On 9-28-23, the Washington Post penned that, "The small group of House Republicans who might force a government shutdown" and on that date the Enlightened Prisoner responded thus:

I can't begin to tell you how unprofessional and immature the loud-mouthed obstructionists of the Republican party have become. We don't need term limits; we need a national referendum that tells a current crop of politicians about our loss of confidence in their abilities to govern.

    On 9-27-23, the Washington Post penned an article that: "Sen. Menendez pleads not guilty to federal bribery charges", and on that date the Enlightened Prisoner responded thus:

And today's top story...

Is it about Senator Mendacious, or House Speaker Mendacious, or Supreme Court Justic Mendacious, or Former President Mendacious?

And just when is the media going become truthfully objective instead of hiding behind neutral?

    On 9-24-23, the Washington Post penned an Analysis | "Fox News viewers love Trump. Newsmax viewers idolize him", and on that date the Enlightened Prisoner responded thus:

Or, as was said by Mark Twain, "It's easier to fool people than to convince them they've been fooled."

   On 9-23-23, the Washington Post penned, "Justice Clarence Thomas reportedly attended Koch network donor events", and on that date the Enlightened Prisoner responded thus:

These exclusively Republican nominated and confirmed Supreme Court jurists have caused our entire system of justice to now be on international display, and it is sordid. And the Republican party leadership seems impotent for effecting a change. Afterall, they were voted the right of governance, not to merely shrug.

   On 9-11-23, the Washington Post penned "Trump advisers plot aggressive new tax cuts for second White House term" and on that date the Enlightened Prisoner responded thus:

I tire of the Republican's radical right that swings carrots on sticks rather than showing stewardship on governance. They are ill-prepared and quietly harbor an agenda of revengeful design. Well, not in my house!

    On 9-10-23, the Washington Post penned an article, "He was Mormon royalty. Now his lawsuit against the church is a rallying cry", and on that date the Enlightened Prisoner responded thus:

Of course religious organizations solicit and store huge amounts of tax-exempt donor money. They're just another form of an active political party trying to curry favor for dominance.

And just like political affiliation, take the pledge, pass the bucks, and favor a dislike for the competition so you can vote your conscience.

    On 9-7-23, the Washington Post reported that "Justice Kavanaugh says ethics changes may be coming to Supreme Court", and on that date the Enlightened Prisoner responded thus:

'  (Quoted from the article) The Senate Judiciary Committee (likely bi-partisan) advanced legislation in July that would require the justices to follow disclosure rules as strict as those that apply to members of Congress — including more detailed and timely information about privately sponsored travel, for example. The bill, which is opposed by Republicans and unlikely to succeed, would also tighten recusal requirements for the justices and create an ethics code for the high court."

"The bill, which is opposed by Republicans and unlikely to succeed..."

Folks, do you really need a road map of which party is likely to abuse the power and benefits of office? An office of public servants no less. And doesn't this show you how the Federalist Society got it wrong,...all along?

   On 9-2-23, Seattle Times columnist Danny Wesneat penned: "What we could all learn from the Proud Boys trials", and on that date the Enlightened Prisoner responded thus:

But the reality remains that protest opportunists seldom harbor any but demonstrative motives of their own for destructive and malicious acts that have little impact on social justice matters because of spontaneity.

The January 6th insurrection, however, was and remains a destructive act to interfere, obstruct, and deny an official government function by planned and mobilized design and encouragement offered by a voter defeated candidate with an ulterior motive of illegality. And so far, the bulk of those planners, designers and participants are being taken to task for their involvement in legal courtroom criminal justice fashion.

The cause of their cause, again however, remains unaccountable for his actions while taking cheap social media pot-shots at those irascible ankle bitters handling questions of evidence our country has never had to face before in its entire history in order to perfect proper courtroom prosecution.

This is not going to happen according to our desires for action, but when it comes to pass be assured that those public servants on payroll, not on (usually unpaid) retainer hopefully will prevail.
