So wait, I don't get it. She won the democrat primary. This does not mean she gets another two years as I understand it. She still has to win the general in Nov. The crazy left like her. As I understand our elections this only giver her the right to go to the election as a democrat.

That district votes 70-80% Democrat. The Dem primary effectively is the election.
[Ynet] U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar held off a well-funded challenger Tuesday and won the Democratic primary in her congressional district, putting her on track for re-election in November along with other members of the "Squad" of four liberal freshmen.
Omar defeated attorney Antone Melton-Meaux, who had accused her of prioritizing her celebrity over her constituents, and several other challengers, the New York Times said.
One of the first two Muslim women to be elected to Congress in 2018, Omar won 57.2% of the vote Tuesday compared with 39.4% for Melton-Meaux in Minnesota's 5th district, the Times said. She is likely to win again in November in the solidly Democratic district.
Clearly her district wants her despite her many negatives — or the Democratic Party machine does — so no sympathy when they get exactly what they voted for.

This bites - I want to see at least one or two of these Squad clowns lose. Unfortunately Ayanna Pressley (D - MA 7th) is running without a opponent for the Sept. 1st primary here in MA (Tlaib and AOC already won their primaries), so it's 0 for 4 in the first round of voting.
[NYPOST] A pair of pro-cop groups are suing Mayor Comrade Bill de Blasio ...cryptocommie mayor of New York and for some reason a Dem candidate for president in 2020. Corrupt and incompetent, his qualifications for office seem to consist of being married to a black woman, with whom he honeymooned in Cuba. He has a preppy-looking son named Dante, whose Divine Comedy involved getting his back hair up when a police car drove past him slowly. New Yorkers voted for him, so they deserve him... after being denied a Blue Lives Matter mural akin to the one Black Lives Matter had splashed across Fifth Avenue, The Post has learned.The lawsuit, filed late Monday by Blue Lives Matter NYC and Standing up for NYC in the Southern District of New York, accuses de Blasio and Department of Transportation Commissioner Polly Trottenberg of violating the groups’ First Amendment rights by allowing "city property to be used by private speakers" — yet forbidding a similar mural supportive of cops.
"The ’Black Lives Matter’ message is highly political and is generally understood by the public to be and support a general anti-police message, include some extreme measures as defunding the police and ending police activity," the suit reads.
Blue Lives founder Sgt. Joe Imperatrice told The Post on Tuesday that he simply wanted "to be granted the same privilege to bring to light a cause that we so believe in would change the trajectory of equality for all those with the same interest.
"Certain politicians have gotten away from equality and fairness for all and have given the privilege to certain groups," he added.
The co-founders of Standing up for NYC, Jason Cohen and Tatiana Davidoff, said the mural is meant to honor cops and boost morale.
[NYPOST] If "unprepared" reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown ...home of Al Capone, the Chicago Black Sox, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel... Mayor Lori Lightfoot ...the diminutive and vacuous Heronner da Mare of Chicago. When the corpse count rises she blames the guns, which are banned anyway... can’t get crime under control, the feds must be called in to help, a Windy City politician is urging in the aftermath of a chaotic night of riots and looting.Brian Hopkins, an alderman who represents parts of the downtown area, blasted Lightfoot in a statement to CWBChicago Monday night.
"Our city was devastated by widespread looting and rioting for which our mayor seemed totally unprepared," he said.
He also accused Lightfoot of offering "nothing but rhetoric and blame," just like she did after similar riots in May.
He demanded she come up with a "safety plan that will protect all neighborhoods and small business owners."
Anything short of that and "I am strongly in favor of asking for federal assistance," Hopkins said.
"Our city cannot afford even one more night of rampant and uncontrolled criminal activity," he said. "This has to stop. And it has to stop now."
[NYPOST] The Democratic National Convention on Tuesday unveiled a schedule of speakers including NY Gov. Andrew Sonny Cuomo, firebrand ...firebrands are noted more for audio volume and the quantity of spittle generated than for any actual logic in their arguments... Rep. Alexandria Boom Boom Ocasio-Cortez Dem Congressgirl from da Bronx in Noo Yawk and leader of the Mean Girl Caucus in Congress. One of the Great Minds of the 21st Century, she is known as much for her innaleck as for her dance moves. She is all in favor of socialism, even though she's fuzzy on the details. She was the inventor of the Green New Deal, though she doesn't talk about it much anymore... , Crooked Hillary Clinton

[Federalist] For nearly four hours Tuesday morning, the full D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals drilled attorneys for Michael Flynn, the Department of Justice, and Judge Emmet Sullivan on a wide range of issues, from the scope of Federal Rules of Criminal Procedures 48(a), which provides that "the government may, with leave of court, dismiss an indictment, information, or complaint," to the constitutional doctrine of separation of powers, the propriety of mandamus, and the need for Sullivan to recuse from the Flynn case Seems the Circuit Court wants to prevent Sullivan from further obvious judicial abuse and looks for a quiet and subtle way to get this done without acknowledging the abuse.

Our junior high shop teacher used to give us a dope slap if we were doing something stupid. It was a quiet and subtle way of saying "Don't be a dumbass!"
#2
Imagine the drawing of straws for which jurist had to take Emmet aside and say "Uh, you're making us all look bad..."

It's either that or have to go through his case history and retry everything.

It seemed that the Appeals Court's main concern was whether or not the proper process was followed by Flynn's team. They did not like dealing with a mandamus claim regarding one of their own. The judicial jury was stacked in favor of Obama and Clinton appointees. IMO the Bushes’ appointees were probably not too thrilled either with having to deal with the proceeding.
As far as lying goes, if you love your family, it is likely that you might admit to lying to the FBI—particularly if there were an implied threat to send the son to prison. However, there is a question of whether lying even happened. Jensen’s probe uncovered substantial exculpatory evidence withheld from Flynn and his attorneys that established that the FBI agents did not believe Flynn had lied during the interview.
Out here in the peanut gallery and cheap seats, it appears that little concern was given to a flawed and illegal counter-intelligence probe led by Peter Strozk. The Mueller investigation was largely based on made-up information provided by Trump’s political opponent—this appears to have been known a priori. The FISA problems were document by Horowitz.
There has been discussion in some of the media about the disappearance of the “original” FD-302 form required by the FBI when they perform an interview. Some of this is discussed: Here and here.
It seems to matter little that it is O.K. to commit felonies to go after fabricated felonies (or process crimes). It seems to me that something is terribly wrong with our established legal and judicial systems where this has been allowed to occur. There has been a corruption and weaponization of these systems largely under previous administrations.

They will have it both ways - strike down the mandamus order by saying there are "other remedies still available" to Flynn and the court, but also force the case from Sullivan because he has made himself a party to the case thereby disqualifying him from being the judge.
the case gets assigned to a different judge, the DOJ applies for dismissal, and the whole thing goes away quietly.

A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
