And Let's not forget about the other Deplorables

This could because Thomas is such a lousy jurist ...or that he is more afraid of Trump than history.

Or, because his wife, and likely himself, were complicit co-conspirators in the insurrection, and he wants to hide the evidence.

The problem with this is that he would have known how the other Justices were going to rule so he has known that the records would be released no matter what.

I think it was just a grandstand gesture of support for Trump because either Trump Co. paid him for it or he sees the possibility of Trump's resurgence and doesn't want to be called out as an enemy of TrumpCo.

Maybe. But do you doubt his wife and possibly he were involved more than simply casual Trump supporter observers?

Ooops. Was that out loud?

^ It will be interesting to see how they twist that one.

Moscow Mitch could give a fuck, and it's not like there's any even mild surprise. There is no shame on the right. It'll just make the trogs like him better.

The laws spreading around the states by the GOP are meant to frustrate and suppress the minority vote. Sure, numbers are very good now, but if voting is secure and real fraud very infrequent... why the rush for new laws that are meant, at best, to make things less convenient.. to frustrate, in fact, voters in minority neighborhoods. God knows after a mass shooting, the same folks go to great lengths not to do a damn thing to greatly reduce the odds of other mass gun attacks. But for a relatively low number of real voting irregularities(including a number of Republican voters), nothing but the most expansive punitive laws discouraging those super high minority voter counts for the GOP. Slash drop boxes, greatly shorten early voting, greatly restrict if not eliminate mail voting, closing DMV offices in many districts(all of them minority heavy) so that hundreds of thousands are forced to use 1, likely counties away. Seems like they're sending a message loud and clear, and it sure ain't "Happy voting!"

Mitch could go fuck himself.

Oh, look:

Is Ginni Thomas a Threat to the Supreme Court? [New Yorker]

The claim that the Justices’ opinions are politically neutral is becoming increasingly hard to accept, especially from Thomas, whose wife, Virginia (Ginni) Thomas, is a vocal right-wing activist. She has declared that America is in existential danger because of the “deep state” and the “fascist left,” which includes “transsexual fascists.” Thomas, a lawyer who runs a small political-lobbying firm, Liberty Consulting, has become a prominent member of various hard-line groups. Her political activism has caused controversy for years. For the most part, it has been dismissed as the harmless action of an independent spouse. But now the Court appears likely to secure victories for her allies in a number of highly polarizing cases—on abortion, affirmative action, and gun rights.

Many Americans first became aware of Ginni Thomas’s activism on January 6, 2021. That morning, before the Stop the Steal rally in Washington, D.C., turned into an assault on the Capitol resulting in the deaths of at least five people, she cheered on the supporters of President Donald Trump who had gathered to overturn Biden’s election. In a Facebook post that went viral, she linked to a news item about the protest, writing, “LOVE MAGA people!!!!” Shortly afterward, she posted about Ronald Reagan’s famous “A Time for Choosing” speech. Her next status update said, “GOD BLESS EACH OF YOU STANDING UP or PRAYING.” Two days after the insurrection, she added a disclaimer to her feed, noting that she’d written the posts “before violence in US Capitol.” (The posts are no longer public.)

 

[TX-Beau]

Does a "transexual fascist" dress like a Stalin?

 

[rareboy]

Wow.

Transexual Fascists. I hope they dress like

 

[KaraBulut]

Wow.

Transexual Fascists. I hope they dress like

Well, they don't dress like....

 

[cabinfever]

Well, colour me embarrassed. JFK DID come back at the Arizona rally... disguised as Donald J. Trump!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

What kind of drugs are they taking?

The crystal meth crowd used to come up with some - uh - "interesting" stuff.

 

[rareboy]

Brandon Straka.

The fucker gets no jail time, 3 months house detention and 36 months probation.

He will remain a destructive force...although once it did emerge that his walk away campaign was just a front for Kremlin Bots.......I suppose he has lost his mojo.

[KaraBulut]

Because he looks like a wreck these days?

I keep wondering if staying so deep in the closet isn't going to lead to him spiraling into some drug/booze fueled breakdown now that he is literally at the end of his career. He was so stupid....he could have been setting himself up for media work after....but what sports network would touch him now?

Supposedly his homeless look was for the [strike]Gay Christmas[/strike] Hallowe'en costume he did 3 months ago. The holiday passed but the haggard homeless hygiene remained.

It's kind of interesting that he never looked better than when he had his male friend/live-in assistant, isn't it?

 

[rareboy]

I suspect it is just a bj in the stall of a bus station bathroom or paying for his sex at this point.

He could have been a leader. A hero of sorts.

But as we've seen this last few months, he is just a coward.

Am I getting this right? Is that Aaron Rodgers?

Chills up and down my spine - not the good kind.

 

[TX-Beau]

Were you unaware of the rumors? Aaron lived with that guy for like seven years, then when the whispers got too public, it was goodbye, bring in the beard, who he refuses to actually marry though they have supposedly been engaged like forever.

It would be far more tragic if Aaron wasn't such a raging douche.

Don't worry about Aaron, he can always go bend over for Troy, and Daddy will get him a job.

Beards! I think he's on the 3rd one... at least the latest one admits to being "bisexual".

Dunno what happened but since the friend/live-in assistant left him, he's looked more and more like he's rotting from the inside out.

 

[TX-Beau]

Ohhh I remember all that stifled closet case fury, my drug of choice was whisky, and yup, I was a raging douche.

It wasn't all that long ago that he was guest-hosting Jeopardy! and he looked quite the picture. How far he has fallen down the hill in such a short time.
