   All I was saying is that on the state level, when voters are choosing whether they should be retained or not, most judges will get retained.  Throw in the fact that it's Cook County, a democrat judge is almost always going to get retained.  When Cynthia Brim can get retained, anyone can get retained.
And if republic Jonathan Kobes can get nominated and confirmed by the Senate-- presumably a more rigorous and thoughtful process than a popular vote--anyone can become a Federal judge with a lifetime appointment.
If you think for one second that I am comparing the USA to China you have bumped your hard.

You absolutely know - as does almost everyone on this board - that the two words "George Soros" are a Fox News right-wing dog whistle. If all you guys wanna plead ignorance, I will have no trouble agreeing.

My bigger point, however, is that it is interesting that anytime I, or 82, or Muta, or a couple others make any reference to politics, even peripherally, we hear from the mods. For others? It's a little different.

Derangement exists on both sides of the aisle.... just replace Soros with Koch and right with left.

IOW, you can’t play the victim when you’re a cog of the the two-party autocracy. 
Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny.  Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.

You dont live in Wisconsin then.  Koch brothers are still to blame for everything here.

Except for everything that is Fox Conn's fault.
Have some patience, FFS.

I have no argument with that. Has nothing to do with the point of my original post, however.

City sued Mr. Smollett today for not paying the reimbursement.  Suburban police chiefs vote no confidence in Kim Foxx.  Calls for a special prosecutor to investigate.  This story will have legs for some time.

Agreed. The Daily Caller will generate ungodly amounts of ad revenue by never letting it go. It will be in the subject line of racist grandpa chain emails following FW:FW:FW:FW:FW:FW: for decades to come. I can't wait!

Will this coincide with the investigation into the oranges? Or is this all the same thing.

Chicago Tribune and Sun Times are not the Daily Caller.  This is a nasty case with both sides not yielding.

seems to be some type of privilege here, but i can't quite put my finger on it.  all i know is if i tried to pull something like this, i'd be in the cross-bars motel and paying back more than "reparations" to the city of chicago

Video released in last few days show Mr. Smollett still had the rope around his neck while at his home when the police arrived.  Potential new charges could be brought by special prosecutor.  A judge has also made a ruling that Ms. Fox's actions were inappropriate.  Will justice be served here?

I had completely forgotten about this case until I saw it pop up on the super bar. Thought I'd check in on a prediction I made a few short months ago:

Agreed. The Daily Caller will generate ungodly amounts of ad revenue by never letting it go. It will be in the subject line of racist grandpa chain emails following FW:FW:FW:FW:FW:FW: for decades to come. I can't wait!

I like Maddon having worked with him for two years, but not a Cubs fan.  I get my struggles with the Halos.
