I have contempt for many of the bad political and legal actors who are currently polluting the corridors of power. Let me count the ways:
I have contempt for Chief Justice Roberts whose fakakta immunity impunity decision gave the green light to a criminal president.
I have contempt for the Supremes’ half-assed decision in the Abrego Garcia case. They should have followed the example of the Burger Court in the Watergate tapes case and issued an order demanding immediate compliance instead of remanding the case to the trial court. I suspect that this was done to obtain a unanimous vote and avoid a confrontation with President Pennywise. Fuck that shit.
I have contempt for Justices Thomas and Alito who never met a Trump idea they opposed and are likely why the court kicked the can down the road in the Abrego Garcia case. They can go fuck themselves.
I have contempt for Stephen Miller, a non-lawyer who is driving the Abrego Garcia crazy train. He claims that they won their SCOTUS case. If they’re considering banishing Americans to El Salvador, Miller should be first in line. It couldn’t happen to a nicer guy…
I have contempt for Attorney General Pam Bondi. The only cabinet secretary who equals her sycophancy is Howard Lutnick, the cretinous Commerce Secretary. The malakatude, it burns.
I have contempt for Marco Rubio who is going along with Trump’s attempt to turn America into Cuba North only without the Commies. That makes the Kaiser of Chaos an ugly Fidel Castro. So much for Viva Cuba Libre.
I have contempt for the hypocrisy of President Pennywise, Todd Blanche, and Emil Bove for denying others the due process they took advantage of to run out the clock last year.
I have contempt for the MAGA reporter who attacked President Zelensky for not wearing a coat and tie in the oval office for not doing likewise with the Salvadoran dictator. I guess it’s okay because Bukele wore a black shirt…
I have contempt for a press corps that fails to point out that Team MAGA is using the same playbook in the illegal migrant deportation cases that it used in its election denial cases. They claim to have evidence but fail to produce it because they’re lying. In a word: Contemptible.
I have contempt for a wannabe dictator who attacks judges with lies. Judge James Boasberg is an old friend of Brett Kavanaugh as well as a member of the Federalist Society. If he’s a far left radical, I’m an Atlanta Falcons fan.
I have contempt for the people who caused this nightmare: those who voted for the Trump-Vance ticket without paying attention to the campaign, which exposed the Insult Comedian as a cognitively challenged lunatic. Thanks, you stupid motherfuckers.
Speaking of contempt, it’s time for one of the judges whose orders the Trump regime is violating to bring down the hammer and rule that they’re in contempt of court. We won’t know if they’re bluffing unless their bluff is called. It won’t be pretty either way.
The featured image come from the 1963 classic, Contempt directed by Jean-Luc Godard, one of the heroes of the French New Wave. Contempt co-stars all-American badass Jack Palance. I wanted to use an image featuring him, but how could I not use a picture with a Psycho poster in it? That would have been contemptible.
Repeat after me: Donald Trump is a contemptible psycho.
It’s time to revive a 1980’s protest song. The last word goes to Joan Baez and Jackson Browne:
Shorter Adrastos: Free Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
