The writing is on the wall…

It is not a happy message.

Thank you to FOX and social media - you have managed to destroy the country just in time for its 250th birthday.

Sound decision, based on the facts presented?

Judge Kate Menendez, appointed to her judgeship by Biden in December of 2021, emphasized that her decision not to act immediately should not be read as signaling any view on whether the raids violate constitutional rights, as the plaintiffs allege. She said the issues are significant and will be weighed carefully as both sides prepare additional filings due later this month.

Maybe one of the Times’ reporters could ask the ever-reliable Trump gang how they think their lives will improve when radical scum protestors are locked up and no one is allowed to exercise free speech? Will it bring down the price of healthcare?

Last night, in a startlingly provocative social media post after another shooting involving a federal agent, deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche called the protests there an “insurrection,” baselessly accused Minnesota elected Democratic leaders of “terrorism” for “encouraging violence against law enforcement,” and threatened to “take whatever means necessary” to stop them.

But first, I’m going to have to find some federal prosecutors since I just lost six good ones because of my mendacity, lack of ethics, and total corruption. But just you wait..

Obviously this post last night was coordinated with Trump saying the same thing early this morning.
