It's telling that no member of the Supreme Court was willing to put their name on that decision.

“The president is elected by the entire nation, and it should be the entire nation who determines who they want for president, whether they are guilty of insurrection or not,” Bobb said during an interview on Real America’s Voice. “It’s up to the people.”

When was the last time a Republican won the popular vote?

The difference, of course, is that in this case there is an actual panel and death is actually on the table.

This is why the big search engines are throwing money at large language models. They hope AI-curated results is the next revolutionary advance.

I think there could be a reasonable discussion in the context of his mental competence. Worsening personal hygiene is a red flag for dementia, etc.

That said, the "hurr hurr smells liek butt" level of rhetoric is probably unproductive and shouldn't be condoned.

He wants people like me to be executed for existing. It would be rude not to reciprocate.

I can believe that none of the sycophants in Trump's orbit would tell him that he smells. Or any other kind of criticism, for that matter.

One does not simply criticize one's meal ticket.

Two days before the January 6 insurrection, the Trump campaign’s plan to use fake electors to block President-elect Joe Biden from taking office faced a potentially crippling hiccup: The fake elector certificates from two critical battleground states were stuck in the mail

The lawsuit stems from a 2016 FBI investigation during the Obama administration over Flynn’s suspected ties to Russia. In 2017, Flynn pled guilty to lying to the FBI regarding his association with Russian contacts. Shortly after the 2020 election, the former head of the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) received a pardon from Trump.

Accepting a pardon is an admission of guilt. Case dismissed.

Asked whether he was at the Jan. 6 riot, Krvaric initially told USA TODAY he was not. Pressed about the photos that online researchers say show him that day, Krvaric acknowledged he attended former President Donald Trump’s speech, but said he didn’t go inside the Capitol. Asked about images that appear to show him inside the Capitol, he then said he didn’t remember whether he went inside. Sent copies and links to the footage, he stopped responding.
