Watching Ken Burns’ program on the American Revolution, I began to doubt my sanity when seeing clips of Bernard Bailyn, whom I thought we lost a few years ago. Well, I guess the clips were made even earlier.

A list (partial) of evidence that Trump’s a Russian agent: elimination of sanctions; cutting aid to Ukraine; sharing secret info; discarding cyberwar protections; attacks on American institutions, states, and alliances; promotion of fossil fuels. Evidence contra? Disbelief is not evidence.

Not a few have asked if Trump were à Russian agent, tasked with destroying the U.S., would he be doing anything differently. Use the duck test. If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck …

We seem to have 2 court systems. The lower courts are following statutes and precedents. Then SCOTUS is saying never mind. The law is what WE say it is, and we needn’t explain bz it is known only to us.

SCOTUS’s Seditious Six say the law is whatever they say. But to be legitimate, law must be clear, consistent, knowable in advance, and generally applicable. These justices, who lied their way on to the Court, fail not surprisingly to meet these standards.

Every accusation is an admission. Trump says Dems “hate America,” but he’s the one trying to destroy its government, constitution, institutions, relations, science, and anything Americans have cause to be proud of.

Gorsuch said the SCOTUS decision in Trump v US, issues July 2024, was “for the ages.” If the Constitution is no longer enforceable, this “ages” are not for long — maybe less than a year.

A distinction should be made between what Trump says he’s doing and what he is doing. He says he’s making America great. In fact, he’s making it poorer, sicker, dumber, and meaner. Who should we believe? A pathological liar or our own eyes?

Trump says it’s good that US investors are losing trillions. Also down is up, black is wide, and we should all be poorer, dumber, and sicker.

It’s time to start talking seriously about impeachment. The US can’t survive another 4 years — or even one year — of traitorous leadership.

Trump & Vance said Ukraine had no cards. They have a treaty to which the US is a party guaranteeing their borders, a people who don’t want to be conquered & enslaved, human rights, international law, and the EU, with 5x Russia’s economy plus most of the UN.

If anyone wondered, 18 USC 2701 makes “unlawful access to stored communications” a felony. DOGE has been racking up felonies in vast quantities. But who will enforce the law?

Glad to see ND “find a way to win,” like in the days I started watching. My dad chaired the architecture dept. & designed the Snite Mus. Lot of time spent in SB. Great respect for the school.
