In a decision that President Trump complained was not widely reported, a federal judge has slapped down a California bill that attempted to keep Trump off the 2020 presidential ballot in the Golden State.
The bill in question was passed by California Democrats and signed by Governor Gavin Newsom. It required candidates to make public five years of tax returns to be able to appear on the 2020 primary ballot in California.
U.S. District Judge Morrison England, Jr. slammed the proposal in siding with Trump on Tuesday.
The dangerous precedent set by this act, allowing the controlling party in any state’s legislature to add substantive requirements as a precondition to qualifying for the state’s presidential primary ballot, should concern all candidates alike.

England noted that the new law appears to have specifically targeted President Trump. England stated that the law violates the First Amendment rights of candidates.
I won the right to be a presidential candidate in California, in a major Court decision handed down yesterday. It was filed against me by the Radical Left Governor of that State to tremendous Media hoopla. The VICTORY, however, was barely covered by the Fake News. No surprise!

Apparently, election details are NOT up to the states and the feds are disingenuously impotent which is I guess is a nice way of saying so dysfunctional that it would be in our best interests to dissolve that paid for chaos bunch, turn the Capitol Grounds over to the Smithsonian, and begin anew by building a new campus in Nebraska somewhere, put them all in dorms, and put time limitations on the career bureaucrats, affectionately known as the government behind the government, Deep State, and shadow government, install regular public career performance oversight that focuses on effects of whatever is going on behind closed doors (aka THE BUCK STOPS HERE). For instance, cant account for 3 22 trillion dollars, then terminate the careers of all inn the chain of command who have been negligent. Do the same for Congress. Depoliticize the Supreme Court, however that may be accomplished. Etc etc etc....Govt needs to be downsized into more democratically manageable sizes; ten bioregional governments....yeah, yer right. There is no way....
Thank you, Ms. Atkinson, for being what appears to be the last honest journalist in America.
