I sincerely have no idea what he's saying here. Police have a kind of immunity. The Church insulates priests from consequences which is also functions as a kind of immunity. These things are widely recognized to be a problem. They are "justified" by the stature and supposed level of responsibility required to do these jobs. The justification is thin and our efforts to dissolve immunity are righteous.

So, why bring them up?

Trump: But it's a little bit like the police. So you have a rogue cop. You know what a rogue cop is? Very seldom. But you have bad people. You have people. No matter where, no matter what. In the church, you have some people that aren't so good, right? But you have a rogue cop or a bad apple or whatever. And what they do is they make it so that you catch so that it can't happen and therefore everyone else is allowed to commit crimes, murders like at levels that we've never seen before. No, we're going to have to do this immunity for the president. If you have a president that doesn't have immunity, he's never going to be free to do anything because the opposing party will always indict him as soon as he leaves the White House. And you can't let that happen. You can't. Then you can't let that happen. You can't you take away all of the power of the presidency. It'll be a different country.

    @futurebird according to public statistics cops kill about as many people as 9/11 every 3 years or so and injured about 250,000. ~1/6 interactions with police end in violence in the US. WTF that guy means "rogue cops are rare." ACAB

    "EDC" (Every Day Carry) has become a catch all term for men's accessories, jewelry, cool knives, ninja stars and ... fidget spinners? It's a very strange market niche, and a premium item are fancy decorative beads.

    Here are some of the currently popular motifs.

    Zombi Trump
    Einstein
    Jesus
    The Late Great Hannibal Lecter

    I'm very confused. This reminds me of how a certain kind of boy in college always had a poster of "Scarface" in their room. Is that what "Silence of the Lambs" has become?

    Beads of Einstein's head
    A bead of Trump on one side it's a zombi
    Anthony Hopkins in the face mask as in the movie Silence of the lambs... but it's a bead.

    @futurebird maybe a wrist band that just reads "don't break quarantine"? Or "she was right, don't break quarantine"

    @futurebird
    RFK wants to think he's an independent,
    But he's got brain worms,
    Which means he's just
    The host

    Independent man?
    He's a living brain worms host,
    Don't let him get you!

    👀Via Emptywheel:

    I'm with 'paw.

    Not a single participant in a Trump-related case (or Hunter Biden's) has avoided life-altering threats. You can't do this to people serving their civic duty.

    nycsouthpaw:

    Another Lawfare editor has posted a thread—based on pool reports—compiling copious personal identifying information for all six seated jurors. It’s so dangerous, at least as I perceive the character of the movement, I don’t even want to link it. WTF are we doing?

    @GottaLaff which lawfare editor? Certainly not on the lawfare site

    GOP pollster Patrick Ruffini pretends AI generated photos show black Trump supporters registering to vote.

    (ETA: no wonder he needed AI, the fictions compound. Black republicans? Republicans registering black people to vote? Black Trump supporters? It's all made up like the star on that "American" flag.)

    (Look carefully)
