray, Montana, for legal colloquiums sponsored by George Mason, which named its law school for Scalia thanks to $30 million in gifts that conservative judicial kingmaker Leonard Leo helped organize.
aaah an “independent” judiciary…
