[Embracing conservatism within the ranks of the Republican Party is becoming harder by the day. And remaining a conservetarian therein is almost impossible. The California Repubs have issued a major retreat call to their members. They have announced the next capitulation from their party platform that is yet another “humiliation the more than 5 million registered Republicans still living behind enemy lines in the Golden State probably weren’t expecting, (and which) is an additional stab in the back from their own party. The California Republican Party recently released its regularly scheduled updates to the party platform (here), and, given the content of the changes, voters could be forgiven for mistaking it for the Democratic platform from a couple decades ago.” gjr]

Paul 9:44 – It is probably beyond your limited intelligence to understand that being against the govt leveling false charges against an American citizen is something you should be in agreement with.
It doesn’t matter if it is Trump or Joe Blow or even you.
It’s wrong.
This isn’t about Trump – it’s about our govt turning into a banana republic.
The same with Biden – he’s just a cheap, chiseling, little crooked liar and corrupt politician. Has been for years. We can survive that, but our nation can not survive a govt that not only allows him and his family to operate that way openly, but also actively protects and promotes him.

People who are actual lawyers have pointed out that nothing he did was illegal.
They are trying to make a collection of legal acts illegal by throwing in a “conspiracy” charge.
I pointed this out with a link to an article by a lawyer who is no friend of Trump.
But of course you don’t read links to anything you don’t agree with so you remain ignorant.

Again, you need a grammar correction… the word you were searching for was/is “Your”, not “You’re”.
I may be the only person in your world that says and does what I say and do who isn’t a Trump supporter, meaning I have never voted for him and have never donated money to his cause.
He’s been on ballots a total of four times in Nirvana County, two primaries and two general elections… it’s a matter of public record in primaries what ballot you asked for and since moving to NC I’ve only voted in Libertarian primary elections… you’ll have to take my word for not voting Trump in the two general elections here and that I won’t be voting in an upcomin’ GOP primary in 2024.
“I also assume that you would support him issuing pardons for all those convicted for participating in the Jan 6 insurrection promoted by Trump.”
There was no insurrection on Jan 6 2021, punch, I thought you knew that. How can one tell? None of the tresspassing rioters brought their guns.

You have proven you have no desire or ability to “talk about” anything. You just want to regurgitate left-wing talking points, declare that I must read exactly what you dictate, refuse to answer any questions, and refuse to follow any links I might provide.
The charges are bogus along with all the other “charges” they’ve thrown at Trump, including the idiot impeachment charges. It’s all law-fare and it’s immoral and it’s detrimental to the health of our Republic.
Whatever else you think of Trump, it is plain he was a threat to the corruption in DC and they needed to destroy him. That’s what this is all about.

And our legal expert Emery has the answer for everything. Again, what is your legal experience in dealing with criminal grand juries, other than reporting (if you want to call it that) on grand jury proceedings. I am not going to give you my resume, other than 32 years in the legal system and having participated in a lot of criminal grand jury proceedings. I am not going to give you anymore because there are a lot of people who are in prison or have been in prison because of my work.
As far as your reporting on criminal grand juries, there has only one criminal grand jury convened in Nevada County in approximately 25 years and besides they are closed sessions and not open to the press.

I did say at the time that I was told when I applied for Social Security benefits after my wife died that because I had the obviously original documents, they wouldn’t have to go to the county of my birth and pull my original birth certificate.
So, if I’d produced a digital certificate like Obama did, they’d have to send an agent to pull the original… Sauce for the Greg should be sauce for the Barack.
