Okay, I admit it, the recent “decision” by the morons on the Roberts Supremely Kangaroo Court that allows discrimination really irritated me. Worse? Finding out the whole “issue” they were “resolving” was made up in the first place. That has me angry, and I mean I can feel the physical surge, you know? Really angry. (I’m working on it…)

To summarize, a “Christian woman,” who is clearly NOT a Christian, pretended that, maybe, she would design web sites for weddings but had never done so and the one bit she knew was she didn’t want to risk having to design web sites for gays, none of whom had ever asked her to design a web site for them. She pretended to have standing in the court by making up an event and seemingly picked the name of the gay “offender” from, what? The phone book? Or rather, she and her lawyers cooked up the scheme. Now, thanks to ideological activism, discrimination is a-okay in America again. (Conservative America really sucks!)

You know what? These things – taking a case all the way to the Way-High Court – cost money. Lots of money. How many people can/would spend their own money to get a trumped up case to the Moron Court on a just-in-case basis? I think very few. To me, that suggests backers. Some shadow group somewhere likely paid the attorneys and, hell, maybe even Smith, herself.

There’s pretty wide-spread agreement there’s nothing anyone can do about it. The ruling is the ruling. Here’s the thing: at every level, she and her “legal team” lied to the court. Frankly, I want to know who her backers are/were. Which far-right “Christian” group fronted her as their “victim?” Who, exactly, conceived of the “pretend-offender” plan? (The “gay” man they claimed wanted to get married, despite already being married for 15 years – to a woman!)

Maybe the Court can’t or won’t stay the decision it made based on fraud. But can’t the fraudsters be arrested for perjury? They lied to every court they presented this case to. I thought lying in court, State and Federal, was a crime. Is it? It seems it was a conspiracy of like-minded morons. I think they all need to be rounded up.

I’m very concerned about the idea of Biden packing the court to 13 Justices for some sane balance but I’ve come to believe that if he doesn’t, the country will continue it’s wrongheaded backwards slide to oblivion. These activist ideological idiots are moving fast to do as much damage as they can in as short a time as possible. If they don’t get a case that helps them, they just create a fraudulent one! There can be no better proof that, like it or not, Biden MUST act – now! Saving the economy is good and all but if he doesn’t address this oh-so-corrupt court, there will be no United States to save – at least not the one most of us knew and loved.

I’ll tell you this: If the cons get away with this deception, expect more. They’ve learned if they can’t find an actual case to press, they can just make one up. Cons make stuff up all day every day. The ONE place that has been safe from their crazy is the courts – and now that’s called into question as well. Lorie Smith and her co-conspirators MUST be held to account for their fraud…

Tuesday morning, July 4:
Two headlines from “above the fold” at the Associated Press this morning? Shootings in Philadelphia, PA – 5 dead, 2 wounded, gunman arrested – and Ft. Worth, Tx – 3 dead, 8 wounded, no arrests as of this writing. I know… I write about this a LOT, but it’s not because I’m anti-gun. It’s because it happens a LOT. (There were two other shootings this last weekend, too.)

There are very few better signs that the conservative way is NOT the better way. The carnage in the streets, brought to you by conservatives, is all the proof you need. It’s outrageous. It’s needless. It’s heartbreaking. Frankly, it’s embarrassing. Thanks, Kangaroos. Your Heller “decision” was…well…killer…

It was way, way back, um, three days ago when I wrote about the Christian bigot named Lorie Smith who “won” a case in the Roberts Supremely Kangaroo Court that allowed discrimination, so long as you did it in the name of Jesus. She thought maybe she would, someday, start to design web pages for weddings. She’s never DONE that, of course, but she might some day.

BUT, she did not want to risk having to design a web page for gays so she sued Colorado to stop a law that said she couldn’t discriminate – even if Jesus said. Colorado tossed her suit, saying she didn’t have standing. Not only had she never designed a web page, the court said, but she had never been asked to do so by any gay folk.

Suddenly, her attorney had an example: a guy named Stewart who wanted to marry a guy named Mike. Case proceeds, moron Kangaroos rule 6-3 (of course) that discrimination is a-okay. So, intrepid reporters go looking for Stewart to get his reaction. Turns out, Stewart never asked her to design anything. He certainly doesn’t need a web page for a wedding – he’s been married for 15 years. Oh, and he’s married to a woman. Kinda indicates a lack of gay, right? He didn’t even know his name was in the documents that supported the case.

I’m no lawyer, but I understand the ruling is the ruling and the fact that the ruling was based on a case that never happened by a plaintiff with no proper standing doesn’t change that. To my mind, that really sucks. Now you just KNOW the cons will be making up anything they can think of just to get some issue into the courts so the Kangaroos can press their religious agenda on all of us. So now people are free to discriminate, just like Jesus wanted.

Methinks our “good Christian” might-be, maybe, someday web page designer may have borne false witness, and I know what her oh-so-special storybook says about THAT! Thou shalt NOT. (According to the story, that’s direct from the Big Guy…)

The best indicator of how these super-duper (pseudo) Christians actually feel about their invisible super friend and the rules of their favorite book (they’ve somehow never read) is the evil they perpetuate on Earth without one second of regard for how it might impact their eternal souls in the afterlife. They’ve been told, flatly, their Lord God Almighty will set them on fire if they do things like bear false witness yet this bigoted buffoon blithely and easily lies. Apparently, she’s not worried at all…

I’ll tell you this: actions speak louder than words and that ought to tell you something…

A shooting in Wichita, Kansas left 7 people shot – and 2 more trampled during the rush to escape the nightclub. A person has been detained for questioning.

Meanwhile, another shooter, this one in Baltimore, tried harder. HE got 30 people at a block party. 2 dead, 28 wounded, 3 critically. Police are still looking for the shooter.

America’s been looking for a new identity since the class war was launched. I guess being number one at killing each other is…something. Before we settle on that, though, any other ideas? Please?

Okay, so, according to USA Today today, the IRS has a whistleblower named Gary Shapely who knows without question that the investigation into Hunter’s tax issues was interfered with by the administration in power. He also said that if the investigation had gone the way he wanted it to, it “could have, potentially,” led, eventually, to Joe.

The cons are really, really pissed that Hunter “got off” with just the same punishment as others caught in similar situations. They just don’t understand why Hunter wasn’t executed immediately and his father right along with him – just for good measure.

So, I’m reading through this article and I come across this confusing bit in reference to Shapley’s charge: “He also alleged that while former President Donald Trump was in office, Shapley’s team was prevented from taking further measures that could have brought the investigation to Hunter Biden’s father, the sitting U.S. president.”

So…it was Trump’s people who interfered with the investigation in an effort to protect Joe Biden? That’s what the “IRS Whistleblower” said. Oh, and the plea deal Hunter reached was with a Trump-appointed US Attorney, David Weiss.

Of course, cons in Congress, specifically, Jason Smith of Missouri, then claimed the whistleblower implicated the Biden White House. They’re going to have an “investigation!” Well, bully for them.

The cons think they’re “evening the score” by “investigating” every delusional fever dream they suffer. First they fielded – and elected – the most corrupt person in the history of our once great nation. Then, as his crimes unfolded, one after another, actual, criminal investigations were launched. It turns out, that’s what happens when evidence of a crime is uncovered. Trump has already lost the cases that have come against him and they’re really adding up.

Busted for stealing from his kids with cancer charity. Busted for lying about paying hush money to a porn star. His company was busted cooking the books. Busted for sexual assault with a follow-up case close behind because he can’t shut his stupid effing mouth. Trump’s rap sheet is already as long as any petty crook – and he STILL has charges out the wazoo to deal with.

Crimes in New York, crimes in Georgia, crimes in Florida, and crimes in Washington, DC? That seems like a national “crime spree” to me. So, of course, his supporters – yes, he STILL has “supporters” – want revenge. They need something, anything, to balance the scales. For clarity, it doesn’t actually have to “balance” anything. They just need something with some teeth to whine about. Somebody gets video of Joe Biden jay-walking and the conservative press will treat it like the most egregious, heinous crime of the century.

I’ll tell you this: The self-proclaimed “party of responsibility” simply WILL NOT take responsibility for anything. BUT…I’m okay with them investigating everything they can pretend to think of. It keeps them from moving forward with any of their other, inherent evil goals…

As usual, the Roberts Supremely Kangaroo Court waited until they were absconding for their three month vacation to toss out their most reprehensible work. (By the way, $274,000 a year, before bribes, and they only work nine months? I think I’ve found some of that fraud, waste, and abuse cons are always on about…) Anyway, “No” to trying to help people with their student loans, “No” to Affirmative Action (unless you’re white or rich), and “No” to gay rights (so far).

Truth? I’m ambivalent about the student loans. On the one hand, I think higher education should be taxpayer funded. On the other hand, they DID take out the loans. On the other hand, it’s not like these loans were freely made choices. People these days are told they deserve to suffer financially if they don’t have a college degree. It’s kind of an “at-the-point-of-a-gun” thing. Besides, college is over-rated. Outside of the sciences, there are other, arguably better, paths to learning, like tech schools. I’m also old enough to remember that when student loans were becoming a thing, part of their appeal was that they were offered at reduced interest rates. (I think mine were at, like, two percent.) THAT is actually the help I think people should get: reduced interest rates – seriously reduced…

The cowardly court also ended Affirmative Action for minorities at colleges. Their excuse was, they pretended it violates the Equal Protection Clause of the Constitution. Of course, that’s the opposite of the truth. Attacking formal Affirmative Action for minorities leaves plenty of unwritten Affirmative Action in place. Others have already pointed out, they ONLY ended Affirmative Action for minorities and the not-so-rich. Legacy admissions, where the kid gets in because a parent got in, are still a-okay. Donor admissions, too. Build a building (or wing) on campus, your kid will get in – and pass with what is politely referred to as a “Gentleman’s C.”! That’s not only a guaranteed admission, it’s a guaranteed outcome. Minority considerations never guaranteed outcomes. The information is still coming in but I’ve already seen reports showing that states without Affirmative Action (and I live in one) show greater racial disparities in college admissions so…SMACK-DOWN of the minorities. (I wonder how many of the Kangaroos got into college because of Affirmative Action…)

The worst, though, is the gay web page controversy. No, the web page isn’t gay. There’s this hateful bigot (Christian, obviously), Lorie Smith, who wants to design wedding web pages but NOT for gay people. (I suspect she’s afraid that even the sight of gay people might overwhelm her desires and send her spiraling into a world of sin, sin, sin – but that’s just a guess.) SHE says her all-knowing, all-powerful, god-like, invisible, super-friend will effing HATE her and set her on fire for all time if she does unto her fellow human beings as she would have others do unto her. She really seems to have missed the point of Jesus’ teachings but… The Kangaroos agreed.

The moron Gorsuch wrote that the First Amendment “envisions the United States as a rich and complex place where all persons are free to think and speak as they wish…” Sure. Unless you’re gay, right? THEN discrimination is perfectly acceptable. Religious idiots still insist gay is a choice. They have to. Otherwise they have to explain why their “god” creates human beings everyone is supposed to hate, hate, hate! If he’s all powerful, can’t he just NOT create them?

The “court” tried to hide the evil of their choice by limiting the damage to businesses that engage in creative pursuits. Writers, photographers, artists, and videographers should be allowed to discriminate but, say, a restaurant should not? Why not? If cooking for a black person violates my oh-so-stupid religious beliefs, and I’m a very “creative” cook, why should I have to cook for someone my “God,” dislikes? (And, fortunately for me, my “God” dislikes the very same people I dislike. It’s very helpful.) No, try as they might, they can’t hide the fact that they’ve re-opened the door to discrimination, which, I believe, is the goal.

I don’t believe there’s any difference between gay and black (from a “natural” standpoint). Both are uncontrollable conditions of birth. But you know what IS a choice? Religion. And, hey, I’m a creative type! MY God effing hates religious people, especially conservative “Christians.” He says they keep using His words to deceive and attack people and that isn’t what He had in mind at all…

So now I get to discriminate against Christians? Fair enough…
Or is that not what they had in mind?
