Release everyone on simple drug possession and not only will there be considerable space to fill up but also the prison will become more equally diverse. Maybe???

If they really wanted 1776 Returns it wouldn’t have included someone named Tarrio but more like a Crispus Attucks though he was killed in the 1770 Boston massacre.

Someone remind me, who was it who was live tweeting from Congress about “1776” and where Pelosi was during the riot? Was it the treasonous idiot blond or the treasonous idiot brunette?

That would be the brunette.

The new election would have to be conducted … using paper ballots, with no absentee voting, and under watch by the National Guard.
The Constitution is specific about a number of conditions relating to elections and inaugurations. The time and date of the presidential inauguration remain among the most inflexible of these conditions. Then, consider the logistics of these demands. Correct me if I’m wrong – but isn’t this just plain nuts?

Truly a genius legal move to publish the plan in a defense legal filing and then argue that it was “not that bad.” So much for the defense that he was caught up in something spontaneous and was unaware of and did not agree to the plan beforehand. This is how you go from a confederacy of dunces to a criminal conspiracy.

He’s setting the grounds for his appeal*: incompetent counsel.
* Regardless of this possibly being a reality, I do not believe it is in any way intentional on his part.
