At first I thought Jeff made a mistake too. But then I realized he was saying Thomas was acting in the way a law clerk for Cannon would act, i.e., providing an outline and script to knock down Smith's position.

Thank you. So much for my knee-jerk attempt at humor. I knew Judge Cannon was super-smart in law school and a law clerk, so I just assumed.

From Wikipedia: "From 2008 to 2009, Cannon served as a law clerk for Steven Colloton, a judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit in Iowa."

She may have put herself into the running for a SCOTUS seat...

Maybe we can convince Barret to step down and replace her with Cannon

ACB has been such a disappointment.

True... but, of course... better by far than the Sotopig, Bulldyke Kagen or token Kunta-Ketangi...

And I am not thrilled with Roberts at all... or Kavanaugh, who seems to have a decided lack in the testicular dept...

Wouldn't it be great if a President who nominated a SCOTUS Justice could also, at will... remove them? I think Koward Kav and ACB would both be gone when TRUMP returns...

I would say I've been mostly pleased with recent rulings. Even if our own case was a disappointment. I just seem to notice ACB ruling the other way a bit on some key issues. Weirdly, KBJ sometimes makes rulings like she has some integrity, and not playing politics on the bench. But then also she rules via the party lines ensuring she is a crazy liberal.

Just use nicotine patches and take Ivermectin at least 2X/month.

Yes, seriously.

I also use Chlorine Dioxide Solution (CDS) daily, but most have never heard of it... Big Pharma calls it "bleach".

I didn't get it until I read the comments. Vaccine injury, I presume.

Yeah, I didn't get it either. I guess I'm too literal.

Being "literal" with Jeff Childers is anathema--LOL!! His pungent wit always aces his commonality - :-)

Well done, Justice Thomas. He has always been my favorite and most respected Supreme, but with this he has risen far and above my former high respect for him. Brilliant!

It was actually Biden, in Senate confirmation hearings, that caused me to latch on to Justice Thomas. I was impressed with Thomas’ fortitude in putting up with it, and very pleased he’s one of the Supremes. My hope is that we don’t have to ever go through any of that again. Ever. FJB.
