Extortionist Snake on a Plane. Clever way to worry conservatives into making him happy then… and onward.

Looks like SCOTUS gun lobbyists and monied proxies missed a step! Quelle dommage.

What’s everyone so upset about? Clarence Thomas just made a little oopsie. How is anyone supposed to survive on just slightly under $300,000/year? /s

I guess if the folks you hobnob with are multimillionaires or better, $300k is pauper’s wages, but come on now… That’s more than most pediatricians make, and I can assure you, we are not wondering where our next meal is coming from. Let us just say, my sympathy is limited.

I didn’t read the guardian article so don’t know if it has same info as the one below. It has a list of things that were ā€œfast trackedā€ and some seem way less urgent (not necessarily less important) than this to me.

Oh, for sure these ā€œgiftsā€ are taxable income. A one-time gift of some trifling amount of cash (10k?) is exempt because Congress can’t be arsed to index anything against inflation. Bequeathments below, what, $10M?, are exempt, but everything else is taxable. Which sucks for anyone getting student loan forgiveness, because it’s taxable.

But you know what? If what took down Al Capone takes down Clarence Thomas…Let’s DO THIS. Corrupt SOB belongs in jail, not sitting comfortably on the highest court in the US. Can his wife finally be charged for her role in organizing insurrection, too, please?
