BRAGG TO JORDAN ET AL DROP DEAD Last Monday, Trump Toadies Jungle Gym Jordan, best known for looking the other way as Assistant Wrestling Coach at Ohio State while head team physician Richard Strauss sexually molested the athletes whose welfare Jordan waas responsible for; James Comer, well-known for driving his girlfriend to get an abortion after beating her up; and Bryan Steil, graduate of the Paul Ryan School of How Government Doesn’t Work, the three masquerading respectively as Chairman of the Judiciary Committee, the Oversight and Accountability Committee, and the Committee on House Administration, taking orders from Dear Leader after he “truthed” as his Twitter knockoff “Truth Social” that New York District Attorney Alvin Bragg “BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE CRIME OF ‘INTERFERENCE IN A PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION,”wrote to Bragg and demanded that he appear before them to explain why he was making a “politically influenced” prosecution of Dear Leader.
The chance to write a letter like that is almost enough to justify the rest of what you’re bound to do as a lawyer. I did a few, and was especially proud of telling a difficult counterparty that unless it dropped its genuinely silly claims “further inaction on our part might become necessary”.
Hey, all that Jordan and the rest of the GQP morons in Congress are there for in Washington, DC, is to perform kabuki theater productions to convince their brain dead constituents who voted for them that they are doing something about the big boogeyman Deep State monster that is destroying their “Freedumbs” with the assistance of the insanely rich and mighty George Soros as well as the all powerful pervasive influence of the woke radical libruls…that about covers it…That’s why it’s so nice to see someone call these assholes’ bluff and expose them as the clueless nimrods that they truly are. If they were any type of actual Congresscritter they would know about the separation of powers in our government system and where states’ rights (one of their favorite talking points) have the upper hand over Federal government overreach (another of the GQP’s faves).
It was during the cartoon “A Wild Hare” where Bugs derided Elmer Fudd’s hunting skills by calling him a poor little Nimrod, a kinda obscure reference to a Biblical character who was mentioned as a mighty hunter, something Elmer Fudd certainly wasn’t. Over time the name nimrod became a term for an inept, clumsy person. Bugs inherited most of his character from the persona of the cartoon’s director, Tex Avery, then called Fred Avery when he worked for Warner Brothers.
thanks, Dennis. this is exactly the kind of information I LOVE.
for me, one of the great cultural reference points is "Henpecked Duck." the expression on Daffy's face as he approaches the bench never fails to make me laugh HARD. I can also do a pretty good version of his wife's "I want a Di-vo-orce!"
Their “talking points” only work as cudgels to slay sanity. Poor old George seems to be the only billionaire to publicly help Dems, so he’s an easier target than all the oligarchs and dark money flowing into republican war chests. Where’s the “sound bite” in Bragg’s letter…. I like yours
That document reads like an 18 wheeler (at least) running into an actual Circus Clown Car. But with these dumbfucks will they realize what hit them? Surely they have lawyers advising the committee? But then they may be critters approved by Dear Leader, who has very bad taste in lawyers......... Keep it up, TC. I can at least laugh outside while I weep inside........
And furthermore, States’ Rights! Take that, Jordan, et al.! They probably learned from their attorneys that the law was not on their side, but average Republican Joes might be impressed anyway by an aggressive stance worthy of Roy Cohn.
Nice job Leslie Dubeck. She definitely delivered a savvy and polite fuck you to little gym. He and the rest of the lying, sniveling repubs should be shaking in their clown shoes.
In your essay, your closing statement is an accurate summation of District Attorney Bragg’s office's response to the very inappropriate inquiry from Jordan et al.
yup...it was the best part of my brief period spent writing briefs. I'm looking for another use of "briefs" to make it a one-two-three thing but at this hour, all I can come up with is underwear...
It probably felt like playing some house rocking boogie woogie on an old upright, with foot tapping and head wagging the entire time. And with a big keyboard riff at the end.
Beautiful response, including what appears to be appropriate citations by Mr Bragg. The tfg defense fund is expected to be billed steeply to put it in terms tgf can understand. Sad. They could simple plagiarize you TC and go out for burgers and a beer.
The contrast in style between dumbfuck's posts on his vanity social media platform and the letter from the NY District Attorney's office is like the difference between black and white. I can't help but wonder who composes those adolescent posts for that scumbag.
Any tfg posts that are intelligent, well-structured, and written with restraint and an awareness of the law and current intellectual thought and/or standards of decorum are obviously written by someone else. When tfg’s posts are full of capital letters, loaded with steaming piles of schoolyard insults, filled with specious reasoning and incoherent rage, and permeated by defensiveness and self-pity, you know he wrote them himself.
was it like yesterday that he was talking about someone performing a role, but spelled it "roll." was he hungry (as in Poppy Seed Roll) or horny (as in "roll in the hay")? will we ever know?

I laughed out loud.
Damn. I’m gonna use that one! 👍🏻
Please do!
Beautiful, Bill 🤣🤣🤣

I haven't heard "Nimrods" used that way for a long time, and when you used it, I realized how much I missed it.
it certainly applies to Jordan, who's about as close to being a waste of flesh, oxygen and unused brain cells as earthbound life forms get.
You can thank Bugs Bunny for that…using nimrod as a pejorative in one of Warner Bros. Merrie Melody cartoons way way back in the late 30s/early 40s.
I totally didn't know that...I thought it was some kind of 19th century thing.

The whole letter is the "sound bite."
That document reads like an 18 wheeler (at least) running into an actual Circus Clown Car. But with these dumbfucks will they realize what hit them? Surely they have lawyers advising the committee? But then they may be critters approved by Dear Leader, who has very bad taste in lawyers......... Keep it up, TC. I can at least laugh outside while I weep inside........
at this point, do we definitively know whether it's bad taste or just taking what he can get? can we ever??
And furthermore, States’ Rights! Take that, Jordan, et al.! They probably learned from their attorneys that the law was not on their side, but average Republican Joes might be impressed anyway by an aggressive stance worthy of Roy Cohn.

Fun, fun! Enjoyable read.

"In other words, “Drop dead, you dumbfucks.”"
👏👏👏👏👏
Damn, there’s that perfect summation
Never enjoyed reading legal citations so much in my life. Your professional interpretation is hilariously spot on: dumb asses, indeed!
Some legalese is definitely fun.
yup...it was the best part of my brief period spent writing briefs. I'm looking for another use of "briefs" to make it a one-two-three thing but at this hour, all I can come up with is underwear...
It was probably as much fun to write as it was to read.
It probably felt like playing some house rocking boogie woogie on an old upright, with foot tapping and head wagging the entire time. And with a big keyboard riff at the end.
Great description!!
I’m pretty sure it was.
Beautiful response, including what appears to be appropriate citations by Mr Bragg. The tfg defense fund is expected to be billed steeply to put it in terms tgf can understand. Sad. They could simple plagiarize you TC and go out for burgers and a beer.
That was fascinating.

you left out the spelling!
Hahahahhaaa! True! If all the words are spelled correctly and the sentences are grammatical, someone else wrote it.
was it like yesterday that he was talking about someone performing a role, but spelled it "roll." was he hungry (as in Poppy Seed Roll) or horny (as in "roll in the hay")? will we ever know?
it certainly doesn't matter.
At this point I’m betting the onset of dementia plays at least some “roll”
I Laughed Out Loud. and I bet you're right..
Sounds like his brain farts, which he loves to spew ad nauseam.
Now that was a good read!
Some legalese is fun.
As long as you explain it in your usual droll and fancifully-phrased way!

Got it.

Thank you for sharing, TC!!! Best read of the day.
That letter was outstanding!
