I'm sure the audiance will be *very* hand selected and there will be no questions about the allegations. Or if there are it will be in such a form to allow Biden a way to easily explain away or blame Trump.
"What do you say about Trump, a proven sexual deviant and assulter, arranging these proven false sexual assault allegations against you?"

Hey Mr President. get some resignations on your desk, and get the AG to start more grand jury hearings. Time to clean house in the Intel Community, FBI and Justice Dept.

More "all talk, do nothing" theater. More tired of this hot air than I am COVID-19.

Early on, Trump said he was willing to pardon Flynn but he would like to this play out in the courts. A lot has come out and been revealed as the result allowing this to happen. Hopefully, General Flynn's good name and lost monies will be restored and replaced...with many coup cabal participants going to jail.

The so called law enforcement people who denied Flynn his civil rights need to go to jail. Fish or cut bait. We as a nation cannot survive without equal justice under law. Last chance, kids.

The closer to November 2nd that it plays out hopefully in Flynn's favor, the better that is for Trump.

Most likely, there will be more coming out between now and November and beyond. Durham's criminal investigation is ongoing and there is a grand jury impaneled according to various news people like John Solomon, Maria Bartiromo as well as others. I don't think the Epstein thing is done with. The Biden's have all kinds of quid pro quo entanglements in Ukraine and China. There is a lot of sleaze and criminality left over from the last administration all the way to the top. Trump has said he not done with what the Dems tried to do to him, the Presidency and the country.
DO WHAT I SAY! *stamps tiny feet, shakes tiny fists*
[SD UT] Gov. Gavin Newsom on Monday criticized Californians who defied the statewide stay-at-home order and flocked to beaches this past weekend, saying that ignoring restrictions could prolong the spread of the coronavirus in the state.
Newsom's comments come after thousands of beachgoers descended on the coast in Orange and Ventura counties despite his pleas last week to avoid the temptation of doing so during the warm weekend.
"This virus doesn't take the weekends off," Newsom said during his daily COVID-19 briefing in Sacramento. "The only thing that will set us back is people stopping to practice physical distancing and appropriate social distancing. That's the only thing that's going to slow down our ability to reopen this economy."
Newsom vowed to increase statewide enforcement of the stay-at-home order if necessary and, in a thinly veiled criticism of the cities and counties that saw crowded beaches, said "we'll have a little work to do to improve upon Saturday."
"You didn't see those images at L.A. beaches and San Diego beaches and [in] Northern California ... because we had strong guidelines that were not only adopted but were abided by, and we had local partners that supported those efforts," Newsom said.
There are tens of thousands of state government who've had quite a few weekends off, not to mention the past six weeks, all whilst collecting full pay and benefits. That's in the face of a sharp decline in sales tax revenue and gas tax revenue, just to name the two obvious ones. How many people do yo think this will cause to run for the exits of CA once this lockdown shit is over, well, more than were already planned?
Face it, Sir Gavin The Gay - your state is financially fucked for the forseeable future. Continuing the lockdown another day / week or whatever will only make things that much worse. Great leadership, there (/sarc).

This good has almost certainly caused more deaths from foregone cancer surgeries and other urgent care that's been denied by CA hospitals during this panic. That's not hyperbole. Surgeon friend just told me he had to drive to a local ER and force them to treat his aged father's abdominal pain he'd been suffering for three days -- they're not permitted to do so because the Boy Governor's ridiculously stringent orders. Turns out he has cancer, so they finally -- after my friend's driving over a hundred miles to confront them face to face and force them to admit his dad and diagnose and treat his symptoms - they finally perform the operation that saves his father's life.
Usually the opposite happens and the patient needing cancer surgery is denied treatment because ... COVID. How many times is this being repeated across the country?

CA municipalities are moving ahead on their own for phased reopening. These will be small steps but the hope is that it builds pressure on State gummint to follow. Otherwise, it's gonna take a whole lot of civil disobedience to get things going.

Bangkok Billy, Dunno what part of Orange County you mean but Republican Brian Maryott from San Juan Capistrano is a viable candidate against radical socialist Mike Levin. He could use a little help.

The people in Michigan and California must feel a little like the crew of the U.S.S. Caine under Captain Queeg.
Captain Queeg: Ahh, but the strawberries! That's - that's where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes, but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with - geometric logic - that a duplicate key to the wardroom icebox DID exist! And I'd have PRODUCED that key if they hadn't've pulled the Caine out of action! I, I, I know now they were only trying to protect some fellow officers -
Umm... naturally, I can only cover these things roughly, from - memory... but if I've left anything out... why, you just ask me - specific questions and I'll be - perfectly happy to answer them... one by one.

California is lucky in that they already know tourists aren't interested in California's shit-deep cities but the tourism to beaches and mountains should mostly return to normal.
NY is in deep as tourists are unlikely to return for a long time.

"#11. Bangkok Billy, Dunno what part of Orange County you mean"
Uhhh.... all of it? 7 Congressional districts are in or touch OC. All 7 are Donks. That happened in 2016. Are there places where a Repup could win? Sure but looks to me demographics are destiny in this case.

Thx Jan. Waiting on a surgery here. This is slowly killing us...
[THEFEDERALIST] U.S. Attorney General William Barr instructed U.S. attorneys to monitor cases of state and local governments infringing on citizens’ civil liberties Monday as municipalities remain on lockdown nationwide amid the pandemic over the novel Wuhan coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague) ...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men... "Millions of Americans across the nation have been ordered to stay in their homes, leaving only for essential and necessary reasons, while countless businesses and other gathering places have been ordered to close their doors indefinitely," Barr wrote in a department memo. "These kinds of restrictions have been necessary in order to stop the spread of a deadly disease — but there is no denying that they have imposed tremendous burdens on the daily lives of all Americans."
As the pandemic brought swift and abrupt change to modern life, millions of Americans have been subject to draconian measures implemented by states shutting down businesses deemed by "non-essential" and restricting citizens’ freedom of movement. In Michigan, the state’s Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer had even barred travel "between residences" and banned the sale of gardening seeds.
The strict lockdowns provoked protests across the country and law enforcement declaring they would refuse to enforce governors’ orders.
"In prior Memoranda, I directed our prosecutors to prioritize cases against those seeking to illicitly profit from the pandemic, either by hoarding scarce medical resources to sell them for extortionate prices, or by defrauding people who are already in dire circumstances... We have pursued those efforts vigorously and will continue to do so," Barr wrote. "Now, I am directing each of our United States Attorneys to also be on the lookout for state and local directives that could be violating the constitutional rights and civil liberties of individual citizens."
Barr had previously indicated a willingness to pursue legal action against states carrying out draconian measures if they did too much to trample of citizens’ freedoms.
The attorney general maintained last week that governors’ orders are only justifiable up to a certain point, arguing that eventually, states needed to take a more targeted approach.
"We have to give businesses more freedom to operate in a way that’s reasonably safe," Barr said on "The Hugh Hewitt Show" last week.
[FOXNEWS] New York has canceled its Democratic presidential primary for the first time ever due to the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague) ...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men... pandemic -- igniting a backlash from supporters of Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders ...The only first openly Socialist member of the U.S. Senate. Sanders was Representative-for-Life from Vermont until moving to the Senate for the rest of his life in 2006, assuming the seat vacated by Jim Jeffords. He ran for the 2016 nomination for president, to be cheated out of it by Hillary Clinton, then went back to being an Independent socialist, waiting for 2020 to roll around... , whose campaign had asked that his name be allowed to stay on the ballot.
The move by Democrats on the New York State Board of Elections -- nixing the election scheduled for June 23 -- followed Sanders’ announcement earlier this month that he would suspend his presidential campaign, rendering former Vice President Joe Foreign Policy Whiz Kid Biden ...You're a lyin' dog-faced pony soldier... the presumptive Democratic nominee.
With this decision, New York became the first state to cancel its primary altogether, though 16 states have postponed their primaries amid the pandemic and many have taken steps to encourage voting by mail.
The announcement drew fire from Sanders supporters. On Sunday, Sanders’ campaign asked the New York State Board of Elections to let his name remain on the Democratic primary ballot, saying doing so would impede "efforts to unify the Democratic Party in advance of November elections."
"It is completely wrong for the BOE to cancel New York’s Presidential Primary," tweeted New York Rep. Alexandria Boom Boom Ocasio-Cortez Dem Congressgirl from da Bronx in Noo Yawk and leader of the Mean Girl Caucus in Congress. One of the Great Minds of the 21st Century, she is known as much for her innaleck as for her dance moves. She is all in favor of socialism, even though she's fuzzy on the details... , who had endorsed Sanders in the race. "This decision is not informed by public health: the state is still holding elections for every other seat that day, & so far the only way your ballot will 100% be counted in NY is to vote in person!"

New York has canceled its Democratic presidential primary for the first time ever due to an utter lack of interest on the part of America voters. An anonymous source in the Democratic Party said, "Nobody wants to vote for these losers. Hell, their own mother's wouldn't vote for them"

That Biden comment the other day about Trump wanting to postpone the election was nothing but Freudian Projection of the Lefts desires when they're in power.

6-1/2 months to election time and the Dems don't have a viable candidate. When the Dems finally choose a candidate, look for a lot of election fraud to try to gain control of the House and the Senate. IMHO, this is unlikely to happen.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
