I'll believe it when this happens

I can't believe you just typed out, "not only are they Republicans, but they're lawyers!" and I'm supposed to take that as a vote of confidence

yup

if you've ever spent time around lawtalkers you start noticing how they always give themselves wiggle room in even casual conversations among family

that poo poo pervades their entire mindset. they'll never speak in absolutes because getting caught out like that could potentially gently caress your entire career exactly like this

when you're old and read zany rightwing poo poo it's really easy to get into a mindset that laws don't apply to you the same way they apply to others.

look man i have played tyranny, which is an excellent game by the way you should buy it, and i know from experience that the law does not apply the same to law-givers as it does to law-breakers even if the law-giver is breaking the law

i mean, same here as far as believing poo poo matters

but even the loving mob has rules you don't cross unless you want to end up beaten almost to death and then buried while still breathing in a corn field, and perjury among lawyers is on the same level

npr did a thing today talking about russian press suddenly becoming really silent on trump a few weeks ago

either putin wants to distance himself because trumps insane, or after flynn putin is trying to distance himself because he's about to get some serous implications thrown his way
