I feel the need to say a word about around one hundred people

Actually around one-hundred and four people.

Who are they? They’re our comrades, people like you and me, whose long, hard work and serious consequence have been silenced, buried under the deafening media cacophony.

This is uber-rude and uber-stupid. Because they are model Americans who represent every ethnicity, skin color, creed, age group, vocation, religious affiliation or not, and political or a-political belief. And they are being ignored, although what they did confirmed the power in our system of government and gave us all reason to see that one huge aspect of this country does work.

As someone who served as they have, I’m very much pissed off at the frantic efforts to pretend they never existed.

Who are they?

They are, in my estimated count, the grand jurors who brought indictments in Florida, Georgia, DC and New York, and the New York trial jurors who convicted.

I’m going to make a statement: these indictments and convictions don’t just evaporate because of frantic hysterical screeches. They won’t be sucked up into the phony chaos the convicted felon, his grandiose supporters and minions on SCOTUS and the federal bench have effectuated to disguise the reality they fear.

Which is: the work of our fellow countrymen, our fellow jurors, will not disappear. Nor will the intelligent, dedicated lawyers who are prosecuting.

Recently I read on TAFKAT a bit from a political news thing I generally pay no attention to because it trucks in unconfirmed sensation. The headline claimed it’s become uncreasingly unlikely that Trump will ever be brought to justice, and a smart, odd and charming pundit — but one without a law license — responded with a anxious sigh.

I once met her and wanted to respond, “Don’t worry, don’t listen to the noise made by a few people and sensationalist media. They don’t know what they’re talking about because they don’t understand how the rule of law works.

It works, it will prevail.
