I predict some jail time (1 mo. - 1 year) with probation after. (1-3 years total)

Figure pulled straight from my ass based on a Dunning-Kruger level of knowledge of the US justice system.
It's as valid as any pundit's opinion you'll see on the teevee.

Re: VERDICT IS REACHED!

It's part of the reason (IMO at least) Tump gets treated with "kid-gloves" in court: They want to limit potential avenues of appeal/appearance of unfair bias.

Re: It’s official

Looks like I either got another patent or hit a pay milestone on my last one as I noticed I got a "patent bonus" check last week. (the only reason I noticed that as the separate check issued by the payroll company registered it as being "a significant drop" from my last pay period.) Not that I'm com...

Pride - It looks like I did something right.

My son told me a situation he was dealing with at school today that he was rather upset about.: He told me how an "ex-friend" of his was making fun of a "special needs" kid for trying at a sport (and succeeding far compared to where he was) beyond her prescribed abilities.

Re: NOW is when McCarthy chooses to find his voice?

I get the impression that he’s making a play for power. Right now I think he’s trying to set himself up as the “heir to the Republican Party after Trump loses. Not that I really think he’s the one for the job but he has money and influence. That may be enough but I don’t think he’s the realignment t...
