Senile Singer still not understanding that naked photos do not prove "Biden Crime Family Corruption," as was the story fed to the low level gullibles.

They love you for being so easy to fool!

Mush brains can't talk about real things that happened.

T hey are required by their handlers to believe the lies they are told, and to pass them on until the real thing that happened comes out to the publc.

Like hunter's laptop is russian disinformation even with all those naked pics of hunter lying naked with a prostute. And all those documents of crimes he and the fake potus committed with China and Ukraine and all those fraud accounts they set up to hide the millions they laundered thru those accounts.

And for ten yr s they were told the walls were closing in on Tr ump. Now that the walls are REALLY closing in on the biden crime family.. that's another REAL thing that is happening they aren't allowed to believe or talk about.

It also looks like they are allowing Gonzales to sue every government official involved.

Does this mean because Trump got away with beating and raping a 13-year-old that everyone can get away with it now?

It seems they also lowered the threshold to prove political retribution.

It was an 8-1 ruling that says justice should still be fair and not selective.

I find the timing of this decision very interesting.

The Supreme Court on Thursday reversed the Fifth Circuit's decision, finding that Gonzalez's research showing that the statute under which she had been charged had never been used in her county to prosecute someone for "trying to steal a nonbinding or expressive document" was sufficient to support her claim. The Fifth Circuit, in ruling against her, said she needed more.

A Fifth Circuit court tossed her case, saying she didn't present required evidence to advance a "retaliatory-arrest" case that would show others had not been arrested after engaging in similar conduct. She had been arrested for allegedly trying to remove a document from a city council meeting that she claimed she did not realize she had in the first place, and the charges were eventually dropped.

"That court thought Gonzalez had to provide very specific comparator evidence - that is, examples of identifiable people who 'mishandled a government petition' in the same way Gonzalez did but were not arrested," the Supreme Court said in an unsigned opinion, adding that "the demand for virtually identical and identifiable comparators goes too far.
