No walk yet.

Did weeding in the front and the back, and trimming of rose bushes and removing one bush this morning. Then food shopping.

Traffic very heavy today—it’s a perfect beach day, and folks are starting their Labor Day weekend today.

Banner year for tourism this year.

The true cultural year for America starts in September, not New Year’s Day.

Come Sept. 5th everything winds down, except for weekends through November with special events. School starts on Wed., Sept. 6th.

Huge Win for Trump: Judge Swiftly Dismisses Lawsuit Against Him, Rules Plaintiffs Have No Standing

Western Journal ^ | September 1, 2023 | C. Douglas Golden

How intellectually impoverished is the argument that the 14th Amendment prevents Donald Trump from running for president?

So much so, in fact, that a Barack Obama-appointed judge swiftly dismissed a lawsuit from a group arguing the former president shouldn’t be able to appear on the Florida primary ballot because of the events of Jan. 6, 2021.

According to the Palm Beach Post, Judge Robin Rosenberg didn’t rule on whether the 14th Amendment could apply to Trump’s 2024 candidacy.

“Instead, Rosenberg ruled that the plaintiffs, Boynton Beach attorney Lawrence Caplan and two others, lacked ‘standing’ to bring the challenge,” the outlet reported.

“Plaintiffs lack standing to challenge Defendant’s qualifications for seeking the Presidency,” the ruling read.

Instead, she said, “the injuries alleged” from the events of Jan. 6, 2021, “are not cognizable and not particular to them” and that “an individual citizen does not have standing to challenge whether another individual is qualified to hold public office.”

In the ruling, the judge also cited prior precedent, in which plaintiffs weren’t able to keep candidates off the ballot because of their association with Jan. 6.

Palm Beach-based attorney Lawrence Caplan — who filed the lawsuit, along with two other individuals — didn’t comment after the ruling, although he had previously said that standing might be the biggest hurdle his lawsuit would face. Nevertheless, he had previously claimed the Constitution prohibited Trump from running again.
