Debunking de Bunk 0

Robert Reich debunks the de bunk that Trump’s dupes, symps, and fellow travelers are telling themselves (and others).

He addresses five specific lines of bunkum. Here’s a bit from one entry (emphasis in the original); follow the link for the rest.

4. Trump has received preferential treatment because of who he is.

Trump’s defenders complain about a two-tiered justice system.

They’re right about that, but not in the way they claim. Trump has been given special privileges most criminal defendants would never get.

Reich goes on to remind us that

The principle that no one is above the law is only true if we make it so.

Just Another Day at the Office 0

Mark Meadows attempts to wiggle out of the Georgia indictment by claiming that conspiring to undermine an election was just another day in the life, at least for a Trump toady. Here’s a bit from the report at Above the Law:

Unlike his former boss, who spent the past week screeching into the ether about “PHONEY FANI WILLIS,” and the “perfect perfect phone call,” Meadows and his lawyers immediately sprung into action. Within 24 hours, they filed a motion to remove the case to federal court, alleging that the conduct at issue was part of his official government duties.

The most important thing to understand about the bill that gave us Alabama’s latest Congressional map is that, for the most part, it’s a lie.

Base Desires 0

At the Kansas City Star, Melinda Henneberger argues that Donald Trump poses a much greater danger to the survival of democracy than most politicians and pundits are willing to admit. She presents compelling evidence and I commend her piece to your attention.

One bit, in particular, caught my eye: an explanation of why, despite Donald Trump’s long and documented history of duplicity and venality, despite his fomenting an insurrection, despite his demonstrated disdain for the rule of law, his base continues to support him with such fervor and enthusiasm:

A few years ago, an evangelical Republican I know, not a Trumper himself, told me that his explanation of Trump’s appeal to so many of his friends was that he got away with so many things they couldn’t. They vicariously enjoyed watching him cheat and talk smack, while also telling themselves that it still was virtuous to cheer him on because he was going to overturn Roe.

Intimidations of Immorality 0

I am not a lawyer (though I once thought I wanted to be one, until I met some law students and decided I never wanted to be that uptight), but, to the best of my understanding, attempting to intimidate potential witnesses and members of a jury pool is viewed less than favorably.
