An awful lot of people who struggle themselves with the English language are complaining loudly and often ungrammatically about Bad Bunny not performing in English at the Super Bowl.

Hi, Pete Hegseth. Itโ€™s me. Army veteran, Judge Advocate lawyer, and law professor. Your vain and gross performance to our nationโ€™s military leaders succeeded only in proving your incompetence, dangerousness, and childishness. Youโ€™re a petty spoiled 7th grade boy without the sophistication or class.

Mitch McConnell is singularly responsible for the shape weโ€™re in. I wonโ€™t mourn his death when it comes. He used his nearly unprecedented power for his own interests and not the countryโ€™s. However, he most assuredly did have that power. The race for his seat, on the other hand, is simply pathetic.

My next appearance: This Sunday at We The People Palooza! Join Indivisible Louisville Kentucky, me, and others to resist and energize. Indoor and Outdoor stages, short and sweet speachifying, music, food, beer. What else could you ask for? Oh, yes, a functioning democracy. Weโ€™ll discuss . .

Former prosecutor here: The Indictment of James Comey is the unethical and unprecedented act of a corrupt, unqualified, and immoral stooge doing the bidding of an authoritarian criminal. Period. Any discussion suggesting thereโ€™s โ€œmore to thisโ€ or โ€œletโ€™s wait and seeโ€ is complicity and surrender.

TFW you wish your congressperson was as brave as basically any scientist or elementary school teacher.

I Will Not Tone Down My Rhetoric Political Art and Commentary

Written and published over a year ago. People ask โ€œwhat can we do?โ€ Their strategy is to silence us all by demanding the firing of a few. They canโ€™t fire everyone. They wonโ€™t fire everyone. It is is the obligation of those who can speak to do so.

Ceaselessly.

Hate speech is protected by the Constitution. Even if you hate it.

To everyone for the past 10 years who said โ€œit isnโ€™t really that badโ€ and โ€œour institutions will protect usโ€ and โ€œour better natures will prevailโ€:

You were wrong then. You are wrong now. And here we are, perhaps past the point of no return for a long, long time.

Forgive me when I ignore you now

Any candid assessment of the Supreme Court must now conclude that it doesnโ€™t serve the Constitution, or the people, or justice. It exists solely to serve Donald Trump and to enable and embolden American Fascism.

Iโ€™ve taught Constitutional Criminal Procedure and will again. Iโ€™ll teach criminal law in the spring. I practiced criminal law for over 40 years. Not just to defend the accused but also the Constitution itself, for everyone.

Hear this: The United States Supreme Court is compromised and illegitimate.

The beatings will continue until morale improves.

Youโ€™re right. Itโ€™s our fault. Just a difference of opinion. Nothing to see here. Move along, everyone. Also. Bible, or something.

This is the - and let me say this loudly - panel on DIVERSITY, EQUITY and INCLUSION among the political artists at our annual American Association of Editorial Cartoonists conference outside the nationโ€™s capital. Three days with some of the most courageous, talented, and caring people in the country

โ€˜Donald: Every day another gift from you. Youโ€™re the best, John.โ€

Yesterday his United States Supreme Court reduced the Fourth Amendment to (used) tissue paper as it applies - now - to many people and - soon - to you, too.
