Quoting somebody else's wrong opinion won't help you out. You remain wrong about everything.

The reality:
- It was not Judge Cannon's decision. It was Justice Thomas's opinion that Cannon relies on. You know, Clarence Thomas the supreme corruptant in SCOTUS.
- Justice Thomas's opinion would dismiss all special counsels appointed by DOJ Attorney Generals, such as Robert Mueller of Mueller Report or Archibald Cox of Watergate.
- The partisan intent is all on Cannon's and Thomas's side. Trump stole documents designated as federal secret. He boasted around with them liberally and refuses to return them. Based on the facts it is a very easy open-and-shut case that requires a hyperpartisan hypocrite to disagree.

"The President has the authority to declassify documents!" you say? :lol: He is on public record boasting to his guests about the documents exactly as secret documents!

You are always wrong about everything. This should not be hard for you to learn.

The 11th District will more likely make the right decision: Replace Judge Cannon for her third egregious mistake in this case (judges are allowed up to three egregious mistakes, I hear) so the case can proceed. When appealed to SCOTUS, SCOTUS is likely to make the wrong decision again, because for SCOTUS there is no law and order, no justice, no checks and balances. SCOTUS is on board with the plan to secure the creation of Unified Reich as promised in Trump's campaign ad.

You remain an idiot, ersi! Also, on the basis of your posts, I think you're a Nazi! (I'm applying your own criterion... :) )

Shall I try to argue you out of this reprehensible ideology?

—————————————

But Nazi or Communist, you've not any power to speak of; so, I don't worry. And your arguments  convince no one.
You don't like Trump. You don't like America. You don't like — hell, what do you like? :) You've never said...

BTW: I don't think you can begin a sentence with "The reality" when you've openly confessed that you believe all speech is political! :)[1]
I suspect all your speech is masturbatory! :)

When confronted with a fact, your counter-argument needs to be factual, not a personal insult. This is babystep basics that you are failing at, doofus.

By the way, how do you like Trump's VP pick? Not too long ago JD Vance held that Trump was fascist, but now he is his running mate. So, checkmark on being a turncoat bootlicker. Any other virtues you see in him?

When dealing with an ersi who makes insults his primary mode of discourse, closely followed by outrageous assertions and tenuous at best deductions, an occasional insult is justified:
As I mentioned before: You're too old to be mesmerized by memes!

What plan do you speak of? And how did you determine SCOTUS (I assume you mean the supposed "conservative" majority...) is "on board"?
You've got Nazis on the brain![1] (And in your neighborhood...?)
And since there's little else there, as credulous as you seem to be, it might be considered more than a preoccupation! (You and Putin have that in common.)

So you're oblivious of both where the discussion is at the moment and where it came from? You need hand-holding so much that it honestly deserves mocking. I would really prefer if you kept to the topic and to the issues, but you are atrociously incapable of it.

You could simply have answered the perfectly topical question about JD Vance, but no, you prefer to keep it on your doofus level. That's where you are comfortable. It's truly amazing how little you know about your own country, but clearly this is a pre-condition to be a hyperpartisan hypocrite for Repubs.

What plan do you speak of? And how did you determine SCOTUS (I assume you mean the supposed "conservative" majority...) is "on board"?
This is an astonishing masterpiece of reading incomprehension from you, doofus. Are you so drunk that you forgot Project 2025 already? Project 2025 is the plan. In the post with Trump's campaign ad that I linked, enough elements of the plan are spelled out for you.

Hasn't Trump promised to become dictator on day one (or was it SNL comedy according to you)? And hasn't he said that if he gets the office again, you don't need to vote any more? This is what SCOTUS is on board with: Absolute immunity! In SCOTUS's mind, when the founding fathers were drafting the constitution, they envisioned a god-on-earth while trying to steer clear from king.

You've got Nazis on the brain!
Says the guy in whose team of presidential and vice-presidential candidates one has said that the other one is Hitler — and they are running together. You already voted for that gang twice and you are about to do it a third time. Projection is superstrong in you.

Project 2025 is a plan compiled for and published by the Heritage Foundation for potential incoming Republican administrations... It is a wish-list of that organization. If wishes were horses, we'd all ride!
The Dems are pushing it as a "secret" campaign document... And some few silly people will believe that's what it is. :)

Your context goggles have fallen off... I'll wait while your fumble about, trying to find them! :)

In much the same way I used to think you a smart guy, just easily deluded by a particular set of prejudices — I realized that I was wrong! Your intelligence is in serious doubt.

This is what SCOTUS is on board with: Absolute immunity!
So, you couldn't be bothered to read the actual decisions? Not surprising! But the sources that underpin your take must -by now- be considered suspect, even by you?! No?

Trump's platform is whatever he declares and repeats on the campaign trail. He declares and repeats and posts videos with points from Project 2025, which is authored by people who were in his administration and who are running his campaign right now. Knowing your limits, it's okay that you are blind to Project 2025, but you should at least acknowledge quotes from the horse himself. Unfortunately, you are blind doofus to everything related to Trump.

And most crucially to the point right now: You have nothing to say about JD Vance. Let's try again differently: If Trump were to replace JD Vance, who should the replacement be?

What about Project 2025 bothers you? Can you name one or two things?

(Don't be shy! I'm sure your opinions are based on more than Democrat Party memes...)

Trump's own private jet got a bit glitchy, so he switched to Epstein's old plane. Well, naturally, of course he had that as a backup!

Trump, enroute on his own private plane to a campaign event in Bozeman, Montana last week, unexpectedly landed in Billings because of mechanical problems, a campaign spokeswoman said. He and part of his staff then flew on a small charter to Bozeman for a rally Friday night. The next day, he switched to another larger Gulfstream with a serial number that matches a plane once owned by Epstein, his former neighbor in Palm Beach, the campaign confirmed.

“The campaign had no awareness that the charter plane had been owned by Mr. Epstein,” the spokeswoman said, adding that the charter was commissioned by a vendor that has often been used by the campaign. “We heard about the former owner through the media.”

Miami Herald has verified that Trump's current plane is Epstein's former jet.

As another backup plan, Trump said in his Musk interview broadcast by Twitter (also glitchy) that if Kamala Harris wins (which would be unfair to him and to democracy) he would flee to Venezuela https://www.vanityfair.com/news/story/trump-suggests-hell-flee-to-venezuela-if-harris-wins-the-election

David Runciman at the Guardian cannot decide whether Trump is a fascist.
Much of that is just… weird, to say the least. Was everything the brownshirts did in Weimar Germany an external conflict? Was the Reichstag fire?

Or to summarize the article in just one sentence: nobody today is exactly like a fascist from a 100 years ago. Shocking.

Re: Everything Trump…

Fascists 100 years ago weren't exactly like each other either.

Easy to be bogged down into what are the common traits of fascists and fascism, and what are the most dangerous ones.

I listened to the Rogan interview. Trump's (and Rogan's) lies are so uninteresting that I won't mention them this time. This time I mention only the true parts.

Trump: "I ran and I won against Hillary...[1] And presidency was a very surreal experience."
Rogan: "How did you know who to pick [when in office]?"
Trump: "I didn't... I made some mistakes."

A specific mistake he mentioned was  "I picked some people, a few people I should not have picked" which is not quite true. Everybody he picked was wrong in one way or another, along with himself as president.

Rogan: "There are some chemicals and ingredients in our food [in USA] that are illegal in other countries. There's pesticides and herbicides and a lot of health consequences..."
Trump: "Look at this chart. These [other countries] are healthier countries."[2]

And this is all the truth there was during those three hours of interview. Trump rehashed his usual lies, but more comfortably and more elaborately than ever because Rogan accommodated and enabled him fully, so that Trump felt free to tell for example the stories how he defeated ISIS, how migrant gangs come from mental institutions to swing states to vote "who are mostly Haitians who don't speak any language that anybody could understand" (straight quote) along with prisoners of the Congo, how Putin and Xi loved him and how Harris is a low-IQ individual, all stories told multiple times in multiple ways during the interview. It could have been considerably shorter.
Well done, Donald! It was not Obama or Biden you won against :)
This was immediately followed up by Trump stating that "I gotta be careful about the environmental. I love oil."

Victor Davis Hanson is not a personal friend of mine, but ... He's always struck me as an astute observer of the world.
What a busy weekend. Today Victor Davis Hanson gave the following interview

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHU6x-9rhzQ

I find Victor Davis Hanson giving off an air of an astute observer of the world, while really being a hyperpartisan basket case of bs brainwash flush. He calmly presents partisan lies as facts.[1] The sad state of affairs is that almost everything presented as fact is a lie by Hanson. Even more: Absolutely everything without exception regarding the current presidential race that he should be well informed about is either flat-out lies or so partisanly tendentious that cannot be taken as an almost-there information on good faith. There is a slight chance on some points that he doesn't know any better due to excessive immersion in self-confirming academic updates combined with too little travel.

The interviewer appears to be well-meaning, but really too well-meaning and under-prepared for the kind of dangerous intellectual deceiver that Hanson is. The interviewer is not up to his task.

To onlookers: Victor Davis Hanson is not worth your time. He is all-in for Trump, but he is not a player like e.g. John Eastman who broke no laws according to OakdaleFTL, but whose election theft plan for Trump got him into criminal cases in several states and disbarred in California. As long as Hanson does not serve under Trump, he is not that important.
As with the Rogan interview, I am not in the mood of debunking lies this weekend.

Hm. I just listened to the podcast... I seriously doubt that ersi ever did. (Note: He cites not one instance what Hanson said that was factually incorrect.[1] But a salient reason for the lack of examples (besides not bothering to listen to -or inability to understand- the exchange) is that his preconceived notions (and disguised motives) might be exposed if examined.

But I did like ersi's "while really being a hyperpartisan basket case of bs brainwash flush" locution! He's much more creative than Kamala Harris! Still: If brainwashing is bad, wouldn't a flush of bs be good? Or did he just mean that Hanson didn't do well with the flush?!
I think he meant the latter: It would take an industrial plunger to unstop the toilet that is ersi's political mind.
But that may be due to his ancient -and deficient- logical machinery. He did say that everything Hanson said was a lie — that's his major premise; he feels that any example of what Hanson says (after that) is the minor premise, and the conclusion must be that whatever he said must be a lie. Y'all know ersi: If he asserts something, you'd damn well better agree it's true — else you're, well, not ersi! That's a sin, you know... :)

I also noted myself that I'm not in debunking mode this weekend. So, I can seriously doubt that you read the post you are responding to, as per your usual....

Anyway, the lies are blatantly obvious. Take for example his pushback against the fact of insurrection. He is not "factually incorrect". He is lying his head off.

We have been over this, you and I, and concluded that facts have no effect on you, so why bother at all. And as I said, he is unimportant because he does not work for Trump or Project 2025. Still, it's really bad for an academic to wallow in deceit this way. I'd understand if this partisan grift of his were for some pragmatic partisan purpose, but it's far worse when it's lies without a reason to lie.

thought OakdaleFTL about ersi. But not everyone here is ersi — although ersi thinks they are! :)

Hanson is a classicist, a historian who focusses on military history. Sure, he taught at Fresno's State University — not prestigious...[1] Yet people listen to him (although he speaks without passion.). He's a long-time member of Stanford's Hoover Institute. And a successful author. And a -mostly- successful farmer. [2]
What ersi means... Well, he doesn't usually say. He rants and raves or "hand waves", and gets vicious -in words- if one doesn't succumb to his bullying.

ersi, what do you believe? What and who do you support?
And some people can't go beyond prestige to find cogent thought, let alone truth!
In California's Central Valley, that counts for a lot!

I recall you saying that you were called to military service (back when Estonia was a Soviet vassal) and you hid away... When I was young I was subject to the draft (during the Viet Nam war) and I jointed the U.S. Air Force[1]
What would you fight for?

Forgive me for saying so out-right, but I suspect it would be something petty...

Well, governments often screw everyone who isn't an insider with clout. The U.S. Congress managed to lose the war for South Viet Nam — and it only cost them 58,00 American lives. And close to 2,000,000 Vietnamese lives, before and after. Ah, well!
That's politics!

As far as I can tell, you -ers- think politics is just fine! And you hate anyone who say "No! It ain't"
As I reported to the recruitment center at the end of the enlistment procedure, the sergeant finally requested my draft card; I said I didn't have one! He said I had to go get one and surrender it. So, I did. When the clerk at City Hall asked why I hadn't registered before, I answered "Before now I hadn't intended to serve in the military."
She -sort-of tut-tuted and gave me one; which I duly surrendered to the recruitment sergeant, and was inducted (i.e., I joined).
No one asked for my views on the war. But had someone, I'd have mentioned that I'd seen the aftermath of a "peace" rally (riot) and been caught up in its aftermath. Having thought about the pros and cons of the war, I thought it was a noble cause.
Having seen what a "peace" protest/rally was (mass looting and random mayhem), I had no qualms.

I suspect your experience, ersi, was different: You likely had the cowardice of your convictions! :)
