I totally agree. I hope Mercan goes that direction
Some of the evidence presented was from when he was president. That’s at least the angle his lawyers are going for.

From the Sotomayor dissent, which is joined by both Kagan and Jackson: Today’s ruling “reshapes the institution of the Presidency” and “makes a mockery of the principle . . . that no man is above the law.” The decision “gives former President Trump all the immunity he asked for and more. Because our Constitution does not shield a former president from answering for criminal and treasonous acts, I dissent.”
The President of the United States is the most powerful person in the country, and possibly the world. When he uses his official powers in any way, under the majority’s reasoning, he now will be insulated from criminal prosecution. Orders the Navy’s Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune. Organizes a military coup to hold onto power? Immune. Takes a bribe in exchange for a pardon? Immune. Immune, immune, immune.
Sotomayor does not use “respectfully” with “dissent” here or at the end of her dissent, which concludes: “With fear for our democracy, I dissent.”

It may be useful to defend the 2nd amendment now, to galvanize a portion of the population. But when it’s no longer useful, they’ll clamp down hard on that too (just like Reagan did when the Black Panthers started arming themselves in the 80s)

Wow, that was an interesting read there! It seems like he may have been an influence on the character “Brother Justin” in the Carnivàle show on HBO.

Alcoholics often smell bad, and going through withdrawals will make him extra cranky too.

Utah has some of my favorite places earth. It’s almost painful how beautiful it can be. It really is a shame what the government there does.
The EPA has been claiming high ozone levels in Colorado are due to Utah coal plants (who don’t have scrubbers on them).
Utah’s legislature agreed something needed to be done and set aside $2 million — for legal fees to sue the EPA and avoid the extra cleanup.
