Due Process, Bad Decisions

We know how this turned out. Unlike inside a courtroom, there were no winners. If we want democracy to survive, we need to elevate our speech, not silence it.

We know that, when President Trump feels overwhelmed about a negative story about himself, he will create a media storm about something else -- usually a show of force against its own citizens. This is exactly what is happening in DC now. It is political theater that can only be fought by keeping up with the story about the release of the Epstein files. Ps.

In less than 150 words (at exactly 1:03), here is why I am taking time out from law school to produce, and why you should subscribe to, this rantcast.

MAGA Christians are all over social media celebrating JD Vance's two visits to two Popes in just one month. They openly consider Democrats as "the other side", and assume the Pope (in this case Leo XIV) is firmly on theirs. Let me clear this up once and for all: listen and learn about Catholicism and Christianity from an atheist.

Do not judge a book by its cover. Dive into this bill and see what's on the inside. Is it as beautiful as it appears to be? Will it seduce the Senators in Congress? Listen and find out my predictions. Do they align with yours?

Welcome, Pope Leo XIV, to the current shit show. Trump's enslaved court jesters have openly claimed to be skeptical. Donald Trump wants to meet him. But the new Pope is an apolitical figure whose life is focused on championing the very people that Trump abhors: the downtrodden and the poor. Enjoy the rantcast.

Journalists are supposed to hold the powerful to account. But are they fulfilling their duties ? Trump is hard to interview because his mouth does not make sounds, it makes lies. But there are basic details that a journalist should know that would help them call him out on the spot. Kristen Welker failed that test. Here's why.

US Attorney General, Pam Bondi does not act like the attorney for the American people, but she acts like Trump's personal attorney. Her brother, Bradley is running for president of the DC Bar. You know who should get that job instead? Someone with more integrity (and no ties to any authoritarian regimes) -- someone like Diane Seltzer ( https://www.seltzerlawfirm.com/dc-bar-presidential-electio...

Your distrust of others (and the experts) means you will add to your burden. Believe in the division of labor, and make time for more fun activities in your life -- like getting a girlfriend (or moving out of your parents' basement).

A quick call to action for those of us who don't understand why we got into this car in the first place. The driver is more sloshed than ever.

You could always stop "consuming", right? Or maybe, you should just vote for someone who understands the economy better than this wise guy from Queens acting like a sloshed driver behind the wheel.
