Jack Smith released his report at 1:00 AM this morning in spite of a judges ruling that it not be released. It has all the usual false claims and baseless accusations but it had something else too. Jack Smith choose to include as an indictable offense that Trump tried to get State election officials to do their job. I think this is an opening for Trump to create an official investigation into the 2020 election. There are many who want to sweep this stolen election under the rug but I believe that the stolen election was the most serious act by the deep state in the last 61 years (yes since the assassination of JFK). We should not ignore it or just get back to business as usual.

I would suggest as a starting point to call everyone of the 40,000 "mules" (from the movie 2000 mules) to testify under oath. We know their names because we know their cell phone numbers. The first thing each of them should be offered is immunity if they testify honestly and name all those they know of that were involved in the conspiracy. Get all 40,000 to state on the record what they did and who they conspired with and work up the chain to the leaders of this coup. Americans need to know the truth. They were literally going to charge Trump with insurrection because he was trying to get to the bottom of who stole the election. It is imperative that Trump authorize an investigation to expose the truth.

Children playing outside: IMHO this is 100% the purview of the parents. Not the police, neighbors, Karens or even courts UNLESS they are breaking a law or otherwise causing a problem. Let a six YO walk to the store! I did at six. Let them stay out till dark. I did at six. Let the parents decide and the only reason anyone should interfere is if there is a law broken. The police are charged with enforcing the laws not enforcing a third party's feelings.

Does this mean that children could get hurt or in trouble? Yes, so what! I did all those things at six and before. I learned!! It was the norm in the 40's and 50's that the parents decided what was right for children and when the child screwed up a Neighbor, teacher or cop brought this to the parents attention and a lesson was administered and the child learned from it. I got broken bones, cuts and bruises, got beat up, got bullied, bullied others, got sick from eating something I shouldn't and every time I did something wrong I learned from it. That is what childhood should be. We can disagree on the latitude of the parents and child in this but I absolutely believe that if the child is not breaking the law or at serious risk that the police and courts have no business sticking their noses into it. I would welcome well intended information from neighbors and even strangers about my child's actions but NOT interference.
