O’Scanlon Calls For Judge Troiano’s Resignation

Senator Declan O’Scanlon

Senator Declan O’Scanlon (R-Monmouth) is calling for the resignation of Monmouth County Superior Court Judge James Troiano, who recently ruled that a 16-year-old rape survivor was not truly raped since she was not held at gunpoint. Judge Troiano also reportedly urged the survivor to consider that her attacker came from a “good family” before “ruining his life” with assault charges.

“Judge Troiano’s comments are truly abhorrent and clearly highlight the fact that he needs to be removed immediately by the Supreme Court,” O’Scanlon said. “We simply cannot stand by and allow a sitting judge to tell a 16-year-old sexual assault survivor that she doesn’t deserve justice because her attacker might get into a ‘good college.’” Read the rest of this entry »

The press had a feeding frenzy over Trump’s stating, after the teleprompter went blank, that the Continental Army took control of the airports. The gaffe is obvious; the obsession with the gaffe is typical.

I just wonder what the press would do if Trump referred to a poor sports performance of his as “It’s like −− it was like Special Olympics or something.” Obama said that.

I just wonder what the press would do if Trump stated, “In case you missed it, this week, there was a tragedy in Kansas. Ten thousand people died −− an entire town destroyed,” when in actuality, the tornado killed a total of 12 people. Obama said that.

I just wonder what the press would do if Trump stated, “I’ve now been in 57 states −− I think one left to do,” as Obama had said.

The Fourth of July Parade

Stuart J Moskovitz

By Stuart J. Moskovitz, Esq.

Normally, I would be against any parade in America that showcases military apparatus. The military is critical to our freedom and the nation would not exist today without it, but while we truly appreciate the military, it is not the foundation of our nation and it would not be my choice to make it the centerpiece of the celebration.

Be that as it may, the current assault on the celebration of July 4 and all things American has caused me to believe that all stops should be pulled out this July 4 to send a message not to the world, but to ourselves.
