1. I analyze SCOTUS through a political lens. Dems pick judges, GOP generally picks political operatives. Roberts & Kavanaugh were nominated for political service. Roberts was Reagan's asst counsel. From my brother's time as AG counsel pretty sure he had AC Privilege with POTUS.

2. Kavanaugh was a team member in Ken Starr's anti-Clinton jihad. Alito started in Reagan's DOJ Asst U.S. Atty in NJ. to then rocket to Asst U.S. solicitor general, then Deputy asst U.S. AG, & finally U.S. Atty in NJ. Except for 1st job as AUSA in NJ, all political appointments.

3. Thomas started as the Asst AG in Missouri with a stint in private practice followed by becoming US Senator John Danford's legislative asst. Next he was named Asst Sec for Civil Rights in US Dept of Ed. Then Reagan appointed him as Chair of the EEOC. Bush41 nominated him to

1. Law of Unintended Consequences: Putin used his control over the traitorous former US president Donald Trump to cause the @HouseGOP to block support, including supply of weapons, to Ukraine, forcing Ukraine to turn to home-grown weapons. The result is a long-reach strategic

2. capability that, prior to Putin's activation of the orange stooge and his sub-stooge, @SpeakerJohnson, Ukraine didn't posses. This attack in South Ossetia is over 600 miles from the Ukrainian lines.

3. Moscow is only 350 miles from the Ukrainian lines.

1. I was wondering something so I checked. I was the night manager of the NY Plaza 10 years prior to this film. This was the Donald Trump I remembered. Not very bright, somewhat brash with a Queens accent. But he was fairly articulate. But what we now witness is

2. someone very different. Inarticulate, rambling and at times totally unhinged. Unrecognizable. What could have done this to the guy from Queens? Here's one possibility.

3. The trial established one fact that gets little attention. It is now proven that Donald Trump has engaged in unprotected sexual contact with commercial sex workers. That is a fact that, when the NY State PSI is done, may catch the attention of the probation officials

1. As the GOP and Trump become more unhinged and erratic I think I know why. They are likely learning what I discovered that Trump can be put in mental and medical assessment that can isolate him for up to 30 days. He likely suffers from dementia and stimulant addiction.

2. The state has an obligation to protect prisoners, prison population and staff and so that assessment will likely be part of what the judge decides upon sentencing when he determines whether to commit him to rehabilitation initially. I'm watching for how long it takes for

3. Trump to report to probation for PSI. If he's as bad as he appears, they'll have to clean him up. He was sniffling so likely used yesterday. The urine test may clear in a few days but hair is good for 90. I noticed he had gotten a noticeable hair cut in the past few days.

1. Unless the SCOTUS agrees with Trump that POTUS can harm justices with impunity, Trump's two federal trials will likely continue. If it is reasonably unlikely that the trials can be completed before the election then Jack Smith should consider the following:

2. In DC. Trump engaged in an organized violent attempt to overthrow US Constitution by attacking with a violent force with elements that were well-armed and waiting orders in Virginia. Whiskey Rebellion and Shays Rebellion support charge of Treason under the levies war clause

3. and statutory treason charge. Trump is likely under court supervision throughout the election and the addition of pre-trial supervision for a capital offense will be of little additional restriction NY won't have already imposed. There will be time for pretrial proceedings

1. Reading NY law for some professional development. I see that if a person is not granted unconditional release they'll be under some form of probation supervision. First they do a presentencing report. What if a person is an alleged drug abuser? Do they dig into their past?

2. I wonder what the case law say about a probationer hanging around with people who have tried but failed to overthrow the Constitution? Would they be considered "disreputable?" What if you when you plan a big convention full of them? What are "injurious or vicious habits?

3. Would threatening witnesses and jurors suffice? Plus it must be exciting to know that your probation officer and come to you home and look around any time they want without warning.
