It’s About Time!
The featured photo is way overdue. It’s about time.
CNN talking head Alice Stewart tweeted this yesterday:
I don’t see any discussion of the facts surrounding what was the second crime that was committed and how this relates to that.” Fmr. Atty Gen Bill Barr
Crooked former AG. Shut up.
We will see if the Manhattan DA just helped Donald Trump get the GOP’s nomination.
It is pretty clear that the GOP is not disputing the facts in the Trump indictment. They are just disputing the fact that he was indicted.

This is the definition of a sore loser in politics. The fella who lost in last night’s supreme court race in Wisconsin. From Newsweek.com:
A conservative candidate for Wisconsin Supreme Court is raising eyebrows by refusing to concede after losing an election to his liberal opponent, who he says is not “worthy.”
Daniel Kelly, who previously served on the state’s high court after being appointed by Republican ex-Governor Scott Walker in 2016, lost by a clear margin to Democrat-aligned Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Janet Protasiewicz on Tuesday.
And this:
Kelly acknowledged that he had lost the election in a fiery speech to supporters, while lashing out at Protasiewicz and specifically refusing to concede to her.
“This didn’t turn out the way that we were looking for,” Kelly said. “I wish that in a circumstance like this, I would be able to concede to a worthy opponent. But I do not have a worthy opponent to which I can concede.”
Sore loser for sure.
