The federal investigators should be embarrassed that they can’t identify the culprit.

Very naive to believe that they don’t know.

They 100% know and knew within hours.

Not telling you and not knowing are very different things
I want an opt out. Of course that isn’t feasible because the generation who ruined the country, all of its institutions, its economic and foreign policy infrastructure, and its general independence now need my money to fade away apparently.

Duncan was elected

And his redundant position was eliminated by the legislature. Period. There is no “he’s entitled to a public salary and benefits”. No. Nothing. The position is gone.

Your whining is a political matter. There is no legal matter here.
quote:

Give the man the term he was elected for and eliminate that clerks office when his term is over.

Nope. No one is entitled to public office.
quote:

Removing Duncan’s seat only slows down criminal court process even more than it is now.

Why? What does a criminal clerk have to do with anything? Criminal case backlogs are because of lazy judges, pathetic LEO agencies, and underfunded DA and public defenders offices. Absolutely nothing to do with the people that sit in front of a computer and assign docket numbers via software lol.

One office full of secretaries scanning things in is plenty. Especially now that Louisiana has gone to E-filing for most things.

Clerks of Court are entirely useless as it is. Two of them? Haha. Just come out and say you want to add a few dozen secretaries to the parish’s retirement system. It would be less cringey of a position
quote:

Why would anyone want to take action to remove him from an elected office?

Because Orleans having two clerks of court, which is already a completely useless position when there is only one of them in a parish, is asinine and blatant grift.

Why do we even need public elections for someone whose only actual job is overseeing a department of secretaries that scan things in?
quote:

Per our state constitution, they can eliminate that office as they see fit. If you contend it was because they didn’t like the outcome, I don’t really see how it makes a difference, but the burden is on you to prove it.

The thing is—even if that were the reason—it doesn’t matter. That isn’t illegal.
quote:

they grant writ,

Never before has “Writ denied” been more assured than right now, in this case.

The complainants have no case whatsoever.
quote:

Has the state ever offered a reason for the action other than "we don't like the choice Orleans Parish voters made?"

There doesn’t have to be any reason whatsoever.

The legislature giveth New Orleans it’s totally useless, redundant, grifting position that no other parish has, the legislature taketh away

Read about a kid in France during WW2 that was executed for desertion, when he thought he would only get prison time

I believe he’s the only once executed for desertion since the CW
quote:

Eisenhower racked up 9 during his time.

Is that just during his POTUS term? Or counting guys executed under him while he was SAC?

I have never thought about who had to authorize the executions during the war. There were dozens of them for rape and murder etc, I wonder if FDR oversaw that or if Ike did (or lower).

I’ll have to dig some.
quote:

That responsibility lies with the judicial branch of the government.

Not this one.
I don’t know why anyone supports it.

If we have to choose one (we don’t—this “problem” is entirely blown out of proportion) standard time is the choice.
Because of the people who live and vote there.
Does one election mean “usually”?

And that was a record voting year for the GOP with Trump on the ballot.

The GOP may over perform relative to expectations, but you won’t see numbers anything like this.

The switch in the spring actually triggers heart attacks and accidents

Good. Permanent DST is retarded.

We literally did it already and everyone hated it so bad it lasted one calendar year.

But I guess that level of common sense is not welcome in a world where the internet has decided that it’s trendy for everyone to act like changing clocks (which basically no one has to do anyway because the devices handle it automatically) is suddenly the biggest deal ever.
What are they all pissed about now?

frick, that country loves to riot.
Honestly the NFL does this on any footage or use of anything it can even tangentially claim ownership rights to.

It’s not that it’s political. They do this to high schools and shite too.
