One way to "resolve" the crisis we face is NOT to call an Art V convention

Posted on October 24, 2025 at 9:58pm 0 Comments

Sen Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) said today that a “third term”in office for trump is clearly forbidden by the Constitution. [FN1] She explained that even if a convention is called under Article V and a “new” Constitution is written, still there are steps that must be taken to ratify it. 1/6

There will be no further steps taken and the “new” Constitution that only a fool would think is not already written by people at the Heritage Foundation. Because once called to order, such a convention…

Yeah, Stephen Miller says the last 30 years Robert DeNiro's been washed up

The arts provide moments of escape from an increasingly mordant World. It was unsettling to read that Robert DeNiro referred, inaccurately, to Stephen Miller [FN1] as “the ‘Goebbels’ of [t]rump’s cabinet.” [FN2] [FN3] "’(He's) a Nazi!’ De Niro said.” [FN4] 1/13

Whether X distracts us from Y can be tough. [FN1] X derives strategic value by being so obvious that we cannot see Y. Today there are a lot of X’s, a ton of Y’s & they seem interchangeable. Example: demolition of a big chunk of the White House is in our faces, w/funding > 1/9

detailed, but still opaque, today. [FN2] It’s a crap shoot. Given trump’s failures at running the “house” (i.e., casinos), the outcome bodes ill for us. And then there’s what most people would agree tops…

I can give it a shot. It would be mainly "shoot from the hip", though.
