Georgia The Fani Willis Rule

-

LeBron James coined the 'Rich Paul rule.'

What is obstruction of justice? It depends. Georgia, one of the 50 U.S. states, marches to the beat of its own drum. Own drum? Yes. Georgia is a genius. That is why the Republican Party controls both the House of Representatives and the Senate.

Luckily for me, there’s no way we can talk about Donald Trump without mentioning lawyers. I hope there’ll help me with the definition of obstruction of justice, with reference to Georgia.

The Senate is working on a RICH PAUL RULE, in that state’s legal system. Brief basketball history. Rich Paul is LeBron James’ agent. LeBron is an NBA superstar, so his agent gets a little change from what he earns. NCAA, the cartel that controls sports did not like millions of dollars going to foreign hands, so they tried to change the rule about agents. LeBron James is a man of few words and many dunks. He called that plot to get rid of his agent, the ‘Rich Paul rule.’ It never saw the light of day.

The proposed ‘Fani Willis rule.’

Georgia Senate has set up a panel to look into imagined misdeeds of Fani Willis, the Fulton County District Attorney. Let’s use their own words, “ ……. to enact new or amend existing laws and/or change state appropriations to restore public confidence in the criminal justice system.” It seems like an obstruction of justice to me. Why?

1. The State of Georgia v. Donald Trump is a criminal case in progress. Co-defendants - some of them Senate members - already have mug shots. So, how can Trump’s associates in the racketeering indictment, play judge and jury to the District Attorney who indicted them?

2. Secondly, this criminal case was supposed to start 4 March, but Michael A. Roman, one of Trump’s original co-defendants is questioning Fani Willis’ integrity. That’s is why Judge Scott McAfee had an ‘evidentiary hearing’ about the allegation. We are waiting for his findings.

3. Is it not obstruction of justice for the Georgia Senate to be conducting Part 2 of the Fani Willis rule, before we hear from Judge McAfee?

Elections And Political Bullies

Forget democracy.   It should be called political bullying. We are watching it in the prelude to the Canadian election on the 19 th of October, 2015.   Americans have also started their political bullying for the looming presidential election next year. So many trees wasted on books about democracy.   Some countries have big budgets for invading other countries ‘ to defend democracy’ but it is seldom practised in campaigning for elections.   Calling opponents names and printing flyers attacking each other is behaviour that will not be tolerated in kindergarten, but it is all legal, in campaigning.   It is irritating and such a let-down to the whole notion of democracy.   Grown-up men and women behaving like Grade One kids. It is also misleading because many voters believe it is real hatred.   Don’t let that fool you.   These politicians play golf together, attend the same dinner parties, eat and drink at the same social events, share jokes and cut deals in parliament.   They

Comfort Food As Regret Food

-

Chicken curry. Comfort food is good for the soul, which usually bleeds in winter from icy roads, bad drivers that want to annihilate pedestrians, frozen fingers and toes that take a sabbatical.   What happened to my toes?   I thought I was wearing special socks for boots? We therefore have a right to comfort food which throws doctors’ orders out of the window and has no loyalty to calories.   No calculator on the table, thanks very much.   Piece of bread 5 calories, half a banana 10 calories, sugar-free cheesecake 2,000 calories.   Ah! Ah!  We only live once. Naw!   Comfort food is old school food with its compulsory second helping.   It involves licking fingers and giving a big sigh, about the good life, which is shelter, food, love and debt.   The problem is the zip.   The jeans remind you that comfort food can also be called you will regret food .   Home sweet home is even sweeter in winter after surviving blowing snow and bumper to bumper traffic. What is more welcoming th

Internet Manners

The internet and mama have something in common: manners.   They believe that always say Hi! To people you meet. Home is where the heart is, but it is rough being at home these digital days.   People are so tied up in chat rooms, Instagram, Twitter, FB, YouTube or Google mania, they don’t have a minute to say hi or good night to people they share a toilet or kitchen with. Thank god for internet players.   They say hi to me when I re-open a document after a thirty minutes’ break.   It’s all automated, but it is nice when the computer calls me by my name and encourages me to continue, where I left off. The internet understands that greetings are the definitive ice breaker, before saying mum, I’m hungry or dad, can I have the car keys? Facebook has taken it to the next level because it understands that I live in a strange province where the weather is a headline story, and not what Prime Minister Justin Trudeau thinks about the Keystone Pipeline, so Facebook reminds me of temperatu
