Keep up the good work, Benjamin.

Apparently Kugel isn't going to make it due to academic stuff.

Source? We could really use his vaginal wall muscles.

If he had any guts at all, he would have used Beyonce's music. Conclusion: total dud.

Hell, I'll shoot a child if the price is right.

How many people will those fewer than 50 people impact with their immune actions, though?

Also, my memory is a bit hazy, but I'm pretty sure it only takes 4 votes to grant certiorari. So merely granting cert is not an automatic indication of how the Court will rule. On the other hand, this Court sucks crap, so who knows?

I mean, name one politician you could trust with that power? 

There is no human that can go through what is needed to go through to be president that wouldn't abuse the crap out of that power. 

Something like 20-30 companies would effectively hold that same power immediately upon the ruling being made.  Is this not setting up the king for a day scenario, but forever instead of a day?

I didn't listen to the argument and don't know what the specific case issues are, but it seems to me like SCOTUS could easily avoid almost all the legal questions involved by just saying there is no way you can consider a president's conspiracy to undermine his own elected ouster to be an "official act" of a president. That is, quite possibly, the most ridiculous thing I could imagine any U.S. court ruling--much less the Supreme Court.

Trump's position is premised on the argument that he should only be subject to criminal prosecution if he is impeached and convicted by the senate, but if undermining the political process itself is part of the immunity then that qualification is meaningless in the hands of a tyrant, who could simply threaten/coerce/assassinate any who would seek to carry out impeachment proceedings. The democratic experiment would be over.

That may sound alarmist, but what I'm actually getting at here is "losing" this case only means that the Supreme Court declines to give clearer instructions as to whether immunity for criminal charges is ever an option for acts taken by a president. There's no way he gets out of facing charges for Jan. 6.

Unless Trump wins, I assume.

There's still the Georgia case.

It is indeed for my stabbin cabin, and I make no apologies for it. I like to shoot sporting clays, but am new to it and not very good. Decent at trap, but those clays are trickier.  I’m not a very big hunter but feel little remorse blasting birds, because they are descended from dinosaurs and I am anti-dinosaur. How I was raised.

I probably won’t get a new Citori. Will probably get a used “field” one so that it’s more useful regardless of circumstances.

Birds are also huge assholes, so this makes sense.

do smart phones ever appear in your guys' dreams? I can't think of a single dream i've had where there was a smart phone.

Yeah, I can recall. It was a very mundane dream.

Am I just being a little bitch in thinking that this presidential immunity thing might be super important and perhaps might be something that will eff this whole thing up?


I think there's no way SCOTUS will say that a President has total and complete immunity while in office (note that the documents case would still survive). However, I also said there's no way they'd overturn Roe and its progeny, so what the hell do I know?

Big Rig Biden has a good cadence for chanting. It's a bit ambiguous, though, regarding which Biden's rig you're talking about.

Going along with dax's hardworkin/hardscrewin theme how about "big Rig Joe"?

As our wise forebears were wont to say, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

6 weeks is a long time.

That depends on your perspective, man ...

So I guess they have selected a jury for the Stormy Daniels case. What is going to happen here, legal experts?

The jury and alternates were selected on Friday. Opening arguments were on Monday. A guy named Pecker (no joke) has been on the stand for the prosecution rough ridin' Trump. He worked/works for the National Enquirer and outlined the "catch and kill" scheme to benefit Trump's campaign in 2015/2016. The trial is expected to last at least 6 weeks. Slow going, thus far. They are only in court 4 days a week (no Wednesdays), and they seem to have relatively short days and long lunches.
