I sure wish Joe would start paying attention. I fear it may already be too late.

If democracy disappears next January, it will have come down to this, Biden's inability -- no, his stubborn and idiotic refusal -- to put the lives of the innocent first. And while Biden will have earned a defeat, the rest of us sure didn't.

On MSNBC just now, writer Andrew Rice said that while he was in court yesterday for ’s direct, he could see over ’s shoulder and Trump was editing the very remarks , , , et al ended up delivering outside the courthouse today. If true, that seems a very clear violation of the (“Making or directing others to make public statements…”).

Probably difficult to prove it unless you take Rice at his word, though.

> We can't have foreign assets who represent a hostile foreign government

Inferring motive for 112 people you don't know personally and for whom you have no objective proof of that motive is not defensible. The only thing you can infer is that you found the result objectionable. I'm all for speculative stereotyping, but this one's a grand leap.

Judge Juan has finally had enough of siccing his rabid disciples on the judge's daughter.

The gag order in Trump's New York election coverup case has been extended to include staff and family members of the Court and DA Alvin Bragg's office. Trump can (and surely will) continue making statements about the judge and the DA, but family and staffers are now off-limits.

@ampersine The NBC article says that actually, they didn't change donation policies at all. "This, in turn, ensures NCPPR’s shareholder proposal regarding LGBTQ donations will not be presented at Best Buy’s annual shareholder meeting in June."

I have no inside information, but I suspect one person at Best Buy was willing, but some higher-up then said, "Nope." Compare that filing to, say, https://corporate.bestbuy.com/at-best-buy-pride-is-part-of-our-business/

“William C. Robinson, a pastor working for Chi Alpha Campus Ministries in Corpus Christi, received 10 years probation after sexually abusing an underage family member [for years].”

Probation? Sounds about white… He molested his own relative and the court ordered him to take parenting classes! Unreal.
