Who would think that taking a civil insurance lawyer who has never prosecuted a criminal case and making her the top prosecutor against a former FBI director with the best attorneys and demanding she prosecute on flimsy charges in her first week in office would end up as world-class embarrassment.

I hate that like the internet has nuked people's brains, I saw someone bitching about "why is the President ALWAYS! like 90!"

Obama was in his 40s, so was Bill Clinton, W was 54, just in the last 10 years have Presidents been old (and people could have voted for the 59 year old)

Re: Kelly

They're about to give a man who would be an unbeatable presidential nominee a huge moral platform and I don't think they've thought this through.

Comey: "I'm grateful the court ended the case against me, which was a prosecution based on malevolence & incompetence... I was inspired by the career people who refused to be part of this travesty. It cost some of them their jobs, but it preserved their integrity, which is beyond price"

Seth Meyers has joked Donald Trump was so enamored of Zohran Mamdani that he somehow made asking to be called a “fascist” sound like a racy chat-up line.

To anyone who thinks it’s an “exaggeration” that the rule of law is in danger…

U.S. Senator Mark Kelly is being investigated for the “crime” of telling people not to commit crimes.

We’ve fallen far.

True tale: A Baltimore police colonel called a rival at 3 a.m. from a crime scene: "Leon, I got you now. You fucked up. You wrote "POLICE" backwards on the front of the EVU truck."
"Eddie, that's so it reads correctly in a rear view mirror."
Long pause.
"Aw Leon, you got an answer for everything."

If the President doesn’t want to be called a Russian asset, perhaps he should stop acting like a Russian asset.

My podcast today delves into the Setagaya Family Murder, one of Japan's most perplexing unsolved cases. What makes it stand out is that—instead of fleeing after committing a horrific mass murder—the killer remained in the victims' home for several hours, displaying behavior that was truly bizarre. 🔎

Aa handful of complicit sycophants does not count as "many great legal scholars." Also, they urged people to disobey illegal orders, which is part of their training and required by law.
