Hey Lawrence, I'm watching you tonight and was a bit surprised when you said that Hillary Clinton said what she said about "deplorables" in a private event.
I very clearly remember her calling Trump's MAGA followers deplorable's during their public televised debate.

Look at this & listen, feel!
These ICE Gestapo thugs are abducting anyone who appears Latino/non-white.
Even citizens.
Most are bounty hunters getting paid per precious mom, dad, daughter or son.
So the Nazis contracted to kidnap people don't care about the h'll/harm they are causing!

The republicans never do anything for anyone, let alone those who voted for them.
No Tax on tips passed the house, maga as usual doesn't have the whole story, it only applies IF you itemize on your tax return. But nobody that makes under 30 thousand itemizees their tax returns.

It can't just be a degradation of the system in general. It needs to be targeted specifically at red districts and even at red individuals - and they need to see the alternative.

It's time to start seriously thinking about stripping modernity from red districts in the United States. Close down hospitals, turn off the internet, shutter any high tech industry, etc...
If they are going to declare war on civilization, let them understand what it means.

What's up with Justice Jackson? She started making her mark and speaking out early, and some of her dissents are so pointed Kagan and Sotomayor don’t even join them. The far right is out for her, and even Republican justices are getting snarky.

One of the internal traditions of the Court is “collegiality.” First, you’re there for life, so you may as well get along. Second, issues come and issues go, and an ally in one case is an opponent in another. Third, the Court thinks of itself as a stately institution, hence decorum matters.

All of which is well and good — in ordinary times. It’s akin to members of Congress calling each other “the distinguished gentleman” or the “distinguished gentlelady,” to maintain decorum and avoid events like the caning of Senator Sumner.

What if we are in a time when a billionaire-funded scheme has spent decades trying to pack the Court with billionaire-agreeable justices, so as to “capture” the Court in the sense of “regulatory capture” or “agency capture” — and what if the billionaires have finally succeeded?

What if flotillas of secretly-funded amici curiae appear before the Court and sing in conspicuous harmony, and win with conspicuous frequency, and the Court makes little to no effort to enforce its own rules about amicus disclosure about their financing and coordination?

These are all unseemly things to discuss, indecorous, and not at all “collegial.” But if they are true, should they not be discussed? How much mischief happening in plain view in the courthouse should a justice ignore in the interest of “collegiality”?

Justice Jackson has begun looking at patterns, and noticing what types of parties tend to win, and which tend to lose. She has noticed procedural discrepancies.
