Georgia has passed a law which Governor Kemp will sign giving the legislature control over the prosecutors. One outcime could be to fire Fani Willis, end the investigation of Trump, and prevent indictment and trial of Trump.

Question: Can the feds take over this investigation?

The states set their own election laws. But is there a federal law that would apply to what Trump did in his phone call to tell Raffensperger to find Trump enough votes to win Georgia? Extortion? Intimidation of an election official? Attempt to overthrow an election?

Subornation since Trump tried to get Raffensperger to falsify election records?

It's clear that Georgia will not allow Willis to indict and try Trump. But her investigation will not be for nothing if the feds can charge and try Trump.

Is it possible?

She claims to be a good Christian. Lent started last week with Ash Wednesday. It is customary for Christians to give up something for Lent because it is a period for self reflection, self sacrifice, and spiritual growth.

It used to be that only Roman Catholics gave up something for Lent, but Protestant denominations have also started doing this, including getting ashes on Ash Wednesday.

So, what should MTG give up?

I suggest she give up harassing and screaming at people whose politics are different from hers. Think she could last from now until Easter without harassing people?

Erin is introduced by an attorney. After she speaks, another attorney gives details on the damage, how it happened, and what's needed for cleanup.

I often say it without the first "r."

who murdered 10 people and wounded 3 at the Tops market in Buffalo. After relatives and friends gave their victim comments, Erie County court judge Susan Eagan gave a strong statement about white supremacy and institutionized racism that made the massacre possible. It is worth listeming to the full statement.

Not included in this video is the actual sentencing as she delivered it after making the statement in the following video. Buffalo NPR played the sentencing portion, too. Judge Eagan named each victim, one at a time, in giving a life sentence without parole on each count. After each name, she identified the person as wife, mother, daughter or husband, father, son, etc. and said a few words about their roles in the community.

This video is from You Tube, so unfortunately it gets briefly interrupted by an ad, but just click on skip ad to return to the statement. The full video is 9:01 minutes long.

He still faces federal charges including a hate crime charge. Federal prosecutors will decide tomorrow whether to seek the death penalty.

She looked professional and dignified in a suit that was attractive and appropriate for the occasion. She radiated enthusiasm for the administration's programs and goals.

Big contrast to Sinema and MTG in their attention grabbing appearance and behavior that matched.

What a difference between a serious public servant and those who are in it for themselves instead of for the people.
