That was funny. Do it again.
In Texas the legislature passed a law where, if someone is blocking a road in a protest, drivers aren't liable for injuries. Just sayin'.

The creature was a foggin probate judge. There's always an opportunity for corruption or misconduct, but what was she doing, colliding with lawyers to screw orphans and widows? Taking kickbacks to invalidate contested wills?

Every state should pass a law that the rolls are purged of illegal/dead/felon voters every year. Refusal or failure to do so constitutes active treason against the state, punished by immediate summary execution.
[NYPOST] The embattled judge, who was elected and sworn into office in December 2020, was at one point facing a whopping 50 counts of alleged misconduct — the first of which was filed less than a year into her four-year term.[NYPOST] The Georgia Supreme Court removed a county probate judge who was recently arrested for allegedly shoving a cop in a profanity-laden scuffle outside an Atlanta nightclub.
Douglas County Probate Judge Christina Peterson was removed from office and banned from holding any judicial post in the state for seven years after Georgia’s highest court issued its opinion of disbarment on Tuesday.
But it wasn’t her highly-publicized and caught-on-bodycam-footage arrest that led to her removal from the bar.
Peterson, 38, separately "exhibited a pattern of judicial misconduct while in office," the Judicial Qualifications Commission found in a probe into her behavior.
The embattled judge, who was elected and sworn into office in December 2020, was at one point facing a whopping 50 counts of alleged misconduct — the first of which was filed less than a year into her four-year term. Of those, 20 were dismissed, while a hearing panel investigated the other 30.
The panel found clear and convincing evidence to find Peterson guilty of 28 of the 30 counts and concluded that she should be removed from the bench, according to its March report.
The high court agreed and found that Peterson showed a "flagrant disregard for the law, court rules, and judicial conduct rules" — as well as a "pattern of violations" of judicial rules.
In one of the "extremely concerning" violations, Peterson held a woman who appealed to the judge to correct an error on her marriage certificate in criminal contempt. She then sentenced her to the maximum jail time of 20 days behind bars plus a fine "without explanation or justification," the panel found.
She was also accused of letting unauthorized people enter the county courthouse after hours without proper screening and using deputies to work overtime on her behalf with taxpayer money, the court said.
Peterson’s inappropriate behavior extended outside the courthouse as well. She was accused of engaging in "hostile exchanges" with neighbors at her homeowners association meeting, while suing the association.

Her repeated behavior "did not demonstrate the decorum and temperament required of a judge," the state supreme court said in its opinion.
The Georgia Supreme Court did not consider Peterson’s viral arrest Thursday in its determination as it was not part of the investigation. But the accusations against her only further damaged her reputation.
The judge allegedly pushed an off-duty Atlanta cop outside the Red Martini Restaurant and Lounge twice in the chest and was charged with simple battery against a police officer and obstruction of a law enforcement officer.
Peterson interfered with the officer as he was trying to de-escalate a situation involving a security guard escorting a woman out of the club, police said. She allegedly knocked the cop’s hands away from the woman and pushed him in the chest twice during the 3 a.m. altercation, according to the department.
"Let her f—cking go, let her f—cking go," Peterson yells at the guard and police officer, according to the footage released by Atlanta police and obtained by local outlets.
The judge was quickly handcuffed and placed in the back of a police cruiser, where she shouted expletives and refused to give her name to the officer.

When I was an ink stained wretch, I worked with an older guy who said newspapers - and other news outlets - should be banned from using the terms "public money, federal dollars, etc." The only allowed construct should be "money the government took from people who earned it on threat of being sent to jail."
Likewise, the construct "former congressman (or other officeholder)" should be banned. The correct phrase should be "So and so, who was rejected by the voters (or cashed in on a lobbying gig, or both)"

So, Frank, that's 10 News in San Diego, huh? Funny they should run a story like that. Some folks might question whether it's even newsworthy since Kinzinger is just a private citizen now and not even from San Diego. I'd say his only claim to fame is that he and Liz Cheney were the only Republicans on the J6 committee and, as a result, they both lost their seats in Congress. But the folks at 10 News never miss a chance to take a swipe at Trump no matter how unimportant the story really is.

I've gotten to where I can't stand watching any of the ABC, NBC or CBS channels. I think the best way to treat those people is to turn the TV off. But Mrs. Uluque still watches that nonsense so I caught a glimpse of Kinzinger as I was taking my beverage out to the patio.

[NYPOST] Far-left Rep. Summer Lee (D-Pa.) claimed on Wednesday that she’s never heard of Jocelyn Nungaray, the 12-year-old girl whose murder — allegedly at the hands of two illegal Venezuelan migrants — has ignited fresh calls for tougher border policies.
“I don’t know who she is. I live in Pittsburgh,” the Pennsylvania Democrat [said]
I don’t know who she is. I live in Pittsburgh,” the Pennsylvania Democrat told Fox Business reporter Hillary Vaughn, when asked about the Nungaray’s torture and killing in Houston last week.
“I live in Pittsburgh. I don’t know anything about it,” Lee reiterated, when pressed by the reporter, before ducking into her Capitol Hill office.

According to The Times, which usually avoids printing profanities, Trump then "poked his finger in his chest and told him to deliver to Mr. Kinzinger a vulgar message about what he should do with himself."
The Times reported that when Porter told Kinzinger of that conversation, Kinzinger "laughed and invited Mr. Trump to do the same."
