Recovering FL Republican. Previously art and science daily, and now it turns out I'm just an anti-MAGA anti-DeSantis, troll. Known to hose Christian Nationalists with Bible verses. I have a hypocrisy trigger.

A substantial part of where we are is in fact directly on Roberts. It’s why he’s there, leading the Court with Rightwing decisions that coalesced the power of the Right. See Citizens United, Trump v. US. Roberts may well be unhappy that his legacy rivals Taney’s. Tough tacos.

I believe what he said was that Allred's campaign was mediocre. I have contributed to Allred's campaign. Don't be them, please.

Notable development in Fulton County's motion for return of election materials seized by FBI: The clerk of court, Che Alexander, seeks to join the case.

DOJ previously argued that the Fulton Board of Elections does not have standing bc the clerk had custody of the ballots.

Five days after Jeffrey Epstein’s arrest, federal authorities β€œdirected” NY law enforcement authorities to β€œstand down” their investigations related to Epstein, new documents released by the Department of Justice show.

I Caught POLITICO and the New York Times Laundering Pink Slime "News" How the sexist backlash to AOC and Gretchen Whitmer at the Munich Security Conference led me to a scammy "local news" outlet pushing a coordinated right-wing narrative

Interesting post about the coordinated anti-AOC smear campaign. It's 2016 again! Fake local news outlets on Facebook getting picked up until eventually it winds up in the Washington Post.

I was given a better term: Abrahamic. Hopefully this doesn't bring about some unforeseen, unintended, grievance.

I'm old(ish), married to a Muslim, and got a dressing down for using the term Judeo-Christian, because it is insensitive, and non-inclusive to Muslims. This from someone that's never stepped foot in a Mosque. Ah, the sky is blue, and twitter is worse. We endure.

Nails on a chalkboard, I can't watch him. I will, however, watch the clips of him going off script to excoriate SCOTUS, as the camera pans to John Roberts face.

2 things: one story goes that she was their newly minted judge, and they were big mad that she was drawn into the limelight so early. The other was that she was one of their choices, and other connections made her Trump’s picks. He wasn’t a Rubio fan back then.

These are FL rumors. We are a swamp.

I believe I shared with you when we were on X, that the skinny here in FL amongst the legal/political crowd, was that she is product of the old cocaine network, now legit, now donors, who wanted their own fed judge, and got one via Marco, who also has some incestuous ties. She lives in my hood.

Not defensive. I think we are quick to judge one another, when many of us have honest and good intentions. Being married to someone from a vastly different culture has taught me to look to intention, because even precise language can be fungible. Also, you dinged me, so I thought you'd want to know.

I'm older. And I'm also married to a Muslim. In my formative years it was a term that referred to Abrahamic religions. In no way did I intend for it to be exclusionary.
