The Deep State War Heats Up :ph34r:

I guess I will put this here..........

 

 

THE GROWING DESPERATION OF OUR RULING CLASS:

 

The Lost 110 Words of Our Constitution.  A friend on Facebook comments:

Well, here’s a Georgetown Law professor and national-security eminence speculating openly upon mechanisms for stripping conservative states of self-governance. In brief, the Fourteenth Amendment provides for reduction in representation for states that unjustly restrict the franchise; the received wisdom on the left is that voter-ID laws and comparable measures qualify; therefore states with them should have their national representation in the Congress reduced.

 

Set aside the empirical weakness of the case: specifically that voter-ID laws and the like have not appeared to suppress voting by anyone in any meaningful way, as the turnout numbers of the past decade amply demonstrate. Focus instead on the intent, which is that Acela-Corridor types are growing increasingly creative — and overt — in their efforts to find means of retaining and extending their rule over the rest of us.

 

If that means casting themselves in the role of Parliament and Crown c.1775, so be it.

 

 

Want to start a legit civiil war? Go down this path.

 

A violent response to such an effort would be entirely justified.

 

I doubt, however, that it will ever be tried, for exactly that reason.

the dichotomy here is very clear.

 

"Though intelligence officials have disputed that the officer who delivered the main briefing said Russia was actively aiding the president's re-election, people in the room said that intelligence officers' responses to law makers follow-up questions made clear that Russia was trying to get Mr. Trump re-elected."

 

so...."intelligence officials" have, apparently,  clearly disputed the claims that the officer who delivered the briefing made any such statements stating that Russia was aiding the president's campaign, isn't enough to dissuade the lawmakers contentions that follow-up questions could not have proved anything of the sort.

 

clearly Adam Schiffty was the lawmaker in question here.

every word before the "comma" negates everything after it.

Jurors in Harvey Weinstein rape trial suggest they're deadlocked on most serious charges

 

I'm guessing the jury believes only one of the victims were raped/sodomized, and can't decide if he raped Annabella Sciorra ~25ish years ago. They need to find that two of the three incidents happened to convict on the Predatory Sexual Assault.

 

Weinstein Guilty of 2/5 charges.

 

Called it. Here is the sentencing options for Criminal Sexual Act 1st:

 

Quote

 

The sentencing possibilities are:

A Determinate Sentence of imprisonment is mandatory. The term must be in whole or half years between 5 and 25 years. The Determinate Sentence shall include, as a part thereof, an additional period of Post-Release Supervision of between 5 and 20 years.

 

 

He will serve 6/7ths of whatever his determinate sentence is before being eligible to be released on his 'good time' date.

 

Edit: Clarified that the sentencing range was for the top charge. Rape 3rd is up to 4 years determinate with 10 years Post-Release Supervision.

HARVEY WEINSTEIN FOUND GUILTY OF RAPE IN LANDMARK #METOO-ERA CASE:

The jury in New York convicted Weinstein, 67, of third-degree rape against former aspiring actress Jessica Mann, as well as a count of criminal sexual act in the first-degree against former production assistant Mimi Haley. But the jury found him not guilty on the two most serious counts, predatory sexual assault, as well as a count of first-degree rape against Mann.

 

“And a reminder that Harvey Weinstein has been indicted on four counts of felony sexual assault in Los Angeles. He faces those charges next,” Yashar Ali tweets.
