Jenna Ellis (Flipped)

-


 

















Jenna Ellis is the poster-child for the dangers of homeschooling.  Her skimpy credentials rely on a stint as a deputy district attorney in Colorado where she mainly handled traffic complaints. At first she didn't like Trump but when he became the nominee, she supported him. Apparently blinded by her beliefs, she joined up with Rudy G to undermine US election results and found herself eventually charged with racketeering along with so many other trump lawyers.

She has now flipped in the Georgia case. You can see her tearful apology here.

Her legal background, if you would call it that, included self-publishing a book The Legal Basis for a Moral Constitution: A Guide for Christians to Understand America's Constitutional Crisis (2015)  Her assertion is that the Constitution must only be interpreted through the lens of the (Christian) Bible. Lots more fun stuff at her Wikipedia entry. 

Her ambivalence about Trump plus his lack of "Christian charity" in providing support for her legal woes (which he brought about!) has lead to her undoing.

I stopped by Rubber City Comics today as I was in that area and I wanted to find out if they carried underground comics. Kenmore Comics only carries mainstream comics.  Apparently the term is no longer in use -- is there no underground anymore? Perhaps online media has subsumed it? Rubber City did have an old Zap for $75.  But the owner of the shop didn't seem to think any of the old school underground people were putting out work.  I recommended the ongoing graphic novels of Bill Griffith and his current book about Ernie Bushmiller.  I bought three comic books as pictured here. The Mask because of the subject and it is DC. Very happy to find the artwork of Curt Swan inside!  The Metal Men is an updated version of my old faves.  And Brazilian Wax was recommended to me by the proprietor, who thought I might like it. He was right! Let's open the books and checkout a sample page of art in each: The first page shown above, from The Mask #9 1987 calls me back to the DC comics of my
