The fascist leader typically uses everyone to get installed into office.

Once he has power, he then lowers the boom on everyone who helped him.
Demanding money and favors.
They deliver or else.

So by the time they realize they have been duped, it is way too late.

I phrased it pretty much like that and they have to process what I said and most give a little chuckle.

I spent a week there, and it felt like a year, because there was nothing to do there.

I just went back last summer to visit an aunt and cousins.
Nothing changed at all.

PHOENIX (AP) — A judge on Wednesday ordered corrections authorities to provide organic food to an Arizona man accused of participating in the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol while sporting face paint, no shirt and a furry hat with horns.

The order came after a lawyer for defendant Jacob Chansley complained that his client had gone the past nine days without eating because organic food isn’t served at the Washington jail where he’s housed.

Rep. Pascrell Wants Giuliani Disbarred Over Post-Election Conduct

Pascrell, long a critic of President Donald Trump, ratcheted up his attacks by seeking disbarment of Giuliani and 22 other Trump lawyers.

Montana Samuels, Patch Staff Badge
Posted Wed, Nov 25, 2020 at 9:37 am ET | Updated Wed, Nov 25, 2020 at 4:36 pm ET



NEW JERSEY — Congressman Bill Pascrell Jr. has seen enough of Rudolph Giuliani and the rest of President Donald Trump's legal team, so much so that he's seeking to have them disbarred.

"The pattern of behavior by these individuals to effectuate Mr. Trump’s sinister arson is a danger not just to our legal system but is also unprecedented in our national life," he wrote in letters to the bar authorities of Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, New York and Pennsylvania, seeking to have Giuliani and 22 other Trump attorneys disbarred.

A former New York mayor and current leader of Trump's legal team, Giuliani has — along with the rest of that team — been under fire for their post-election conduct. It includes odd news conferences, questionable legal arguments and a viral moment or two that will be — and already has been — the template of many an internet laugh.

The legal team has even drawn ire from allies such as former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie. "The conduct of the president's legal team has been a national embarrassment," Christie said during a recent television appearance. Pascrell is no ally to the president. In an action first announced on Twitter, Pascrell said he submitted the letters after the legal team filed "frivolous lawsuits" and tried "to help Trump steal the election and dismantle democracy."

Here is a copy of my complaint to the New York State judicial conduct body calling for Rudy Giuliani’s law license to be stripped. Similar letters were sent to four other states against Trump lawyers.
