  1. Bucket of Blue Bell? We can call it The Bucket for short.
  2. If overturned, the conviction goes away but the arrest record doesn’t. That is why some people seek to have the record expunged. To get it expunged basically means that it never happened. The record is removed and possibly sealed according to state law.
  3. I am thinking Gulf of Blue Bell…
  4. No, a conviction cannot be expunged for a conviction, depending on state law. I am fairly certain that there is no way to remove a standing conviction If it is overturned on appeal he probably can but it if more like a formality. A person who is arrested for DWI in the case is Dropped or a find a person, not guilty, might want his record expunged because it might look bad on a future job application. Everybody knows what happened to Trump and he is not going to be applying for a job anywhere. A person could choose to believe or not believe in the conviction but merely having a court say ignore this really won’t matter to him. in my opinion ….
  5. I feel the need.. The need for spe…. uhhh, TDS incoming.
  6. Yes. Get ready for the rebuttal.
  7. They got what they wanted. A political kangaroo court in order to say that he was a convicted felon to try and sway the election. It was no different than Nancy Pelosi’s scam impeachment after Trump had left office, in another attempt to keep him out of the White House. They knew back then that he would probably win again and used every trick play to keep him out. Obviously neither worked and might have actually fueled his return to office. WTG Democrats!! 🤣🤣🤣
  8. No fine No prison No probation [Hidden Content]
  9. Yeah, that’s all he if doing is trolling. TDS is alive and well. You act like Trump isn’t planning on shutting down the border, start deporting people by US law, start negotiations with other countries over the economy, opening up US offshore oil exploration that Biden conveniently closed in almost the last week of his presidency, closing some of Biden’s electric vehicle mandates, opening up more fossil fuel production and refilling our strategic oil reserves that Biden depleted in an effort to make gasoline prices fall a few cents per gallon when it was his policies that created the problem, continuing the income tax cuts that will expire this year, etc. 😂😂😂 Apparently his trolling, which takes about 30 seconds out of his day and a lot less time that it takes me to post this, is paying dividends. Thanks for playing.
  10. I think that he is having more fun than at any time in his life because he is trolling the media and Democrats (same thing). Next he will claim that he will sign an executive order that will combine California, Arizona, Nevada, Idaho, Montana, Utah and Wyoming so that the entire state will be Republican and without California’s 54 electoral college votes, the Democrats will never be able to win. The funny part will be when the media fact checkers, newly out of work from Facebook, will explode trying to explain that only Congress can do it and blah blah blah. 🤣🤣🤣
  11. Or vice president….
  12. Yep, how the World has turned. Much to the chagrin to the TDS crowd, the Trump Effect seems to be far reaching. I was surprised that Zuckerberg actually mentioned censorship from the Biden administration, mentioned Trump coming into office and then using X for a model. How the World has turned….
  13. In an admission that fact checking was wrong and politically biased, Facebook will now essentially use a system like X instituted by Elon Musk.
  14. Also under Texas law of nuisance abatement, the property can be shut down for a year. I am not talking about just a business being removed but the actual property itself being closed for business.
  15. The police per se have no official presence at those venues. The locations are responsible for their own security and they sometimes hire off duty (not OT) police officers. Those establishments that allow such behavior are breaking state law. They cannot stop an incident from happening, which is typically beyond their control, but by law if it cannot be handled like a bouncer removing someone, it has to be turned over to the police. Many of those locations tend to cover up what happens on their property, including outside of the doors which they are also responsible for. If they have an alcohol license, which is almost a certainty, they are violating their license agreement and can be shut down and/or fined. I have personally gotten a couple of alcohol licensed locations, suspended and on one occasion had the bartender sentenced to two weeks in the County Jail.
  16. In what I watched of his speech, I think he asked what their equivalent to our speaker of the house, to suspend parliament on March 23. If I understand the Canada parliamentary system, that would force an early vote to what we would call the midterm elections. Much like our electoral college, they have to have a majority of members vote for the Prime Minister. They have something like five or six political parties plus independence and no one has a clear majority. For that reason they have to put together a coalition, which would be like the American Republicans teaming up with the libertarian party to try and throw out the Democratic party.
  17. …. but not until they name the leader of the Liberal Party. He is still trying to maintain power for the Liberals. It’s like replacing Stalin with Khrushchev.
  18. The Safe Harbor date was huge in G W Bush being elected in 2000 when Gore contested the Florida results and asked for a recount. The Supreme Court ruled that the Florida recount was unconstitutional under the Fourteenth Amendment. That was because Florida had no standard way of recounting the paper ballots. Was the punch tab counted as a vote if dented, partially punched (the famous hanging chad) or completely punched out? What might be a vote for Gore in one county might be a no vote in another. The Supreme Court voted 7-2 that the recount as undertaken was unconstitutional and therefore invalid. This could be rectified by having a meeting to determine a standard by which vote were counted and to get that information to every single person who had to hand count millions of votes with both a Republican and a Democrat representative, looking at each ballot. The Supreme Court voted 5-4 that it was too late in the process because of Safe Harbor to come up with a standard method and to hand count the millions of votes. The way I read the decision, it basically said that had they gotten together and came up with a procedure of a standard way to recount, it would be lawful. The Gore team argued so long in court by contesting the standard for recounting that they ran out of time because of Safe Harbor. Also, if I remember correctly, in dissent the liberal side of the Supreme Court said essentially, to heck with the law. This is so important that we can simply disregard Safe Harbor. 😝 Law? What law? Anyway, that’s the only Safe Harbor story that I can think of at the moment.
  19. Done deal. There are actually four dates for a president to take office. 1. Election Day 2. Safe Harbor day or the date where a state’s electors must be certified. Basically, any court challenges or recount must be settled within the state by the Safe Harbor date. I think they list the Safe Harbor date as the first Tuesday after the second Wednesday in December. There are then about 6 weeks after the election to count the votes in any state and settle any issues. 3. Certification of the election on January 6th at a joint session of Congress. 4. Swearing in of the President.
  20. It’s kind of interesting that all of the money that was spent on him from outside sources (I think over a million dollars for basically a local election) was to get him to win the Speaker seat again. That much money and influence didn’t come from people because of a safe Republican seat Covey’s big push (also with a lot of money behind him) as far as voters were concerned was to keep Phelan from repeating as Speaker. Although Covey didn’t win, the people who wanted Phelan out were in effect able to keep him from being the Speaker. Not directly but all of the ruckus that was raised almost surely had an effect on the Speaker race and him dropping out.
  21. Internet comments can be so entertaining. Looking at Facebook, one guy claimed that the officer broke the law by jumping into the vehicle to apprehend the woman. 🤣
  22. I don’t use Allstate, but I’m not really sure what he said or meant.
  23. The article says that the driver was arrested for Intoxication Assault. That is a proper charge but I think the DA may seek an indictment on Aggravated Assault/Serious Bodily Injury on Public Servant. That carries up to Life or 99 Years.
  24. What’s that, three in a little over a week? It is not a record but geez. But they can happen anywhere……
