“If the Order placing Dr. Eastman on inactive enrollment were not stayed, Dr. Eastman would lose his ability to make a living as an attorney at a time when other matters arising out of his representation of the former President of the United States … have already caused him to incur more than $1 million in legal fees,” his attorneys wrote in his request this week to the judge in California.

Your honor, while my client appeals his burglary conviction, in order for him to pay for his continuing legal expenses in other burglary cases, we implore you to return his burglary tools.

I've always had a hard time distinguishing Eastman from Clark for some reason. It's probably because the usual clues: 45's DOJ, his lawyer, really bad at job, was at 1/6, pretends 1/6 was hunky-dory, is in legal hot water, probably will go to prison relatively soon - aren't specific enough.

But that photo up top is my favorite photo ever of the radioactive nature of the fallout from Fuckface von Clownstick's reign of terror. Standing handcuffed in your underpants in your driveway is such a comedown from "almost Acting AG at the most exciting end of the United States as we know it," a girl can't help but revel in it.

right? also the time stamp is 10:25 which - whether AM or PM - is not usually a time for 'no pants'.

Liked the post (and your comment) for the photo alone.

You hate to see lawyers treated like that by society. There oughta be a law.

I dunno how many crooked lawyers are running around DC on any given day, but I remember a movie line after Watergate.

"But he's a Harvard lawyer!"

"You can't swing a dead cat in this town for 5 minutes without hitting a Harvard lawyer!"

Poor Kitty!

Whether fifty years ago or today this line is still so appropriate: "Forget the myths the media's created about the White House. The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand."

Y'all -on a related note (is generally dunking on Trump related enough?) I think the DJT stock is cratering right before our eyes. Dropped 13% so far today with a new steep down slope starting to form as this week's trading comes to a close (in 30 minutes). As of this post, it's at $ 40.05. That's below the average pre-merger speculative price median (ish). Trump's original $ 5.6 billion share value has now been cut in half. Unless TRUTH announces they're about to invent cars that run on raw sewage, this company's stock price is headed below $15. Trump's stock could be near worthless in 6 months.

Meanwhile Trump is doing his best to screw himself by being greedy. Trying to take the small number of shares his accomplices in crime were owed for coming up with the scheme and suing them after they sued him to keep him from shutting them out is going to make it very hard for Trump to get permission to sell any stock for at least six months. By then it will be a penny stock. Potentially getting $4 billion or $5 billion wasn't enough, he had to try to get another $500,000. And his attempt to stay put of a Delaware court seems to have backfired and pissed off the Delaware judge when he found out Trump filed his suit in Florida.

I keep seeing these idiots throwing away their careers, lives, families, and dignity... For that fucking guy?

For him?

You deserve all the shit you can eat at the shit buffet.

Shit, some of them are even throwing away their freedom (see: Peter Navarro and Paul Manafort). Even more of them would be in prison if he didn't pardon them at the last minute, like Roger Stone.

It is mind-boggling. Do they think they'll somehow be different than all of the others he has thrown under the bus? That's next-level delusional.

WTF is Eastman a Doctor of? Did he get a Ph. D. in Idiocy?

Everyone, please stop calling Clark an environmental lawyer. He represented BP after the Deep Water Horizon oil spill and the US Chamber of Commerce against the EPA over greenhouse gases. He's an environmental lawyer in the same sense that Joseph-Ignace Guillotin was an anti-death penalty advocate.

He's an oil slick lawyer.

Just name the death cells after him. Charge him a fee every time the death cell's name is shown.

“Everyone knows President Trump loves to write his name in gold letters on all his buildings", Moskowitz said. “But he’s never had his name on a federal building before and as a public servant I just want to help the former president. Help us make that dream a reality.”

Again - FUCKING AWESOME.

"we used to occasionally cut through one on the way to our Intro to Film Theory class"

At first this seems like a fun little detail, but later on it becomes an important plot point.

The quality of the director determines whether or not it will be shown as a flashback.

“…up to the day when they stand before God to be judged, after which they should (if God is taking suggestions) spend an eternity of bad days roasting on a spit over a fire hotter than the surface of the sun while giggling demons poke their butts with very sharp pitchforks, forever and ever, world without end, amen.”

I like your take on the holy word Gary. You wouldn’t have any pamphlets you could leave me, would you?

Public Service Announcement: A bypass is not a heart transplant. I do, however, love a good avocado!

A breakfast place we go to has avocado toast on the menu. I thought about getting it because of all the jokes about libs and their toast, find out what it was like. Then I found out it was avocado. On toast.

It’s not worth the $9-14 they charge. That’s just stoopid. But bread avocado and top. So easy you can do that home for less that $5 and 10. Results vary with your toaster.

Yeah, the place I tried it at put not only avocado but half a damn salad (which fell off in my lap). If that’s how it’s done, never again.
