Good thoughts!

I’d still like clarification about his protective detail, if any.

And I sure hope that there was no one sharing that room with him last night!

A similar situation famously played out in the emergency room at Parkland Memorial Hospital in November 1963 after President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas. Local officials tried to retain Kennedy’s body for an autopsy but U.S. Secret Service agents took the president’s remains back to D.C.

Presidio County has no facilities to perform an autopsy. Medical examiners in Odessa, Lubbock or El Paso rotate the responsibility when autopsies are required.

The FBI, U.S. Marshals, Texas Rangers, DPS Troopers and Presidio County Sheriff’s Office remained on the scene Saturday evening.

Why can’t the commie bastards on the court die when one of ours in the WH?

We have GOT to get a constitutional conservative in the WH to replace the old leftist crones that are sure to be gone in the next four years.

WHATEVER CRAP THEY LEGISLATE FROM THE BENCH AFTER THE HIGH-FIVING COMMIE RAT BASTARD IN THE WH APPOINTS ANOTHER LEFTISTS, REMEMBER...

IT IS OUR PATRIOTIC DUTY TO DISOBEY BAD LAW, ESP BAD LAW LEGISLATED FROM THE BENCH.

You trust him — the guy who likes Pelosi and Reid and Schmucky Schumer and who can work great deals with them — not to give us a Kennedy or a Roberts?

Let’s make sure they don’t bury him at sea before a full autopsy. I wouldn’t put it past the fascists in power to have had him assassinated so that they could tilt the court.

Very shocked! Any word on the cause of death? I realize he wasn’t a babe, but hope it wasn’t a Breitbart.

To: drop 50 and fire for effect

Remember, a third of the Senate is up this year. The Republicans have a 54-46 majority; turning just 5 seats would give it back to the Democrats.

So I think several of the RINOs might find it in their political self-interest to stand tough, just this once, to preserve their seats and those of their GOP colleagues.

He said she’d bee a GREAT Supreme Court justice, which implies he’d look for someone like her to nominate.

Harriet Miers was the one Alito replaced as the nominee, not Roberts.

BTW, I am one conservative who was opposed to Roberts at the time, and I know of others who were.

Especially since, as Cruz pointed out tonight, he argued for the nomination of his former boss, Michael Luttig (as most of us did), and supported Roberts after he was nominated.

Just as teh 6 candidates on the debate stage each argues for his own nomination but will presumably support whichever one is nominated.

You’re not running for President, telling people she should be on the Supreme Court.

“Don’t you CRUZ LUNATICS ever give it a rest.”

Nope. Same way you Trump lunatics won’t give it a rest.
