Great recap Ms E! The proverbial shit is about to hit the fan and not in a good way for the Gop and all their Russian/fascist sympathizers. Once Kamala is elected its crucial IMO that Garland ramp up and lead, follow or get out of the way pursuing a lot of these actors so we arent worrying about it again 4 years down the road. After all, our democracy is still clearly at stake. Thanks!
You should write your own version of Page Six more often ALTHOUGH I am delighted with your passion for Notes because you are my go to source for breaking news. Kudos, Lorriane.
Oh, honey, Page Six of the Times may be the grande dame of gossip columns, and sure, it’s got history, but let’s be honest, she’s been wearing the same pearls for decades. Now, *you*, on the other hand, you take those pearls, smash 'em on the floor, and turn them into confetti! The way you write the news? It’s like you’ve strapped us into a rollercoaster, handed us a martini, and said, “Hold on tight, we’re going full throttle!” You’re the rockstar headlining the news arena, while Page Six is...well, just sipping tea in the corner. That’s why the comparison came to mind—because you make news absolutely irresistible!
Lorraine Evanoff: First, very well written, and thoroughly covering a wide variety of critical issues!
Thank you so very much for sharing.
The real news with Mark Robinson is that the pornographic site KICKED HIM OFF for violating THEIR standards, in that he claimed to be a Nazi and related hate speech.
Imagine that. Mr. Robinson violated the site's standards!
As a lawyer, though, I view the reporting about the chief justice, John Roberts, as particularly disturbing. Sex scandals come and go. Even demagoguery -- including racist demagoguery -- can subject the offender to sanction.
But the Supreme Court is a sacred institution. At law school (1970-1973), I was brought up on the jurisprudence of Learned Hand, Felix Frankfurter, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Louis Brandeis, and, not least, Benjamin Nathan Cardozo.
I have read beautiful reasoning by our greatest Chief Justice, John Marshall.
At his appointment about 20 years ago, I had great hopes for CJ John Roberts, even knowing that I disagreed with him on a whole host of issues.
Why? Because, everything in his biography told me that CJ Roberts had a real love of the law.
This decline into power politics is the most disappointing to me in the failure of our institutions.
I especially admire your handling of Garland’s restraint… perhaps one day the story of the lives he saved will be made public. This has been no ordinary, run of the mill can of worms. The perps MUST go to Prison; and they will under our newly elected Madame President, who will be experienced in having served successfully under all three branches of our government! Nice post, toots 🫵🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👊
Isn't it crazy how something big is hitting every day now, Robert? That news about D’Esposito, and Chutkan's ruling both came out today after I submitted my piece last night!
Exhausting. The House of Clowns just retired after hearing a 1 hour whitewash by Loudermilk defending tRump’s conduct on J6 and they couldn’t gavel out quick enough! He took an illegal tour of a group to the capitol the day before taking pictures all over when it was closed! Somebody needs to respond tomorrow, like Raskine.
Thanks for reminding me of the epoch’s incredible shit-show Lorraine, hopefully the other denizens of the country have been made aware of all this fuckery!!

Well said, and I agree Tom. All this news is perfectly timed and orchestrated.
I appreciate your support of Garland. Chess is not checkers
Exactly! I appreciate your support of Garland and not falling for the propaganda machine too, Malcolm.
Same.
😻

Oh is Page Six a Substack? Thanks Gloria! That means so much coming from you. 🩷

And for what?
An Orange Carnival-Barker!
Wow Armand! I didn't realize that about Robinson getting banned. Wow.
But, I do believe SCOTUS overplayed their hand and will be re-balanced.
Yes, beautiful summation. So much happening. Ready to vote BLUE and start the healing.
It will all keep coming out too, Lisa. Can't wait either!💪🏻🌊💙
I’m hoping that Harris will use the information about the Trump Supreme Court to remove those sycophantic judges 😃.
I think this is a real possibility Ed.
Yes, thank you. My question is this a spy novel noir or does it end with a black fairy godmother?
Ha! Great question. It's more like One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest!
Thanks for putting everything in a nutshell😺
The nutshell is growing! Thanks for reading and commenting SusanLouise!

We know when we're being manipulated. Love you toots!
“…….. for the greater good?….”😲🤞🤔
We can get the rights to this phenomenal script we call our country?
Ha ha!! The beauty is that it's public domain!
Now something about D’Esposito!
Isn't it crazy how something big is hitting every day now, Robert? That news about D’Esposito, and Chutkan's ruling both came out today after I submitted my piece last night!

Oh wow! I missed that. Thanks Robert.
Thank you
Thank YOU, Larry!
This must be a Trump hotel
Definitely voting blue💙
My hero!💙
A real page turner indeed. The more we know, the more screwed the Republican party and their billionaire backers become. Feeling giddy☺️
Right? What are they thinking?
Thanks for reminding me of the epoch’s incredible shit-show Lorraine, hopefully the other denizens of the country have been made aware of all this fuckery!!
We're keeping close tabs on their shit-show, Patrick!
