You Just Can’t Make this Up…

Things just get curiouser and curiouser…It turns out that retiring judge Anthony Kennedy is a lot closer to Trump than anyone really knew.  Justin Kennedy, Judge Kennedy’s son, led Deutschebank’s real estate division that loaned Trump $1 billion when no other bank would.  Because of that relationship, Trump and the father have apparently been VERY friendly, even exchanging pleasantries about his son at the State of the Union address this year.

So, a SUPREME COURT JUSTICE who has a close relationship with the President of the United States has been ruling in favor of that president in very controversial rulings, and may have even stepped down at this time to allow Trump to replace him before the mid-term elections threaten the control by the Republicans.

There is a place for anger, and THIS is it.

They’re Going to Follow the “Biden Rule”, Right? Right?

Anthony Kennedy, the mostly right wing leaning swing vote on SCOTUS announced this morning that he’s retiring.  Trump has already announced that he’s going to nominate a judge candidate from his list of white radical anarchists.  I’m SURE that Mitch McConnell is going to jump in, invoke the “Biden Rule”, and hold up hearings for a new nominee until after the mid-term elections, right?  I mean, since he did the same thing to Obama’s nominee for over a year, right?  After all, Joe Biden suggested that in 1992 for those mid-terms, even though no one was nominated and no candidates were considered…

I mean, after all, McConnell’s going to be consistent, right?  Right?

There is a place for anger, and THIS is it.
