The administration and sycophants and mouthpieces have been ramping up attacks on judges who defy Trump. That is true.

That judge defied Trump. That is true.

24 hours after the latest round of vitriol from the White House and right wing media, her house burned down. That is true.

"Where's the proofs it was an attack???" Good grief.

Where is your proof it wasn't? The burden of proof is on them, not on us. I would think that would be abundantly clear to all of us by now.
