Saved you a click:
Retired federal appeals court Judge J. Michael Luttig.
😐
It’s always the retired ones that find any courage
Read the article. This guy tried to save us in 2020.
They are relatively immune to reprisal. Imagine how weak and scared so many unretired Republicans are to only find their spine when there is no personal cost.
This guy helped save us in 2020 by working to convince Pence to defy Trump and to certify the election. If you are going to save us a click at least read the article and allow us to give the guy an ounce of credit.
Too many people in this thread are shitting on this guy without having read the article.
Extremely important point here. Lots of repubs have stuck their neck out to stop Trump, and they only last the one time. They get swapped with spineless weenies, and lose their jobs.
Good. Keep 'em comin'.
Good to see this from the Republican.
Especially one that saved us in 2020 by working to convince Pence to defy Trump and to certify the 2020 election.
It means a lot less when it's coming from retired, or retiring, Republicans. It's practically meaningless.
Especially when it's a judge, who isn't supposed to be politically aligned in the first place.
Shhh
It's a rare spined Republican, showing hints of balls.

You might want to go back and read the article. He is not exactly spineless and you might want to consider thanking him for actually having one following the 2020 election.
Luttig also came out strongly on the 14th amendment barring Trump from holding office in future.
Great add!
