1/
then SURELY FLYNN QUALIFIES FOR MUCH MUCH WORSE.
Course who gets charged punished & stripped of rank and benies seems to have more to do with who you know, or whose back you had and may still have vs not.
My point here is if the military believes those charges and penalities

to be meritorious surely Flynns illegal lobbying for foreign governm'ts KNOWN TO BE ENEMIES OF THE STATE AND WORKING TO OVERTHROW FED GOV QUALIFIES FOR FAR WORSE

@BwanaLawFirm @duty2warn It's my understanding (tho you'd know way more) that it's an impeachable offense for a SCOTUS nominee to lie to congress when being vetted for an appointment and if found to have merit that is grounds for removal. What I don't know and can't find is if any of the rulings

@BwanaLawFirm @duty2warn pertaining to case law they lied about could be reversed after the fact. I'd think despite any reasonable interpretation of questions asked during the current case, until a ruling over turning Roe v. Wade is handed down, there is no way to find impeachable grounds as the

@BwanaLawFirm @duty2warn ruling itself would be the decisive evidence. I also believe the SCOTUS 5 will stack the deck meaning Roberts (no one ever believes me when I tell them Roberts is positively diabolical but he is) will write the majority opinion in such a way as to appear to have arrived at a

@aspieleftist I had one of those too! But I'm not necessarily talking kids at home (0-18 yrs old). Surely no kid then or over 18 (and they are kids to me till about 30) ever badmouths their parents/grandparents or parents/grandparents generation; not to friends peers teachers colleagues
