Late-stage dementia.
@GOP should force Trump to drop out
b/c of a medical condition.

@NYTHealth @PostHealthSci @USATODAYhealth:
Ask neurologists w/ dementia specialty to describe what they see in Trump videos.
See revised Goldwater Rule that allows this
in ALT TEXT.

Revised Goldwater Rule: "According to the APA’s Principles of Medical Ethics With Annotations Especially Applicable to Psychiatry, “A physician shall recognize a responsibility to participate in activities contributing to the improvement of the community and the betterment of public health.”1 Accordingly, there needs to be acceptable and ethical ways for psychiatrists and other mental health professionals to opine about political and public figures on behalf of the public’s well-being and society’s greater good." https://www.psychiatrictimes.com/view/the-goldwater-rule-is-fine-if-...

I get now why it took 2½ weeks for SCOTUS
to accept the immunity case:
The payments had to be made.
Of course.
$$$ wire transfers from Leo/Crow/Mercers disguised thru multiple hops into
Justices' secret accts.
Watch for new real estate, luxury cars/RVs.

THS IS A STORY that I hope outrages you,
esp b/c more outrageous treatment is on its way for women who get pregnant from rape if Roe falls.

This is about Crysta Abelseth, who at 16 accepted a ride home from John Barnes, age 30, who instead of taking her home, raped her. Image 2
Abelseth got pregnant from the rape,gave birth to a little girl, and moved on with her life. Until 2010, that is, when Barnes, her alleged rapist, found out about their then-5-year-old daughter.

Barnes then began a legal battle against Abelseth to obtain custody rights.

SCOTUS: Body Autonomy

"Imagine a scenario where you're a perfect bone marrow match for a child with severe aplastic anemia.
No other person on earth is a close enough match to save the child's life, & the child will certainly die w/o a bone marrow transplant from you."

@cnnbrk "If you decide that you did not want to donate your marrow to save the child, for whatever reason, the state cannot demand the use of any part of your body for something to which you do not consent."

The term "court-packing" is both pejorative and projection, accusing the other party of that which you are guilty.

But consider that the Federal courts have a long and honorable history of expansion.

@glennkirschner @tribelaw @neal_katyal @danielsgoldman @BarryBerke 2

In 1801, Congress created six circuit courts. They added a seventh in 1807 and added a seventh justice of the Supreme Court. The 8th circuit was added in 1837, the 9th in 1855, the 10th in 1863.

The DC circuit court was added in 1893, the Court of Customs Appeals in 1909.

TIMING AND THE KAVANAUGH NOMINATION. THE SH!TSTORM TO COME.

The assault allegation by Dr. Christine Blasey Ford will not be resolved quickly or satisfactorily, nor will Kavanaugh's guilt or innocence be proven, w/o an @FBI and @MDSP Maryland Police investigation and/or trial. 2 This is about far more than Dr. Blasey. The investigations will uncover far more information than just about a high school assault.

Looking at the end game, the only way for the GOP and for some Senate Judiciary Comm members to save their necks is for Kavanaugh to withdraw.
