SectionC3

I actually agree with you here. What’s happened in Williamsville is a complete joke. They’ll blame it on such things as the governor, the virus, and the attendant uncertainty. But the reality (and this is coming from someone who has spent a lot of time on the reopening issue) Is the administrators are educators who aren’t used to the scrutiny and the level of detail that accompanies the reopening process. The reopening plans, by and large, parrot NYSED guidelines without any specifics. Nobody has an answer for a simple question like the location of the COVID room. How the varying instructional models are going to work is beyond me. And, in any event, it’s all going to be a mess because everyone presumes rosy, best-case scenarios. Nobody expect it to take 90 minutes to get the kids from the bus to the desk, and nobody expects the kids to do such things as be kids and remove a mask, or come to school without having a temp check, or break protocol and hug a friend or walk out of a lane in a hallway. We’ve done a lot of hard work to get right on the virus issue, and unfortunately unprepared administrators and parents eager to warehouse their kids are going to mess it all up. So what exactly have you been doing? Virtual appearances? Pleading out? Suppression hearings probably on hold. Not that it’s that busy in the boonies, anyway. Local courts are just getting back online, so you probably haven’t done traffic court in awhile. And yet you shouldn’t take a haircut, but the people who are working for free over the summer to get ready to get back to work in an unsafe environment should. Makes. Perfect. Sense.

August, Clark. When was your last jury trial? Probably still doing virtual appearances. Let me guess, got the Zoom mullet thing going on. Business on top, shorts and sneakers on the bottom. Yet the teachers shouldn’t get paid. Makes. Perfect. Sense.

OK, serious question. Are you beating the S&P this year?

So no rebate. Did the ol’ “work from home” and then didn’t give the county the money back. But the teachers can’t render instruction remotely and get paid for it. Makes perfect sense!

Did you go to work every day during in March and April of this year? Courts were closed, right? So there wasn’t one work form home day for you? Hope you gave a rebate to the county.

Hoax. Also not funny. You should talk to your pal at the “high level of state government” before you spout off about that with which you’re unfamiliar. Look what happened last time you dipped your toe in the water. That makes two of us, apparently.

What if I’m out of town in my day? Oops. Gotta go absentee.

You only get high rollers anyway in your thriving financial advisory group. Got those dudes at Goldman running scared I bet! Yeah! That’s right! Trump is dad of the year!

It’s always good to hate those who disagree with you. Solid choice. It’s best when we all think exactly the same way all of the time. That’s Trumpism, in a nutshell. Perhaps we can make it even easier by having thought leaders and luminaries like the highly accomplished Donald Trump, Jr. and Kid Rock do the thinking for us. That would be grand! They don’t teach sarcasm in financial adviser school, do they. Hoax. Any updates on the prosperity Gospel?

It’s you’re, FYI. Also, who said that I chase ambulances?

To be fair a good part of the “other” 168 minutes is consumed by replays and poignant analysis. So there’s that.

Get it on the agenda and I’m sure they can find a few minutes to work in this strange but perhaps legitimate complaint. There’s always room for more hate at the 2020 Republican National Convention!

Maybe you are better. Never met you. But I kind of doubt it based on some of the stuff you say here.

So what is “best protects” in this situation? Lingering investigation, subpoena, weeks of press, potential 5A fight? Or just go in there and laugh it off? I had someone call me over the weekend who is in a bit of a jam, allegedly did nothing wrong, but has to sit down for an interview this week. If he walks in weak, he’s going to get run over. So he can skip the interview (bad plan here), or walk in there, project confidence, and get the thing over with. Nothing to hide = no reason to hide.

Thompson I am not, that is for sure.

Copying the libs to own the libs. Trashy. I already used tragicomedy. Be better.

i don’t have much free time. But I do have writer’s block today. Gotta change the situation to break the block. So picking on Trump and the dopes that follow him always is a good source of amusement in that respect.

Didn’t Pope Francis demand an end to the maltreatment of the Earth, as part of God’s creation? I believe he did. Apparently we’re getting back to selective Christianity again on your part. Maybe we can talk about the prosperity Gospel next. Or opine about how if oil spills weren’t a good thing God would stop them. You and I practice different versions of Christianity, that is for sure.

Good work, Gary! I’m not one to play the treason card, but if you think Trump is treasonous and traitorous I probably wouldn’t argue too hard with you. Well done.

Maybe next time Dan Bognino plays lawyer he can explain why Mike Flynn pleaded guilty. Perhaps Dan can also shed light on the criminality and corruption that seems to follow Trump and his pals around. Steve Bannon, Mike Flynn, Paul Manafort. Michael Cohen, Rick Gates, the venerable Roger Stone, and even local thief and COVID-19 fearmongerer Chris Collins. Lots of dudes with fleas lying around that dog.

Well played! Unfortunately (or fortunately, maybe, I don’t know), no. But I am the subject of a sad tragicomedy in which transactional, traitorous Trump tramples the constitution.

What’s better - talking to investigators and nipping an investigation in the bud when you’ve done nothing wrong and have nothing to hide, or stonewalling and letting it fester? Common sense said that if the kid did nothing wrong and has nothing to answer for he walks in, answers whatever question is asked, and gets the thing over with. There’s no such thing as a perjury trap when one hasn’t done anything wrong. Instead, here, the kid is clamming up, which, as an investigator would only set off alarm bells and tell me it’s time to dig deeper and find out what he might or might not have to say.

He clammed up in a civil matter so he wouldn’t have to deal with whether he could plead the fifth in that case. It’s a bad look. It’s not something a jury can hold against him, but it does ring alarm bells for people investigating the matter. Nothing to hide means no reason to hide. FYI, this isn’t about waiving his right to counsel - of course he’s a dope if he gives up counsel. This is about talking to investigators with or without counsel.

Mar-a-Moscow is going to be awesome.

Maybe they can bunk at Otis if they both end up doing federal time. They could relive the glory days and complain about Obama all the time!
