You’d have thought that the attack on Zelenskyy in the Oval Office was the low point, but the charade with Bukele today was even worse. Now it’s back to the Supreme Court. Let’s see what happens there, and whether Abrego Garcia is still around to be returned upright rather than in a box. My expectation is the latter, and they’ll view that as compliance with the order to “facilitate” his return.

SCOTUS will do nothing about it. By the time, those nincompoops get around to doing anything, they will be made officially redundant and sent home.

The only law that matters is the First Felon’s. Far too many people are only too happy about it.

Just show to vote the way you are told go home.

Another productive day in making the lives of average Americans more affordable, more stable and secure, more healthy, more aware and knowledgeable, and much more filled with liberty and individual rights. Thank you, Sir.

I grew so rich that I was sent
By a pocket borough into parliament,
I always voted at my party’s call,
And never thought of thinking for myself at all.

I thought so little, they rewarded me,
By making me the ruler of the Queen’s Nay-vee.
