He did not even need to use the US Justice Department to accomplish this as non-federal Manhattan prosecutors took care of the dirty work.

The mainstream media is running with the headline that the latest Fox News poll shows Former President Trump two points behind President Joe Biden – a difference well within the margin of error – but the poll also reveals an edge for Trump on a majority of electoral issues. In addition, a majority of voters say the race in November will be about the issues, not about the candidates, a finding that could significantly favor Trump.

This is not about Donald Trump. It’s not even about the sad souls seduced by him. The insurrectionists who stormed the Capital to prevent the peaceful transfer of power were primarily guilty of being gullible. They merely fell for the big fraud. They did not do the defrauding. Many have been held accountable for their actions. Most of the ones who fooled them have not. Yet.

Howdy to All!

Dayton, being born in 1928, lived 96 years on this earth. He said no one could imagine how the world had changed in his lifetime. Yet, even through the hard times, he still would say, “what a beautiful world”. He left home at an early age and joined the Merchant Marines at the age of 16 in 1944 as WWII raged. In March, 1945, an enemy Submarine torpedoed and sank his Liberty Ship in the English channel while they were carrying ammunition cargo to France. If it had hit just a few feet to one side, the ship would have blown and the whole crew would have perished. He joined the Army Air Force in 1946 and was stationed on the island of Guam. Dayton said that it took a while for word to get to everyone that the war was over, so the fighting continued for some time. Dayton did not like to speak about his service. He did not want to draw attention to himself.
