Lawyer, home cook, dog parent. I like to read books, and pretend that the current world doesn’t exist.
Not going to read this piece, but is it safe to assume this is a rehash of Johnson v. M’Intosh?

There needs to be a “the more you know” type PSA that tells people how many billions are in a trillion. I think the public, by and large, really doesn’t know the difference.

Most journalists have, at most, a B.A., and are writing for people who, to be generous, read at the eighth grade level.

Joe Walsh is not a serious human being. Not really sure why anyone listens to him.

Sure. Governors have no ability to command federal troops. I think what you mean is that they were not requested. That’s true, and important. The issue is whether they are, as of now, violating Posse Comitatus. Since they haven’t done anything yet, the judge is reluctant to rule ahead of time.

I’m well aware of the situation. What I’m saying is that they have not been deployed to the city of Los Angeles yet, and are not yet performing any duties. That’s why the judge was reluctant to address the marines (as opposed to the national guard) at this point in time.

The marines are undergoing training, and are expected to arrive in LA tomorrow (Friday)

The lawyer for California just acknowledged in court this afternoon that the marines have not yet been deployed.

They haven’t been deployed yet. They have been mobilized, but they are not yet in LA.

Those were NG troops.

Those people are cowards. They should be treated with scorn, contempt, and mockery.

It’s just math. Most people are not very bright, educated, or informed. You need at least some of the fool vote to get to an electoral majority. Just don’t let them take control of your party…

Next time, you should check out Arthur Bryant’s. Great burnt ends, and lots of history.

In theory. Not so much in practice.

Patel is a very common Indian surname, so probably not.

That’s not true. There are many Black evangelicals, and there are white evangelicals, like the late president Carter who are sincere Christians. Many white evangelicals have, however, been quite disappointing.

That’s a pretty common belief among North Georgia evangelicals.
