The Daily Progress:
A federal judge agreed to dismiss Unite the Right organizer Jason Kessler’s lawsuit against the city of Charlottesville and various officials on Friday.
Kessler has filed several lawsuits since the deadly Aug. 12, 2017, rally. The lawsuit dismissed Friday was filed on the two-year anniversary of the rally and claimed that the defendants violated Kessler’s First Amendment rights as the rally turned violent.
Judge Norman K. Moon ruled that law enforcement has no obligation to protect people when other parties attempt to suppress their speech.
“[T]he First Amendment merely guarantees that the state will not suppress one’s speech,” he wrote. “It does not guarantee that the state will protect individuals when private parties seek to suppress it.”

I’ve learned that grief is love - but seen from a different angle.
Grief is all the love you want to give but can’t.
All of the unspent love piles up in the corners of your eyes.
It gathers to make a lump in your throat, as it leaves that aching hollow in your chest.
Grief is love with nowhere to go.
Remembering,
and knowing others have been where we are now
is how we get from despair to celebration.
We will find each other in the darkness
and move the light to where we need it.
Best mother-in-law ever.

Something something 30-foot wall.
Something something 35-foot ladder.
Wow, isn't it amazing how well tRump's wall is working? 😂 🤣 😂 #tRumpsFailedWallpic.twitter.com/A4N8OcwBGB— McSpocky™ 👽🔄🌊 #VoteBlue2020 (@mcspocky) February 20, 2020
And I'm thinking, the application of a fairly simple scissors jack - about halfway up - might even do the trick.

Hit The Button
I guess we can hope they're having good conversations with the appropriate people at SCOTUS and others in their respective supervisory echelons.
With 45* and Barr and the asshole Republicans in congress all lined up to keep pressing towards a full blown constitutional crisis, somebody damned sure better have something up their sleeves besides sweaty armpits.
WaPo:
The head of the Federal Judges Association is taking the extraordinary step of calling an emergency meeting to address the intervention in politically sensitive cases by President Trump and Attorney General William P. Barr.
U.S. District Judge Cynthia M. Rufe, the Philadelphia-based judge who heads the voluntary association of around 1,100 life-term federal judges, told USA Today that the issue “could not wait.” The association, founded in 1982, ordinarily concerns itself with matters of judicial compensation and legislation affecting the federal judiciary.
The walls are closing in on 45* and his criminal gang, and Barr has been busy from the very beginning of his tenure trying to eat away at the system that keeps these assholes at bay.
Push is coming to shove.
Unfortunately, if this continues to go the way it's going - the way it's gone in other places - with the press and certain prosecutors getting closer to breaking things open, we can anticipate an "accident" befalling someone in the not-too-distant future, or maybe the "unpleasantness" will manifest itself as some kompromat.
Fake lord knows what's coming, but something's coming that.
And while that someone may not be seen as terribly important or central to the story, I guarantee whatever shitty thing happens to them will be meant as an unmistakable warning.
If there are still Republicans who aren't completely in the bag already, they'd best be finding their balls in a big fuckin' hurry.
Maybe it's not quite time to hit the panic button, but let's make real fuckin' sure we know where it is.

If you need a clear indicator of how weird it's gotten in American politics, you can hear at least one guy in this video booing women showing their tits.
