Verdict in on Supreme Court; and voters get last word

By Maureen Dowd / The New York Times

WASHINGTON — After Donald Trump was found guilty of 34 felony counts in a Manhattan court, conservatives — including Marjorie Taylor Greene, George Santos ande the Heritage Foundation — began posting upside-down American flags on the social platform X in solidarity with the “political prisoner,” as Trump absurdly styles himself.

It was the same upside-down symbol that insurrectionists carried to the Capitol on Jan. 6 to proclaim that they thought the election was stolen and that was seen flying over Justice Samuel Alito’s house in suburban Virginia even as the Supreme Court was considering whether to hear a case about the 2020 presidential election.

Now that it’s being used to show support for a felonious ex-president, Alito will have an even harder time trying to pretend he’s oblivious about its meaning.

I don’t need a black robe to hand down a judgment on the Supreme Court. It’s corrupt, rotten and hurting America.

What's even funnier is the idea of Maureen Dowd carrying water for the Democrats. She wrote a column attacking Hillary because she doesn't like the Clintons. She won a Pulitzer making nasty, catty cracks about their marriage. She wrote a lazy, superficial, rather mean column on Barack Obama recently that was merely a clutchful of unsupportable observations about what she assumed he had to be feeling. She wrote a series of columns pretending to be Al Gore's bald spot. She so totally emasculated poor Al that she (and that other liberal water-carrier Frank Rich) made him a joke by the time Election Day came around in 2000.

This is the woman who's doing the Democratic Party's dirty work?
