Avery Brooks was so good, a shame it seems like he retired.

I want to be retired when I am 75 years old too.

Just wait till HG Wells Time Machine comes true and a bunch of almost blind underground mole dwellers predate upon the idiotic surface dwellers who never think past the needs of today. Oh.

Oh look, another article in 2024 about that one episode that takes place in 2024. What an original think piece.

It didn’t “predict” anything.

I don’t understand why executive privilege is even a thing. It is an absurdly authoritarian concept that the president should be immune to oversight.

But Neal Katyal, a prominent lawyer who has argued cases before the top court, predicted on X (formerly Twitter) that it will not take up the case.

"Trump's argument is so weak and the Court of Appeals decision so thorough and well done, I can see SCOTUS voting not to hear it," he wrote.

Legal analysts said the methodical nature of the appeals ruling, laid out over 57 pages that are dense with court citations and historical references, sent a clear message.

"What the Court of Appeals said, very politely and very dryly, is 'You're not even close, Trump'. None of these arguments pass the laugh test," Patrick Cotter, a former federal prosecutor, told BBC News.

I can already smell Trump squirming.

Put a fork in her, she's done. The GOP has finally and totally embraced Trump and dictatorship.

FMT99 ,

Why settle for crypto-fascism when you can have the real deal?

One down, one to go.

Illuminostro ,

His poison will live on long after he’s dead. He’s throwing fucktons of money at politicians, conservative friendly universities, conservative “News” organizations, Youtube right wing grifters, you name it.

The fact that the obscenely rich control our politics in 2024 is depressing.

    As someone who has made campfires, I can confirm that blowing on a fire gives it oxgen and makes it bigger. Goshdarn windmills blowing on the whole State as part of the librahl agenda to make wildfires around north America.

    How do they always spin it like that? The obvious answer for these jesus freaks should be that god really hates texas and wants to scorch it.
