It is at least now clear what happened to my Christian-Constitutional-Conservative - Freedom Caucus member. He and his family was threatened and he quit

Now, I've got a former Air Force Intell Operator, then Military contractor Deep State CLOWN that owns and operates a distillery - makes hooch

Hi @Gailm ...sorry for delay ..I was munchin.

Mom said to say hello to my Patriot friends, but also to Groot

Whatcha munchin' on?

I was over there all morning

Going through Dad's paperwork

Found my original Social Security card in his drawer

ahh dinner was great, hey everyone

and my brother's birth certificate

@Rekkedge No choice and no choice. It a conservative doesn't stand up for conservative values should they be in office in any case. Seems lawmaker should be willing to fight against corruption rather than fold like a wet suit. We need way more Sheepdog in office and not just a nice smile or smooth talker. No dissing your rep but don't understand what threat would make me quit a position of that magnitute.

@Gailm so, dad kept track of stuff you and brother were slackers about?

No, these were originals.

We had to get copies later on, like when I got married because we didn't know where the originals were

@Gailm lumpia.

how sweet of your mom.

She cares about my chat friends

And now she knows who Groot is

@Gailm Read the back of your SS and tell me what u think please.

Don't have it handy, what's the surprise on there?

It's very, very old

@Gailm Ts&cs, something you have to recognize yourself 1st. Thru time some of it was transferred to the perforated tear off people get today....so they may not have it. Doesn't change the statute tho.

It's still over at Mom's house. I didn't bring it home with me

@Groot My Representative - Tom Garrett - 5th dist VA. had death threats to his family and he and his wife had a new baby and they were both recovering alchaholics, so the threats and stress and who knows what else, forced Tom to throw in the towel. But, if Deep State wanted to plant "their CLOWN" into the 5th dist, then who knows what they did to get Tom to quit - after primary season - thus we didn't vote for Denver Riggleman in a proimary - he was appointed candidate by the Repub committee...

@Gailm OK OK...it basically says it is not yours...you have to read it.

@Gailm Mom can probably trusted not to lose it....fiber-de-jibbit

I will pick it up next time I go over there.

I took it out of my purse to make change for her.

Forgot to put it back.

We had a lot to do.

And that is a bummer.

Wall, Y'allz - 'bout tim I gah-go-heeet-mee-a-pizza in muh toe-stur-uvin

I've paid in since the early 70's

@Rekkedge Thinking about doing the same

@Rekkedge do you see anything wrong with a party "appointing" a representative. It that what your state constitution says?

Northing to eat all day

I thought that was pretty normal when a representative resigns

The governor appoints?

Well, he resigned after he said he would run for re-election and quit after primary season was over, so the candidate was picked not select-elected from a group of Repub candidates

@Rekkedge and wouldn't a candidate have have to be eligible to run..check out your original state constitution to know the answer.

@Groot I don't know and it kind of doesn't matter - we got what we got... Our state Virginia is so screwed now anyway - it's going socialist this Fall most believe anyway
