West: “brother Emiliano, though we should know better, I believe that the best way to get our denied revolution, is via President DeSantis.”

My dad did his studies at Union Theological Seminary. He became a Methodist minister, but left the church during his later years, as are 103 individual Methodist congregations in Kansas, all because of LGBQT issues. My dad was adamantly in favor of bestowing official duties upon gay clergy. The Methodist church was not, but apparently those 103 congregations don’t want to be Methodists anymore. They want an emphatic HELL NO from the church. They didn’t get it, so they’re saying FU and are going their own way.
I’m glad i’m not a Methodist anymore.
Those are my thoughts.
Oh, and Cornell West isn’t making any friends by declaring his candidacy for POTUS as a 3rd Party candidate. He’s doing more harm than good.

I thought so, although definitely not as lovable as Archie Bunker’s son-in-law.

Someone sure should.
The ‘tut-tut’ coming from the media is having no impact on this stupidity, so maybe some arrests and prosecutions could change things a bit.

For what it’s worth, WSJ now confirming Haberman that Jack Smith was at the meeting today.
I suppose it’s obvious at this point, but they also say his “legal uncertainty” will go on past the 2024 election.

I grew up OK. There are a lot of Native Americans there, the whole Trail of Tears thing. My dad’s side of the family had mentioned some NA blood in us.
There are very many wealthy NAs in OK, the oil royalty money. My racist red neck Uncle Carl started wondering why we weren’t getting any of the Indian oil money.
He hired a lawyer who hired a genealogist. Turns out there were 2 women who applied to be on the tribal rolls way back when. They had the same name. One was Native American, one was half-Black.
He stopped his lawsuit then and there, I can’t say what he said, it is vulgar.

Apparently Pat Paulson felt a fair amount of guilt for years after since he thought that his small margin of the vote in a couple of states could have led to Nixon winning.

Not really going out on a limb there. His relatively minor charges in NYC aren’t scheduled for trial until next March, this much, much bigger case with so many more potential things to look at ain’t getting scheduled anytime soon.

When the indictments drop, what difference will it make?
I disappeared from the blog because of the crap about the debt ceiling, a manufactured crisis, of course.
Not interested in the will he or won’t he any more. He had better go down. I believe, for the good of the country, he had better.

Just coming here now. Was in downtown DC today at Humphrey Building (HHS) and noticed things seemed more jammed up than usual. Maybe it was the fiasco at Justice. BTW, I saw footage of Dump’s Barbie doll lawyer stumbling out of the DOJ building in her red suit, $2000 sunglasses, and stiletto heels and almost falling down the stairs. And they make fun of Sleepy Joe!
Edited to add I am very excited about the Barbie movie this summer!

Honestly am ambivalent about getting a conviction when it comes to votes. If anything, a conviction before the election could galvanize supporters, whereas just having looming charges should at least make fence-sitters a little queezy about the whole ordeal and either stay home or show up to vote for the person not under criminal indictment for selling out our national security.

Nah. Most of them are sick of him. Even the money men don’t want to see him win again. He’s an effing disaster.

You’re more hopeful than I am. We still haven’t seen any challengers who can break through his base, and it’s that base which makes up too much of the republican primary electorate.
I’m still banking on Divine Intervention.
Otherwise flip a coin, because there’s an equal chance that the republican nominee makes it past the finish line because "papa joe’s too old’ or he didn’t give everyone a pony or whatever crap gets dreamed up along the way.
