I hope we have criminal trials in the U.S. similar to those at The Hague, when the repubs lose and we gain back a democracy!

Me, too - and it can't happen soon enough considering how the criminal activities keep on going, increasing exponentially, it seems.

Can the Cannon decision be appealed? Or, if not, perhaps mysteriously leaking the report?

It's outrageous that other countries are taking action against Epstein's pals who've committed crimes while our government, in Epstein's home, stands by and does nothing!

Donald Trump has made his legacy...a historical nutbar....if we can manage to get through this, there is hope for a better world to come. We can do it.

“You and what army?” is correct. The irony is too delicious:

John Roberts and his buddies on the court tell Trump he can get away with murder while in office.

Then Trump insults John Roberts when Roberts says he can’t cross a constitutional line.

A plague on all their houses.

Regarding Mary's first sentence = = > "Last week, the Supreme Court told Donald that he must stop imposing his illegal tariffs." . . .

Donald's tariff-imposition activities were presumably known to the nation's approximately 1.37 million (1,374,720) lawyers, many of whom are Constitutional lawyers, such as the great Jamie Raskin and Barack Obama.

Why did neither of them, nor any one of all the many other lawyers, recognize the unconstitutionality of Donald's tariff activities long before the Supreme Court pointed it out to them?

I don't get it. Maybe someone did, and I missed it. Any help with this would be appreciated.

Almost seems as if LAWS do not exist anymore.

Things do seem to be trending that way.

The US president disregards laws he doesn't like, which sets an example for others to do the same. The Supreme Court can't enforce the law decisions it makes, and the Justice Department, which can, doesn't, because it has capitulated to whatever the president wants, who disregards laws, and so it goes - all indicators of what you said, "seems as if LAWS do not exist anymore."

If and when laws cease to exist, then what? The Wild West, where everybody shoots each other, and those with the fastest draw win?

Surprised that the NRA is not bragging about the increase in gun sales.

LOL It may be comming but right now they are having problems. Here's what I found from a search just now.....

As of February 2026, the National Rifle Association (NRA) is navigating a major leadership overhaul and legal battles following a 2024 New York civil verdict that found former CEO Wayne LaPierre liable for misspending, resulting in a 10-year ban from the organization. The NRA is now under new leadership (CEO Doug Hamlin), fighting to rebuild its financial standing and political influence while facing new, smaller-scale internal disputes.

Since The President made or may have made remarks about women losing children which I have, I would have Tuxedo Man scratch him big time! Sorry to be mean about your family, but losing children hurts U.S. women who have miscarried twice. So my cats more than make up for it! May I ask what happened to your video?

This info came from an Inside History article about Kaiser Wilhelm II written by Jessica Pearce Rotondi. Who does this remind you of?

“His impetuosity and histrionic vanity caused him to let his rhetoric run away with him and say things that he afterwards regretted and which official spokesmen needed to ‘interpret’ or explain away,” writes W.A. Coupe in his article, “Kaiser Wilhelm II and the Cartoonists.” Even before his brash comments stirred international controversy, he gained infamy for alleged activities that took place closer to home." This was in reference to a sex scandal revealed in 1891.

Actual and aspiring autocrats shield their powerful allies while brutalizing, or enabling the brutalizing of, vulnerable people. Preventing the release of the Epstein files fits perfectly into that playbook.

And that is the opposite of what a fair society should do: protect the vulnerable and hold the powerful accountable.
