    "On Tuesday, Michigan Court of Claims Judge James Redford said deciding whether an event constituted “a rebellion or insurrection and whether or not someone participated in it” are questions best left to Congress and not “one single judicial officer.” A judge, he wrote, “cannot in any manner or form possibly embody the represented qualities of every citizen of the nation — as does the House of Representatives and the Senate.”

    Your entire job is to literally do that you absolute fucking loser.

      No, no, no, who is he to judge? A matter this judicious and having to do with justice is simply too much for him to make a decision on, it's not like that's the description of his job or anything
