A few random thoughts on a May afternoon when the sun ought to be shining…
Not much reason to shine — or celebrate — with the news that the home of US Supreme Court Judge Samuel Alito displayed a “Stop the Steal” sign in January 2021 when Trump supporters were insisting falsely that Biden stole the election. Court justices are supposed to be impartial, neutral in their public lives; this is a disgusting violation of that. I wish the court would reprimand its own (and while they’re at it deal with the lifestyle abuses from Justice Clarence Thomas). Actually I’d like to see it rules that these justices have violated judicial codes of behavior and should be suspended or removed from office — or left outside in the village stocks.
My suggestion: Make Thomas pay all for the gifts he received including free trips and merchandise. Make Alito go sit in Trump’s courtroom every single day until he wants to throw up. Then let him throw up. Preferably you-know-where…*******

You have to admire Marjorie Taylor Greene. Well, actually no you don’t. And shouldn’t. Not that it matters. she caused a commotion in a House committee hearing this week when she started talking about non-related proposals then insulted a colleague (a female Democrat), refused go apologize, and generally comported herself like an entitled nitwit. Pretty close to accurate there, I think maybe.

Speaking of nitwits, Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz traveled to New York this week so he could sit in on Trump’s sexual misbehavior trial. I wonder if he’s just wanting an advance look prior to his own trial.

And of course I shouldn’t be calling legislators nitwits. Name calling resolves nothing and only weakens the discussion of the one calling out those names. Unless of course you are telling the truth. Especially about Justice Alito, who shuld be impeached before the weekend is out. And that’s not name calling.
