One service dog named Sparrow takes her job to the next level.

Her owner, Libbi, was filming playtime with the Golden Retriever on August 12 when the pup suddenly stopped what she was doing.

And our read of the Georgia indictment, as longtime lawyers ourselves, shows why and how that disqualification can be put into effect.

We believe the Georgia indictment provides even more detail than the earlier federal one about how Trump’s actions have already disqualified him from office, and shows a way to keep him off the ballot in 2024.

So what makes the Georgia scheme and indictment compelling for purposes of disqualifying Trump from the 2024 Georgia ballot?. »
