We're in the worst timeline. I envy the fuck out of the Jason330 who is in the timeline where Gore beat Bush, climate change was taken seriously, Rupert Murdoch was stoned to death by an angry mob, and corporate hegemony was vanquished. That Jason330 is probably sitting at his lap top right now bitching and grousing about some trivial nonsense, like cakes vs pies.

Flag Day

Here is a flag. It is the 9/11 commemorative flag that the dynamic duo of Hansen and Hensley propose government buildings fly each September 11th in memory of the terrorist attack which resulted in our terrorist attack in Iraq. I've got nothing against the flag, but it should maybe be flown with the cluster fuck of a flag associated with the war that even George Bush recently acknowledged was “wholly unjustified and brutal".

Park City Kathy Catches a Break

Her personal laptop probably had the juiciest love letters to you know who...also the most explicit confessions of misconduct and lawbreaking. Will it matter? Who knows? I'm seriously asking... who knows?
DOVER, Del. – A Delaware judge has chastised prosecutors for failing to turn over information to the defense in a criminal corruption case against State Auditor Kathy McGuiness, issuing a ruling that also exposed weaknesses in the state’s cyber forensic capabilities. In a ruling on Wednesday, Superior Court Judge William Carpenter Jr. prohibited prosecutors from using material from three laptops that were seized during a search of McGuiness’ officer in September 2021. Carpenter said that prohibition was an appropriate sanction for prosecutors’ failure to provide information contained on laptops to the defense until April 6th, more than six months after the search. However, Carpenter refused to grant a defense motion to dismiss the indictment against McGuiness.
