So, if I'm pretending to do the work, then it's my reputation taking the hit when the work is low quality, right?

I think that when the fascists are overthrown, we will need a Nuremberg style special tribunal. The Roberts Six need to be summarily arrested and held in jail pending trial.

A FAIR trial with lawyers and rules, to be sure, but one where there is no immunity, no pardons are recognized, and there is no ex post facto defense.

@MaryAustinBooks

The guy making surveillance tools for the regime wants to compromise? OK, he can have a fair trial in front of the special tribunal. That's the compromise position.

This is yet one more argument for a special tribunal for Trump and everyone who collaborated.

The premature death of Trump --- by which I mean, Trump dying before his criminal trials are all finished and his civil fines are all paid --- would be a terrible thing.

What this country needs, what he owes us, is the opportunity to prove all his crimes in open court with sworn testimony, creating an undeniable permanent record. We have to be able to identify every corrupt act, every lie, and every accomplice, in the #InternationalCriminalCourt or some new tribunal.

None of these countries needed coup, war, or economic collapse to solve their dictator problem.

“Historians have a word for Germans who joined the Nazi party, not because they hated Jews, but out of a hope for restored patriotism, or a sense of economic anxiety, or a hope to preserve their religious values, or dislike of their opponents, or raw political opportunism, or convenience, or ignorance, or greed.

"That word is 'Nazi.' Nobody cares about their motives anymore."

― A.R. Moxon

Lindsey Graham must be added to the list of fascists and collaborators who escaped justice.

I keep my will in the freezer. It can be expected to survive a house fire, at least long enough for the fire department to respond. I'm curious to know what happens in a wildfire, where one can't expect firefighters will necessarily show up. Does frozen food burn to ash with the house? (Idle curiosity. I am not in a fire zone.)
