Well.

Fine. Please name the people who you think should be appointed to those positions.

This is a declaratory judgment suit, or a type of suit known as a qui tam suit. Private parties can file suits like this to tell prosecutors to wake up and do their damn jobs.

So there are a few problems, ethically and legally, of which the author only addressed the tax ones.

Bless this man. I wish I could send a fully cooked, delicious turkey to his house.

Dear Lara,

I have seen the idea floated in several articles of those of us who are privileged to work from home should pay a 5% tax to be distributed to those who can't. I think it's a great idea.

I’m sorry, Mr. Harriot. I completely agree with everything you are saying here, and I don’t want to detract from it at all.

OK, Boomer.

So one little nitpick with the argument that VP-elect Harris needs to “atone” for her days as a prosecutor...

President Obama and his various cabinet members have in the past, and multiple times, pointed to Libya as one of their biggest mistakes.

Here’s what I don’t understand - 55% of white women voted for Trump in 2020 - a 2% increase over 2016: https://www.teenvogue.com/story/white-women-support-trump

Castle Rock v. Gonzales all over again: https://www.oyez.org/cases/2004/04-278

Why. Do. They. Still. Have. Law. Licenses. What the FUCK, MO state bar? Surely, you’ve pulled or suspended law licenses for less bad behavior than this? They’ve been charged with felonies!! WHY are they still allowed to practice law?

Not mine. Alito, Thomas, Kavanaugh, and Gorsuch have each previously shown a willingness to be activists for the right cause. Amy Coney Barrett is an unknown quantity, but if she wants to make a name for herself, I don’t know if CJ Roberts has the backbone or the leadership skills to keep the rest in line.

I’m just going to leave this here

As always, you're doing the Lord's work, Rooo.

Side note - if you’re standing behind a person with an EBT card, watching her deciding what she can afford after the cashier rang everything up and the total was more than she expected, please - try not to sigh or roll your eyes. She knows. Trust me - she knows.
