Nazis demand the right to free speech

And under our constitution they have every right to promulgate their worldview. The Jews, using the Blacks, Muslims, Illegals, Aliens, Humanists, Cucks, Dupes, Idiots, Libtards, Feminazis, College Students, etc. are engaged in a titanic struggle for world dominion, Nazis have every right to insist.

Under our laws they may say this shit in speeches, publish it, do whatever they want, short of shouting it as they are actually lynching a Jew, or directly inciting a violent attack. They can even pass laws to promote this view, if they have supermajorities in power. There is no law against being a lying, vicious, racist, hateful piece of shit and Americans have every right to spew their opinions in public or private, no matter how hateful and demonstrably false the basis for those opinions may be.

It’s as if the Founders knew that opinions are like assholes, and just because someone never washes his, he retains the same right to vent his heartfelt feelings as any other asshole.

My hat is off to Jack Smith for conceding this in his DC indictment of Chrumpie and charging nothing implicating the inviolable freedom to be a lying sack of shit, eliminating the defense his lackeys are still shouting 24/7 over every available medium of mass influence. In the court of public opinion, facts take a back seat to emotion, particularly rage. Courts of law, for all their flaws, prohibit and can punish lying under oath and make their rulings based on the evidence and defense presented (well, not all courts, Aileen Cannon’s is a bit different.)

An interesting question arises when an incendiary lie is promulgated by a $50,000,000 advertising campaign, and spouted over and over, uncontradicted, in social media and mass media silos, as tens of millions of dollars are raised from those convinced that the lie is true, and the lie inflames a whipped up crowd to riot and disrupt the functioning of our democratic government.

None of this shit seems that complicated. One party, the MAGA party (the endgame of supremely entitled fascist billionaires like Charles Koch and the patrons of Ginni and Clarence “Black Klansman” Thomas) has the full-throated support of every member of every American hate group, and millions more besides. They howl about how they are persecuted, White Christians with no education are the most persecuted group in American history, and the “liberal media” routinely apologizes by treating their grievances as semi-legitimate. If anything, ignorant white pseudo-Christians are victims of the Chrumps of this world, they are being mind-raped by the powerful people who point to Jewish elites (Hollywood, Soros, Globalists, City Dwellers), Blacks, Mexicans, Ecuadorians, Venezuelans, Muslims, Cannibal Pedophiles, etc. as the ones buggering them out of their birthright.

Makes me want to holler. Watching fucking Chrump’s current lackeys on TV spouting baseless “defenses” and more informed former prosecutors seeming to agree that, even though the defense is advancing no legitimate defenses to the federal crimes Chrumpie is charged with, that the DOJ faces an uphill battle proving “intent”.

Like maybe it was purely chance, and possibly on shaky legal advice, that Chrumpie twisted arms, launched dozens of baseless lawsuits, repeatedly lied about the election results, orchestrated a plan to have fake, sworn electors in every state he lost, participated in a scheme to have his VP count the false electoral votes to keep him in the White House, lied in an official statement on the night of January fifth that Pence would do so, repeated countless, detailed, incendiary lies at a pre-riot rally in front of the White House, where he’d built the impregnable wall Mexico probably paid for, whipped up an angry, armed crowd and sent them to the Capitol to stiffen the spines of “weak” (law abiding) Republicans in Congress, watching the riot on tv and tweeting another provocation to an angry crowd that had erected a gallows and was already chanting “Hang Mike Pence!”

All pure opinion and nothing but First Amendment protected free speech! says MAGA world. Biden just irrationally hates Trump and wants to steal another election from him! And Biden is as insanely angry as these ungrateful, vicious black women who hate all white people FOR NO REASON (etc.) Might as well argue with an angry two year-old or a pile of shit as try to engage with any of this in an attempt at logical persuasion. Now we just have to try to tune out the noise and let the courts sort this out based on the evidence presented.

Does it suck that Nazis enjoy virtually unlimited free speech? Kind of, but that’s the price we pay for our own freedom of speech. Fuck those hateful putos.

It’s all perfectly normal, folks

An openly corrupt former president (“how can he be corrupt, he did it all openly and honestly?”) moves to have the judge overseeing his federal trial in D.C. removed. What are his grounds? Plenty. She’s a woman of color, they all hate Trump, the Black ones are particularly nasty. She’s a woman, and you know how disgusting they are and how many irrationally hate Trump. She was appointed by an illegitimate president who forced patriots to organize the Birther movement. Trump was a top Birther. Therefore, she’s prejudiced against the MAGA martyr. All of this, to a solid 30% of the country makes perfect sense. How can he get a fair trial from someone he didn’t appoint?

Meanwhile, Florida man DeathSantis removes a Black female state’s attorney (Florida’s only) who was elected with 66% of the vote. Presumably she was critical of the enraged little fascist puke. Perfectly normal for anyone with the power to crush an opponent to do so, no matter what the grounds. The new normal that the Koch network has been pushing for for decades.

Also in Florida, the judge appointed by Trump after he lost re-election, the one who was overruled by a conservative appeals court and found to have abused her discretion, and made fatal mistakes of law in her over-reach to help her boss, continues doing her inexperienced best to help her benefactor Trumpie. Serious prosecutors wait for another fatal abuse of discretion before raising a challenge about the conflict of interest and appearance of impropriety (abusing her discretion and violating the law to help the plaintiff in the legally incoherent Trump v US) Aileen Cannon has repeatedly shown. The conflict is between her sworn duty to uphold the law, and fairly apply legal rules to the proceeding, and her loyalty to the former president who demands special treatment. That this Federalist Society star is perhaps the most inexperienced judge on the federal bench, having done only four trials and making serious mistakes in at least one of them, has nothing to do with anything.

And all of this, you know, is as normal as a good old-fashioned American lynching.

Here is the great Vandana Shiva with a few words about our normal world, where it is fitting and proper for five individuals to have more wealth than 50% of humanity combined.

Nice indictment

Technical problems (internet and phone service dead for a couple of days, thanks T-Mobile) prevented posting this the other day, but here you are.

The second federal indictment against Donald Trump contained many familiar elements: the continuing lies (which are not charged, so goodbye first amendment defenses) that were weaponized to fuel a conspiracy to deprive millions of voters of their right to vote and have that vote counted, as a hoard descended to violently take the Capitol, some intent on hanging Mike Pence, others calling for Pelosi, the now familiar horror of that day only happened because of lies the US does not contest Trump had every right to peddle. The lies are not the issue, the far-reaching conspiracy to use those lies to illegally cling to power is. There’s some good new stuff in the indictment. Here are a few:

With respect to the persistent false claim regarding State Farm Arena, on December 8, the Senior
Campaign Advisor wrote in an email, “When our research and campaign legal team can’t back up
any of the claims made by our Elite Strike Force Legal Team, you can see why we’re 0-32 on our  cases. I’ll obviously hustle to help on all fronts, but it’s tough to own any of this when it’s all just conspiracy shit beamed down from the mothership.”

And, the old chestnut, the perfect call to Georgia’s Brad Rafesnsberger:

The Defendant said that he needed to “find” 11,780 votes, and insinuated that the Georgia Secretary of State and his Counsel could be subject to criminal prosecution if they failed to find election fraud as he demanded, stating, “And you are going to find that they are-which is totally illegal- it’s, it’s, it’s more illegal for you than it is for them because you know what they did and you’re not reporting it. That’s a criminal, you know, that’s a criminal offense. And you know, you can’t let that happen. That’s a big risk to you and to [the Georgia Secretary of State’s Counsel], your lawyer.” 

Ouch

Co-conspirator 4 is apparently Jeffery Clarke, American Eichmann. 2 is Eastman, 1 is Rudy,

The Deputy White House Counsel reiterated
to Co-Conspirator 4 that there had not been outcome-determinative fraud in the election and that
if the Defendant remained in office nonetheless, there would be “riots in every major city in the
United States.” Conspirator 4 responded, “Well, [Deputy White House Counsel], that’s why
there’s an Insurrection Act.”

I was gratified to see one of my favorite lines from Trumpie’s pep talk at the Ellipse right before he sent his angry mob off to peacefully protest the steal of the election.

The Defendant also said that regular rules no longer applied, stating, “And fraud breaks up everything, doesn’t it? When you catch somebody in a. fraud, you’re allowed to go by very different rules.” 

Finally, after exhorting that ”we fight. We fight like hell. And if you don’t fight like hell, you’re not going to have a country anymore,” the Defendant directed the people in front of him to head to the Capitol, suggested he was going with them, and told them to give Members of Congress “the kind of pride and boldness that they need to take back our country.”

Then there’s this curious bit where the quote could only have come from one of the most spineless homophobes in government, the man with the fly on his head during the Vice Presidential debate with Kamala Harris:

On January 1, the Defendant called the Vice President and berated him because he had learned that the Vice President had opposed a lawsuit seeking a judicial decision that, at the certification, the Vice President had the authority to reject or return votes to the states under the Constitution. The Vice President responded that he thought there was no constitutional basis for such authority and that it was improper. In response, the Defendant told the Vice President, “You’re too honest.” Within hours of the conversation, the Defendant reminded his supporters to meet in Washington before the certification proceeding, tweeting, “The BIG Protest Rally in Washington, D.C., will take place at 11.00 A.M. on January 6th. Locational. details to follow. StopTheSteal!”

Context is crucial

Without context, the most idiotic, lying claim can fly, since there is nothing to really measure it against. Every single legal proceeding against the insane former president is a hoax, a witch hunt, a political hit job, yea, illegal partisan election interference, motivated by irrational hatred of the greatest man ever to be president of the smoldering carnage of this once great nation.

With context, well, that kind of broad, moronic claim can be easily seen as the idiotic manipulation it is.

I love the context for the superseding indictment in the documents case that former FBI agent Pete Strozk provided in about a minute. The day after a draft subpoena is sent to Trumpie’s attorney the obstructive frenzy begins: attempts to hide requested documents, destroy servers, delete surveillance video of lackeys hiding documents, deceiving his own lawyers, causing one to sign a false statement about retained documents. All starting right before (and after) the subpoena for the surveillance video was served on the Orange Polyp.

How’s that for context (and consciousness of guilt), Trumpie? Well, done, Pete.

Weaponizing the air we breathe

You wouldn’t think it possible to weaponize something like sensible health precautions during a deadly plague. It was very easily done here in the land of the free and the home of the brave. Wearing a mask, at government demand, was turned, for tens of millions of free citizens, into a tyrannical indignity calling for armed resistance. The Covid vaccine the otherwise negligent president, to his credit, fast tracked, became, as soon as he was out of office, a hated injection of wokeness that would turn you into a transsexual.

It turns out that anything can be weaponized. I saw this recently with a small group of old friends after a couple I was very close to felt humiliated by what I’d witnessed between them. They share a characteristic with everyone who must always be seen as right, perfect and correct: they went to war to win the hearts and minds of the others and make sure I would never be believed. Life, to the sort who must always be right, is a constant and total war where no prisoners may be taken. All critics must be thoroughly discredited and silenced, on pain of unbearable shame.

The charge of weaponization is a great weapon, it turns out. If you are inclined to believe somebody you will not question their claim that someone who criticizes them is a fucking liar. You see how smoothly this works? I confide in you how hurt I was that my close friends maliciously lied about me. I did nothing wrong, they attacked me viciously, continued to attack, blaming me the entire time when all I tried to do was make peace. I’ll provide a few truthful examples, to cement my lies. You will be all sympathy. Unless – they got to you first with a convincing story.

Note: these motherfuckers will always get there first. A lie is halfway around the world while the truth is just putting its pants on, as it’s been aptly put. Maybe it’s shoes truth struggles to put on, while the lie is wildly boogying its way around the world. You get the point. Tell the story first, make your version definitive, lament the awful truth, grieve, be consoled. The end.

On that note, the corrupt political appointee who enabled a corrupt president to skate for obstruction of justice and his campaign’s 140 instances of collusion with a foreign power, now using the weapon of his bad breath to criticize the man he fought so doggedly to corruptly protect. The clip is short and sickening, as this “gutless pig” finally speaks truthfully.

Trumpie seeks another writ of mandamus

He had his lawyers file papers in Georgia Supreme Court to force the Fulton County DA to stop her criminal investigation, remove her from his case, and suppress all of the evidence she has gathered, forever. To seek this extraordinary relief his lawyers had to argue that he has “a clear and indisputable right to the [extraordinary] relief requested” and that there was a serious error in the court below not granting this extraordinary relief.

There was no error and the extraordinary relief requested is only available if there is no other avenue to justice available and several conditions are all met. None of the conditions have been met. Trumpie caused another completely frivolous set of legal papers to be filed, wasting everyone’s time with vexatious delay, using the court as an offensive weapon.

To understand how ridiculous Trumpie’s request for a writ of mandamus is, see the dissent in MAGA Judge Neomi Rao’s erroneous ruling granting Mike Flynn the same extraordinary relief, to which he was also not entitled. Rao was appointed by Trumpie himself to fill the smelly seat on the DC Circuit Court of Appeals recently occupied by the supremely entitled, gassy Boof Kavanaugh.

In her highly deferential opinion, Rao states the law she is about to ignore (before being roundly reversed on appeal):

For this court to grant a writ of mandamus, “the right to relief must be ‘clear and indisputable’; there must be ‘no other adequate means to attain the relief’; and ‘the issuing court, in the exercise of its discretion, must be satisfied that the writ is appropriate under the circumstances.’” In re Cheney, 544 F.3d 311, 312–13 (D.C. Cir. 2008)

Here is very detailed description of the corruption of Trumpie’s first attempt to get Flynn’s guilty plea thrown out. It contains the dissent’s excellent description of what is required for a writ of mandamus and why none of those factors were present for Flynn. No matter what his new attorney, Sidney Powell, or corrupt religious blowhard Bill Barr had to say to the contrary.

Unfortunately for Trumpie, judges are still constrained by the law, until they reach the Supreme Court, of course. Even then, they cannot always wipe their asses with the Constitution. They need carefully constructed Federalist Society-hatched fact-specific cases, lawsuits brought to selected Federalist Society judges for particular outcomes. When these selected cases make their way up to the Supreme Court, where the majority, if sufficiently partisan, may wipe their collective asses with the Constitution. Trumpie’s desperate, frivolous filing is not such a case.
