Thank you! That was very prompt! I hope the blog posts were also fixed.

but it is not actually germane to the point I made in the interview. You said "RUMP" five times in five sentences in that bit of the article. You really don't think whether this "unashamed RUMP partisan" (as you described him immediately before the sentence in question) was posting to a RUMP group is germane to your point? No. Despite your fixation on the name of your party, the point was that Talossa can't work if we tell blatant lies as an excuse for inactivity.

Despite your fixation on the name of your party, the point was that Talossa can't work if we tell blatant lies as an excuse for inactivity. Owen Edwards made quite a few posts on Facebook while my dismissal motion in case 14-04 was gathering dust, including during the time when he said he had no internet access at home. It would have been stupid and wrong of me to accuse him of "blatant lies", because I know that when all you have is a smartphone, making a few quick Facebook posts is a heck of a lot easier than analysing legal briefs, and the ability to do one in no way implies the ability to do the other. I would never have imagined questioning Owen's integrity in such a manner. What you are trying to do to BenArd here is wrong, Miestra, and it is bad for Talossa.

Yeah, as someone who had a cartoonist go through his wife's photos to steal one for a cartoon, it's a really creepy thing to go down this road.

Poor, poor pitiful RUMP, the victims yet again.
Your King pulled a stunt which means that no-one on your side of politics can be trusted again, unless they come out against this kind of bad-faith, anything-we-do-is-right attitude to politics.

In other words, you don't need any evidence to keep sliming the RUMP and anyone associated with it, you just assume your conclusion which then becomes its own justification. Once guilt is presumed, claims of innocence are assumed to be further proof of guilt. Nice.

Ah. You have lost the public trust because you (collective "you", i.e. the Royals and their RUMP hangers-on) can no longer be trusted because of your history of shenanigans. The King ringing up ESB to push him out of the country; Manus offering Tim a knighthood to keep the King's secret on the down-low; BenArd conveniently "disappearing" when things got tough; and then the King suddenly pulling a veto out of his pocket just when you lose your power to block OrgLaw amendments in the Ziu. And somehow that's my fault.
Any decent political party with that record would issue mea culpas, and probably dissolve itself and start again. But you don't have to because you have our secretly-absolute monarch on your side and you can do what you like. It sucks and you ruin the fun of Talossa for any democrat.

Look, I won't delete the above because that would mean I was ashamed of it, and probably AD screencapped it anyway. But I apologise for it. It's the holy month of Ramadan and if I can't hold my temper now then I suck as a human being.
Sorry, AD and Cresti. I am made really angry by the power of the monarchy in Talossa, and thus the power of pro-monarchists over the rest of us; but there is no point in hurling angry words. I withdraw and apologise.

Everyone loses their temper now and then, and it's harder if you're fasting, I imagine. No worries. Just for context for other readers, though, so they don't take your previous words as gospel (particularly new citizens who weren't around then), I should note that we only have ESB's word that he felt that there were other implications to that call (not saying he's not trustworthy, but when his big fraud was revealed, he might not have been thinking straight), that your own Government dropped all charges against Hool very recently and there is not a shred of evidence to suggest any wrongdoing (as we would have found out, if the case had been allowed to go to trial!), and that you seem much more cognizant of Beneditsch's absence delaying the trial than of the extended absences and resignations of the prosecution (which, again, dropped the case). And of course, no one has blamed any of that on you, except inasmuch as you are second-in-command of the Government and responsible for its decisions in large part. The Government included His Majesty in a conspiracy charge without evidence, then dropped that charge in the amended complaint without apology or explanation. The Government charged Hool on a variety of things, and then dropped the case in the middle without apology or much explanation beyond "lessons learned." No one has had the chance to clear their name, and the entire affair is something of which the criminal justice system should be ashamed. It's quite beyond the pale for this Government or its representatives to charge people with crimes, drop the charges without apology, and then continue to try to use those charges as a smear tactic to defame their political opponents.
