Yes, I’m planning to vote for Bernie Sanders, but I’m going to cut the Rubio campaign a check just the same.  It won’t be much, but, as the Supreme Court said, “money equals speech.” Citizens United v. F.E.C., 558 U.S. 310 (2010). So I’m going to speak in favor of Rubio, even though I am a Liberal. Don’t have a

Madison Gesiotto is a law student at Ohio State, and is also the author of the “Millennial Mindset” column at the Washington Times. (Pause for laughter at the thought of “Millenial Mindset”) She recently wrote a column called  “The number one killer of black Americans.” What is this killer?

There are plenty of news sites reporting this, but we at Popehat, we’re the only ones to give you the hot and bothered legal analysis. Someone at the Bush campaign is about to get

Massachusetts has given the world its fair share of musical greatness.  From the Dropkick Murphys back to Jonathan Richman, The Cars to the Pixies, Aerosmith to Mission of Burma.  Bim Skala Bim to the Lemonheads.  The Unband to the Mighty Mighty Bosstones.  Lets put it this way, your musical life would suck without the 617/413 and later fragmented area codes.

I’m not prepared to get rid of our right to keep and bear arms unless we do get rid of the Second Amendment. But, doing that requires tinkering with the Constitution, which makes me nervous. Once you open the hood, you never know what else someone will fuck with. With the state of our idiocracy, opening the Constitution is just

by Jay Marshall Wolman In asking what to do with this blog, Dan suggested that we blog about the Third Amendment.  Marc actually blogged about a Third Amendment case here and here. If people thought Second Amendment jurisprudence was thin (at least until DC v. Heller rolled around), Third Amendment cases are fewer and further between.  The text reads: No

by Jay Marshall Wolman Though I have my own feelings about how to blog here now that Marco Blanco f/k/a Marc Randazza (what I think his Popehat name should be) has taken up with the competition, I should probably be supportive. His first post there was uncharacteristically Second Amendment focused.  But, he has now seen fit to return to his roots.

by Jay Marshall Wolman Now that Marc is off Popehatting, the rest of you can now chime in on what you’d like to see more of in this space.  Marc is a First Amendment bad ass, hanging out with his peeps.  Me? I think all of the Amendments are important.  Here I am on the 7th Amendment.  Here I am

Yes, some of you guessed it, I joined PopeHat.  Let the conspiracy theories fly!!!

If you are a regular reader, you know that I have neglected the blog, for the most part, for some time. I’m just busy with other shit. Dad, husband, working… so feeding The Satyricon is just too sporadic. But I do love writing my shit. I just think I need to be in a bigger boat. I do play well

I’m not a religious man by any definition of the term, but I’ve always had a place in my heart for Psalm 107:23-31, especially at times like this.

South Carolina representative Chris Corley has sent a heartwarming Christmas card to his colleagues urging them to repent for their sins. Specifically, for voting to remove the Confederate flag from the state’s Civil War memorial after a racist lunatic slaughtered 9 people at a church. Corley’s heartwarming missive invites recipients to think of “a happier time when South Carolina’s leaders possessed morals,

The Man in the High Castle is a piece of alternative history fiction. It imagines an alternate future in which fascist forces won World War II. The Nazis occupy the eastern part of the United States, while the Japanese take up residence in the west. The Italians are non-existent in the series. You would think that they would get Rhode
