    I am an institutionalist, so I have not favored Supreme Court reform / expansion. Until now. This Supreme Court is WILDLY illegitimate, and political. Ending the rule of law, ending female bodily autonomy, ending the capacity to have a modern functioning government. Too far.

    Oh man. I enjoyed your book, when I was really young. But now I've learned that your values are gross and immoral. Lost all the respect I had for you. People who only care about being rich are bad people.

    Doesn’t matter. The gov’t can’t throw up impediments to speech and defend itself by saying “well, we only made it really hard. We didn’t make it impossible.”

    You mean... the government has prevented you from speaking back to it... which is unconstitutional.

    If there is no price to be paid for trying to orchestrate a coup d’etat the republic will not long survive these outright attacks.

    Days after calling for a military coup, Michael Flynn tells Jeanine Pirro that governors should "not certify these elections" Flynn also calls Sidney Powell “America's guardian angel of justice” mediamatters.org/michael-flynn/…

    As an Iraq veteran, maybe you can forgive us for casting a skeptical eye at government claims of evidence and causus belli. You guys squandered our precious credibility on matters of war way back in the Bush days.

    You guys are still using “confronted” in the headline instead of “assaulted,” huh?

    But it's a good habit of mind to be able to provide sources so you don't traffic in bullshit.
