They are behaving as if the end of the world were near. For most of them, that might be true.

I wonder if he's in Puerto Rico right now?
SCRANTON, Pa. (AP) — The FBI raided Scranton City Hall and the mayor's home this week.
The Times-Tribune of Scranton says FBI agents executed the raid on Wednesday in what spokeswoman Carrie Adamowski says was "court-authorized activity." It's not clear why the agents were there. Adamowski declined to further comment.
WNEP reports that FBI agents removed two boxes from the city's licensing, inspections and permits department.
Mayor Bill Courtright referred questions about the FBI raid to city's solicitor Jessica Eskra. She declined comment to The Associated Press on Friday. City council members, meantime, are calling on the mayor to provide information. Courtright, a Democrat, is serving his second term as mayor of the city of about 77,000.
The funny thing about this trip to Puerto Rico is how it ties into the enemy combatants EO. Apparently, based on my recollection from having read it, is that the full weight (new sentencing guidelines) of the EO applies to crimes committed AFTER the EO goes into effect. Imagine if they were stupid enough to eat Pizza at this point.
No one could possibly be so stupid as to help load the gun that is so clearly pointed at their own head. Could they?

(c) Nothing in title LX of the MJA shall be construed to invalidate the prosecution of any offense committed before January 1, 2019. The maximum punishment for an offense committed before January 1, 2019, shall not exceed the maximum punishment in effect at the time of the commission of such offense."

Well that's interesting. Even based on that theory, it's likely that peeps who went to PR were tricked into going there. Remember how we lost the House? This might be how we get it back. All planned. Top level players complicit.
I like it Anon. I like it a lot.
