Trump now has a Rhodes scholar and Harvard Law grad who clerked for Judge Luttig and Justice Scalia
Had to go back and read this again. First time through, I read it as “jerked for”

Much more interesting will be the reasoning behind whatever decision they make.
Good reasoning perhaps might give structure to new laws that discourage authoritarian overreach like Trump’s. And likewise, I am curious if the conservatives will feel a need to construct a decision that defends the GOP’s drive to authoritarianism.
Whatever the decision is, it needs to be 9-0. Steve Vladek notes (link above) that the court does not need to expedite the case except to have a decision by the end of the term.
Kellyanne never changes… and she looks great! Props to her taxidermist.
I always pack extra underwear in my computer bag ever since I sharted on a day trip.
Isn’t Ross Douthat the “Dauphin” for that position?
Rafael Eduardo’s daughter is all of us.
They will not. It will just be a straight-up deferral to Congress’s section 5 authority to legislate the matter.
That could have some nasty impact.
Props to her taxidermist.
And her stone mason. Secret’s in the trowels.
She should hop into her electric vehicle & head straight for the shoemaker who re-did her face. It looks like those comedy/tragedy masks.
What’s wrong with that idiot Cruz? What stupid thing to say
“Some people are like Slinkies, they aren’t really good for anything … but giving them a push down the stairs still brings a smile to my face.”
They’ll have a majority absolutely
I predict 8-1, with Thomas dissenting
He may not be able to steal a shopping cart for that.
I imagine a homeless person with a free range cart will curb stomp him for trying to steal theirs.
Incidentally, comparing Rudy to homeless people is insulting to homeless people. Most of them (even the ones who are addicts) are harmless people who were marginalized to begin with and had one thing go wrong in an already tenuous existence. Rudy is a f*ck up.
My office is in our breakroom, so I’m pathetically relieved that people don’t microwave fish there!
WTAF? I mean, what is that even supposed to be? Mitch McConnell and his clones?
Yes, the Supreme Court will totally bail out trump in Colorado. And it will be unanimous.
I see three possible situations:
First the court overturns Colorado 6-3
Second Roberts decides to salvage a tiny bit of his reputation siding with the dissenters 5-4 as the court overturns Colorado
Third the 3 Trump appointees recuse and the court rules either 3-3 or 4-2 and since 7 justices don’t partake in the decision it’s moot.
John Oliver does an excellent takedown of Elon in Last Week Tonight. 30 minutes, but well worth watching the entire thing! It’s BRUTAL!!! And all true.
Biden campaign pulls no punches, juxtaposing Trump quotes with Hitler quotes
What’s wrong with Hitler?
I heard retired Judge Luttig talk about the decision on Stephanie Ruhle’s show the other night. He said the opinion of the Colorado Supreme Court would “stand the test of time. “ He also predicted that the decision would be affirmed 9-0.
For just the state of Colorado, or nationally? The courts will not want to decide on what constitutes insurrection every time this issue comes up again, in every state where it could happen.
And it will happen again. Maybe soon, when some of the J6 rioters get out of jail and run for office. So I’m betting on SCOTUS keeping Trump on the ballot and punting the issue to Congress. They have enough hot potatoes on their plate regarding Trump as it is. This is an easy pass.
