Trump was talking about coronavirus with John Bolton in January, which is interesting because Bolton left in September.

I was just coming here to post about his secret adopted adult son from Cuba. So strange. I mean, good for him for adopting?

Tom Cotton wrote:"If the Chief Justice believes his political judgment is so exquisite, I invite him to resign, travel to Iowa, and get elected. I suspect voters will find his strange views no more compelling than do the principled justices on the Court"


Ted Cruz wrote:“Judging is not a game. It’s not supposed to be a game but sadly over recent years more and more, Chief Justice Roberts has been playing games with the court to achieve the policy outcomes he desires,” Cruz said.


Marco Rubio wrote:"What really troubles a lot of people is that some of the folks that the Republican Party has put on this bench ... because they say that they understand that their job is to interpret the law, not to write it, are becoming activists. It's concerning."


If Rubio and friends would bother legislating then this would not have to ever be a thing. Also, if "legislation" has not become an executive order activity, then this would not be anything either. Pass an actual law that fits into the constitutional framework.

The recent Supreme Court decisions, not only on DACA, Sanctuary Cities, Census, and others, tell you only one thing, we need NEW JUSTICES of the Supreme Court. If the Radical Left Democrats assume power, your Second Amendment, Right to Life, Secure Borders, and...

...Religious Liberty, among many other things, are OVER and GONE!


This is pretty crazy. Aside from having no idea how the country works or that the venerable Constitution was not a tabloid, its just another day for the Chief Twit.


Not that he gives a shit about honesty or anything, but how perfect is it that one of those recent decisions was written by a justice he nominated?

Biden got failing grades and polls on his clueless handling of the Swine Flu H1N1. It was a total disaster, they had no idea what they were doing. Among the worst ever!


US Deaths H1N1: It's estimated that the swine flu -- a new type of flu that spread worldwide during 2009-2010, causing the first flu pandemic -- caused more than 12,000 flu-related deaths in the U.S.

US projected COVID deaths by October: 201,000

That is a really stupid line of attack

Yes, but the old O-S-I-U scale is confusing.

On June 3, Trump told Fox that James Madison, the 6th president, was the 1st to attend St. John's Church. (He was 4th president.)

Yesterday, Trump told the WSJ that John Adams, the 5th or 6th president, was the 1st to attend. (It was Madison. Adams was the 2nd president.)

President Trump was adamant earlier this spring that he planned to repeat last year’s July 4 spectacle on the National Mall. Seventeen days before Independence Day, though, signs that anything is in the works remain elusive.

The National Park Service is still waiting on an announcement


It would be just fine if this goes away. I thought Trump was going to SD for a Rushmore celebration.

May be worth noting in the interest of fairness that the sixth president was John Quincy Adams.
