Yeah, I wouldn't count out George Santos just yet.  The Deep State maybe trying to derail his journey to become President with the fake news about campaign finance irregularities, but....

That analogy doesn’t even come close to make sense 

It does if his lawyers threw that out there for Trump and not the court.

Edit: Okay, no, that doesn't make sense.

My son works for the water utilities department for the city of Arlington … you just give me another reason to be proud of him.

Thanks.

My son in law is a bean counter for Austin Energy.  I’m proud and embarrassed at the same time.  Seriously though thank goodness for people who give us decent drinking water, take care of our shit and keep the lights on.

Fulton County prosecutors asked a judge Wednesday to jail Harrison Floyd, who is charged in the 2020 election subversion case in Georgia, because of his alleged “effort to intimidate codefendants and witnesses,” according to court filings.

This is the first time Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has asked to revoke someone’s bond in the case.

Prosecutors highlighted Floyd’s recent social media posts about Georgia election officials who are likely to be called as witnesses in the case, as well as his recent comments on a conservative podcast about Jenna Ellis, who pleaded guilty and agreed to cooperate.

“The Defendant’s actions demonstrate that he poses a significant threat of intimidating witnesses and otherwise obstructing the administration of justice in the future, making him ineligible for bond,” prosecutors wrote in the court filing.

....

Floyd, the leader of Black Voices for Trump, pleaded not guilty to three state felonies, largely tied to his role in an intimidation campaign targeting two Atlanta election workers in late 2020. Former President Donald Trump and his allies falsely accused the workers of massive voter fraud.

Floyd is the only defendant who spent time in jail in connection with the case. He was incarcerated at the Fulton County Jail for one week in August before reaching a bond deal with prosecutors.

Prosecutors point to more than a dozen public statements by Floyd they say violate the terms of his bond agreement, including ones directly targeting Georgia election worker Ruby Freeman, who is a witness in the case.

“Since his release from custody, the Defendant has engaged in numerous intentional and flagrant violations of the conditions of release ordered by the Court,” they wrote in their filing.

In a Tuesday post on Floyd’s account on X, formerly known as Twitter, he questions why his team was accused of leaking videos of conversations between another defendant and prosecutors, invoking Freeman.

“Why would my team leak Jenna Ellis & proffer videos when there is better stuff? For instance, Ruby Freeman’s job was the reconciliation of ballots,” he wrote. “She wasn’t even supposed to be on a scanner !!!!!!”

So the lawyer for Misty Hampton, the guy that released the proffer interviews to ABC, doesn't sound great.  He is of the belief that there is a shadow conspiracy to suppress voter irregularities brought forth by whistle blowers, like his client.  He has pointed to YouTube videos in her defense.  

He got his law degree from a for profit school, Florida Coastal School of Law, which has since been shuttered due to accreditation issues.  His small town private practice does wills, divorce law, and criminal defense.  Probably not what anyone would picture as being a guy involved in the legal wrangling of a Rico case involving a former President.

Not sure if it will paywall, so I summarized.

I would toss in that if The Deep State existed in the way that Republicans think it does, and acts in the way that they pretend it does, it would not have let Trump win in 2016, and we'd be talking about who was going to succeed Hillary after her second term.

These are people who say the 2020 election was riddled with fraud, except in races where their people won. It's a complete joke, these are not serious people.

If "The Deep State" existed and operated the way Republicans think it does, the country would be littered with the corpses of Trump and Republican acolytes who dared defy "The Deep State".  Endless instances of cut brake lines, mysterious blowouts on dangerous curves, and falls from tall buildings, all only happening to right-wingers.  Think of their fantasies of what the Clintons supposedly did, writ large.  It is what they tell themselves to justify what they want to do if they gain control.

We used to universally laugh at this sort of thing.  Naturally, the Simpsons sort of predicted it.

 

 

And by universally, I mean the people who liked the Simpsons, which I now recall did not include a lot of people in the, somehow quaint by modern standards, republican party of the time.

To be fair, "Florida Inland School of Law" doesn't sound as legit.  However, the reboot of "Better Call Saul" sounds lit as fuck even if it's just a small-town estate planning practice.

This is an interesting development.  One day you're day drinking boxed wine with Rudy Guiliani, the next day you're calling out your main client and his son's sex life on twitter.  I've said this from day one, she's fucking insane...but dammit...she's got some fight in her.  This gonna get wild.  Where's the Bota?

For the record, there is nothing wrong with small private practices doing normal small practice stuff.  It just shows what a bunch of clowns these people are, that here we sit, likely one of the biggest court cases in our lifetime is upon us, and somehow this guy is going to be at the very minimum a footnote of it.  The fact that he doesn't remotely seem to think that he is out of his depth is right on brand with all these idiots.

Her whole statement…sounds intelligent with self-awareness…she even rocks the chess joke that so many of Trump’s critics have used.  She is not the Jenna Ellis I thought she was.

Don Jr’s pick for press secretary is claiming I am a “disloyal harlot” and “going to hell.” No mention though of Jr’s divorce, his girlfriend’s divorce from Gavin Newsom, or The Best Christian Ever screwing a porn star while his third wife was pregnant.

Apparently true Christianity is not based on belief in Christ as Lord, but rather belief in Donald Trump as Savior, King, and next President! Repent and trust the 27-D chess, guys… personnel picks WILL be better this time!

"They went because they thought the election was rigged."

Because you spent a year telling them that you fucking moron. Then you told them to go to D.C.

Here's the fun part.  Zoom in on a couple of the busses DOT numbers.  You can FOIA the manifest and/or logistics routes.  They were nowhere near the Capitol on January 6th or the days before/after.  Or so the Germans would have you believe.  And the architect of all of this?  You guessed it.  Frank Stallone.  

Seriously though, this is like investigation 101.  Why bother faking DOT numbers when you could just send unlabeled ones with your "FBI Informants"...you know that group of people that not even Hollywood has ever bothered to pretend to invent.

also, did his Colorado counsel actually use the term "Vs." as in "versus" or did he mean to say "vis-a-vis" which would be infinitely more appropriate when talking about a love interest.  But then, Donald is usually vehemently juxtaposed to the women in his life as Hinkley and Christmas were, so I could see it going either way.  Speaking of either way, is the damn simulation even trying anymore?  Did the fucking SAG/WGA strike just turn into some kinda half-ass AI/Botcott or what the fuck?

It wishes it was half as competent and only twice as corrupt as Veep.

I stopped telling people I worked for the gubment a while back due to fucktards who fail to understand what it takes to run a functioning society. 

I know a dumbass who works for the county that will rant and rave about socialism. 

I stopped arguing with donkeys a long time ago.

Yep.  Hell, I went through a brief libertarian-ish phase (fuck you, I also wore parachute pants back in the day, bad decisions that are absolutely age-appropriate are kinda my thing.....shit, wait, does that mean I'm about to dump my wife for a bimbo and start driving a Vette?  I fucking hate Corvettes).

It's just another completely deranged and unrealistic worldview that doesn't account for human nature at all, and presumes we'd have all the prosperity, stability, and safety that we presently have.....magically, I guess, because they sure as hell wouldn't have come along in LibertarianStan.

I had a libertarian classmate in law school who argued (in class) that fire departments and all other public agencies should be subscription based as all taxation is theft. Looked him up the other day and he's assistant general counsel for the Texas Public Finance Authority where his 6 figure salary is covered by taxpayers.

To be fair, if you were to write down all the stupid things I believed in graduate school and compressed it down, it would overflow Surly's database.

People CAN change their beliefs, if they want to.
