The money point made: "...Noonan, along with the rest of the people that I’ve listed here still cannot understand, ( or will not admit they understand) Trump was not the cause of their demise but the result of it. The American voter long since has declared establishment Washington dead..."
There are many on both the Left and Right who want the "declared establishment Washington dead", but there is where any common ground ends.
Many on the Left want it dead so they can replace it with a bureaucracy composed of their own Leftist apparatchiks.
We on the Right want it dead so we can return to a form of governance that is closer to the spirit of The Republic and The Constitution, and further removed from a government of graft, corruption, and the will of politicians bent on limiting our freedom.
The Globe obtained a recording of this:
Minutes into the Newton District Court hearing for Jose Medina-Perez, his defense attorney asked the judge if he could approach the bench for a quick chat.
There, in hushed tones and whispers, the attorney walked through his client’s predicament with District Judge Shelley M. Joseph and a state prosecutor. They debated what to do with the defendant, who was in immediate danger of being deported.
Medina-Perez, picked up by Newton police on drug charges, faced a fugitive warrant for drunken driving in Pennsylvania and a detainer from US Immigration and Customs Enforcement, according to a courtroom audio recording of the bench conference. In fact, an ICE agent was in the courthouse, waiting to detain Perez and start the deportation process.
“ICE is going to get him,” the judge told the attorneys during the April 2 sidebar conversation. “What if we continue [the case]?” she suggested, before instructing a clerk to turn off the courtroom’s audio recorder. Whatever was said during the next 58 seconds went unrecorded.
Minutes later, Medina-Perez was escorted downstairs, released from custody, and allowed out a back door, according to two people briefed on the episode. He scaled a fence and took off, leaving the immigration agent behind, the people said.
Not sure what article you are pointing to?? Is Peggy Noonan at it again with her foolish anti-Trumpery?
I’m sure her idol, Ronald Reagan, is turning over in his grave reading the idiocy that Noonan writes about a man who is saving the Republic.
