His estranged wife volunteered important information to the judge about his violent propensities. His lawyer girl friend denied they are in a relationship. Rhodes must be a really bad hombre.

Geeze. Beating kids when angry in the guise of “martial arts training.” Threatening spouse with firearm. Digging tunnels all through the backyard. Hiding stolen get-away cars out back. Buying tens of $K of weapons. One presumes, his children were going shoeless.

Yeah, he sounds nice.

Has anyone ever tried to build an escape tunnel? It’s a lot of work. And did the tunnel connect to his basement or something? Does that mean he had a hidden door to it? How long is this tunnel? does it lead to the nearby woods? Or did he expect the feds not to see him pop out of the ground in his backyard? It must really suck if Google maps snaps a picture while it’s being built. It would suck even worse if a couple of agents just hung out at the exit with a pair of handcuffs.

And Yale has been accommodating racist reactionaries ever since.

ETA: And let’s not leave off “promoting” racist reactionaries. Buckley really seems to have hurt their fee-fees.
