8. Attorneys' fees? Surely you are joking.

This is a flat-out fascist administration. It is led by lying perpetrators of the murder of citizens of the United States, of the beating of citizens of the United States, of jailing and disappearing citizens of the United States. These "men" will never face justice. That $50,000 may well be replaced by another $50,000 as a bonus because of the murder.

Bounty on the heads of American citizens, anyone? Not specific citizens, mind you. Just citizens.

And Fox "entertainment journalists" like Smirky Watters will get yet another raise from Rupert for being an insensitive mofo.

And the whole damned mob of unAmerican fascist supporting dribble-heads known as MAGA will drool onto their weak chins and burst into laughter next time ICE attacks and physically harms an American citizen -- oh, hell, it just happened again in Mpls where the masked and uniformed thugs attacked people on the grounds of a school they were raiding, both to catch and torture some brown people and for the pure and simple fun of starting a confrontation so they could use their gas and clubs --- and then go back to barracks with stiffies over some old guy or woman they'd beaten bloody.

No. None of these subhuman agents of a subhuman President will ever need to hire an attorney to defend them in court for the kinds of crimes they were hired to commit. They will be rewarded. I expect the plaque the nazi-bastards in the Republican House refuse to display in honor of the courage and pain suffered by the Capitol Police on January 6 will be replaced by one "honoring" these storm-trooping morons of ICE. Plaited in gold, of course.

(Sorry for the rant. I've seen too much in life not to become outraged by the ugly cloud that Trump and Miller have hanging over America -- and how easily millions of Americans have praised that cloud as sunshine.)
