Just had time to catch up with the news. Before it gets lost in hue and cry about shots fired at the Trump golf course, I urge you to attend to the news of Chief Justice John Roberts’ unusual and aggressive efforts to protect Donald Trump from criminal prosecution. The New York Times broke the store, here https://www.nytimes.com/2024/09/15/us/justice-roberts-trump-supreme-court.html?unlocked_article_code=1.K04.kXFD.AVR1c4n1tAcb&smid=url-share (gift link) and the Daily Beast recaps it here https://flip.it/Wp7VPv .

The reporting doesn’t quite capture the significance of what Roberts did. 1/

How Chief Justice Roberts Shaped Trump’s Supreme Court Winning Streak

Behind the scenes, the chief justice molded three momentous Jan. 6 and election cases that helped determine the former president’s fate.

These votes were 10 days apart.

North Dakota GOP:
•Voted NO on free school lunches for hungry kids😳
•Then Voted YES on free breakfast, lunch, & dinner for themselves🤔

I’m beyond enraged at these cruel backward MAGA extremist politicians. These are the same cruel politicians who suppress the poverty wage at $7.25. We need federal legislation to ensure children don’t go hungry. Absurd. A special place in hell.
