    Any military veteran SHOULD have noticed Day 1. Regulation funeral service at Arlington. Plenty of tells since. It's a sting op folks, let's talk about that.

    If there is a silver lining to this it reduces the possibility that all these cases will be swept a way if Trump takes office. He might be able to strong arm the DOJ, but the states have a path forward to at least try

    John Adams wrote to his wife: "I am apt to believe that [Independence Day] will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance by solemn Acts of Devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other from this Time forward forever more." This year the 4th is buried by SCOTUS!
