A taste from the middle of the thing:

Now, in the radiance of the full Woke gloat, we await Judge Merchan’s sentence, to be announced a mere few days before the Republican Convention in Milwaukee in early July. Jail time at Rikers? Home confinement (with ankle bracelet)? Severe travel restrictions? Reporting to a parole officer? Drug tests? Hey, No one is above the law! It is hard to imagine that the judge will demur from inflicting maximum humiliation on this wanton repeat violator (thirty-four times!) of book-keeping errors. It would tend to interfere with the presidential candidate’s campaign schedule, but so what? Where does it say in the Constitution that an election must be fair?

Or Judge Merchan could suspend all that pending appeal and just allow Mr. Trump to go about his election business free on bail. But why would he? After all the trouble he went to. And all the glory he’s reaping for it. “Joe Biden’s” party has Mr. Trump exactly where they want him, they think: pinned down like a moth in a shadow-box, inert and pathetic. (But, in reality, more like King Kong, chained in the rank basement below the stage of a Broadway theater before busting loose in midtown and upending subway cars so as to devour the little humans tumbling out like so many tic-tacs.)

Expect Mr. Trump’s lawyers to file writs to the SCOTUS requesting expedited attention to the denial of due process issues and the election interference question. The situation is comparable to the year 2000 presidential race, where the SCOTUS stepped in on probable cause that the lower court (in Florida that time) had violated the Equal Protection clause of the constitution.

In the meantime, through the luminescent fog of gloat, perhaps you did not notice that “Joe Biden” took a giant step yesterday toward commencing World War Three. The move was framed as the US gives Ukraine permission to use American missiles to strike deep within Russia. That was a bit disingenuous, you see, because Ukraine’s military lacks the know-how to actually launch the missiles, so American military “advisors” will have to be on hand to do it, meaning US military personnel will commit an act of aggression upon Russia.

#2 ...I recall back in the late 80s a Army Research Institute study that said the education level of the enlisted personnel manning the multiple rocket launcher was insufficient to operate the system. Troops disproved that in Gulf War I.

#3 /\ Men of the ranks possess an uncanny ability to both break things, and make things work. Never underestimate them, you could easily be made the fool.

#6 #3 Absolutely. The same men who will lose AND break the proverbial steel ball bearing will also create a functional field expedient replacement.

#7 Our political "rulers" are of the WW11 variety: They think they can save the world. The world's politicans are using the "squirrel" technique to distract people. Unfortunately it appears to be working. The best that can happen now would be to Nuke Iran.

#16 Some Democrats were suggesting community service and laughing about enjoying watching Trump pick up trash in Manhattan. Hateful D-bags.

Is its possible to move up the RNC Convention to the week before July 11th?
