56. For fear of retaliation from "You Know Who"
Sat Aug 30, 2025, 08:49 AM
Aug 2025

It takes a lot of courage to be a federal judge these days. Most of the judges want to rule against Chump, not for political reasons, but because they can see how he's fucking up our government. Even the conservatives are against that, on principle.

Congress has laid down and let him have what he wants, so our only hope is for the federal judges to hold the line. Chump has actually threatened some judges, by implication and by naming them in his social media tweets. It's a bizarre world that he's allowed to do this and get away with it.
