Everything that is happening in Los Angeles could've been avoided if folks had listened and voted for the sane and qualified black lady.

I remain unclear why members of law enforcement are supporting Trump after he pardoned people who attacked and caused the deaths of police officers.

President Donald Trump has ordered an investigation into pardons and other executive actions issued by his predecessor, Joe Biden — launching an unprecedented effort to show that the Democrat hid his cognitive decline and was otherwise too mentally impaired to do the job.
What Trump ordering an investigation into Biden's actions might mean legally and politically

Just a quick, pictorial reminder of what happens when the national guard and military are deployed in response to protests….

The ABA rejects efforts to undermine the courts and the legal profession. Read full message: www.americanbar.org/news/abanews...
We speak today on behalf of the legal profession and its members who seek to live by the oath each took upon admission to the bar. We reject efforts to undermine the courts and the profession. We will not stay silent in the face of efforts to remake the legal profession into something that rewards those who agree with the government and punishes those who do not. Words and actions matter. And the intimidating words and actions we have heard must end. They are designed to cow our country’s judges, our country’s courts and our legal profession. These efforts cannot be sanctioned or normalized. There are clear choices facing our profession. We can choose to remain silent and allow these acts to continue or we can stand for the rule of law and the values we hold dear. We call upon the entire profession, including lawyers who serve in elected positions, to speak out against intimidation. We acknowledge that there are risks to standing up and addressing these important issues. But if the ABA and lawyers do not speak, who will speak for the organized bar? Who will speak for the judiciary? Who will protect our system of justice? If we don’t speak now, when will we speak? The American Bar Association has chosen to stand and speak. Now is the time for all of us to speak with one voice. We invite you to stand with us.

I'm old enough to remember when the US used to vote AGAINST Russia and North Korea on United Nations matters.

I’m proud to have served 25 years in the Air Force JAG Corps under Presidents who weren’t convicted felons and SECDEF’s who didn’t have to payoff women for their sexual misconduct. It’s a disgrace that 3 honorable men serving as Judge Advocates General were fired by 2 dishonorable assholes.
