A Georgia man is charged with a felony after he being accused of stealing a porch from a neighbor’s front yard, according to the Coweta County Sheriff’s Office.

Robin Swanger was arrested following the incident on Clemit Harris Road in Arnco, Georgia. 

The owner of the property that Swanger allegedly took the porch from said nothing was available to be taken despite the lot appearing to be abandoned, FOX 5 Atlanta reported.

Investigators said that Swanger passed “no trespassing” signs in the yard on his way to remove the wooden porch, which was left on the property when the house was taken away, the outlet reported.

“It’s a full-size 8×10 porch. It would be what goes onto a house for entrance and exit,” CCSO investigator Chris Stapler told FOX 5. “Very well constructed.”

Investigators have described Swanger as a literal porch pirate for the theft – a term typically used for people accused of stealing packages from the doorstep of a home.

“Some people may shrug their shoulders and say it’s not a big deal, but when you take someone’s property without their consent and the value of this porch is $3,000, you can’t just go and take stuff off someone’s property,” Stapler said.

At one point during the investigation into the incident, deputies said the porch did reappear on the property upside down.

Deputies had been searching for Swanger for several days when they responded to a domestic disturbance call from a home he was located at.

He is charged with two counts of domestic violence including battery in addition to the felony theft charge for stealing the porch.

For weeks, the media focus has been on whether Donald Trump would skip Wednesday’s first Republican debate of the 2024 season.

It became increasingly obvious that he was going to blow off the Fox News debate in Milwaukee, in part because he didn’t want to sign an RNC pledge to support the nominee, but largely because he is miles ahead of the other candidates.

But now the former president says, in his inimitable prose style, “I WILL THEREFORE NOT BE DOING THE DEBATES!” Meaning, he’s not doing any of them.

There’s no great moral issue here. Candidates do what’s in their best interest. You don’t see President Biden planning to debate RFK Jr. When politicians are way ahead, they tend to sit on their lead, and when a race tightens, they often reconsider. If Trump finds himself in a more competitive primary next year, he can always change his mind and jump back in.

WHY THE HUNTER AND TRUMP CASES, DESPITE THE MEDIA NOISE, ARE NOT EQUIVALENT

Trump’s rationale behind, in the earlier part of his Truth Social post: “The public knows who I am & what a successful Presidency I had, with Energy Independence, Strong Borders & Military, Biggest EVER Tax & Regulation Cuts, No Inflation, Strongest Economy in History, & much more.”

Well, I agree with the part that the public knows who he is – and that few minds are going to be changed whether he’s on the stage or not.

I wouldn’t discount the role of Trump’s lawyers. Remember, he canceled a press conference scheduled for yesterday at which he was going to present “irrefutable” proof that the 2020 election in Georgia was stolen. Trump cited the advice of his lawyers despite typically ignoring them on such matters.

RAMASWAMY CHANGES TUNE FROM PREVIOUS COMMENTS ON TRUMP AHEAD OF GOP DEBATE: ‘NOT THE SAME DONALD TRUMP’

With Trump having been indicted four times, his attorneys may well have warned that debating was unwise because he could incriminate himself in one of the cases.

But now that Trump is turning his back on the debates, could Biden do the same during the fall election?

If the president is a few points ahead, he might conclude that he doesn’t need the traditional three debates against Trump, who could filibuster (as he did in 2020) and try to steamroll his opponent. What could Trump do after his own boycott – call him chicken?

Biden may simply not want the contrast. While they’re only four years apart, Trump projects a much more vigorous image than his successor.

The general election debates are firmly established today, but that wasn’t always the case. 

LBJ didn’t debate Barry Goldwater. Richard Nixon, having felt burned by his JFK face-off, didn’t debate Hubert Humphrey or George McGovern. Jimmy Carter met Ronald Reagan a single time.

Trump’s primary lead may seem insurmountable at this point, but a Des Moines Register/NBC poll yesterday suggests it’s not over.

AS INDICTMENTS PILE UP, DONALD TRUMP APPEARS INCREASINGLY AGITATED

Among likely caucus-goers, Trump is at 42% and Ron DeSantis is at 19% – a big lead, but not the 40-point blowout in some national surveys. The next closest candidate is Tim Scott, who sits at 9%.

Team DeSantis is encouraged by this factoid, given that the caucus is not a winner-take-all situation: “Sixty-three percent of likely GOP caucus-goers say they support Trump as their first or second choice in the caucuses or are actively considering him. That footprint is on par with the 61% who say the same for DeSantis.”

What’s more, Trump is viewed favorably by 65% and DeSantis by 66%.

Oh, but Trump’s numbers improved after the Georgia indictments.

Given the fierce loyalty of Trump’s supporters, it’s going to be hard for anyone to catch him, which is why you won’t catch him on a debate stage any time soon.

Businesses around Virginia are beginning to face fines from state regulators who say the retailers are out of compliance with laws restricting the sales of certain hemp products.

The Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services began conducting inspections last month to ensure retailers were adhering to recent legislation that aimed to end the sales of intoxicating hemp-derived products.

As of early August, at least seven businesses had received noncompliance letters, The Virginian-Pilot reported Saturday. Violations stemmed from both this year’s legislation and a 2022 bill that prohibited the sale of THC products in shapes that might appeal to children or that mimic trademarked brands, according to the newspaper.

Among the stores facing a fine is Chesapeake Tobacco & Vape, which offered five edible hemp products that were not in compliance, according to a letter the department sent the shop July 31. The letter said the business also failed to submit a mandatory disclosure form and did not have a required permit.

The shop owner declined to comment to the newspaper.

Other stores facing fines include Paradise Vapes in Christiansburg, Discount Tobacco in Gate City, N2U and Cherry Hill Tobacco & Vape, both in Galax, and Tobacco World and Skyline Cigars & Vapes, both in Warrenton.

The hemp industry loudly opposed this year’s bill, saying it would further complicate Virginia’s cannabis laws. Advocates said it would boost consumer safety, pointing to kids and others who have been sickened from the products, which have proliferated in Virginia and around the country.

Savana Griffith, owner of The Hemp Spectrum in Virginia Beach, told the newspaper that while she disagreed with the new legislation, her business adjusted to meet the parameters.

She emptied out her shelves earlier this summer, started searching for new compliant products and opened a distribution center in North Carolina.

“Luckily with that (new center), and with bringing in some compliant edibles, we have been OK,” she said.

In a statement, Republican Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s spokesperson, Macaulay Porter, said the new regulations were working as intended.

“The new hemp law takes critical steps to strengthen consumer safety and regulations around edible and inhaled hemp-derived products as well as delta-8 THC products,” Porter told The Pilot.
