Their endowment of multi-billions means that 30-some million is but a rounding error.

Only unless and until the People get serious and start burning down the fascists homes will these elite tyrants blanche.

My point? It ain’t good news for us until the fat lady sings.

Unfortunately, David Gibson (featured image) and “Grandpa” Allyn Gibson did not live to see it, having passed away after the trial verdict.

As Jacobson notes, however, Oberlin’s agreement to pay up does not include an apology to the Gibson family:

“Inflation Is State-Sponsored Terrorism”—
https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/inflation-state-sponsored-terrorism

And like all good terrorists, “Biden” must conceal, deflect, lie about and otherwise babble all kinds of word salad in order to try to JUST MAKE IT DISAPPEAR.

Because TRUMP.

And like a cat playing with a mouse…
“US Tells Israel Nuclear Deal With Iran Is Off The Table For Now”—
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/us-tells-israel-nuclear-deal-iran-taken-table-report

“For now”. Let’s see…five minutes? Five days? Five weeks?
A “transitory” period of time”?

I guess the whole point is how much trust they can just “make disappear”….

From the NYT about the DOJ appealing the order:

“If the department chooses to pursue an all-out challenge of Judge Cannon’s ruling, then loses on appeal, it risks enshrining a broader and potentially more elastic definition of executive authority in precedent that might jeopardize efforts to hold Mr. Trump, and future presidents, to account.

Daniel C. Richman, a former federal prosecutor and a law professor at Columbia University, said that if the documents case became a referendum on redefining executive privilege, rather than a straightforward criminal investigation rooted in statute and established precedent, it could affect the Justice Department’s expanding investigation into Mr. Trump’s actions on Jan. 6, 2021.

Does the department want “an opinion out there that has a truly expansive and dangerous view of what executive privilege covers?” Mr. Richman asked.”

Why should this make any difference to the J6 investigation? Because the DOJ is trying to make laws by fiat, and essentially overturn previous court rulings about presidential authority by ignoring them?

I hope she recovers and has a few more years because ‘Long Live the Queen’.

Grandson William is already there, and the errant Harry is en route from California.

Her Majesty’s 1st, 2d, and 3d degree relations are converging on Balmoral Castle in the north of Scotland. There’s a class of people who are in satisfactory shape until the week they die.
