Re: Trump Charged With 37 counts of Espionage, Obstruction and related crimes

I don't think that is it. I think she thinks that she is setting things up so that Trump can win at trial. And while I have been all over twitter/X saying that it is time to go to the 11th, the order is so bizarre that I'm not sure it provides a basis for appeal that they can actually assert. To be ...

Re: Trump Indicted for Conspiring to Overturn the 2020 Election

Excellent article on presidential immunity, the limits thereto, and why it clearly should not apply to Trump.

That is an absolutely absurd "analysis" by CNN.

Donald Trump has never apologized for anything in his life. If we sink to his level, he will have won.

Re: US Supreme Court Discussions

Should the Solicitor General come out swinging and flatly tell the Court that Judge Doughty is a liar who should be sanctioned for manipulating evidence? No, because that won't make any real difference to the resolution of the case. She will instead focus on how the Fifth Circuit's analysis deviate...

A Conspiracy Theory Goes to the Supreme Court: How Did Murthy v Missouri Get This Far? To be sure, there are important questions about th...

Re: The (no longer) much too early 2024 election thread

That's certainly how certainly elements of the liberal twitter-verse are spinning it. To me, that is clearly not what Trump was saying (though what he was saying was ridiculous enough). However, he did follow that up with another all-caps rant about presidential immunity on Truth Social, saying that...

My third word was "noust." Has anyone ever heard of that word? Apparently, it is Scottish for "The place in which a boat is hauled up." But is it really an English word?
