1. another jewel ...

From https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1328767248903901185.html
way down near the bottom:

“What standard of review should I apply?”

Rudy: “The normal one.”

I can hear the judge’s befuddlement from here. The normal one is not the answer. He wanted “strict scrutiny” or intermediate scrutiny.
Rudy has no idea what levels of scrutiny are. Like he hasn’t heard of them.

3. And wherever he went to Law School..

maybe he should return for some crash refresher courses.. if he's not too busy schmucking up in court.

4. I think maybe the Rude Ghoul's brain has been eaten by MAGAts.

It's a thing that's been going around for 4 years or so, at least.

6. lol.. how true. never ending night

of the almost living zombies.

Ghouliani looks like he's straight from central casting.

Again.. you can't make this shit up.

5. I had to look up that word long ago.

I inherited a number of James Thurber books from my late father-in-law from my first marriage.

Thurber was legally blind. He wrote about trying to see slides with a microscope in a college science class. He called what he saw, "lacteal opacity."

8. Interesting.. I love words. I'd never

heard of that word before but it made me think of "opaque" especially after what the judge said.

11. did not take much to get it is from opaque. like the different forms of contumely. i prefer

contumacious.

10. True story from my freshman History class at Hofstra University in 1977

Prossor, disgusted with our lack of understanding of his point says to class "you are all speaking with opacity."
Kid raises his hand, gets called on and says "Professor Thorn, what the fuck's opacity?"

12. My cousin Guili?

13. He's auditioning for the lead in Mark Burnett's spinoff TV series

from "Our Favorite President" (starring you-know-who).

"Our Favorite Lawyer" features a lovably incompetent lawyer who manages to get the death penalty for his clients, no matter what they're originally charged with. Much hilarity in every episode. Co-stars Jeanine Pirro as "The Judge".

14. Kinda reminds me of Ivanka's level of understanding of the English Language

Remember when she was asked by Gayle King if she was bothered by the SNL sketch calling her new perfume "Complicit," she said:

"I don't know what it means to be complicit, but I hope time will prove that I have done a good job and much more importantly, that my father's administration is the success that I know it will be."

That's......not what "complicit" means.
