Now I’m wondering…did he ever write screed in which he called for capital punishment in cases of espionage or treason? That would be sweet to use in the lead-up to that trial, which will happen in the fullness of time.

I mean, that was truly a thing of beauty. No gloating, no bravado, no lecture on how she tried to warn us. Just a Cheshire Cat grin, and a damn killer line.

“Mistress of Shade”.

Oh MAN! How different things would have been if she’d taken her rightful place in the Oval Office in January 2017.

Let’s NEVER forget, she DID win the popular vote. By almost THREE MILLION.

Still breaks my heart.

The Exonerated Five: An In-Depth Look at Their Journey to Justice

“It’s amazing to see ‘Gate of the Exonerated,’” said Kevin Richardson, one of the members of the Exonerated Five, in a conversation at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture shortly after the gate’s unveiling. “It’s not just about us, even though we are highlighted in this. It’s about everybody that's been done unjustly.”

For the first time since 1862, New York City’s Central Park renamed one of its entrances to the park in December 2022. Gate of the Exonerated is located along 110th Street between Fifth Avenue and Malcolm X Boulevard.

At that time, TSF was in a media-political battle with then-mayor, Ed Koch (April, 1989). TSF wanted to give the image that HE controlled the City, not the Mayor. He was usurping Koch any chance he could, e.g., fixing Wollman Skating Rink in months, not years. Also getting into the city papers with even trivial events. Koch tried to respond but TSF had a bigger mouth and more media attention.

"The Central Park Five"/Rape was TSF's chance to make his mark. Defending a helpless young woman jogging in Central Park. Railing against a horrific crime. Attacking the criminal justice system for not meting out the most severe punishment. Buying full-page ads versus having a quote published and forgotten. It was all about Trump, not the victim.

The civil war shitheads need to be checked. Don’t break the law or try to start an insurrection and you won’t have any problems.

As a wrongly convicted person like them

It will be the world‘s height of hypocrisy, of course
But I’m pretty sure it’s going to happen
