What a Week in Washington
A bombshell for Biden, Trump scolds the Justices he appointed, Tucker flies to Moscow to have Putin remind him that the CIA passed on him.
What a week in Washington the supreme court heard arguments disqualifying one candidate from this year’s presidential ballot while the other saw charges vanish due to jury liking mistaking him for a house plant. The icing being Trump is already facing the same charge Biden has been deemed too feeble to withstand, yet we are supposed to re-elect him. Not to mention the most polarizing talk show host released an interview with the guy we’ve been at war with for the past two years, all before super bowl Sunday.
This special counsel report should be our wake up call, when the curtain comes up and people with headsets come out and say okay it was just a test, don’t worry you passed. Biden declined to speak during the biggest television event of the year, not because he had something better to do, but because his team accurately determined long ago that the less America hears of Biden the better we can build back. The mishandling of classified documents is one of those crimes where if you could magically know every time it occurred you’d be appalled and left scratching your head. I agree, Trump’s case is far worse than Biden’s, but if any tenured member of congress is also guilty of the same crime doesn’t that water down the charges?
According to the special counsel report during the investigation interviews our current president could not remember ‘when his term ended (“if it was 2013 - when did I stop being Vice President?”) and forgetting on the second day of the interview when his term began (“in 2009, am I still Vice President?”)’ - 212 During Biden’s response to the report he was asked about his previous answers to questions pertaining to his fitness for office being “just watch me,” and bless her press core journalist heart for adding, ‘frankly Americans have been watching and are unconvinced.’ If and when we get debates, the burden The President of The United States of America will toll loud and clear.
Trump, the insurrectionist, will be the most litigated named in history by the time this country is done with him. On what legal ground the supreme court rests its argument will be of secondary concern if all those would be Trump voters are left pissing in the wind. As Krystal of Breaking Points said, “you can’t break democracy to save democracy,” or can you? Since America was founded through a declaration of independence, insurrection should be a day of the week, but we’ve come a long way.
It will be two years next month since I wrote Putin on a Show, expressing my view of the war in Ukraine. While the Ukrainian flags you’d see around town have faded or turned Palestinian, Putin reaffirmed he has no intention of invading Poland, contrary to say, the state department.
