Thinking recently about questions for nominee Amy Coney Barrett, and her Originalism theory, I thought of an interesting argument — “Originalism is not a valid judicial theory because there is no evidence that the constitutional framers believed in it.” See that? How can you have a valid “Originalist” theory that the Constitution is rigidly to be…

Frontier gibberish: “I’m back because I’m a perfect physical specimen and I’m extremely young”
The stupid is always stronger with these people (John Fugelsang) The president is outright lying right now on Rush’s show, saying we have a cure for COVID. x Trump starts by saying he “jumped” on the invite to do this rally because Rush's audience is so large.

Let's not let the perfect be the enemy of the good: fossil-fuel subsidies are still in trouble
Trump has pimped for the fossil fuel industries because it’s still about money, just like dialing back some election promises in order to reinstate them after election day. Because the Trump recession needs to be fixed, and taking back Congress will move re-regulation back to the clean energy agenda, rather than the fracking fakery of…

GA-Sen B: Sen. Jeff Merkley (D. OR), “Rev. Raphael Warnock (D) is a perfect leader for this moment.”
Received this e-mail today from U.S. Senator Jeff Merkley (D. OR) in support of Rev. Raphael Warnock’s (D. GA) U.S. Senate campaign: America is hurting.

Donny's unhinged narcissism and terrible grammar collaborate on the perfect Trump tweet
Here’s your choice, Donny: Either you’re an idiot who doesn’t know how to use apostrophes or you think only one president is worth mentioning on Presidents Day. x HAPPY PRESIDENT’S DAY! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 17, 2020 The AP Stylebook — my go-to source for this kind of thing — says the holiday…
Republican Senator John Barrasso gives perfect evidence of Republicans’ bad faith
This is perfect. Here is Republican Senator John Barrasso on January 22nd, dismissing the House Managers’ case and opposing the call for taking additional evidence: “We’ve just come out listening to, what, six hours of testimony, and I didn’t hear anything new,” Sen. John Barrasso (R-Wyo.) told reporters early Wednesday evening. “It still seems to me that…
Dershowitz claimed he had a “perfect, perfect sex life.” Some disagree.
Apparently Alan Dershowitz got insulted when he claimed he had a perfect sex life, and forensic psychiatrist Bandy X. Lee thought it verged on delusion like his buddy, IMPOTUS*. Darn those tweets and darn that tendency to lawfare. This may have seemed like symmetric media messaging because Dershowitz and Trump were sharing similar public statements about perfection, and…
On the day of the perfect call Trump thought it was all coming together
Even though the funds were being held at least a week before, on the day of the perfect call, Trump knew he had to shake down Zerensky with a specific solicitation regarding the Bidens. as Giuliani was already helping to facilitate with the removal of Ambassador Yovanovitch. Darn those coincidences. x Trump’s rants are calculated. But…
Perfect is the Enemy of Good
I always loved nature, ever since I was a barefoot kid chasing tadpoles and minnows in Omaha’s Papio Creek. I always loved unions, too, especially after I got a truck driving job at Teamster wages in Oakland California, at double my prior non-union earnings. For forty years, I’ve tried to help unions and environmentalists seek…
Rudy was joking (says his lawyer) when he said he had insurance, since his call to Trump was perfect
The joke is in your hands. The attorney, Robert Costello, said Giuliani “at my insistence” had called Trump “within the last day” to emphasize that he had not been serious when he said he had an “insurance policy, if thrown under the bus.” “He shouldn’t joke, he is not a funny guy. I told him,…
Florida Man's perfect phone call was anything but impeachable … it was “wonerful”
In a WaPo op-ed. Paul Waldman spells out how inevitably impeachable Trump made his “perfect” 25 July phone call. President Trump loves superlatives, so here’s one: His July 25 conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky may have been the single dumbest, most damaging phone call in the history of the presidency, if not in the…
John Eisenberg, Who Hid drumpf's Not So Perfect Calls on Secret Server, Knows from Quid Pro Quos.
Deputy White House counsel John Eisenberg is camera shy, so I’m gonna let Baghdad Bob stand in his stead in the top photo. Eisenberg is the guy that stashed Don the Con’s quid pro quo call (and God knows what else) into the NSC’s super secret server, presumably to follow the letter of the law by…
