Proud of you but not blown away by appearance.
The world needs more of youđ.
Note that difficulty getting people like this out was one of the big criticisms of Bidenâs withdrawal. It is just so frustrating to be yet again put in a situation where people were given attention to air criticisms they didnt believe, and the people responsible for giving them attention by pretending to take them seriously will learn nothing.

What do you mean learn nothing? They learnt they will get away with it, and all that they need to do is to kowtow to the right people and their careers will advance.
Itâs fucked up, but we have to put it in the context of the time. Trump made criminal prosecution of these people a theme of his reelection, despite never articulating an actual crime or presenting anything that amounts to credible evidence of their criminality. Having the government pursue you like this is potentially ruinous financially and so this is some attempt to immunize them against politically motivated government harassments. Yes this is what Trump says happened to him, so some people will say this is just the other side doing the same. But we as individuals have both the ability and imperative to discern reality from bullshit and that means evaluating the claims of criminality on their merits and taking the appropriate action.

Pardons are the new thing, I guess. Just horrid and dangerous.

The ADL has become quite a weird org. It appears to have slipped closer into a direct pro-israel group and ever since Oct-23 seem to have picked up some odd bed fellows who are clearly anti-semitic but support Israel (because they want the jews out of their country? because that is what is needed for the rapture? because they dislike the Arabs more?) and there are many who argue this is a trade off the ADL has made.

Well done Bishop Mariann Budde, above. Very heartwarming to see someone so graciously, and forthrightly, speak truth to power.
