So @KatiePhang and I just discussed the gloom and doom on the “unqualified-judges” front. Let’s go behind the dark cloud and talk silver lining for a minute. Judge John Bates was appointed by George W. Bush. Judge Bates, in 2008 ruled AGAINST the Bush administration’s claim ...
of “absolute immunity”, the same bogus claim being made presently by Trump & McGahn. Judge Emmet Sullivan, appointed by George H.W. Bush has been kicking the...stuffing out of Mike Flynn, saying that Flynn sold out our country & rejecting Flynn’s baseless arguments trying to...
weasel out of his guilty plea. Judges appointed by Republican presidents have often surprised us, handling cases consistent with the law NOT consistent with the appointing president’s ideology. Regarding the “unqualified” judges, everyone needs to keep their eyes on them and ...
the minute they engage in judicial misconduct (and they will) the process to hold them accountable must be initiated. Oh, and one more thing - once we again have a law-abiding president and a law-enforcing attorney general, the FBI MUST perform a full and fair investigation of
Justice Kavanaugh’s confirmation testimony, in which we all saw him lie, transparently & repeatedly. Trump blocked a full and fair investigation during Kavanaugh’s confirmation process. The next administration owes it to the legitimacy of SCOTUS and to the American people to let
that investigation proceed to its conclusion and then take the steps necessary to address any perjury that may be uncovered. No turning the other cheek. No letting perjury bygones be perjury bygones. Crimes MUST be addressed if we are to move forward as a country and a people.
