quote:In 1995, Sen. Joe Biden offered high praise for William Barr, the once and future attorney general who has been roundly criticized by Democrats for his handling of special counsel Robert Mueller's report on the 2016 election. which seems like a smoking gun until you realize that biden does this to everyone. but the upshot is that no one in washington seems to personally dislike him. it's almost uncanny. biden never says anything negative about anyone, up to trump honestly

acejackson42 posted:All these chuds are going to crack-ping HARD when SCOTUS throws this Texas bullshit out. It's going to be something to behold. I like how they didn't even budge when they threw out the PA case. Like the supreme court throws out cases when one is better, instead of asking them to enjoin. The track record of failure means nothing to them, either; nor that there's literally false claims in the evidence. I don't know how they do it. You're not allowed to look at what's actually happening and draw any real conclusions from it, you are wedded to the narrative. You are gaslit all day every day. I wonder if any will snap out of it. I'm hoping at least some come to their senses.

This is nuts, because when Trump nominated Barr, that's when lots of people, including myself, first learned that Barr basically sandbagged the Clinton administration by initiating Whitewater investigations AFTER Clinton had won the 1992 election, but before he was inaugurated. Now Barr's pretty much doing the same thing with the Hunter tax stuff, which, may also ultimately be bullshit and just an excuse to legally harass a sitting president until something comes up. I mean, I get that Biden's spent his entire time in government as a glad-hander and back-slapper, but C'MON MAN!!!

LabyaMynora posted:I think there's a bunch of Republicans, including John Roberts, that really believed in unitary executive theory and felt that Nixon had got done dirty. It's weird but I guess to some people Trump has a certain charisma that can dupe some people, and maybe Comey thought Trump WAS the big deal, but having just typed that all out it occurred to me- Comey would've known exactly what kind of man Trump was, how much he was compromised, and that should have easily negated any "hero worship" as it were- I think Comey just hosed up, plain and simple. You may have a point regarding Barr having an axe to grind with the Establishment because of Nixon, and I'm pretty sure Roger Stone had some part to play in the process as well because of his ties to Nixon, so looking at it all through the eyes of revenge for Nixon from the grave, I mean- holy loving poo poo.

At a certain point, it is Republican orthodoxy that Nixon got hosed over. No one ever talks about it, but there it is. I mean, Republicans are still holding grudges over Bork's SCOTUS nomination (which was voted down by members of both parties!).

After the bloody urban vs. rural war is over the losers all get hustled into Dallas and we build a 400 ft wall around it. It'll sorta be like reverse Judge Dredd in that Dallas will become Mega-Derp City 1. Every February 23rd kids from Fort Worth hold a competition to build trebuchets that can fire poop into Mega-Derp City 1.

Nah I doubt he’s actually trying. He just gets a curated feed of lies telling him he’s a big strong winner, so when reality breaks in— like maybe a staffer suggests he figure out where to live in February— he just shrieks at Twitter and never checks up on it. Basically like a college student getting drunk on the weekend and shitposting on Reddit. Except he has nuclear codes.

lol i've lost track of how many times some politician has trumpeted around "TEXAS CAN VOTE TO LEAVE THE UNION", it must be in the thousands. it had a period of hibernation while trump was in office. its a total joke. this crackpot theory is trotted out when some weenie needs to score points with their golden corral constituency, it makes for some good headlines in between trips to the unlimited chocolate fountain. also our AG (the shitstack who filled that brief on behalf of the state challenging the election) Ken Paxton is a top tier piece of poo poo who will be going to jail eventually. hes been in a protracted lawsuit for security fraud, and recently upped the ante by firing like 10 top lawyers from his office in retaliation for whistle-blowing. i do appreciate that his election lawsuit generated a list of scum who publicly singed their names advocating treason, very handy for posterity.

JEB! https://twitter.com/JebBush/status/1337203239138242562?s=20 Kinda wondering why SCOTUS hasn't basically passed on this the way they did the PA lawsuit yet. Might be that they're just going to sit on it until after the EC votes on Monday, and then go, "Oops! Too late! It's moot! What can ya' do?"  "
