“A Nevada City woman protesting in Grass Valley last week was arrested after allegedly vandalizing a pickup truck sporting pro-Trump decor and resisting arrest, authorities said.
Bailey Marie Albers, 22, is alleged to have caused between $400 to $1,000 in damage, ripping off a Trump 2020 flag mounted to a toolbox in the truck’s bed, scraping the side of the vehicle, and throwing away mirror covers, police said. Reports state she was charged with felony vandalism and a misdemeanor count of obstructing an officer. She’s since been freed on bond.”

While everyone is distracted by the riots Durham is a busy boy, bad news for the TDS set. Indictments in time for the election, how delicious. –
Attorney General Bill Barr told Fox News’ Bret Baier in an exclusive interview aired Tuesday that Americans will be able to recognize “some” of the names under investigation as part of U.S. Attorney John Durham’s ongoing probe into federal surveillance abuses — and that he is “very troubled” by “what has been called to” his attention so far.
Barr asserted that despite the coronavirus pandemic, the Durham team “has been working very aggressively to move forward,” and that there “will be public disclosure” of his findings. Part one of Baier’s interview with Barr aired on Monday.
“I think before the election, I think we’re concerned about the motive force behind the very aggressive investigation that was launched into the Trump campaign without, you know, with a very thin, slender reed as a basis for it,” Barr told Baier. “It seemed that the bureau was sort of spring-loaded at the end of July to drive in there and investigate a campaign.”

Check out the Trump signs as this group mocks the death of Floyd George by staging a neck pin down as a counter to a Black Lives matter rally in New Jersey yesterday. It was staged by several white men who had gathered near a sign that said “All Lives Matter” and in front of a pickup truck draped with an American flag and a pro-Trump sign.
Trump for President and American flags surrounded the staging.

Well Gregory why don’t you keep score and post your info regularly on RR. Compare it to indictments and convictions of Nixon and his staff. This will refresh you:
There were 69 people indicted and 48 people—many of them top Nixon administration officials—were convicted. Toss in Spiro Agnew who resigned in disgrace after taking bags of cash while sitting in his VP desk for political favors.
That’s the Republican legacy the Obama Dems need to surpass so support Georges contention that Obama was more corrupt than Nixon .

The man was appointed because the judge that ‘appointed’ him knew that’s exactly what he would say.

The confession was coerced. The FBI agents that interviewed Flynn said that Flynn didn’t lie.
The Justice Dept is dismissing the case. The judge has no authority to try to further prosecute Flynn.
