Kim K would be foolish indeed if she hooked up with a Proud Boy for ANY reason. Two wrongs don't make a right, Kimmie! He's as wrong as wrong can be. Save your businesses and reputation, such as it is, before it is too late!

Do they realize that if they accepted the pardon, they admitted they were guilty? No, of course not.

Are you kidding me?

My understanding was that anyone who accepts a pardon must admit guilt. Is that true? And, if so, wouldn't it apply to this case?

Of course, if the judge is a trumpster then all bets are off.

Of course. It’ll re enforce the narrative that they were unjustly accused

Uh, Mr. Biggs, you don't want Kim Kardashian. She's too high mantainance. Just ask Kayne, or whatever he's calling himself these days.

Don't worry, Trump will have the DOJ settle out-of-court for $200 million.

Trump wants to rewrite history. He knows damn well that he was Instigator In Chief and he hoped enough violence and chaos would delay the Biden certification. He already granted clemency to 1500 frickin lunatics because how can they be guilty if they believed the 2020 election was hinky? What more do you need to attack Congress? Count on Trump instructing Bondi to agree to payments for these thugs. And then the floodgates and an executive order that all 2,000 rioters are victims, were justified in their actions and shall receive payments for their suffering. It’s going to happen. Next to stealing money for himself, Trump loves spending other people’s money to soothe his ego. We are witnessing darkness in America.

Ta, Marcie. I'm not watching any of the videos. We had a wonderful day and I refuse to ruin it.

Someone below mentioned Neil Young and Ohio for very obvious :( reasons, and so I've been listening to Mr. Young and decided you should be also too. Cowgirl in the Sand:

Welp. Sadly I can't say I love this for him because the sadopopulists are looking to kill some people.

So what happened with the mobilization?

Did the Taco chicken out?

It’s not an order under the Insurrection Act. And the law Mad Lord Yam is using to justify this requires the governor to consent to deployment.

This is a powerplay. Newsom made a play for MAGA. He has to be put down.

That's what I was wondering. I thought the National Guard, name not withstanding, was under state control at least to some degree.

It is mostly under state control, and the President does have the power to federalize them under specific conditions. But the way the memorandum reads the legal pretext (protection of federal personnel and property) is one that requires that “Orders for these purposes shall be issued through the governors of the States.”

Also, all this order does is direct the National Guard to provide support in "protection of federal personnel and property". It does not allow the federalized Guard to act on their own to conduct immigration raids, disrupt protests, or detain people. Those are still proscribed under Posse Comitatus.

Depending on how long this lasts, the troublemakers will arrive. The agent provocateurs, the external arsonists, and all of the other undesirables that will take advantage of the situation.

Make sure that Kyle Rittenhouse (and his ilk) stays far away too please.

Kyle's working at a gun store in Milton, Fl., and I don't know if he's been there long enough to get vacation time.
