This is pretty sad IMHO. NonAv was one of those special places where people from around the world can input their thinking - and that is a pretty good idea. The loss of that input is the really sad part of the decision.
Jump to postThank God for a sane judge from Washington. Texas judges scare me these days - keen jerk idiots who will crawl on their knees together the lifetime job.

Jump to postThis is the start of an interesting year or two. If Trump actually believes that he is innocent then he should push hard for a very fast trial - that would get it out of the way before the election. Same with all of the other potential indictments.

Jump to postThe one who actually needs to realize this is Trump himself. Good luck with that, he couldn't be less self-aware.
