@jeanne-mayell - I'm wondering, (and I'll take the blame for discussing this topic in so many threads!) if we need a new subtopic in the COVID-19 Pandemic for the 2020-21 school year?  I'll admit I tried creating one a little while ago, but couldn't see how to do it.  I think you've mentioned before you can move replies?  Is there benefit in that?

I agree this is all on purpose. Not that it came from a lab or anything, but the Regime is nothing if not opportunist. They are masking Genocide with "incompetence", but I believe it's what they wanted all along, and hey, less money than if you have to start using up all your bombs and bullets to suppress dissent, right?

Even Florida's idiot governor issued an order reopening schools that gives local school boards the ultimate say. Trump can't order schools to do anything. It's just more tough talk trying to bully whoever is a republican into following suit. It'll backfire. Who on Earth likes to have anyone messing with their kids?

As for Devoss, it's amazing to me how many of these people on the extreme right just look like sociopaths. You can feel it. The creepy, cold feeling you get when you see them speak or see a picture of them. Is it possible that all extremists are sociopaths in one way or another? Maybe extremism itself is a form of mental illness? That would explain a lot. In plain terms, she just gives me the creeps.

Kushner reminds me of the creepy old preacher in the Poltergeist movies....and Devos? Her eyes are flat and soulless looking.... They are devoid of any compassion and empathy and definitely have the Sociopath Energy.

 The S.C.  has ruled nearly half of Oklahoma is with Muscogee (Creek) Indian Reseration, enforcing treaties over the objection of the Ffederal and state governments.

Writing for the majority, Gorsuch said, “Under our Constitution, States have no authority to reduce federal reservations lying within their borders. Just imagine if they did."

At issue was whether the Muscogee (Creek) Nation territory where the crime was committed should be considered a Native American reservation or whether Congress eliminated that status around the time Oklahoma became a state in 1907.

The ruling may effectively recognize for the first time much of eastern Oklahoma, including the entire city of Tulsa, as reservation land. Under U.S. law, tribe members who commit crimes on tribal land cannot be prosecuted in state courts and instead are subject to federal prosecution.

It is a case with a messy origin however.  the federal governments prosecution of a Native American man on Creek reservation land for raping a child.

It's always been NY who was going to get him.  The public only knows a sliver of what they know. All the indictments and prosecutions will come through them.

I had to look him up; I've never seen that movie. 

That's a disturbing comparison, LOL.

Re: Twitler Tax Returns

Yes, Congress "can't" see them in the sense they can't subpoena them, but I believe a lot of info will come out and they/we "may" end up seeing a lot more than Twitler wants.

Paging attorney @Allyn !!  Can you weigh in on how this will go now that it's kicked back down to the NYS courts?

Disappointed in today's SCOTUS ruling, although I didn't have my hopes high to begin with.

I don't have a good feeling about Cy Vance, the Manhattan DA, and am not sure he's going to be the beacon for justice we need.

Some days it is very difficult not to lose all hope. I am trying to remember that this too shall pass.

Indeed - I saw that movies AGES ago... and.. his face and singing 'God is in His Holy Temple' and "aren't you going to let me in" still have the power to creep me out big time.

Yes.. go read the Guardian's (US) Live section : "

Schiff acknowledged the court’s decision would delay the House investigations but expressed confidence that Democrats would ultimately prevail in their legal battle.

“The Supreme Court’s remand of this case to permit the lower courts to apply the new standard will serve to delay the Committee’s investigation — and, given the risk of foreign influence over this President, such delay is dangerous — but we remain confident that we will ultimately prevail,” Schiff said. “And in light of the President’s tweets this morning, he appears to believe the same.”

NY State holds the Trump card.

It's a very bad day for him. He will be fully revealed. Already happening, step by step.

See a noose tightening around his neck. I believe this is how he feels. He knows he's been caught. Just a matter of time.
