U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez filed articles of impeachment against Supreme Court Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito for what she said was their failure to report gifts and refusal to recuse from cases in which they were conflicted. #politics

@DrJackBrown If you're ever in the mood for some light diversion I'd find this very entertaining. What could you say about the body language of James Spader playing Raymond Reddington on Netflix's Blacklist? His body language is extreme, adding to his performance. I seem to unconsciously understand though I know nothing beyond what I read in your postings.
Or if this is totally off base, let me know and I'd be glad to delete this.
Thanks.
On this July 4th I want to thank King Biden for his benevolence. He hasn’t tortured, molested & killed migrants. He hasn’t shot at peaceful protestors. He hasn’t withheld survival supplies from Blue states. He hasn’t destroyed the employment of 20 million people. He hasn’t imposed tariffs on everyday goods & supplies the common folk buy. He hasn’t eliminated worker safety regs. He hasn’t attacked Medicare, Medicaid, & Social Security. He hasn’t used the DOJ against America.
A benevolent King. ✌️
Note that under the new non-standards, if Congress decided to impeach the President, the President could just send in troops to disperse (à la Oliver Cromwell), imprison, or kill members of Congress so they could not go forward with the impeachment.
It's not preserving separation of powers when you give unchecked immunity, and therefore unchecked power, to one branch of government.
If Trump wins this election, he will appoint four new Supreme Court justices as a reward for this loyalty - citing a need to match the number of circuit courts in the SCOTUS.
How I wish Biden had it in him to fight dirty!
Following rules when fighting a hyena isn't ethical - it's stupidity.

Coincidence? I think not.

Trump lied about everything last night. As a colleague of mine put it, “He lied about the economy. He lied about foreign policy. He lied about his record. He lied about his crimes. He lied about women’s rights. He lied about immigration. He lied about his lies. He lied about our soldiers he disrespected. He lied about law enforcement attacked by his supporters. He lied about who he has had sex with. He lied about his racism. He lied about our country.”
There is a double standard here. People are asking Pres. Biden to step down but not for the Convicted Felon Trump, also old, who incited a revolt on j6. He suffers from dementia, a convicted rapist, & inveterate liar. Trump brought shame for all Americans term and still continues to do the same. Pres. Biden brought back pride and respect for the United States in the world stage and led the country with his stellar performance and one of the best president Americans ever had.

Trump wandered all over the place. True, he did it forcefully, but lying forcefully doesn’t make it true.
That is what we saw tonight: a stupid convicted rapist try to give a book report on a book he never read.
Women’s bodies ARE NOT the owned by the states. Yet Trump is under this mistaken belief (or lie) that everyone agrees that is the right thing to do. He even said the Framers agreed!
This constant spew of non-truths (“all the military love me and hate Biden”) was unchallenged.
