Sorry for the rather indifferent approach to blog posting lately. In the current political climate all I have felt like doing is posting screeds of impending doom which turns most people off. However, on a more hopeful note, justice was served in a courtroom in New York yesterday and it deserves a post.
Donald tRump was convicted on 34 counts of falsifying business records to cover up a scheme to influence the 2016 elections. The American system of justice worked in this particular case, unlike the other 3 criminal trials the newly convicted felon is still facing. Of course, instead of accepting the jury's verdict, tRump and his surrogates immediately went on the attack, blaming everyone in sight instead of looking in the mirror.
We are about to test the validity of tRump's assertion he could commit murder in broad daylight and not lose support among his faithful. My execrable congresscritter, Elise Stefanik, has already attacked the system for holding criminals to account in this case. Many more will follow this dangerous path. It is up to the rest of us to uphold the rule of law on November 5.
