Key Republican senators sharply criticized Supreme Court Justice Samuel #Alito after news reports showed an upside-down American flag โ a symbol used by some supporters of #Trump who challenged the legitimacy of Joe Bidenโs 2020 victory โ flying outside his home in 2021.
I'm so bone tired after another day of packing up that POD, so apologies for not replying, or simply replying with a "like." I can barely read, let alone type.
So, with that, I shall collapse, but not before posting another dopey #CountdownToCanada gif.
POD #2 for our furniture comes tomorrow, as do my twins, down from BC to help us! We leave in 5 days! #Canada ๐จ๐ฆ
Have a good evening. ๐ด
Pool report: At Boston fundraiser, President #Biden addressed #Trump's 'unified Reich' post:
"This is the same guy that uses Hitler's language, not America's."

@GottaLaff Canโt wait til every Rebecca seeks permission to be called Becky & every William has to get permission to be Billy at school. It is so very important to stick to the rules & paperwork!
7/ Re. the jury instruction for โunlawful meansโ: Judge Merchan rules that if the jurors find that Trump made or caused to be made false business records in order to conceal a conspiracy to promote Trumpโs election through unlawful means, the jurors can have different ideas about what those unlawful means are.
8/COLANGELO: All that the prosecution has to prove is Trumpโs intent to conceal another crime, not that the crime actually happened.
COLANGELO: The key point here is to advise the jury that there has to be some unlawful means but they donโt have to unanimously agree on the unlawful means.
Two of the highest-profile candidates on the ballot: the judge and lead prosecutor in the #Fulton election interference case. Judge Scott McAfee is asking voters for a full, four year term on the bench, while DA #FaniWillis wants a second term #Georgia
โAt one point the judge cut #Giuliani off as started going into a meandering story about the history of alleged threats that have been made against him. "I don't want to have to mute you," the judge said.โ#legal#Arizona
โBiden administration was poised to send about a dozen detainees at #Guantรกnamo Bay to Oman for resettlement last year, but it abruptly halted the secret operation amid questions from Congress about security in the Middle East after Hamas attacked Israel, according to administration officials.
None of the prisoners have ever been charged with crimes, and all of them had been cleared for transfer by national security review panels.โ
@Wileymiller@GottaLaff The people pushing this want there to be more poor people. Desperate people. People without options, who canโt afford to demand equality.
Unwanted pregnancies are a twofer. Impoverish two generations in an instant. The mother right now. And in 18 years (fewer in Arkansas), the child and its siblings will be ready to take their place in the natural order: as part-time, minimum-wage workers.
