Feinstein's Letter about Kavanaugh.

[Hawkmoon]

As we have seen recently in the Kavanaugh case, Mr. Hawkmoon, facts are no longer needed to support a case.  Objection overruled.  Please continue, Mr. 230RN.

I was referring to your insinuation that leftists might "think."

Just money, or part of a grand plan on the dem side for some kind of diversion? If the SC rules that Trump can be on ballots, I'm sure the calls to pack the court will reappear, and for that, they have to highlight the "bad conservative" justices.

Timing is everything.

And it's only February.
No telling what else is going to come out of the woodwork between now and Nov

Depends on the vote. It's sounding like 9-0 in Trumps favor isn't unlikely. Perhaps with different reasoning over 2-3 opinions.

The publishing/book racket is not unlike Hunters art racket. It's a money laundering scheme.

I've always thought it would be interesting to track where all that book deal money comes from. I find it hard to believe many of these books actually make anywhere near their money back when you add up the cost of the deal plus printing and distribution costs.

The two posts above mine are worth considering. Especially with these "D list" political celebrities. These books always seem to end up in the $5 bargain bin in like a month. I don't see how the publishers are making any kind of profit there. It might be cheaper than running traditional political ads though, with all the interviews on The View, et al.

If it goes 9-0 you'll have to pick me up off the floor.
I have almost no doubt a certain 3 who are in the "the Constitution is a living doc" camp automatically knee jerked against Trump 0.05 seconds after it was announce it would go to the SC

Book fees, fees for speeches, probably fees to do TV interviews.  I am sure there are 50 more legal ways to launder money directly to politcians.

I agree.

Kagan is a real lawyer. There's a [very] remote possibility that she'll render an honest opinion. As for the Wise Latina and Justice Katanja "What's a constitution?" Brown, I will be gobsmacked if they vote in favor of Trump.
