Trump to sign an Executive Order this week dictating 10 year prison terms for anyone destroying statues/monuments.
The sound grab had him mentioning:
. Jesus Christ
. Washington
. Lincoln
. Jefferson

...my radio news just now.

We don't have a dictator. This is not Australia.

The best part is Colbert gets Bolton to laugh at Trump's business failures in the casinos.

"[Do] you know what's going to happen?" asked Napolitano. "[Rolfe] is going to be found not guilty, and that's going to produce a tremendous uproar amongst the people of Atlanta.

"They should have charged some far more reasonable charge rather than one that exposes him to the death penalty," he urged. "It's just not going to work

It was murder.

DEATH PENALTY?

Now there's something that should be cancelled.

This from the person who keeps excusing the killings by police - aka Death Penalty.

I want fair trials.
Fair and balanced...remember.
Rolfe, he could well be not guilty, according to the law that was posted in this forum the other day.
Guilty, the cops must be sentenced under the laws of the land.
At about age 35    I was advised by a co worker 10 years my senior...I respected his wisdom...to:
. Stay right away from the police
. Don't interact with them in any way unless you have to.
. Make sure you obey all laws
. If you have to interact with the police, do so politely and respectfully.

Mr Brooks was going fine...doing the last one well...until he decided to escalate the interaction to violence.

The circumstances of this case demonstrate that mandamus is appropriate to prevent thel judicial usurpation of executive power.”
Quoting truisms now? Hornbook law impressed you? Yes that is the purpose of mandamus. It is also appropriate to prevent the executive from usurping judicial power.

If Trump actually did that he is a bigger idiot than even I thought, which is hard to do.

The plea agreement off a charge like that is standing for 2 weeks AS THE STATUE.

My guess is most will take the ten years

Just glad to keep you focused. As we know the goal of the chastised

Not new, but a fine example of why just obeying the law is not enough to protect these citizens.

McConnell is bitching and moaning about how the Dems would not even allow debate on the GOP joke of a reform bill.

Meanwhile, Mitch McConnell has refused to hold vote on restoring Voting Rights Act for 200 days.

As we know? LOL. Just because Trump personalizes every decision does not mean they are personal. The stature makes the withdrawal of charges a recommendation. Given the circumstances, any judge of my acquaintance would want to delve before accepting the recommendation. Judges hate being lied to. By counsel a d parties.
