One angry Matt brings us two stories from this week\u2019s news:

After taking some time to think about the Supreme Court\u2019s decision that former US presidents can\u2019t be prosecuted for anything involving--or in any way touching on--\u201dofficial acts,\u201d special counsel Jack Smith has returned to a grand jury to obtain a superseding indictment in his DC prosecution of Donald Trump. How has he retooled the charges relating to the January 6th conspiracy? How much weaker will this case be without the many federal government witnesses who would otherwise have been called, and what happens next?

Here\u2019s something everyone should know: AGs in 16 red states are now taking a bold and principled stand against--and this is 100% true--traditional marriage. In a suit filed in a Texas federal court last week, these staunch defenders of our most cherished family values argued that there are at least 550,000 US citizens who should be exiled from not only from their states but from the United States for ten years because they married the wrong person--and that the very existence\xa0of these families is causing their states \u201cirreparable harm.\u201d Matt controls his unbounded rage just enough to break down one of the weakest and most inhumane challenges to immigration policy in modern history before calling out 16 people who should never hold public office anywhere again.
