CNN columnist and MSNBC guest Dean Obeidallah; "At this point I LITERALLY view people who still support Donald Trump no different than the despicable, vile people who supported Bin Laden after 9/11." Even in the age of rage, that is LITERALLY deranged...
... With polls showing Trump continues to garner millions of supporters, this would treat a sizable part of the public as virtual Al Qaeda. thehill.com/homenews/campa… This type of extreme rhetoric only fuels the rage and deepens the rift in this country.
...Rather than try to understand the concerns of Trump supporters, many in the media prefer to demonize almost half of the country ...even declaring them as akin to terrorists.

It is no accident that, under this system, the first to go would be Clarence Thomas (on his 30th year) followed by Justices John Roberts and Samuel Alito when they reach the limit...jonathanturley.org/2022/07/27/reb…
...Even if the bill were able to secure a majority, it would face immediate challenge which could rely on a record full of self-defeating statements from the sponsors. They justify the bill as a way to get rid of the conservative majority...
...When the Court rules in a way that is approved by these members it is a constitutional triumph. When it fails to do so, it is.a constitutional crisis.

After a cancel campaign failed, dozens of Michigan medical students walked out of an address by Dr. Collier. The reason? She is pro-life... foxnews.com/us/university-…
...The walkout occurred despite the fact that the speech was not on abortion. The message is that, even holding pro-life views, means that you should not be heard on any subject.
...I commend the school in refusing to yield to the cancel campaign. Moreover, these students have every right to walk out, but they should consider what they are doing to intellectual environment at Michigan...

Schiff stripped away the pretense of subpoenaing Ginni Thomas about her messages to the White House. This is about her husband, not her support for the election challenges or what occurred on January 6th... jonathanturley.org/2022/07/24/sch…
...On a committee that was tasked with uncovering what occurred on January 6th, Schiff is now saying that the committee’s jurisdiction would extend to what the Supreme Court did a year later...
...That is more than a case of “mission creep.” It is radical departure from past practices and could create dangerous precedent as members use such committees to investigate jurists on the motivations or communications leading to their opinions...

Rep. Luria is setting up the eighth and final scheduled hearing to show that President Trump was derelict in his duties. Once again, it sounds more like a case for impeachment than the promised criminal case. jonathanturley.org/2022/07/21/a-b…
...The Democrats continue to quote Trump's speech while omitting his line to peacefully going to the Capitol: "I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.”...
...As I have said, that is not exonerating but the one-sided account undermines the credibility of hearing with many voters. Such facts can be acknowledged in context and discounted...

There are reports that the grand jury is looking at criminal charges against Hunter Biden for lobbying, gun, and tax offenses. foxnews.com/politics/hunte… While the grand jury may be at a "critical stage," the stage for a special counsel passed some time ago.jonathanturley.org/2021/10/14/is-…
...It is also curious how you get to a "critical stage" in the Grand Jury on such charges without hearing testimony from the person referenced as "the big guy" who would receive a ten percent cut and Hunter's uncle who helped in some of these dealings.
...That is the type of evidence that would establish a conspiracy or broader criminal enterprise. The concern is that a narrow criminal case could be brought that avoid such implications and allows for a plea bargain...

Because nothing speaks to a lifetime of struggle for equality than an estranged Royal living in exile on an $18 million estate. dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8… Prince Harry will share Mandela's "memories and legacy." theguardian.com/world/2022/jul…
...Hopefully, given Mandela's fight for free speech, Prince Harry will not share his own views on that subject as part of the event. jonathanturley.org/2021/05/17/the…
...I fail to see how this selection honors Mandela and does not trivialize his legacy...
