Justices Roberts, Kavanaugh, & ACB all assisted GW Bush’s legal team in the dispute over the 2000 presidential election results.
The 4th was their colleague, Clarence Thomas, who joined the Supreme Court majority halting a recount & was appointed by GW Bush in 1991.
25 Years After Bush v. Gore, Supreme Court and Election Law Still Feel the Fallout
The 5–4 decision started a long slide in public approval for the court, accentuated by a widening partisan gap.

TLDR is a common and entirely justifiable approach to time wasting clickbait media.

As these days the lede is frequently six feet under and the headline is just flat wrong.

Inverted pyramid? What's that?

I consider the decades when we trusted the news companies to tell us important things and basically be honest about it..

Those years were a bit of a dream.

Red pill time, as far as that topic goes.

Ah, the classical theory of Genetic Slop. Proven true in ancient texts and numerous tribal councils.

Nice of someone to blur the names. To protect the subjects from the classical social corrective techniques of Ridicule and Ostracization.

There are serious people who defend Garland still. I was influenced by them and attempted the same.

In retrospect that Garland was a Republican at heart seems obvious. Mueller too.

The Republican "Law and Order" brand is such BS. The DOJ and FBI is too heavy w em.

I hope that changes.

Very Russian.

Epstein was charming.. old Chomsky probably getting low on his narcissistic supply.

To me it's clear Epstein intentionally muddied the waters he worked in by charming every public figure he could.. even Stephen Hawking.

I respected Chomsky a great deal. Now he supports Russia, to some extent 🫩

It needed to changed so that some midtier manager could get noticed, and so some development lead could have a win.

You might not have noticed, but Noam Chomsky is not what he used to be.

A shadow of his former self. His mind is decaying.

It's true, but I wish it was simpler and more plain.

Cause the fools were fooled.

TDS was invented as an insult against those who saw what Trump really is..

And it was so weak and ridiculous, like being whipped with a pasta noodle.

The most transparent case of psychological projection ever!

Reason this war is so important is all the places around the world where Russia deliberately stirs up war and conducts sabotage.

US not pure in this regard, but Russia is in a different category.

"Asking for peace" is a tactic as well.

As emotionally logical as it is to suppose Trump will destroy US standing forever, one fact will remain in opposition.

340 million people. Third largest nation on earth.

But sure, US deserves ostracization right now.

I do.

So bizarre how many don't even know.

Sure.. I don't have a whole lot to say about that, cause a lot of polls are like wish lists to Santa.

Sure, people want it but most of the time the pollster doesn't bring up cost or effort required.

This is awful and wrong and must stop..

it has a very similar precedent.
