Honestly, I hate that the trump org story has shut out SCOTUS gutting voting rights

The trump org story is big, but it's still not trump himself yet.

What SCOTUS did is so wrong and appalling.

Insanity.

Yes, I realize in liberal circles, many are aware, but this should be A block newscast stuff and it wasn't.

Just wait until they overturn Roe in the October session. SCOTUS needs to be reformed by expansion. The right's dream of overturning 50 years of progress is at hand.

When you are afflicted by a life-threatening disease like Trumpism, it is expected that the consequences will be severe and long term. We can only mitigate these consequences, hoping they will go away sooner rather than later with a successful course of treatment. But unless we eradicate the disease itself, the symptoms will persist and multiply no matter what else is being done.

While it's sad to see momentous events like the SCOTUS decision being drowned out by the news of aggressive pursuit of Trump Org, I am not sorry, nor am I surprised that this is happening. It reflects our focus on survival rather than pain management.
