So… was originally really feeling ambitious and going to write 3 different stories, but sitting in the ICU with my 80 year old Aunt and waiting to hear what’s up from the Doc. (She’s asleep finally, so i have a minute).
First: Was reading Abbreviated Pundit Roundup, thanks ChitownKev, as always, and saw the bit from Matt Stieb of NY Mag that after not paying anybody a GD cent for their legal bills, like EVER, DJT is hosting a $100,000 a plate fundraiser for Rudy’s legal bills on Sept 7. Ummm...Witness Tampering? After being instructed by who knows how many judges to avoid discussing any number of indictment cases with co-conspirators, witnesses, etc and specific bans on how he may interact with said peeps, this looks like straight-up tampering. Will he pay Jenna Ellis’ bills next? How bout Mark Meadow’s legal bills? Etc ad nauseum.
Second: From the same “Roundup” story, ChiTK quotes Mark Stern from Slate talking about Moms Demand Action looking for pre-1900 gun restrictions cause Bruen decisions requirement. Where is the evidence that anyone pre-1900 was considering 2nd Amendment issues concerning AR-15’s, AK-47s, BUMP-STOCKS, etc??? SURELY the f-ing Founders didn’t have these in mind, so yeah, Originalism. and why 1900? Ok, if you want to do a mass shooting, the Founders say you have to cart out your Gatlin’ Gun. If we’re gonna get Original on this b*tch, all these guns should be illegal. Also maybe Planes, Trains, and Automobiles cause u know, the constitution doesn’t literally guarantee a right to FLY THROUGH THE AIR TO CHINA, does it, Clarence, among other things...see: Your Marriage.
And Third, but possibly my favorite- The HALLOWEEN CONUNDRUM. While i happen to live in the thankfully liberal and rather lovely state of Delaware, many don’t. Sorry losers. My husband and I were trying to decide on what kind of Drag to pull off for Halloween and i had a come to Jesus moment...what if I DIDN’T live here??? What if i lived in f-ing FLORIDA where public drag is illegal cause some kid might laugh at my fake boobs and go home with a bag of candy and the question to their RWNJ parent(s), “hey dad im gonna wear fake boobs next year for Halloween, am i gonna get arrested and sued by Moms For Liberty?” and if so, will the FL legal system fine me and send me to jail???
“Just Asking Questions” as they say
