SCOTUS
Why do the justices spend so much time asking about hypothetical future cases and how the law applies to them instead of focusing on the specific case before them? They usually don't. I didn't listen to every single word, but I heard probably 80% or more. My immediate reaction is they are looking f...

Assault on the Capitol (DC)
God is telling me to show up at her B&B without a reservation, knock down her fence, and let myself in through one of her windows. I should meander through her house for twenty minutes or so to pick a suitable place to say a prayer. Afterwards, leave like nothing happened, and spend the next co...

Planes and Boats and Trains. Wrecks!
Can anyone really make an intelligent argument about why Pete Buttigieg is at fault for the bridge strike?
“He’s in charge so it’s his responsibility “ is only true if he could have actually done something to prevent it, right?

January 6 Select Committee
First, is what they’re accusing Liz Cheney of actually illegal?
Second, if Donald Trump ordered the DC National Guard to be there why wasn’t it there?

According to the police, Benedict started the fight by throwing water at the other three kids. I have a hard time believing it was unprovoked. Therefore, there’s no way Benedict started the fight.
There’s also no way their death can have nothing to do with the fight.

Suranis is correct. I couldn't come up with the right word. They were ambushed, but that isn't always the case when it's one versus multiple. Or, is it? From The Independent : Ms Benedict told The Independent she arrived at the school to find Nex with bruises over their face and eyes, and with scra...

INDICTED (INDICATED) #3 USA v Donald Trump - Judge Tanya Chutkan - #J6 Election Interference, Fake Electors - Jack Smith
MAGAs are saying this sets precedent and now Obama can be prosecuted for drone strikes, Bush for war crimes, etc.
Except the ruling only applies to Trump and his particular situation.
It happened in a vacuum. There’s no such thing as precedent.

The President of the United States does not need the Capitol Police nor the Mayor of DC’s permission to deploy the National Guard. This is the response I got to that. “DC and the capitol are two different entities. The mayor is who decides if the presence of the Guard is warranted. And the majority...
