GEORGIA: The Perfect Legal Storm

First, an update about the Lahaina Apocalypse:

Deaths up to 99 with more to come.
Law firms have arrived on Maui to do what they did to PG&E. The S&P Global Ratings downgraded Hawaiian Electric stock to junk.
Real estate predators are attempting to get wildfire victims to sell their land.

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:

A state essentially perturbed about he daring to try to steal the election, where he personally got blamed for spurring the Senate victories of Democrats Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff, and even endorsed David Perdue, who lost the election to Republican Brian Kemp for Georgia governor. Everyone in a position of power in that state, Republicans and Democrats, now thinks Trump is a loser, and, also too, probably, crook. Certainly a liar and worse.

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.

African Blood Lily Day 12.

HONOLULU TO SEATTLE

The story of the day is Hurricane Milton, now a Category 4 at 145 MPH, with a track that has moved further south and the eye projected to make landfall just south of Sarasota. Good news for Tampa, which is 73 miles north. Milton will crash into Florida as a Category 4, and is huge, so a lot of problems can still be expected in Tampa Bay with storm surge. If the eye had crossed into the state just north of Tampa, the damage would have been catastrophic. Milton is a fast-moving storm, currently at 17 MPH, so as bad as the rainfall will be over Florida, again, a blessing. The eye will make landfall around 10PM EDT today, and will move into the Atlantic Ocean north of Palm Bay Thursday morning. My first trip to Seattle was in June of 1962 just after I graduated from Stanford University. Caught a bus. Was called the Century 21 Exposition . Also the Seattle World's Fair. 10 million joined me on a six-month run. My first. These a...

WHY YOU SHOULD CONVERT TO A JAPANESE HIGH TECH TOILET

Did you know that Oktoberfest in Germany is mostly in September? The very first day of Oktoberfest 2021 was supposed to be today, September 18, extending into October 3. Well, as in 2020, Oktoberfest was cancelled. So why is it called by that month when it is held mostly in September? The first celebration in 1810 was in October. Did you also know that Oktoberfest is held only in Munich? These days seven million drink more than a liter ( about three typical cans ) of beer each, costing around $11. Except for my wife and I when we followed the crowd to board the S-Bahn to the fairgrounds near Old Town. It was drizzling a bit. We bought a large pretzel outside of a typical barn where beer is served. We did not know that you needed to get this inside the hall. So no one came to serve us beer. After a while we decided to have lunch, and the restaurant we settled on only served wine. Thus, we might have been the ...

THE FIRST 84 YEARS OF MY LIFE

The first half of my life was spent preparing myself for my final 42 years. This was a mostly trying and stressful period involving a less than ideal youth, then struggles to get through school, my first few jobs and accompanying life, ending two months later on a Sunday with Part 15E , so it was a spiritual conclusion to my final transition. I never did count the number of actual postings, but I suspect it was around 25 parts. The ending had to do with golf, the disappearance and re-appearance of an 8-iron cover. That was the final clue to whether the beyond after death would be eternal gloom or Heaven. Today, I provide only one transition, but hint about a final one, for this, after all, is Sunday. I'm 84 years old, so let me summarize what happened during the first phase, from 0-42, and follow with the years 42-84. As this is 2024, that key transition year was 1982. I can't seem to find this photo, but as a one-year old baby, I was fat....
