If you hear someone saying that they hope lawyers are ready to go to court to protect free and fair elections, I suggest you let them know that my law firm is already litigating more than 80 voting and election cases in 40 states.

Just reading the compact edition of #Batman/ #Superman in the Public Enemies story and finding stuff that is in no way relevant
The top half is a gold text block from a comic book. On the left is Superman’s S-shield. Next to it it says “There is a madman in The White House”

The bottom half is another gold block from a different page. It says “If I am guilty of one mistake, it was putting my faith in the American public not to vote for him”
