Finally, we get a really hopeful sign from the President. Until now, I've been sickened by his talk that seems to me to equate anti semitism with outrage over the slaughter of Palestinians.

If this latest pronouncement forces Netanyahu to stand down, it's a very good thing.

Yes, it's way late, but still a good thing.

Why is the Judge coddling Trump? If he acts like a 6 yo, he should be treated like a 6 yo.

"I don’t want to embarrass him,” Merchan said. 😲

I'm so sick of our criminal justice system giving this clown unfair privilege.

Behold, a little light is shining in the darkness. I trust there are others hidden from view, who may also find the courage to shine.

And as the light grows a path leading up and out of the cave becomes visible.

We are witnessing our criminal justice system abandoning its credo that "no one is above the law". Instead they have yielded to political influence and personal fame.

It's shameful how Trump is allowed to manipulate everyone and everything.

The media are bending backward and turning into pretzels to avoid the elephant in the room.

But when the history of this time is written, it will say Trump was held above the law. He was allowed to corrupt his NY State trial by lying and pressuring witnesses, jurors and court officials in flagrant violation of normal procedures and the judge's written orders.

Good morning CoSo!
I hope that everyone has a most beautiful day! 💛 🙏 ✨

I just finished "Unfrosted" on Netflix. It has a fabulous cast. Started off clever, imaginative, and very funny.

But the jokes got progressively worse, in poor taste, and just plain stupid.

The deal breaker for me was trying to do a parody of the Jan. 6th attack on the Capital as an assault of Kellogg HQ by breakfast cereal mascots. 👎

When did prosecutors and trial judges become so convinced that putting Trump in jail for contempt would surely cause all of the following?

* rioting in the streets
* a stock market crash
* Biden to lose the election
* the moon to fall from the sky

Cause I'm pretty sure it's not true.

It's more likely to cause:

* dancing in the streets
* a stock market boom
* a Biden victory
* a big, beautiful full moon

We should never be afraid of doing what's right.

I don't follow. Steve Schmidt regulary but have been impressed with him in recent years.

I am impressed that someone is thinking past this next election about how to make the country better.

And I think Steve has a lot of interesting and valuable observations in this video. It's mildly heartening to see members of the Republican party speaking intelligently about where we go from here.

Watching the. WHCA Dinner tonight. It just seemed the audience was subdued.

Many of the expected jokes from headliner Colin Jost fell flat and seemed inappropriate. Everyone realizes the country is not normal right now.

Biden's remarks began with expected jokes but finished up in serious campaign mode.

Guests had to pass Gaza protesters on the way into the building.

It's all another confirmation we are living in a critical time in history.

I’m reading a book about Hitler and the Habsburgs and this stood out to me:

“To him, immigrants were a cancer stealing his future and destroying Austria. Their (Habsburgs) social and economic success personally stung him. He came to believe that people of different races, cultures, languages, and religions threatened to marginalize Austria’s German population, making them a minority in their own homeland”

/Sounds exactly like the GOP and their dogwhistles about immigration and the border.

Speaking on behalf of the idealists in the room: -

AAAHHHHHGGGGGGG!!! 🤬😠 😲

The only backstop left to us is ensuring Trump does not win the election in November.

This will be no small task, given his continuing rule and law breaking.

History in the making.

I fear we are all watching the eradication of the fair rule of law in America.

By the time SCOTUS hands down the opinion, "law" will be applied based on who you are instead of what you do.





"Why would we have a situation in which we would say that the president should be making official acts without any responsibility for following the law? That's totally circular."

"It makes no sense."

~ Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson

When is the American public going to have enough of these Radical Right Wing SCOTUS Judges......

What a farce that SCOTUS is even hearing this.
The Constitution is a carefully constructed set of checks and balances. Except of course that the president has dictatorial powers beyond those checks and balances.
No
