The Irony Hand of the Law 0

At Above the Law, Joe Patrice looks at Donald Trump’s reaction to the Supreme Supremacist Court’s overturning his tariffs and notes the irony in Trump ‘s biting the hand that freed him.

Here’s a tiny excerpt from his piece:

What a difference a year makes, huh? Almost exactly a year ago, President Donald Trump rolled up on Chief Justice John Roberts after the State of the Union address, to effusively tell the jurist, “Thank you again. Thank you again. Won’t forget it,” heaping praise on the jurist for concocting an unprecedented theory of presidential immunity that helped Trump evade trial on his way back to the White House. On Friday, Trump called Roberts “a disgrace to our nation,” “swayed by foreign interests.”

Follow the link for Patrice’s take on what this means. Methinks his interpretation if more en point than that of most of the press.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).
