OK………………….
Which Democratic Candidates are “these?”
Who should looked into their past?I am on the local Democratic Town Committee, and have been on the State Democratic Committee and have sat on committees that investigates potential candidates, We have rejected candidates because of things in their backgrounds.
5 years ago, the Republicans in my town didn’t do a good job checking out their candidates. They ran a man for Town Council who was under indictment in another state for vehicular manslaughter. He won the election, but before he was sworn in was convicted and sent to prison.
The Democrat mayor of Bridgeport, CT is garbage, He is a convicted felon who served many years in federal prison for stealing money the first time he was mayor. BUT, since convicted felons can get their vote back if they serve their time and pay all monies due, he ran again, He past was known and the idiots in Bridgeport reelected him twice.

You need to get it through your head: Hunter Biden is not and was not a candidate for public office. The two Georgia Republican Senators are candidates for re-election. As such their financial dealings are subject to public scrutiny,I don’t believe in pre-emptive pardons. The US Supreme Court stated in 1915 that the acceptance of a pardon is an admission of guilt. You have no idea who will bring charges against the Trump Clan in the future. If it is a federal prosecutor it may well be a career DOJ employee who has nothing to do with your perceived political vindictiveness.
NO Pardon issued by the POTUS will have any bearing in state charges brought in the future. Why do you think Trump and Melania moved their official residence to Florida? To avoid the NYS Atty General and investigations, to a state that has no income tax and no returns that can be subject to scrutiny and prosecution and to avoid paying taxes due NYS and NYC.
December 6, 2020 4:11 pm at 4:11 pm in reply to: The REAL Logic Behind the Election Fraud Dispute #1926322Ex-CTLawyerParticipantUJM post a lot of accusations with not a single iota of proof and also posts falsehoods.
Rudy Guiliani is NOT America’s Mayor. He was once the Mayor of NYC, he was never the mayor anywhere else.
He is a serial adulterer, a liar, cheat, and senile. He is not representing America, but is Trump’s personal attorney paid to do Trump’s bidding as an individual, not as President.I live in a state that requires Picture ID to vote, unless the voter refuses and then has to fill out a form subject to the laws of perjury, attesting the voter is who he/she says is.
You must show proof of residency to register to vote and attest to citizenship subject to criminal penalties.
We don’t have Democrat friendly judges, overturning laws that prevent voter fraud. Our judges are not elected (except Probate) and are non-partisan.
The decision to allow unrestricted absentee ballots in CT was not a late decision, it was made in late March.
I have been an Asst. Registrar of Voters for years. We may not open envelopes and start processing the absentee ballots until the polls open on election day. Our town starting the process at 8am and it was complete before midnight. Every ballot was examined by both a D and and R poll worker before it could be fed into the tabulator machine.
Our Town clerk routinely sends copies of death certificates to the Registrar’s office so those deceased can be removed from the voting lists as soon as the death is registered. The Registrar also gets lists from DMV of address changes. If you move your drivers license out of town, you are struck from the voting roll.
Voter fraud is extremely rare in most of the USA, which is not ti say it is non-existent. BUT, it is not to the level that would have given Trump re-election.The Grifter, deadbeat, serial bankrupt Trump is using this fraudulent claim to raise hundreds of millions of dollars, that he spend as he wishes through his new PAC. You can bet many of the family will be on the payroll.

You are jumping to conclusions and asserting facts not in evidence.

I don’t post comments on everything Trump utters.I did not dislike his announcement that the US Embassy in Israel would be moved from TA to Yerushayim.
I did not dislike him saying Resign to Atty General Jeff Sessions.

President Elect Biden was not the subject of the post, your attempt to deflect is ridiculous.Ex-CTLawyerParticipant@RebEliezer
I was brought up in CT, 5th generation American. Those adults with too close a relationship (such as our next door neighbors for the first 15 years of my life) to be called Mr X or Mrs X were addressed and referred to as Uncle X and Aunt X.
No Hungarian in our background, this came from the German (maternal) side of our family.BTW, I don’t appreciate non-social friends calling me by my first name, I find it very distasteful and lacking respect. Last Tuesday morning I had a Doctor’s appointment. A twenty something female came into the waiting room and called out my first name. I ignored her, After 4 attempts, she went back into the office and told the manager that Mister Y isn’t here. The office manager started laughing and asked: Did you call for Mr, Y? The young female said no. The office manager said, he’s old enough to be your grandfather, how dare you call him by first name, He’s not your friend, he’s a patient.
She came back out and asked for Mr. Y and I responded.
The doctor referred me to a specialist for some tests. I went that afternoon, Filling out the paperwork, it asked for my preferred first name, I wrote down ATTORNEY.Ex-CTLawyerParticipantSince early March, we have had a home full of our grand children, younger nieces, nephews and grand nieces and nephews.
Mrs. CTL and I along with our children who have been living in the compound have been serving as morah and rebbi, camp counselors, cooks, etc. besides running our professional practice.
My doctor said the half hour a day I spend on the CR is an important stress reliever.Who are you to tell me what to do?
Ex-CTLawyerParticipant@Health
It is far more spread in the USA than you seem to realize or admit.
The Dominicans (not the order of Nuns, but those from the DR) and Hatians practice both Voodoo and Santaria, which mixes African and indigenous idolatry with Catholicism.
Many Puerto Ricans do as well.
On the streets of NY and many other northeast urban areas you will see many stores labelled Botanico Chango. These shops sell the supplies for idol worship by the Hispanic community.
There are many millions in the US who practice this, a shockingly high amount if you count the population of PR living on the Island, not the mainland.Ex-CTLawyerParticipant@Coffeeaddict
Stop deflecting, it doesn’t become you
We are discussing trump, not the son of our incoming President,
No one elected the son to any office.
Trump was elected in 2016 and lost in 2020.
Biden will be sworn in on January 20th. His son has no official position. I hioghly doubt he will have a White House position as the profiteering Kushners hold.Ex-CTLawyerParticipant@hershh
Presidents don’t enact laws in the USA, Congress does.
A Vote for Biden is not a vote for a member of Congress.
I have many Republican friends who are so disgusted with Trump that they vited Biden and also voted Republican for CongressEx-CTLawyerParticipantI am a Liberal Democrat.
Liberal is NOT the same as radical Left. I am NOT a fan or supporter of AOC or Bernie Sanders (who is NOT a Democrat, but caucuses with them).Free College for all?
Free public college tuition for all. why shouldn’t today’s have the advantage that my parents got with free tuition at CCNY and Hunter College in the 1930s? Connecticut grants free community college to every instate High School graduate effective with the class of 2020.
If you want private higher education, to live on campus, etc. You pay for the costs above tuition.More taxes? Not more taxes, but higher. I’d eliminate the tax cuts that Trump pushed through Congress that benefited the wealthy and hurt the lower and middle classes. I’d keep increasing sin taxes on tobacco. This might price people out of smoking, cut disease and death and the public burden of caring for it’s victims.
Open borders, NO. Make visas easier to get for relatives of those already here and true refugees. How many families/ancestors of CR members git in because they had a relative who had come first and/or were refugees of Pogroms or the shoah?
Everyone white automatically racist? NO, but many are. There is systemic racism in bith our police departments and housing regulations, Out town’s police have been sanctioned by the state for its racism. 3-5 acre minimum zoning in the suburbs keeps out both Blacks and frum Jews.
Are policemen bigoted? No more than the rest of society, but they have guns, use force and can intimidate those they loathe.
Pro-Abortion, NO. Pro-choice is NOT the same as pro-abortion. As an adoptive parent I wouldn’t have my youngest if her birth mother aborted the fetus. That said, It is not my right to enforce my views on a woman who is pregnant. It is between the woman. the father-to-be and her doctor. A woman who is pregnant by rape or incest or actually a non-consenting minor should not be forced by the state to carry a pregnancy to term. That is Cruel and Unusual Punishment.
Anti-Second Amendment? No, but I favor stronger gun laws, education, testing, etc. Personally I have no problem with those who belong to the National Guard (our well regulated militia) bearing arms. Would I own a gun, NO. Would I permit a guest to bring one into my home or office, also no.
Iran Nuclear Deal, needs work. Poorly enforced in the past, but better than what we have now,

He moved his legal residence to Florida earlier this year because:
There is no state income tax (guaranteed by state Constitution). If he files NYS Income tax, it includes the information on his federal returns and it would be too easy for them to become public and/or used against him in legal proceedings,
He wants to avoid prosecution by NY State authorities and will avoid stepping foot in NY
He will have to find a new address in Florida. He and Melania registered to vote using Mar-a lago, but that is not legal as a full time residence. The zoning that allowed the former Post Estate to be converted by Trump into his club precludes anyone living there permanently.
He didn’t think that out too well. Florida shields your primary residence from creditors in a bankruptcy, but Mar-a-lago won’t qualify when he goes belly up, again.November 24, 2020 10:16 am at 10:16 am in reply to: Michigan just certified for Biden.

Melania will pack her things and send them with her thig father and mother and Barron to some house where Donald will not be welcome.
Donald will leave the country on a world tour (places without extradition treaties with the USA). He will continue to raise funds for his ‘legal appeals; of the election, continuing to shear his sheep. Being Grifter in Chief is expensive,
@Gadolhadorah….Donny won’t be going to Otisville, too easy for the NYS authorities to get to him for prosecution.Since he never closed down Guantanamo, it would make a great place to house him for the rest of his life. Plenty of room for Eric, Donny Jr, Ivanka and Jared…..they could get a family plan

How do I know these details of the 2020 Census procedures.
3rd grandchild works as a Census Field Supervisor and conducted training sessions remotely from our offices. I could hear the sessions on speakerphone and he showed me materials and asked questions about how this ties in with the Constitutional charge to count persons in the country every 10 years.Ex-CTLawyerParticipant@ujm
How little you know and the falsehoods you post.
#1 You have no idea if seats will be taken from NY and California and gained by ‘red’ states. NY, New England, California finished the actual census count by the October deadline, The deep south, midwest, southwest ‘red’ states were at about 70% counted when all counting had to end.
#2 Taking Congressional seats away from the states in which they live s NOT good for the Jews. It will deprive them of Federal dollars for infrastructure, medicaid, education, etc.
#3
Trump will NOT be submitting the final Census figures to Congress, as the Bureau of the Census announced the numbers will not be ready this year. President to be Biden will be submitting the final Census numbers in 2021.
#4 No person in the USA may legally be excluded from the count. The Constitution charges a count of all persons in the country every ten years. There is no qualification as to citizenship or residency status. The 2020 Census did not ask those questions.
#5 Census employees may not release information about individuals to anyone including other government agencies, They swear such an oath upon employment. The penalty is up to a $250,000 fine and 5 years imprisonment in each instance. the oath is applicable until death.
The Census questionnaire did not ask citizenship or residency status, so that information cannot be transmitted to Trump.
#6 The charge in the Constitution is to count persons. PERIOD. All the other information is not required. Census Enumerators were trained that if a respondent was hesitant, let them just give a population count: 123 Main Street apt 2, 3 persons suffices, if they can obtain names, gender, ages, fine, if not it meets the requirement for a completed enumeration. \November 22, 2020 8:54 am at 8:54 am in reply to: Massive Pennsylvania Supreme Court Defeat for Trump’s Incompetent Legal Team #1921942Ex-CTLawyerParticipant@Health

“There are now over 1000 signed affidavits alleging fraud, so the notion that there is “no evidence of fraud” simply isn’t true.”Meaningless, NOT evidence. You have a lot to learn about the legal system.
An allegation is NOT evidence.
Signatures don’t prove the veracity of what is signed. These affidavits in many cases are claiming in many cases that the SIGNED mailed in ballots are fraudulent.If you are so gullible as too believe what you posted, there’s a bridge I want to sell you.
Ex-CTLawyerParticipantFor those who wish to eliminate vote by mail, remember only the individual state can make the decision. it is not something that can be done by Federal action without a Constitutional Amendment, passed and ratified.
Here in CT, we have very restrictive allowable reasons for issuance of a mail in ballot (absentee):
Absence from your town the entire 14 hours polls are open
Illness or disability
Military Service
Religious conflict/obligations
Being a poll worker (municipal, not political party) at a polling place not your own.Having been an Asst. Registrar of Voters for many years (which our town assigns to polling places outside our own to avoid appearance of conflict), I have voted by mail for many years.
This year our Governor extended the illness/disability provision to include concern for contracting Covid-19 for 2020 elections, primaries only and anyone could apply for a mail in ballot.
In 2014 we had a ballot question to amend the state Constitution to allow all to vote by mail if desired as a matter of convenience. It failed to pass.
It will be interesting ti se if the legislature takes this up again in the 2021 session and if it is on the 2022 state ballot
Ex-CTLawyerParticipantI stopped wearing them on a regular basis when they started making attorneys (as well as all other non-judges) go through the metal detectors a t the CT courthouses.

Actually lawyer make legal arguments without a sound legal basis regularly, they usually lose the case, or it is dismissed.
These lawyers are assigned to file the suits and paid to advocate for the client, they don’t have to believe the client is correct.
In many jurisdiction attorneys could be fined/sanctioned for bringing frivolous lawsuits. In this case with a sitting President (and/or his campaign) as the client, chances are no fines or sanctions will be levied.November 18, 2020 11:59 am at 11:59 am in reply to: Massive Pennsylvania Supreme Court Defeat for Trump’s Incompetent Legal Team #1920910Ex-CTLawyerParticipantSorry, Charlie…..
The lawyers are not incompetent. They are charged to advocate for their client, and are doing just that. They took losing cases and are losing. That does not make them incompetent. Perhaps there is a quid pro quo we don’t see. Take this case, and we’ll funnel you other legal work in the future……………Would I have taken such a case or client? No. But, I don’t have to answer to a boss or partners in a firm. At this stage of the game, I turn away many more new clients than I accept. After I retire, my children and their spouses (who will take over my firm) will get to decide which clients to accept. Right now, daddy rules.

I had the pleasure/Honor to meet MLK Jr several times 50+ years ago. Warnock is no MLK.
I do not approve of clergy in Government. I was thrilled when the Pope ordered Catholic clergy out of Government and Father Drinan left Congress.My email has been non-stop requesting money to turn Georgia’s Senate delegation Blue. I had donated to Biden’s campaign because I wanted him to defeat Trump. BUT, I honestly believe states should choose their own members of the Senate, with as little outside influence and money as possible.
So, I shall not be sending money, phone banking, etc. That would just make me a ‘virtual’ caroetbagger, and this is not Reconstruction II.Ex-CTLawyerParticipant@ZSK
I am NOT a troll. I point out the misuse of words. If one wants to call Warnock: Anti-Israel, or Amti-Jewish, then have the nerve to say so, not Anti-Semite, because he is being alleged to be pro Palestinian.

#1 I don’t believe that one cent of government tax money should be spent on non-public schools.

I don’t begrudge the cost. I think they a great amenity to the community as a whole and increase home values, so do good school systems. The better the public schools the higher home values.

I am NOT a BOT,
I do have limits, referring to those being fleeced is an analogy. One sheers sheep to remove their item of value, fleece.
In colloquial English, we refer to fleecing someone as taking their money with no exchange for something of value,
Right now Trump is fleecing contributors to his Voter Lawsuit funds and diverting the first 60% of the contribution to his PAC and paying off campaign debt, only after that will a maximum of 40 cents of each dollar contributed be spent on voter lawsuits. (Frim the official disclosure on the solicitation emails.)Where did this campaign debt go, to things such as paying a huge salary to Donny Junior’s girlfriend.
If a 2024 campaign committee is set up, it can rent space from Trump in his buildings and pay above market rents, It can pay huge salaries to Donny Jr’s girlfriend, and Rudy’s know nothing son and assorted other non-qualified hangers on.
“Fleeced” was not edited -29

I misconstrued NOTHING. I dealt with the words of your post, I am NOT a mind reader and cannot know or comment on what you meant to post or thought was implied in your post.
I repeat there are many different lawsuits being filed or contemplated and I highly doubt Turley has read each and every one of the suits and knows that no allegation of fraud will be made.
Ex-CTLawyerParticipant@UJM
I did NOT misconstrue anything. I read the post and attacked it verbatim,
As we say in contract law, if it isn’t in the four corners of the document it doesn’t exist.The ignorant poster stated ‘the courts are ruling the networks projected the wrong results based on fraudulent ballots’
That is patently FALSE. And based on the different claims in the different suits, it is possible that a projection was made on ballots NOT fraudulent, but counted incorrectly or legitimate ballots that arrived late and should not have been counted in a specific jurisdiction.Neither one of you should give up your day jobs, because you know nothing about the law, and can’t read and fully comprehend English. You completely missed the ignorant poster’s claim that the networks made their projection based on fraudulent ballots. Facts not in evidence.
Game, set, match….post again some year after you go to law school and pass the Bar Exam. Till then stop practicing law without a license.
Ex-CTLawyerParticipant@Ben Levi
This is Fact #1
YOU HAVE NO CLUE WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT.” Rather the courts are ruling that the networks projected the wrong results based on fraudulent ballots.”
REALLY????????????????????????????????
The lawsuits being filed make no allegations about the media predicting/calling a winner and the courts cannot rule they projected wrong results. The courts can only rule on the issues of law in the suit. The issues raise have to do with alleged fraud, counting ballots received after state imposed deadlines, and ineligible ballots being counted or ballots counted more than once (there may be a few more allegations, but not all the suits have been filed so I can’t read the pleadings yet.AMATEURS, such as yourself would do better to keep your mouth shut, rather than pontificate about the law….especially since you are so ignorant of the law and what rulings may be issued.
Again, 40+ years a licensed attorney in 4 states and have taught law school as an adjunct Professor,
BTW, Oh Brilliant One, each lawsuit calls for different remedies for different alleged harms. Some suits ask for a recount, some ask that certain ballots not be counted, some ask for a recount under different supervision than the original count. Don’t claim to know facts when it is so obvious you don’t know the law. AND>>>>>>>>>>>>>the Federal Courts have to apply State Law to most of these cases because the rules of voting (except for minimum age of 18 and allowing women to vote) are determined by the states, not the Federal Government.

There needs to be a winner agreed upon, long before the states certify the votes.
Certification may not take place until December and the changeover (if there is one) takes place in January.
The new President to be needs to receive intelligence briefings, assemble a transition team, investigate and interview candidates for Executive Branch appointments (e.g. Cabinet members). Our law provides for funds for the transition.Mr. Trump has been refusing to allow intelligence briefings to a man who has held the highest security clearance (as VP), far higher than his kids and in-laws hold. He has ordered transition funds not be released.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
The above is instructional and factual.Now for a BIASED observation:
Why is Trump attempting all these legal challenges?
It continues the cash cow for his heavily in debt campaign. If one reads the disclaimer that is attached to the fundraising emails for Trump’s legal appeals (and I have) it states that funds may be used for payment of campaign debt.
He is continuing to fleece the sheep. If he concedes, he has no way to retire his campaign debt and keep people like his son’s girlfriend on the campaign payroll.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Back to educational and factual analysis> the courts are loathe to invalidate election results and large quantities of ballots. This election did not have only one race on the ballots, in some jurisdictions there were dozens of races on the ballot.

Executive Orders, Policy Decisions and procedures by officials such as Secretaries of State (not Federal), Town Clerks, County Election officials, Registrars of Voters, etc. are NOT laws.I don’t hide my bona fides: BS, MBA, JD, member of the Bar in MA, CT, NY, and FL, Asst. Registrar of Voters in my town.
What are your bona fides?November 8, 2020 10:15 am at 10:15 am in reply to: Could someone explain it to a non American please…? #1917771Ex-CTLawyerParticipant#1
The ballots to be counted are being predicted to follow the similar percentages as those already counted. X percent Trump, Y percent Biden and there will not be enough Trump votes to change the outcome.

NC in limbo? depends on which news network. Biden does not need NC electoral college votes to win

Nebraska and Maine award Electoral College Votes differently than most states. They award the 2 votes allocated for each member of the senate (all states get these) to the statewide popular vote winner. They allocate the Electoral vote for each member of the US House of Representatives to the popular vote winner in each Congressional district. Thus you can have a split vote Red/Blue in those states, while the other 48 states and DC are winner of statewide popular vote takes all.#3
The AP does NOT decide the election results, election officials in each state do. However, the AP and other news organizations call or make predictions. They are considered reliable by many, but not all.It is not over until the votes are certified by authorities in each
h state and the Electoral College votes in December and the Congress meets January 4 to accept that result.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
BTW, most litigation to challenge election results fail, recounts by request (not required by state law) are paid for by the candidate requesting the recount.
Also, unlike most countries, the USA does not have uniform voting rules. Each state gets to make its own rules regarding things such as absentee ballots, challenges, etc.This year, some states sent vote by mail ballots to every registered voter, my state sent absentee ballot applications to every registered voter, but you had to apply for an actual ballot.

You are living in a state of denial.
Four years ago, I was disgusted that Trump became President Elect by winning the Electoral College, while losing the popular vote.
BUT, that is the way the American system works,
Now, he has lost and will have to fund his own golf outingsHe will not concede now, or go quietly.
WHY????????????????????????????????Because he can continue to drive millions in donations from suckers and losers to either file frivolous litigation or a Trump 2024 campaign. This is just an attempt to supply an income for himself, family and his son’s girlfriend, Guiliani’s worthless son, etc. the gullible sheep will empty their pockets to enrich this charlatan.
BTW> our little Republican town, known for splitting ballots, went Democrat for President for the first time in 56 years, while going Republican for all 4 members of the state legislature on the ticket.

@catchyourselfMrs. CTL does not make the pickles or gefilte fish, I do. My father taught me to pickle vegetables. He learned from his father.
I not only pickle cucumbers but many other vegetables grown in our gardens, such as tomatoes, eggplant, cauliflower and peppers and cabbage.
I use the same pickling spices and liquid as I use to pickle corned beef or tongue.
we use gallon jars, kept in our unfinished cellar.
My wife and daughters like half sours, I like full sours.i
