This ‘sanewashing’ of Trump’s statements isn’t just poor journalism; it’s a form of misinformation that poses a threat to democracy. trib.al/ppYwm6a

The people screaming we’re getting paid by Soros are being paid by Putin.

I’m past point of understanding why coverage of most abnormal candidate in US history is so bent on normalization. But there’s no argument anymore. They’re doing it. Even tho I’m sure they recognize disaster will befall their country if he’s elected. The why utterly baffles me.

400 officers in Uvalde couldn’t stop an 18 year old with an assault rifle. Secret Service in Butler couldn’t stop a 20 year old with an assault rifle. SROs in Winder couldn’t stop a 14 year old with an assault rifle. JD Vance: More security will fix it. apnews.com/article/jd-van…

Yeah, why teach people to read and write when a computer can do it faster? Why teach people math when calculators exist? Why do anything a machine can do, really, it's just how things are in this late stage capitalist dystopia? Go. Fuck. Yourself.

As a defense attorney, I do agree with this. NEVER TALK TO THE COPS, PERIOD. I mean, these folks are going to get got because there is a paper trail of all these payments being made, but still, don't make prosecutors' jobs easier.

Sooooo, how much did you get paid Little Marco?

Ex Parte All The Time Favorite Franklin story: Walking into town, an older Ben chatted with a young lady. She teased him about his weight, saying, "Mr. Franklin, what would you think of that weight on a woman?" "Madam," he replied, "an hour ago this weight *was* on a woman."

Anyone else beginning to think that NYT might also be on the take from Russia?

Okay, fellow attorneys, have you have ever fucked with a pro se in court just because you could?

Ex Parte All The Time I was 04 and we only had one scheduled that I can remember except they didn't do anything but the "lockdown" part and just had the teacher run down the halls throwing candy. One kid got a black eye. It was that little of a concern.

Ex Parte All The Time I live in a state with very strong gun laws and I don't even remember my kids doing shooter drills when they were in school (they are both in college now) because people aren't allowed to own assault rifles here. It doesn't have to be a fact of life. Gun laws work. #VoteBlue

Ex Parte All The Time The sweet spot between Cold War duck and cover drills and Culture War duck and cover drills.

Ex Parte All The Time Completely off topic but I was shooting a film yesterday (as I continue my quest to retire from lawyering in order to be a full time actor) and one of my costars happened to be a witness in one of my old murder cases so that was fun

Protip for any Cook County attorneys who have GALs on cases--apparently, a few folks have been getting appointed who are not on the approved list. Just had our GAL get discharged for this reason--I am shooketh. Make sure your GAL is on the approved list!

The legal system's response to Trump is like telling a bank robber that he will be held accountable *unless* he successfully robs another bank

Ex Parte All The Time I fuck with cops doing copsecutions sometimes.
