GEORGIA: The Perfect Legal Storm

 First, an update about the Lahaina Apocalypse:

Today, part one about the state of Georgia.  Sometime later this week will come GEORGIA:  Entertainment Trifecta, featuring the #1 Major League Baseball Team, the Atlanta Braves, #1 college football team, Georgia Bulldogs, and #1 TV attraction, the Donald Trump Georgia Indictment, for the odds are good that the whole trial will be televised.
But about today, here is a Fox News link so you can read about the status of Donald Trump's Georgia indictment from a supportive news source.  But if you must, here is where you can read the views of NBC News.  And, by the way, if you don't know what RICO stands for, it is the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act.
Read the 2009 book, The Perfect Storm, by Sebastian Junger, or seen the film?  There actually was a perfect storm, in 1991, a coming together of a nor'easter and Hurricane Grace, developing off the coast of Atlantic Canada just before Halloween.  Waves reached as high as 100 feet, although the one that capsized the Andrea Gail, killing all 6 crew members, was said to be "only" 39 feet.

Say a book/film is one day made of what is now confronting Donald Trump in Georgia, where perhaps by then George Clooney could be Trump and Mark Wahlberg can play Rudy Giuliani.  They starred in the The Perfect Storm movie, where Rotten Tomatoes reviewers only gave it a 46% rating.

Why is this Trump Georgia indictment a perfect legal storm?  Perfect against Trump, that is, for he will be confronted with the following:

  • There is no time deadline, for even if he is elected president on 5 November 2024, he can still be convicted in Georgia, and serve his presidency in jail.  He will not be able to pardon himself by state law.
  • There are so many co-conspirators identified that a few will almost surely flip to protect themselves and family from doom.
  • The trial could well be televised, and the case against him is so obviously damning, beginning with his recorded phone call to Brad Raffensperger, but more, and the effect should be powerful enough to persuade a sufficient number of voters to deny him the re-election.
  • When will this trial be held?  Not yet known, but before the Jack Smith DC trial or after, Georgia will put a lot of pressure on a few more Trump allies to testify against him for both cases.
  • As there will also be the Smith trial, there will further be a second sinking, for the Tamaroa, the Coast Guard vessel in the film, was also purposefully sunk in 2017.
  • So Donald Trump and loyalists have boarded the Andrea Gail, awaiting a terminal fate.

ON THE MATTER OF PUBLIC HOLIDAYS

Hawaii today celebrates King Kamehameha the First Day as a public holiday.  Next Monday, June 19, or  Juneteenth,  is a Federal holiday.  However, 22 states, including Hawaii, do not recognize this as a public holiday.  Four of these will begin to honor this day next year, not Hawaii.  Juneteenth commemorates the end of slavery.  Here are the Hawaii holidays, and note three that only we have: New Year’s Day: 1st day in January Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day: 3rd Monday in January Presidents’ Day: 3rd Monday in February Prince Jonah Kuhio Kalanianaole Day: 26th day in March Good Friday: Friday before Easter Easter:   Calculating Easter Memorial Day: Last Monday in May King Kamehameha I Day: 11th day in June Independence Day: 4th day in July Statehood Day: 3rd Friday in August Labor Day: 1st Monday in September Veterans’ Day: 11th day in November Thanksgiving Day: 4th Thursday in November Christmas: 25th day in December There are  11 paid Fede...

THE ENIGMATIC PHIL SPECTOR

The first presidential debate of Donald Trump and Joe Biden ended up in a near tie.  Both lost.  However, it was an unmitigated disaster for Biden, who just might be too old to win this re-election. For Trump, it was a reinforcement of what he does all the the time, lie.   There will be significant calls for the Democratic Party to work out "something" to replace Biden as their presidential candidate.  Suddenly, Kamala Harris, Gavin Newsom and Michelle Obama are added to the spotlight.  But what can "legally" occur at the August Democratic Convention? The situation is different on the Republican side, as Trump is the Republican Party, and no matter if he gets 4 years at his felony sentencing on July 9, or even if the Supreme Court determines he is not immune next week or later, he will be the presidential candidate. Trump is a damned boastful liar and convicted felon, but that is the only option for Republicans.  His vice-presidential choice now become...

THE TRUMP ENERGY PROGRAM

From  Time  magazine, I begin with a slew of Trump topics.  You can read the details. The unpopular Big Beautiful Bill is now in the House . The only truly effective anti-Trump person:  Elon Musk. The Trump Gaza ceasefire proposal . The July 4th Free American Anti-Trump Protest planned across the USA . This site began as a renewable energy and environment blog, and has evolved to just about any subject.  I try to keep Wednesdays for sci-tech, with perhaps a monthly focus on energy.  More recently, I've drawn from the  Energy Matters  info sent to me by the American Energy Society.  I'm inserting direct quotes this time to eliminate my predilections for more credibility. This service starts with some broad topics. - Fossil fuels: Helium is locked in a supply crunch, and prices are surging. - Renewables: Congress will probably pass new renewable fuel standards for 2026 and 2027. - Policy: President Trump is now focused on Califor...
