A whole lot of people love to hate on the "Blue states" until an emergency happens and our Blue state taxes come flying in to the rescue.
And then, the MAGAts go back to watching radical extreme-right FOX Fascists to hear they must vomit on the radical-left Communist "Blue states" (the only "Communism" is for the richest 1% with tax breaks and loopholes to exploit for themselves to get richer: "it's a big club, and you're not in it." .

'He faces jail time one way or another.' Legal experts say Trump's 'telepathy defense' can't win
Former President Donald Trumps legal outlook is getting worse by the moment, as lawsuits and investigations stack up around the country. Laurence Tribe, professor emeritus at Harvard Law School, and retired federal Judge Nancy Gertner join Jim Braude to weigh in on Trumps prospects in his many legal battles and how it could affect a possible 2024 presidential run.
Hes out of luck, Gertner said.
He faces jail time one way or another, Tribe added, pointing to the espionage charges he faces as a likely downfall, saying his telepathy defense will not work.

It's well understood that from the surface of the Earth the curvature of the planet is not readily visible, but, as you travel higher the shape of the world becomes apparent to a casual glance. So I wanted to actually quantify this in an visual form using Youtube's 360 Video feature, it's obviously best experienced through a VR headset, or a 'Cardboard' style viewer, but you can also use the web browser if you just want to appreciate the visuals.

On this sad 9/11 anniversary, the National Security of the United States weakens every second...
... that treasonous civilian criminal isn't locked up for life and not cooked to tell the FBI AND the IC what he did with the national-security secrets he stole.
