Trump Hit With Harsh Truth After Harsh Truth From Former Voters In Scathing Ads

As Trump takes over, the RNC shutters its minority outreach program

Trump is not going to win.

I hope not r5, and honestly I am more hopeful since the state of the union. I do feel as if some corner has been turned. Still not 100%, but getting there.

r4, it was only geared to young White Supremacists anyway.

Remember “Diamond & Silk”? Silk is still living. MyPillow guy, Mike Lindell, funded them, is still promoting the name; and Lara Trump interviewed them on Fox News until the network canned them for promoting misinformation.

Silk is still around, being dusted off, and ready to advocate for Trump ‘24 and the MAGAs.

Do the Republicans still think the throwback to Silk, Rochelle Richardson, will bring the black folks to Trump?

She speaks of “the devil” who she claims are Biden and other Democrats.

Rumble Streamer, Nick Fuentes, a 25 year old, is a Lauren Boebert favorite.

[quote] Fuentes claims the Holocaust was “exaggerated” and that history lessons about World War II are designed to “engender in people a profound sympathy for Jews.” Then, citing the dangerous myth that Jewish people are all-powerful, Fuentes says, “They run the major talent, all the major talent agencies in Hollywood. They run all the major record labels. They run all the major Hollywood studios. They run the most wealthy hedge funds.” In reference to gas chambers used to murder Jewish people during the Holocaust, Fuentes comments, “I don't know if I buy that.”

Nick Fuentes is the worst. Just a horrible bigot. A Rumble is partly funded by Peter Thiel aka Roy Cohn 2.0

Nick Fuentes is essentially a Nazi. All the people playing footsie with him and his movement are letting us know that the Republican Party these days is totally fine with neo-Nazis and are tired of pretending they're not.

The Republican Party sends out actual Nazis to enforce their social agenda; busting up drag shows, blocking Disney World, shooting up gay bars. Whatever evil they are pushing, they are using actual Nazis to enforce it.

The entire Republican Party is a Nazi organization. Even those who don’t actually get their hands dirty.

[quote] The environmental nonprofit group Rainforest Action Network (RAN) noted on its website that Chubb does business around the world, including with several major American adversaries. The group pointed out that Chubb is "insuring oil and gas extraction and transport in Russia, fueling Russia’s war on Ukraine."

Uh-huhhh...

There are rumors going around twitter about a Rudy Giuliani sex tape. Barf.

MAGA is outnumbered by intelligent voters.

There aren't enough ews in the world, r18.

That "My Pillow" guy says he'll release "undeniable proof" of irregularities from the 2020 election on Thursday that will get Turnip "reinstated."

And I've got a bridge to sell you.

R21, his “irregularities” are because he didn’t get enough fiber.

He's been saying variations of that for three-and-a-half years now.

Can no one in his family have him committed?

What could possibly go wrong?

As long as it goes wrong for Mnuchin, I'm good.

yes, Pillow Man is certifiable

MyPillow guy was going to announce his revelations on the steps of the supreme court but his lawyers talked him out of it. I'm surprised he still has lawyers.

Anything involving Mnuchin invites sliminess. TikToc is better off with the Chinese Communists compared to him who will sell the data anyway and put personal data in the hands of Bannon and the MAGA gestapo.

MNBC Katy Tur announcing that a Court of Appeals just advised scumbag extraordinaire and forever trump licker Peter Navarro, to report to prison in Miami. Bye motherfucker. Bend over for those boys.

—BLUE Ft. Lauderdale

^ Amit Mehta was nominated by Obama. Bannon is still allowed to be out (for the very same charges as Navarro) because his is a Trump appointed judge.

Don’t like linking Fox, but the fix was already set-up for Mnuchin & gang to acquire TkTok.

Here’s Miss Lindsey, not a trophy wife yet.

I think I'd trust ownership of TicToc remaining in China over republican/conservative taking ownership.

Cannon rejects Trump's dismissal request.

I hope he gets fucked, and not in a welcoming way. Another losing Trump endorser. Good times.

I'm sure Tom Cotton, Josh Hawley, Lindsey Graham, and Tim Scott could recommend some young guys to have fun with him

Tim Scott calls Lara Trump "brilliant"......poor thing just keeps humiliating himself

This Uncle Tom is the worst damn jigaboo ever.

He’s just tryina give old Uncle (Clarence) Thomas a run for his dirty money

R47 If Harlan cheats on Clarence with Tim, Ginny will have a hissy fit and insist Donald intervene and fix the love triangle.

Tim Scott is just contemptible.

How easy will it be for them to remove the prosecutor? Glad that Fani Willis can stay on. The ruling is so stupid, but at least the case can proceed.

The ruling is fine. The case goes on and Fani Willis was an idiot for making her boyfriend the Trump prosecutor. Really stupid.

Sorry r52, I wasn’t clear.mi thought the ruling was stupid in making them choose between Fani Willis and the prosecutor. But yes, the end result is Dump didn’t get what he wanted, Fani removed from the case.

One can’t wait!

My favorite is Grace Coolidge. She had her portrait done with her dog. She had multiple pics done with dogs. A real animal lover, she had a pet raccoon. There’s a pic of that too.

Coolidge wasn't vice-president, r62.

Mike Johnson: Still being a sh*t.

His denunciation is way too soft. There needs to be an uproar.

I suspect Mikey hasn't had a decent shit in months.

I know we all can’t stand Mike Pence, but this is in stark contrast to boot lickers like Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio and all the other Republicans whom Dump has insulted but still sing his praises.

Cruz and Rubio are still in office, r66.

They’re not the only ones Dump has insulted, yet still kiss his ass. They were only meant as an example.

Yes, r68, but it's why they're in a different position than Pence.

[quote]Cruz and Rubio are still in office

They also didn't have a lynch mob sicced on 'em by Trump.

Serbia was under the false impression that because Serbia fought with the Allies against the Nazis, that Nato would give them a pass on their own little genocide.

The NATO started bombing Serbia.

[quote] South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham (R) criticized Georgia Judge Scott McAfee’s “nonsensical” ruling not to disqualify Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis (D) for once having a romantic relationship with a prosecutor she appointed to the case against former President Trump. Graham said “politics” is hanging over the election interference case against Trump and his allies, and McAfee’s decision “reinforces” the narrative of a “two-tiered” justice system going after the defendants.

The Hill fails to mention Graham is an unindicted co-conspirator in the Georgia case. He tried every legal maneuver he could to avoid complying with a subpoena. Once he did testify, word is he threw Trump under the bus to avoid being indicted himself. He denies giving unfavorable information about Trump.

Shouldn’t Graham be keeping her mouth shut in this matter?

The girl can't help it.

Biden is breaking fundraising records

R93, while I'm glad to hear this I do remember that people thought Obama couldn't beat Clinton in the primaries because she was so adept at raising funds.

R94 Not exactly the same. Biden showed his base that he's ready for the challenge. Meanwhile, Trump's base knows that any money raised is going to go towards Trump's legal bills and fines. And many people don't care to pay his bills - even within the RNC.

Apples and ping-pong balls, my friend.

R95, true...

I think Lara gaining control of the RNC might be the single best thing to happen this election cycle.

The alienation of the other Republican candidates will be pretty much total.

Profound nepotism and cult allegiance at the RNC will end up being a major national, financial scandal during the next year. What’s illegal, the revamped RNC will find a way to do it.

Yes, and hopefully the media will treat it that way r97. And not just go with their usual lighthearted belief that it's just a given that the Trump Cult is filled with corrupt cunts from top to bottom, and the real scandal is that two lawyers in Georgia fucked each other.

Trump absorbing the RNC is just like him reestablishing the Trump Foundation.

The Trump Republican National Foundation.

Not just the complete alienation of other R candidates, R96 - But there's not going to be any money for down-ballot R candidates. People who would normally rely on the RNC's national money will have to turn to their individual state's party. And we all know that many of those state parties have diddly-squat in their bank accounts.

Don’t be so sure, Walter. There are PLENTY of PACs out there that will fund down ballot races, if only to take over state and local governments in order to keep pushing their bullshit.

Don’t think the RNC and the NRA going tits up will put a damper on down ballot races. The dark money will still pour in through the various PACs.

Plenty of DARK MONEY CITIZENS UNITED PACS to fund dark money down ballot races.

The MAGA congresswoman’s arguments were summarily dismissed by legal experts, however, who noted that Greene did not cite a “sufficient basis for judicial recusal” and that McAfee’s ruling was highly critical of Willis’ “unprofessional” behavior.

Bravo Joe @ R103. While his predecessor now talks of animals and bloodbaths, The President owns the criminal cretin with cool sassy wit. We need much much more of this. Reminds me of when Obama calmly demolished Trump at the WH correspondents' dinner.

Give her some dickydoo, Zelensky.

Until she slaps the shit out of Mike Johnson, what will she accomplish?

Miss Lindsey didn't have any plans to actually fund Ukraine. He just wanted to catch a glimpse of Zelensky's FUCKING ENORMOUS balls.

Re R122 -R127

Uh, Linds, the House HAD that fucking deal and MAGAt Mike blew it up because the orange traitor (that fool blackmailing YOU), told him to.

So you can just down STFU and STOP WASTING MY TAX DOLLARS on your stupid fucking BOONDOGGLES!

Chief Justice Roberts sends Navarro to the clink.

Republicans with the slimiest majority, have an ultra- MAGAt contingent supporting more right-wing primary challengers instead of the leaning centrists incumbents. These districts are going to be competitive in the general election.

Asshead Matt Gaetz is leading the attacks. He can thank Merrick Garland.

[quote] "I would love nothing more than to just go after Democrats," Gaetz told CNN. "But if Republicans are going to dress up like Democrats in drag, I'm going to go after them, too. Because at the end of the day, we're not judged by how many Republicans we have in Congress. We're judged on whether or not we save the country."

Ruby and Shaye are suing Rudy Giuliani AGAIN. Good.

Please, I beg you, start paying attention to your local news. Pay attention to how they report the news, what they report or don’t report, what they leave out/put in, the words they use. I’ve told you all one of my local news stations, not owned by an obvious RW company, started aggressively reporting crime/inflation in January’22. They’d show charts showing the raw numbers for crime comparing them to ‘19. It was relentless. Then they stopped showing the graphs/charts. I later found out because the raw numbers were dropping. They switched to showing as much crime and inflation as they could. Story after story. Of course the BORDER CRISIS was thrown in.

Then the midterms came.

The day after they went a whole hour that I watched without showing one crime or one inflation story. Not one. It’s very odd for a local news station to not show a crime story, but they didn’t. Poof. Stories gone.

They’ve ratcheted back up now, of course. They really started back slowly after the midterms. Keep an eye on them. Call them out on social media.

Also, be prepared for companies to price gouge close to the election (inflation) and gas to suddenly surge due to some out of the blue emergency. Watch things closely. Notice any language cues from journalists (they’ll give it away ahead of time) about what might be the plan.

Russia, the Saudis, Turkey, China, world billionaires, all want the USA to lose our democracy. Once we fall, EU will rapidly fall.

I think Biden will win handily, but they will not make this easy.

You can tell I just got off a call with a few DC friends.

LOVE you FCI!

Tell your friends we are watching and we are voting!

Also, tell them to lean into Biden to dismiss Garland already.

FCI - part of this is because local stations have stoped reporting real, intensive, news (budgets are too tight for that). It’s much cheaper to simply report on a horse race - as if elections were just another game.

They ignore the fact that sporting matches generally only determine whether a handfull of players and owners make bank.

Elections determine whether hundreds of millions of citizen’s’ daily lives are going to be bettered or battered.

Stefanie Lambert, a Michigan lawyer who has championed dubious claims of election fraud, was arrested in Washington, D.C., Monday afternoon because of a bench warrant, according to a spokesman for the U.S. Marshals Service.

The arrest ended an 11-day saga of uncertainty that played out after Oakland County Circuit Court Judge Jeffery Matis issued a warrant because Lambert failed to appear for a hearing related to four felony charges she's facing in Michigan.

Lambert, who's gained prominence among supporters of former President Donald Trump, refused to turn herself in and attempted to challenge the warrant in court filings. On Wednesday, Matis called on the attorney from South Lyon "to comply with that warrant."

Cunt

What the nonsensical fuckery is this bullshit?

Trump's campaign team is quietly vexed about the lack of the smaller donors that buoyed the former president to the White House back in 2016, according to a CNBC report that cites members of Trump's inner sanctum.

Trump’s campaign reported raising just $3 million from small-dollar donors in January this year — those that give $200 or less, the outlet reported citing OpenSecrets. For 2023, Trump’s reelection campaign reports raising 62.5% less money from small-dollar donors than it did in 2019.

From the link above at R139 - MAGA Judge Cannon, who is in charge of the classified documents case, says that either the jurors get to see all of the classified material, or Trump gets off the hook.

This woman is batshit crazy.

That dumb bitch is going to earn herself a prison sentence of her own.

Well this gives Jack Smith the grounds to kick the case up to DC appeals court.

Legal people are saying he probably won't, but let's see. This is fucking crazy.

Smith is working for Merrick Garland who is probably advising Judge Cannon to pull these shenanigans so Trunp will get off the hook with his legal troubles.

Biden needs to terminate Garland. It won’t look good, but Garland with his closeted MAGA behavior, is beyond disturbing. Garland delays and avoids. A Trumpian tactic.

Garland is not maga and he’s not pulling strings to help Trump. He’s just overly cautious and has not done his job well. It is that simple.

Joyce Vance on Judge Cannon's order:

"Although the order is only two pages, it's perplexing.

It's two page of crazy stemming from the Judge's apparent inability to tell Trump no when it comes to his argument that he turned the nation's secrets into his personal records by designating them as such under the Presidential Records Act.

The assumptions in Judge Cannon's two scenarios virtually direct the jury to find Trump not guilty."

Smith needs to go over Cannon but Garland would not like that.

Smith is special counsel. He doesn't need Garland's approval to take this case out of Cannon's court.

Trump sues ABC.

NYT: Former President Donald J. Trump filed a defamation lawsuit against ABC News on Monday, arguing that the anchor George Stephanopoulos had harmed his reputation by saying multiple times on-air that Mr. Trump had been found liable for raping the writer E. Jean Carroll.

A jury in a Manhattan civil case last year found Mr. Trump liable for sexually abusing and defaming Ms. Carroll, but did not find the former president liable for rape

The judge, however, later clarified that because of New York’s narrow legal definition of “rape,” the jury’s finding did not mean that Ms. Carroll “failed to prove that Mr. Trump ‘raped’ her as many people commonly understand the word ‘rape.’”

Oh, that is fucking RICH. What an asshole.

It wasn't rape! It was sexual assault! DUH!!!

This is hilarious because it will lead to an official determination of Trump as rapist and if unsolicited Digital Rape is actually Object Rape and RAPE-RAPE. I think that E. Jean Carroll needs to sue the State of NY to invalidate ALL of Trump's NDA CONTRACTS.

Trump has been forbidden to do business in NY as a result of being a fraudster and illegal business activities. Time to see the CRIMES he hides behind NY NDA CONTRACTS.

All the catch and kill NDAs are in the Pecker Files and those files are held by SC Smith. Or is it NYDA James.

As nauseating as this is, I think it is probably correct.

And while I will argue that Garland is a huge and inexplicable exception to my next statement I am going to go out on a limb and make it anyway: I believe that Joe Biden, who has seen the wheels of DC grinding away for decade after decade is, ironically, the best and maybe only hope we have of finally breaking the gerontocracy that is holding us back. Giving the "old guy" more opportunities to level the playing field and bring in new and diverse voices may save us...if we let him.

[bold]Jared Kushner says Gaza’s ‘waterfront property could be very valuable’[/bold]

Jared Kushner has praised the “very valuable” potential of Gaza’s “waterfront property” and suggested Israel should remove civilians while it “cleans up” the strip.

The former property dealer, married to Donald Trump’s daughter Ivanka, made the comments in an interview at Harvard University on 8 March.

Kushner was a senior foreign policy adviser under Trump’s presidency and was tasked with preparing a peace plan for the Middle East. Critics of the plan, which involved Israel striking normalisation deals with Gulf states, said it bypassed questions about the future for Palestinians.

His remarks at Harvard gave a hint of the kind of Middle East policy that could be pursued in the event that Trump returns to the White House, including a search for a normalisation deal between Saudi Arabia and Israel...

[quote] Smith is working for Merrick Garland who is probably advising Judge Cannon to pull these shenanigans so Trunp will get off the hook with his legal troubles.

There are those informal lines of communication. While Merrick pursed the lower level rioters engaging in violence, what he has done to prosecute the planners and organizers have been delayed and shallow. He appears to be an elitist, showing deference to the insurrection big shots, particularly those in political roles. Ginni Thomas, for example, is not a goddess. Garland speaks about justice for all, equality, human rights, fighting discrimination; yet the exceptions in the privileged political sphere are obvious. DoJ is going after Menendez. That one cannot be ignored because of how blatant and repeatedly the alleged crimes stand-out.

The entirety of the House Republicans are set to endorse Trump. I got an RNC robocall (I think I got on that list because of all the calls I have been making to my soon to be one term Congressman) announcing it today.

I always thought that Mike Gallagher was hot. I bet he throws a nice fuck.

The pathetic part of hiring her r189 is that if she took about five minutes to be honest about the RNC and the whole Republican Party, she could actually be useful. But I assume her role will be to pretend that everything is fine and normal and nobody has been sent to steal everything in sight.

and of course to cunt about Joe Biden, and no doubt Hunter Biden.

Agreed, R195. Why NBC/MSNBC? Why didn’t she take her ass to FOX? She could’ve peddled her bullshit much more easily there.

Oh, well. If nothing else, I guess watching her go toe-to-toe with the likes of Rachel, Joy, Lawrence, etc. should make for good television.

Really, NBC...REALLY?

Looking forward to a House Speaker I'd actually want to fuck.

I am furious about the Ronna hire. It is egregious. It is profane.

Party Of Personal Accountability!

r200 - I'm with you, FCI.

Ronna McDaniel was behind the deceptive scheme during the Census period to send out questionnaires that looked liked the census forms but were intended to solicit extensive and very personal information from respondents. They were mailed ahead of the real census forms. The RNC was the source for return, but even the return address was deceptive. Thousands and thousands of people were deceived, particularly the elderly and other unsuspecting recipients of the forms.

The RNC really needed to be prosecuted for that. That was not the only dishonest and unethical undertaking the RNC initiated.

The RNC is just swapping crooks in leadership.

NBC hiring Ronna is disgusting.

Ken Buck has told people that 3 or 4 really big names will resign next.

Kay Granger is a given. She stepped down from her powerful committee today.

Whut? Since when do rethugs care about a scumbag billionaire who carries their water? Why in the fuck would they care anything about his government contracts?

He’s a racist shitstain who implicitly supports them, their lies and their platform.

Why would they even bother to bat an eye at that pathetic, thin skinned apartheid blob?

No budget = no new contracts executed.

No news contracts executed = bad for Elmo’s cash flow.

Holy shit...

What’s the scoop on Packman. Does he play with mens?

No, r213.

So after the outrage of Romney being hired by msnbc/nbc, they decided she would not be on MSNBC, just on the NBC network.

She’s doing Meet The Press tomorrow, think.

Apparently there were angry hosts from MSNBC and they stated they didn’t want her there.

^^^^^^^^^

Good for them. Why hire this MAGA slime? Fair and balanced reporting? I’ve had enough of the both side bullshit. CNN being the biggest offender for years by employing MAGA pundits. They create more frustration and deflection than they’re worth. Although, I do love it when they get called out, and get their asses handed to them.

MAGA Marsha, when Trump visits your town in Tennessee, will you be waving palm branches?

“Don Poorleone” is quite funny.

The biggest punishment, outside of prison, for Trump, would be he goes totally broke, and loses all his properties and no one will grant him loans.

He moves into a cheap double-wide mobile home, outside the Everglades, that an elder MAGA fanatic signed over the deed to Trump at no charge. Trump will have to remove the python that’s been living underneath the unit for years.

Money means everything.

11 months ago; still pertinent.

I'd prefer him to live in poverty rather than jail.

His fan base will vanish like magic if he can't pull the billionaire act. Without that he's a broken-down old drunk at the end of the bar, minus the drunkenness (which somehow makes it worse).

He two fucked-up sons will limp from job to job, getting fired repeatedly for fucking up.

Jr.'s coke habit will worsen. Melania will return to Europe with Barron. Gargoyle will move on to greener pastures. Lara will divorce Eric and stick him with the kids. Ivana will finally change her surname and phone number and locks, etc.

Tiffany will send them a Christmas card every year.

What *are* Eric and Junior going to do for a living?

Unfortunately, I don't look for any of them to be slumming it.

All of them probably have plenty of their cash laundered overseas or in a Swiss bank.

And, Jared may have taken some of his in-laws cash for safe keeping, stored in his hedge fund that was so generously funded by Mohammed Bin Salmon to the tune of 2 billion dollars.

R229, I doubt they'll be starving to death, but if they lose Mar-a-Lago and Trump Tower, they've lost the brand, the only thing their pathetic lives have revolved around.

And I doubt Jared thinks or cares of what happens to his father and brothers-in-law.

Lady Lindzebelle would be devastated, but will abandon fast Trump for a new “daddy”.

R217 Elderlez, I do not. I am a tad shocked they are resigning and doing so when they can’t be replaced until November. I don’t think they have any more scruples left. Lol

I suspect it’s more disgust than lack of scruples.

For example, Members view a seat on the Appropriations Committee as a long term ambition. . But the Rs have so screwed up the House’s operations that ersatz Approps bills, that were to define spending going forward from September 2023, are only now being “rushed” to the floor after the year’s half over.

The system’s so fucked up that the Committee Chair is voluntarily relinquishing one of the three most coveted assignments in the House.

Excellent graphic @ R225 would be perfect for huge projection onto a Trump property. Photos of which would surely make many front pages. A nickname once seen, never forgotten!

I wonder what they are like in private? Do they all pretend to believe Daddy and parrot what he says, with fake smiles? Or are they all totally in on the grift like a mafia family, plotting and scheming their next move? How can they run a company when there are so many court cases and lawsuits to juggle? And not being in the same office must make it difficult to communicate; do they call each other all day long: ("Dad, necktie sales are down. But we have an offer to revive Melania's caviar creme...")?

Is it a finely-oiled machine- or just a chaotic shitstorm?

I got a fundraising email from Jon Hamm. He's campaigning for Lucas Kunce, the Dem running against traitor Josh Hawley

April 15th, how apropos. I wonder if he'll pay $700 again... due to business 'losses'?

My goodness, Miss Lindz flips back to supporting funding Ukraine after formally voting against it, and when she was far the funding before that.

Did Trump ignore her too much at Mar-a-Lago this past weekend?

Quote of the Day

“You can’t have an election in the middle of a political season.”

— Donald Trump, at a news conference earlier today.

^^^.

He's is incoherent R243.

A tired, pissed Trump addresses the Fake News today. His lawyer was bitch-slapped by Merchan.

No, I think he meant that you can't have a political season in the middle of an election. Uh, no, wait, I mean you can't have an election season during a political - something or other... you know what I mean.

Fucking die already.

[bold]Fact check: Trump tells ‘mind-bogglingly nonsensical’ story about the New York Stock Exchange[/bold]

Former President Donald Trump told a story on Monday in which he claimed that he decided not to list the Trump Media & Technology Group on the New York Stock Exchange, even though the exchange “badly” wanted the company, because businesspeople are “treated too badly in New York” and “don’t want to be attacked by a thug like this horrible attorney general that we have in New York.”

There is one problem. The story does not make any sense.

Facts First: The stock exchange on which the Trump Media & Technology Group is being listed, the Nasdaq, is also headquartered in New York. In fact, the Nasdaq and the New York Stock Exchange are located in the same New York City borough of Manhattan. In other words, all of the New York laws and political oversight that would have applied to the company if it was listed on the NYSE will apply to the company when it is listed on the Nasdaq...

He looks like a confused and scared old man in the photo at R248.

And evil. He never stops looking evil.

Josh Hawley's wife is in front of the Supreme Court, trying to get abortion medication banned

Right-wing asshole sentenced for sending death threats to the AZ Secretary of State

Trump's monologue @ R245 has the detail and energy of an unbalanced conspiracy theorist. Given his negative influence, it's also disturbing. Scattering out names who are 'crooked' and 'thugs' would seem to be actionable, but of course he doesn't care. If or when his named 'crooks' or 'thugs' receive threatening messages, his monologue has done its work.

Yeah, good luck with that, Judge.

Is it just me, or does Erin Hawley have caneface?

She’s oddly lipless. It’s like she FGM on her face.

I'm at the point where the Supreme Court can fuck off. What changed where they are now running the country?

[quote]“If you threaten violence against the public servants who administer our elections, there will be consequences,” said Attorney General Merrick B. Garland. “The right to vote, which is the cornerstone of our democracy, relies on the ability of election workers and election officials to perform their duties without fearing for their lives. The Justice Department will continue to aggressively investigate and prosecute those who threaten these public servants.”

Now if you are rich and/or have a high ranking elected Republican position within government, well then it is completely negotiable.

Apologies for the TikTok link, but this political analyst talks about how polling continues to undercount Dem votes. It will ease some fears about Dump potentially winning in November.

Comer Pyle is gross

Yesterday, Judge Merchan issued a gag order barring Trump from attacking witnesses, prosecutors, court staff, their families and jurors.

I can’t get over the huge win in Alabama. A Trump +1 district, won by a Republican by 7 points, swings 32 points (+25) for the Democrat. Polling was all wrong, too. Way off. This is great news. Polling is not catching the support for Biden or Democrats. There is going to be a lot of “shy” Biden voters who won’t say they’re voting for him, but will in the privacy of the ballot box.

If this were reversed the media would not stop talking about this being the canary in the coal mine for Democrats and how this is doom and gloom.

[quote] If this were reversed the media would not stop talking about this being the canary in the coal mine for Democrats and how this is doom and gloom.

[quote] Polling was all wrong, too. Way off.

yeah, this is very interesting. Abortion still seems to be this stealth issue, somehow not getting captured in the typical polling.

Because pollsters and the media have decided that women should have “gotten over it” by now and don’t want to hear the truth.

Congratulations Alabama!

It really frosts my ass that scumbag extraordinaire, Mike Johnson, per Trump’s orders, refused to bring the Senate bipartisan immigration bill to the floor for a vote. If we could get that bill to pass, we could take away a major maggot talking point about the “brown people ”

R293 didn’t ya hear that women are interested in the “Economy” not “abortion.” as if the ability to control whether or not they have a baby doesn’t impact the finances of women of childbearing potential.

Larry David on Trump, last night on CNN:

“You can’t go a day without thinking about what he’s done to this country because he’s such a little baby that he’s thrown 250 years of democracy out the window by not accepting the results of the ― I mean, it’s so crazy, he’s such a sociopath, he’s so insane, he just couldn’t admit to losing. And we know he lost. He knows he lost. And look how he’s fooled everybody, he’s convinced all these people that he didn’t lose. He’s such a sick man. He’s so sick.”

Biden's fundraiser with Clinton and Obama brought in $25 million

Did Larry David mention anything about that pinched-face cunt he employs whose husband is trying to get Trump elected via spoiler?

Who’s that, r300?

Oh wait, r300, geez I’m a little slow today. I figured it out.

The media pushes this “horse race” to sustain Trump’s support, sell ads, keep viewers on edge watching and grow the numbers. TV, radio, podcast, YouTube, other social media, etc. yappers want to build their name recognitions, resumes, and collect $$$$, often delivering outrageous claims to enhance their volume of “hits”.

That’s true r303. We keep forgetting that even news outlets have to make money.

Matt Schlapp groping that campaign worker’s crotch cost nearly a half billion dollars. Apparently, Schlapp didn’t even get to suck that penis.

r303, we live in a Mark Burnett world where political races are now week-to-week audience voting (polls), and the buildup to Roevember will be staged in increments. Will Trump get the Immunity Charm from the Supreme Court? Are Evangelical Women creating an ALLIANCE with all other women, like it is 1919-20? Are Evangelical White MALE Supremacists sorry that a hundred years ago they gave women the vote and the only way to control them is by criminalizing their VAGINAS?

And what about Naomi?

And what about my Skeeter??

The stupid, it wounds: Trumpist Michigan State Rep. Matt Maddock took to Twitter last night to air his mistaken impression that the Gonzaga University basketball team landing at Detroit Metro Airport was instead a group of "illegal invaders" being shipped up from the southern border.

When one of Maddock's followers informed him of his mistake, the Michigan Republican replied by saying, "Sure kommie. Good talking point."

That there is some weapons grade stupidity, r309. Good lord!

I can't stop laughing at the "illegal invaders" comment

I absolutely loathe hearing Trump say "We have to do a lot of things" because it says nothing just like what is in his brain.

Lying Gym

He’s so full of shit.

[quote] I can't stop laughing at the "illegal invaders" comment

It may just be how the article characterized it, but it seemed to me that the idiot in question was complaining that the “invaders” were being shipped up from a border state.

If that was truly the case, shouldn’t he have called out Greg the Wheeled Wonder, Rhonda, or some other repugnant GQP leader for that tactic?

I like when a Trump video from 4 years ago, has Trump calling a reporter a cutie pie, you KNOW that Fred Trump sat him down one day and schooled him that you cannot call someone a cunt in public.

Use words that remind you of cunt. He calls women, NASTY. Typical cunt substitute. And cutie pie, is halfway to cunty pie. I can hear Trump tell his guys to grab women in the pie. He really is 8 years old.

He is so simple.

He is so damaged.

He is so pathetic.

He is so in need of incarceration.

[quote]In one video shared on Truth Social and played at Trump's rallies, a narrator's voice booms: "On June 14, 1946, God looked down on his planned paradise and said, 'I need a caretaker.' So God gave us Trump."

[quote]The bottom line: 64% of Republicans view Trump as "a man of faith," according to a November poll by Deseret News — more than his former vice president and vocal evangelical Mike Pence.

"A man of faith" - lol!

How Trump ripped off Scotland

It's obviously evidence of radiant mental health to equate a criminal property developer facing due legal penalties with an innocent's brutal death by crucifixion.

More late night barrage of disturbing and unprofessional messages, from both 'Trump' and 'Trump, Jr.'. It's just difficult to imagine a man as under siege as Turd taking time out of his day to repeatedly take to his phone and type deranged missives.

I have a sneaking suspicion that Junior writes all of these, in a drug-addled state. Trump doesn't like to get his hands dirty, or have things traced back to him. If the communications go too far he could always fess-up that he doesn't really write them.

[bold]Trump Plans Bigger Fundraiser Than Biden[/bold]

“As the Biden campaign touted Thursday night’s $25 million fundraiser as a political record, word leaked about a Trump campaign event that organizers say will raise even more — at least $33 million,” Axios reports.

“Trump will host donors on April 6 at Mar-a-Lago for a fundraiser hosted by New York hedge fund billionaire John Paulson, who has been floated by Trump as a possible Treasury secretary.”

^and the Trumpettes, featuring Kimberly Guilfoyle and Lara Trump, will be there!

Trump doing his part to prepare for his donor party. This is how I want to remember him after he loses in November.

Paul Gosar, Congressman from Arizona, hired as an intern, a woman who was a January 6 rioter and who stormed the Capitol.

It probably was his 1/6 assistant for the Insurrection and Sedition.

Paul is as dumb as a box of rocks and needs help tearing apart our country.

1/6 was a training exercise.

As a most prominent religious day nears, let’s pay homage to the new Moses.

"The Nation is witnessing the determined delegitimization of both its Federal and State judiciaries and the systematic dismantling of its system of justice and Rule of Law by a single man – the former President of the United States.

Never in American history has any person, let alone a President of the United States, leveled such threatening attacks against the federal and state courts and federal and state judicial officers of the kind the former president has leveled continually now for years.

But suffice it to say, never in history has any person leveled such attacks and been met with such passivity, acquiescence, and submissiveness by the nation.

The Jeffrey Clark saga is receiving more attention. His attorney reveals Trump actually appointed Jeffrey Clark as Acting AG for a period on January 3, a few days prior to the storming of the Capitol.

[quote] On Thursday, Clark’s lawyer Harry MacDougald offered an answer: “There was a period on Jan. 3 when he was the acting attorney general until the president changed his mind later that day.”

If Trump prevails in the ‘24 presidential election, Clark will be back in the DoJ or hold another high level administration job.

"It's time to stop letting Trump break the rules," a former prosecutor said on Friday after it was reported that former president Donald Trump posted an image of President Joe Biden, bound with rope in the back of a truck.

I said basically the same thing about Reagan and how he build a path for Trump. Imagine we had a president who says the government and the deep state were all against him.

Re: R349, it's evident that Biden is under Trump's skin. Joe is calm, responsible and statesmanlike - attributes among many others Trump can't come close even to imitating. And he knows it. All he can do is to double down, triple down, on the insane slurs. You don't obsessively refer to your opponent as crooked and a thug, or pass on an image of the President tied up and prone, if you're a confident campaigner.

As Biden maintains his dignified managerial demeanour, complete with clever subtle barbs about his 'predecessor', Trump will dig his ugly hole yet deeper - and give the Dems yet more material. On which basis, cautious grounds for optimism.

Trump is very thin skinned. He’s extremely sensitive about jabs concerning his wealth claims, humor about his vanity, exposures about his cheating at golf, and laughs about his overly stated crowd sizes. Criticisms from prominent women in politics and Hollywood particularly can get him enraged.

Damn that is one fine suit and man.

R356 Remember when Obama was in office and the biggest scandal was that he wore a light colored suit like that one, instead of the typical dark suits of dark blue, dark grey, or black, and that the right wing media called it un-presidential and undignified behavior?

Lord, I miss those days.

The Democrats better make hay out of this:

"If Donald Trump returns to the White House, close allies want to dramatically change the government’s interpretation of Civil Rights-era laws to focus on 'anti-white racism' rather than discrimination against people of color. Trump’s Justice Department would push to eliminate or upend programs in government and corporate America that are designed to counter racism that has favored whites.

Longtime aides and allies preparing for a potential second Trump administration have been laying legal groundwork with a flurry of lawsuits and legal complaints — some of which have been successful. A central vehicle for the effort has been America First Legal, founded by former Trump aide Stephen Miller, who has called the group conservatives’ '“long-awaited answer to the ACLU.'

Why didn’t Stephen Miller’s parents and teachers make him to stop eating glue?

Mark Zuckerberg doing his part to reelect Trump and extend his billionaire tax breaks:

[quote] Why didn’t Stephen Miller’s parents and teachers make him to stop eating glue?

Short answer: his parents (and grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, etc.) were all working as hard as they possibly could to make the world a better place. Stephen's insider evil is born out of a need to distinguish himself as better and smarter and stronger than the stock from which he came even if--or deliberately in service of--destroying the legacy of his immediate ancestors.

Mueller’s report to a large extent subdued the Russian-Trump connect. Barr went further in diminishing it to almost nothing. Russian assets in Congress are revealing themselves. This is the major reason funding to support Ukraine has dried.

That 60 Minutes report was strange. The US government is obviously trying to cover up what's going on with the Russians and "Havana Syndrome." But why?

R370 This is my theory. and I have zero references to back it up,. The U.S. is using their own unique, sophisticated, and undisclosed technological means for counter surveillance, targeting foreign individuals and other non-direct human methods to penetrate adversarial governments and groups therein.

Why Antony Blinken and Jake Sullivan are not publicly commenting, and that the earlier government assessment of “no evidence”, being contrary to new revelations, is indeed puzzling.,

Has Trump paid the $175M yet? Doesn't it need to be paid by Wednesday or Thursday this week?

Thursday. And if his Truth Social Disease goes through, they should return the bond to the full $400+ million.

Lean into it, Joe. Lean in.

[bold]Trump sues two Trump Media co-founders, seeking to void their stock in the company[/bold]

Donald Trump is suing two co-founders of Trump Media & Technology Group, the newly public parent company of his Truth Social platform, arguing that they should forfeit their stock in the company because they set it up improperly.

The former U.S. president’s lawsuit, which was filed on March 24 in Florida state court, follows a complaint filed in February by those co-founders, Andy Litinsky and Wes Moss. Their lawsuit sought to prevent Trump from taking steps the two said would sharply reduce their combined 8.6% stake in Trump Media. The pair filed their lawsuit in the Delaware Court of Chancery.

Trump’s lawsuit claims that Litinsky and Moss, who were both contestants on Trump’s reality-TV show “The Apprentice,” mishandled an attempt to take Trump Media public several years ago, allegedly putting the whole project “on ice” for more than a year and a half.

But it also targets the pair over their Delaware suit against Trump, saying that it was one of several attempts they made to block Trump Media’s ultimately successful plan to go public. Trump Media accomplished that goal by merging with a publicly traded shell company called Digital World Acquisition in March.

Trump Media shares have fluctuated wildly since its stock market debut. On Tuesday, the stock closed at $51.60, up 6%, valuing the entire company at $5.9 billion.

Truth Social Stock In Freefall After Financial Data Revealed

When will Dump’s partners learn? He will turn on you—always. Like gravity, it’s an absolute.

In an open display of frustration, federal prosecutors on Tuesday night told the judge overseeing former President Donald J. Trump’s classified documents case that a “fundamentally flawed” order she had issued was causing delays and asked her to quickly resolve a critical dispute about one of Mr. Trump’s defenses — leaving them time to appeal if needed.

The unusual and risky move by the prosecutors, contained in a 24-page filing, signaled their mounting impatience with the judge, Aileen M. Cannon, who has allowed the case to become bogged down in a logjam of unresolved issues and curious procedural requests.

How can Jack Smith go over Cannon‘s head and make his case to the Appeals Court?

I was going to ask the same thing R405. Trump seems to have no problem asking for recusal of a judge or the DA. A quick search returned the response below.

[quote]Although it is rare, you can actually get a new judge for a case once it has begun, but you have to be able to prove that the judge cannot effectively preside. Normally, in such circumstances, the judge will recuse themselves before it becomes an issue, but just in case they don’t, here are some criteria you can use to argue for a new judge:

The current judge, as an attorney in a previous case, represented your opponent

The judge has close ties (whether familial or not) to either party

The judge has some financial interest in the case’s outcome

The judge has strong political affiliations with either party

Aileen Cannon is a fucking problem.

He hated me because I graduated HS with honors, went to college, made the Dean’s List and got a good job later on that had a few small “perks”.

He wasn’t dumb. He was just entitled and didn’t want to better himself and resented anyone who did.

Take that witch up to the 11th Circuit.

I’m tuned into Nicole Wallace right now. DL fave attorney, Harry Litman indicated that Jack Smith is ready to take this cunt to the 11th circuit for her continual failure to make even basic-101 law decisions. Litman went on to say that this move by Jack Smith could be Cannon’s Waterloo. Good. Team Jack!

[bold]Trump to be deposed in dispute with media company co-founders[/bold]

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is scheduled to be deposed later this month by lawyers for co-founders of his social media company as part of a dispute over ownership in Trump Media & Technology Group which went public last week.

A notice filed with Delaware’s Court of Chancery, where the co-founders sued Trump Media, said the deposition is scheduled for April 15 at 10 am ET in New York, which is also the scheduled start of Trump’s first criminal trial.

Depositions often get rescheduled.

Trump campaign spokespersons did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The notice of deposition did not specify the questions and Christopher Clark, an attorney for the co-founders, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Trump Media, which owns the Truth Social messaging platform, was sued in February by Andy Litinsky and Wes Moss, two former contestants on Trump’s reality TV show The Apprentice. They said in 2021 they were pledged 8.6% of pre-merger Trump Media stock for helping to launch the company.

The co-founders accused Trump Media of denying them their stake, which they own through their United Atlantic Ventures partnership, by trying to dilute their stock and by preventing them from selling it...

[quote] Over more than two decades of working on Sen. Lindsey Graham’s campaigns, first as his finance director and then as his campaign manager for multiple elections, I watched digital operations transform from a backwater oddity to the beating heart of modern campaigns.

I think this is accurate ... and it's sadly effective for many Americans:

Another long term Miss Lindsey senior staffer making news.

[bold]Biden campaign announces pulling in $90M in March[/bold]

President Joe Biden’s campaign said it raised $90 million in March, a sum that’s likely to grow the president’s significant financial edge over former President Donald Trump.

The Biden campaign said it had $192 million in cash on hand, a total that includes funds from the campaign, the Democratic National Committee and related joint fundraising committees. It’s the largest war chest amassed by any Democratic presidential candidate at this point in the cycle, according to a Biden campaign memo announcing the totals on Saturday. Aides released the total ahead of the monthly Federal Elections Commission filing deadline later this month.

Biden’s monthly totals come on the same day as Trump is holding his own major fundraiser. The former president’s campaign said they expect to raise more than $43 million at a one-night event in Palm Beach, Florida. Saturday’s Trump fundraiser aims to top the “three presidents” extravaganza in New York City last week, when Biden, joined by former Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, hauled in more than $26 million on a star-studded night.

Biden’s financial edge has remained a bright spot for the president, who continues to struggle with stubbornly low approval ratings and trails Trump narrowly in national polling averages.

Biden and the DNC ended February with more than double the cash-on-hand that Trump and the RNC had. Trump has failed to match his 2020 fundraising totals, and he’s also diverted millions of dollars to help pay his legal fees...

And I don't have to spend the money on my legal fees!

Judge Cannon is crooked and Jack Smith knows it. I wouldn't want to be her.

OMG, R446, what I wouldn’t give for Joe Biden to actually say that. Priceless.

[quote]who continues to struggle with stubbornly low approval ratings

This is the problem with ratings and polls. THIS is the ratings and polls. Democrats do not have deep pocket Dark Money like Trump has. Trump raised 175 Million from one "insurer". For Democrats, it means that we are willing to talk the talk and walk the walk with President Biden.

And I went back on Act Blue and boosted my RECURRING contribution. I feel like Democracy is my Church.

The media is obsessed now with RFK Jr. He’s receiving a massive amount of free exposure and publicity.

Sick of this forced horse race bull crap being promoted.

Cannon is unwilling or incapable of being unbiased in her judiciary role._

It’s BOTH, r451.

She’s unqualified, inexperienced and a trumptard who is getting coached by Leonard Leo and the Federalist pukes.

She’s too stupid to know what to do, so they tell her to stall. Since she really doesn’t know how to do it correctly, she just throws shit at the wall to see what sticks.

If you think that stupid cunt was smart enough to come up with that weird issue jury instructions now then I will decide immunity AFTER the trial starts, I have a collapsed bridge to sell you.

Trump compares himself to Nelson Mandela

Waiting for his comparison to Hanuman.

Devin Nunes’ Cow?

Yep, r455, Devin's eating his feelings.

He's been binging on hamberders with Trump

[quote]Trump says on Truth Social that it would be “my great honor” to go to jail for violating Judge Merchan’s gag order and that it will make him a “modern day Nelson Mandela.”

Astonishing that Trump has for the first time ever said something with which the sane world can agree. Mandela was in jail for 27 years.

I'm for anything that will make Trump die in prison, r458.

Doesn’t even have to happen in prison!

Trump will never serve a single day in prison. Even if convicted on multiple felonies, he will be sentenced to house arrest in Mar-A Lago, which he will violate repeatedly with impunity.

Trump and the GOP must be desperate because for some reason they've started texting people who aren't supporters or given them any money. I'm getting a couple texts a day begging for money - and I've only ever given to Dems. They must really be scraping the bottom of the barrel if they are texting DEMS asking for money.

Instead of doing the "stop" command, I've been doing "Report spam and delete" - because these truly are spam. Fuck the orange one.

[quote] The decisions to depart are yet another sign of the broader drop in morale within the GOP conference. Many Republican lawmakers have largely accepted that their inability to govern is a predicament of their own making. They acknowledge that overcoming their legislative impasse relies not only on keeping control of the House in November, but also on growing their ranks significantly enough to neutralize the handful of hard-liners who wield influence by taking advantage of the narrow margins. But many also continue to say privately what few have acknowledged publicly: Republicans believe they are likely to lose the majority.

Re: the jaw-drop clip at R471. The Bible salesman and his supposed massed co-religionists now consider themselves a greater event in human history than the birth of Christ, and the Resurrection. Got it.

For the first time ever, Trump actually made me laugh: his grotesque silhouette blocking the sun, while using music to reference a great film, was so preposterous, not least in its blindness to self-parody.

But then at the end the berserk MAGA chanting instantly made me think of Nuremberg rallies, and I stopped laughing.

Want to delay your trial? Sue your judge!

Trump's head probably IS big enough to block out the sun

Trump's ass is definitely big enough to block out the sun.

Miss Lindz "respectfully" disagrees with Trump's new abortion stance. No hissy fit with Trump. She's an expert on vaginal and uterus matters as well as parenting, you know.

Who else does Miss Lindz say she is respectful to when disagreeing?

[quote] Republican Rep. Jon Stone’s New Hampshire law enforcement career ended when he threatened to kill fellow police officers in a shooting spree, and murder his chief after raping the chief’s wife and children, all while he was already under scrutiny for his inappropriate relationship with a teen girl, according to the internal investigation reports finally released this week.

It is a cult. Most, not all, are poorly educated characters absent critical thinking skills. The wealthy donors support him to continue their earlier huge tax cuts and avoid regulatory measures. The nitwits believe a persecuted Trump is divine or sent to them from the Lord as a Savior. The later is basically greed and corruption.

Rita Palma, who has identified herself as the Kennedy campaign’s state director in New York, has repeatedly made the case, including in a meeting with Empire State Republicans, that efforts to put Kennedy on the ballot in New York will help “get rid of Biden,” which she called her “No. 1 priority,” and make it easier for Trump to win the historically Democratic state.

He said he was a PRESBYTERIAN? And yet he says he has the Catholic Crackers™?

He is a pan-Protestant liar.

Re R488

THe usual (useless) suspects are acting very odd

Former Trump aide says she won't vote for Trump (like so many others who worked in the Trump White House)

Trump whining again on Truth Social this morning:

"On Monday I will be forced to sit, GAGGED, before a HIGHLY CONFLICTED & CORRUPT JUDGE, whose hatred for me has no bounds.

All of these New York and D.C. “Judges” and Prosecutors have the same MINDSET. Nobody but this Soros Prosecutor, Alvin Bragg, wanted to take this ridiculous case.

All legal scholars say it is a sham. BIDEN’S DOJ IS RUNNING THE CASE. Just think of it, these animals want to put the former President of the United States (who got more votes than any sitting President!), & the PARTY’S REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE, IN JAIL, for doing absolutely nothing wrong. It is a RUSH TO THE FINISH. SO UNFAIR!"

[quote]"...whose hatred for me has no bounds."

Oh, Donald. Your Judge is but one shining representative for millions upon millions of us. But really, you know that.

[quote]"...these animals..."

And right there is just one example of why.

r492, he needs to be ball gagged in court.

The next time Trump is in a courtroom (which is always "any minute now"), the judge in his or her majesty should come down from the bench, walk to the defense table, and put the smack down on this useless bitch. Just one swift, sharp slap and an order to keep my name out of your damn mouth!

No...

The same day that an NPR "whistleblower" calls that network too liberal, this article argues that WaPo is tanking because the paper is not anti-tRump enough.

Personally, I think the author describes the trees accurately

but then continues on in search of a forrest more to his liking.

[quote]these animals

The Orange Stink continues to reference animals as if they are all cruel beasts trying to hunt him down.

The Trump’s, particularly Don Jr., have a long history of slaughtering trapped, much endangered, exotic wildlife.

Of course they don’t have pets. That’s good, given their lack of compassion for anything beyond themselves.

[quote] Of course they don’t have pets.

I beg your pardon!

Well, one can’t comfortably suck and rim standing. Whoopi’s right.

Seems on brand:

Tuberville the Turd for Pootin.

On a mission to destroy Ukraine.

Another of Trump's plans coming to fruition:

There has to be a solution to remove him. Can congress remove him if they have the votes?

Watch, come the 2024 election in several months, Louis DeJoy will have his intrusion activities in full force with the mail -in votes.

He tried in 2020, but is better set-up for 2024. Look for backup and lateness in voters receiving their ballots. There will be missing/lost ballots in metro Democratic strongholds.

This needs to be a campaign issue before DeJoy enacts his pro-Trump sinister plan, not afterwards and too late.

Why hasn’t this piece of shit been fired by the board yet?

Get rid of this trash.

[bold]Obituary Mixes Up Trump with O.J. Simpson[/bold]

A Los Angeles Times obituary for O.J. Simpson accidentally used the name “Trump” in place of “Simpson” near the end of their obituary describing the former football star leaving prison.

Freudian slip.

The Isikoff book, Find Me The Votes, is really good. Listening to it now in preparation for the Georgia trial. Fani Willis is going to kick Trump’s ass. No wonder they tried to get her removed, they must be terrified.

It is outrageous to have a Speaker of the House functioning in behalf of Putin, and making a sycophantic pilgrimage to Mar-a-Lago while urgent funding bills are past due to go to the House floor.

An Evangelical sycophantic pilgrimage to The Confederate White House is not surprising.

Do we have a timeframe yet for the start of the GA trials?

It is nice to see the Treason threads moving much faster than they were. Real discussions again!

As I recall Fani wanted to start in August. Hard to say how much the recent drama there has delayed it.

Hunter Biden is a private citizen. Lindzebelle didn’t squawk when he was subpoenaed.

Moses in Mar-a-Lago visiting the Orange Savior & paying homage to Neanderthal Marge.

Moses is desperate to remain Speaker.

The pilgrimages to the Confederate White House.

No cameras in the courtroom? Damn

Hopefully we'll get some interesting courtroom sketches

I don't believe camera in the courtroom will serve any purpose outside of turning the procedures into a circus. And with Trump, you know he will take every opportunity to grandstand and make a spectacle of himself.

Plus, if I was a juror, I'd be terrified of my face getting on camera. Can you imagine the trouble they're going to have finding a jury for this? Even if they can find a dozen non-prejudiced people to be jurors, how will these ordinary citizens be protected from the MAGAT crazies? That would be my biggest fear if I was a potential juror.

R538, all it takes is a 360° digital panorama of the courtroom.

We have digital representations of the principles, and all it takes is a script to have an AI reenactment of the day's proceedings.

For the first time in history, we won't NEED court video.

Is it just me, or are we getting flooded with stupid, inane threads? Are they trying to pretend Monday isn't happening?

In addition to Cohen and Daniels, witnesses may include the former White House communications director Hope Hicks, the former National Enquirer publisher David Pecker, and other Trumpworld figures. It’s like the “Seinfeld” finale, with all these bit players coming back as the protagonist faces legal consequences.

Somehow Trump's legal team persuaded him not to use the words 'bloodbath', 'animals' or 'thugs', or to compare himself to Nelson Mandela. Still, he'll revert to form soon enough.
