  2. Wrong again, sir. As you appear to be about damned near everything!

    What you consider "intimidation" is more correctly "appealing to the conscience of doing the right thing" for the future of our country.

    There's an inflection point in the not distant future, where the line charting gwb's rising nuance crosses scat's chart line of falling sensibility.

    It seems pretty simple, Trump is offering pardons for the most extreme acts, anything big and crazy that seems to jump the shark and bend the needle past max.

    I have to ask myself what has the Texas AG Warren Kenneth Paxton Jr. done that he is looking for a pardon in return for?

    THAT SUPREME COURT FOOL'S FILING & THE SEDITION TALK WILL BE TRANSACTIONAL.

    Warren Paxton has just been to the White House and googling I see.. And he has a lot of FBI trouble Trump can fix.

    The suckers are trying to rationalise it as a noble struggle when it's just a criminal looking for a pardon.

    Things are too stupid around here these days. I'll sign off for a week, hope to see this in the new year? Come on Joe, you need a superhero landing, antihero and supe are equal these days. Get medieval.

    • Texas Attorney General Is Accused by Top Aides of Abusing His Office
      Ken Paxton, one of the most prominent conservative attorneys general, is already under indictment. The allegations of impropriety raised in a recent letter draw intense new scrutiny.

      By Rick Rojas
      • Oct. 4, 2020
      Seven members of the staff of Ken Paxton, the Texas attorney general, including some of his top aides, wrote a letter that surfaced over the weekend saying he should be investigated in connection with offenses including improper influence, abuse of office, bribery and other potential criminal acts.

      The scenario was extraordinary, particularly because Mr. Paxton has managed to become a consequential figure in Republican legal circles in Texas and nationally despite glaring accusations in his past. In his first year as attorney general, Mr. Paxton was indicted on felony charges related to securities fraud and was booked in a county jail outside Dallas.

      Even with the charges hanging over him for years — the case has never gone to trial — he quickly established himself as one of the country’s leading conservative attorneys general. He led a charge to topple the Affordable Care Act, which is now before the Supreme Court, and became a high-level supporter of President Trump, named a national co-chairman of Lawyers for Trump. He was one of the few elected officials in the country to secure his re-election while under indictment.

      Now his tenure is threatened by a new cloud of scandal in the letter, which surfaced late Saturday in a report by The Austin American-Statesman and the Austin television station KVUE. “We have a good faith belief that the attorney general is violating federal and/or state law,” the letter said.
