Okay, who put her double in her place? This actually makes sense. There comes a point when you have to admit you’ve failed and shut it down. This is not the Poor-ro we know. So who did it? Can we stand the excitement of her saying “no more”? Is this done? We have no need to respect her since she’s another imbecile, but this borders on *gasp* normal (for us, at least). (Apologies for not getting this out yesterday.) With gratitude to Raw Story:

A top Trump administration prosecutor is reportedly throwing in the towel on the president’s retribution campaign against six Democrats who warned service members not to obey illegal orders. The case against the six Democrats crumbles after a federal grand jury unanimously rejected the prosecution, dealing a major blow to the Justice Department’s unprecedented attempt to charge lawmakers over a social media video.

Took her long enough. This nonsense has gone on for much longer than it needed to be. Trump was doing all this blathering and wanted the Democrats brought up on charges, and he would not let go of this idea. Well, if he can go on and on with his crap, they had every right to say something! It seems that the First Amendment only applies to him. It’s past time to put this to rest.

The lawmakers targeted — Sens. Elissa Slotkin of Michigan and Mark Kelly of Arizona, and Reps. Maggie Goodlander of New Hampshire, Jason Crow of Colorado, Chris Deluzio, and Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania — all have military or intelligence backgrounds. U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro’s office has decided to drop the case entirely, NBC News reported Monday, citing anonymous sources. The grand jury’s unanimous rejection sent the clear message that there was no probable cause for charges. Legal experts have blasted the effort as a politically motivated attack on free speech.

Well, gosh and golly, ya think? That was completely politically motivated. We can hope that Pirro can tune out of his whining and complaining. As with the SOTU last night, he never shuts up. Plus, he never lets go of anything. Reminds me of me, except I’m not *that* bad. He’s created a new endurance test. Iron Man Triathlon? Nah, you have to listen to Trump for hours, and nod & smile. Couldn’t do it, nope. And how do you prepare for that? Heck, how did they prepare this to take to a grand jury? Slowly and with cringing is likely.

President Donald Trump had insisted the lawmakers were traitors who committed “SEDITION AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL,” and suggested their actions were possibly punishable by death. Former U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara, representing Slotkin, wrote that prosecutors “could not articulate any theory of possible criminal liability or identify any statute they were relying on that could have been violated.” He later declared the grand jury had spokenloudly, clearly, and unanimously.

Indeed, they did. What a waste of time. They probably weren’t too happy at having to sit through this blatant political backstabbing attempt. Did Pirro try to present this herself? No matter who did, there was laughter in the back room of the jury. And lots of eye-rolling. And disgust. How they managed to get a grand jury for this at all is rather impressive. They could likely all get new jobs under the “stupid grand jury attempts” category. Can you imagine? See you soon!

Friends, I know everyone begs you for money. I promise that among all those asking for spare change, we are the smallest and the hardest-working. We’re a group of old, disabled people, except for one writer in his mid-50s. The rest of us are in our sixties and seventies, and this is a labor of love. All we’re asking for is the chance to keep telling the truth about Trump and help ensure democracy survives. If you can help, please do. Thank you. Ursula
