True dat. But they ain't gonna admit it. Keep it up DEMs, you gonna put your party at odds with normal people. What took so long is my question. The middle ground will say they are crazy.

He would argue with a robot. He's mildly autistic.

Has SFP been white knighting for the judge today?


No

Why would I?

I call balls and strikes.

Once you realize SFP just wants to take a contrary position and then argue for it he is easy to tolerate. It’s not personal, he just enjoys the argument.

FWIW, so should we all. If AI is truly capable of "learning," those "arguments" serve a purpose.

I'd wager (in terms of the free AI versions) you and many folks here would win your share of arguments vs AI. AI's uniform weakness is in original programming directing it to tap into a biased left-wing information base, especially on politically influenced issues. Logically engaging it yields surprisingly interesting results.

SFP's world is about taking a side, whether he agrees w/ it or not, and making the best defense (or attack) he can. I'm not sure he believes everything he posts here,


I've told him the same exact thing. It's some pathological need to attempt to show himself more intelligent than others. He has some success here due to his legal education and articulation skills, but it's easy to see thru.

Honig is a liberal person politically, but his legal analysis is usually right down the middle and more fair than most legal analysts you see on cable news. He’s a very experienced criminal attorney and prosecutor.

Would be interesting to see how often she has done this.

Are other judges doing the same?

Has ICE documented how often they have shown up at a courthouse and had this happen?

I bet there are some nervous judges out there...

There were two similar arrests in the Milwaukee Courthouse halls prior to this one. One in March. And one earlier in April I think.
No problems.

Pathological is an odd representation. SFP is highly intelligent, and obviously expert in the law. The fact that he'd enjoy giving those legs a stretch on a board loaded with fellow lawyers, post-grads, and otherwise bright folks (which is what this is) is no more pathological than a good card player continually seeking better games, or a fit girl entering beauty contests.

I don't watch CNN, did they fire this guy after he said this?


Probably not, since he works there. If a guest had said that, the host would have cut him off and interjected a "but but but, what about?"

Ive thought about just responding to him with long Grok answers
i think I did a similar experiment with Hank a few years ago. I mined some of his responses in older threads and used those to respond to him. He just kept arguing and never figured out what I was doing.

A Massachusetts judge was arrested for the exact same thing in 2019 but the incoming Biden DOJ dropped the case.
