Treason of the Witch: Treason Thread #56

Thank you OP

Prior Thread

Good title!

I'm SO glad the DOJ appealed that Cannon cunt's decision.

Fight fire with fire.

DOJ believes Trump is STILL hiding top secret documents

Thank you, OP.

DOJ appeals Judge Cannon's ruling in Trump's theft of classified documents case

Trump backed failed campaign coup against Kushner, Navarro book says

[quote] less than five months before polling day, Donald Trump agreed to a “coup d’état” to remove his son-in-law Jared Kushner from control of his presidential re-election campaign and replace him with the far-right provocateur Steve Bannon.

[quote] The coup had support from Donald Trump Jr but according to a new book by the former Trump aide Peter Navarro it did not work, after Trump refused to give Kushner the bad news himself.

[quote] Fearing “family troubles if [he] himself had to deliver the bad news to … the father of his grandchildren”, Trump asked Bernie Marcus, the founder of Home Depot, a major Republican donor and a central player in the coup, “to be the messenger” to Kushner.

^ A hint of who was the mole for the MAGAt-Lardo search?

Of course Kushner knew DJT was stealing secret government files and storing them at Mar-a-Lago with the intent to sell content information. Kushner has grifted himself, but he is smart enough not to become entangled in treasonous theft whereby the feds were asking for the files back for almost a year. Kushner is cooperating. He detests Bannon and Stone too.

I stopped shopping Home Depot due to the big Trumper CEO. Take note lesbians.

To be fair, I gave the ones I wanted to MBS long, long ago.

[quote] Fox News host Tucker Carlson advised Republican candidates this year not to “emulate” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), telling them that their job is to “make fun” of him. Your job is to make fun of Lindsey Graham and to disavow Lindsey Graham,” Carlson said. “Your job is not to emulate Lindsey Graham and steal his talking points, and if you do emulate Lindsey Graham and steal those talking points, you will lose, and the losing candidates did just that.”

So then, Tucker Carlson is a Datalounger?

CNN has gone in the shitter.

Why does TC have it in for Miss Lindz, exactly? Her interventionist foreign policy?

R20, it's her anti-Russian foreign policy that rouses his displeasure. Tucker does not like the U.S. helping the Ukrainians.

[quote]This. Is. Nuts. On May 6 NARA told Trump they thought docs were at Mar-a-Lago. 3 days later, on May 9, Trump and aides were moving boxes to a private plane going from Mar-a-Lago to Bedminster. @ petestrzok connected the dots and @ cwebbonline made the video.

^^ Those aides were seen on video. They can be identified. The DoJ/fbi needs to get all their names and interview them, moving up the chain. DJT may have already moved documents from Bedminster. High probability it was the same “movers”, Follow the trail.

All those box weren’t filled with orange makeup and golf balls.

Great use of this thread title, finally. Always thought it would be for Ivanka, but I know I will have to wait to find out what she and Wendi did on their trip to Croatia. I will never let it go.

Isn’t the theory that Ivanka and Wendi were moving cash in a private plane, R24?

[quote]Louie Gohmert flew to Miami yesterday to greet J6 defendant Simone Gold as she was being released from custody after serving her sentence. He presented her with a US flag that flew over the Capitol.

R24 finally?

There have been a few threads with Ivanka and Jared in the title. Here is a link to #49.

Do NOT emulate Lindsey Graham. That bitch wore white after Labor Day!

It does have plenty of pink too, Fucker @ r28. Mar-a-Lago’s terrace is still humid at night.

Is Stephen Miller operating in Mar-a-Lago or nearby in south Florida?

Custom and Border Protection elements are re-tweeting Miller’s nasty posts.

Just what we need: a reminder of what a piece of shit Stephen Miller is.

The Justice Department has subpoenaed Stephen Miller to appear before a federal grand jury..

Please, please please imprison Stephen Miller and throw away the key. Mankind will be infinitely better off.

Miller has been Bannon’s babe protégé for years.

Miss Lindz has some sand in her cooter over Dump's latest attack on democracy.

AT&T, Pfizer,, and Home Depot CEO, have been big time Trump funders and supporters.

I mean the exact title, R27, referencing the Donovan song. I stopped watching the last thread, as it was just one person linking things I've mostly read, and was delighted to see the new one. I do love these threads.

I hope FCI gets a few posts in before it is pay only again.

OP forgot this:

I can't even imagine what a circus a jury trial would be.

It really is something two legendary actors, and legendary Star Wars actors at that, replaced each other on GL. Add to that the actresses playing their wives being legendary in their own right is a fascinating bit of soap trivia. Come on, no one has memories of them?

Nia Long’s stint on GL was interrupted by her filming Boyz In The Hood. I think this had a lot to do with her story, or lack of at times. She had a big story with David summer of ‘93 with the racist. Still, they dropped the ball writing for Nia.

Wrong thread^ ugh sorry

R42, frankly, the Trump story is so bizarre I can’t tell what’s relevant or not anymore.

The Senate Judiciary Committee will investigate allegations that the DOJ under Trump sought to use the US Attorney’s office in Manhattan to support Trump politically and pursue his critics.

Democrats need to hammer home that the GOP invited Orban to speak at their hatefest last month so America could be next on this list:

The Brooks shoes I mostly wear now have been durable.

They're plotting to make Trump Speaker of the House in 2023 if the Repugs take it back. And by "they", those who successfully organized the 1/6 siege of the Capitol: Roger Stone, Ali Alexander, Ginni Thomas, the usual cast of characters.

Wait, doesn't Dump have to be successfully elected to congress before he can become speaker?

Did I miss the part where he was elected to the House?

This scenario has been debunked, r52.

R53, the Speaker does not have to be an elected Congresman.

R55 it seems that plenty of people (and congress people) disagree.

Certainly big news…

But not Sefanik?

Crazy!

There are plenty of reasons for a SCIF to be used. Twitter goes nuts with this stuff. But I truly wish that some of these conversations revolve around Dump, because there is no doubt in my mind that the documents he stole ended up in enemy hands.

Okay, I'm dumb....what's SCIF?

[quote] “Thank you so much for the extremely kind invitation to play at your inauguration,” wrote one of President Trump’s favorite musicians, Sir Elton John. “I have given it at lot of thought, and as a British National I don’t feel that it’s appropriate for me to play at the inauguration of an American President. Please accept my apologies.”

In a related but unrelated vein, someone I follow on Twitter commented this morning that every single thing we have learned about the 45 admits testimony is damning. Not one single “feel good” or even neutral aspect that helps with understanding.

All these accusations by NY AG are simple record keeping errors made by Tiffany and Barron and they didn’t confer with me about it. Frankly, I hardly know the two.

Well, go figure.

Who’s watching the documentary, ‘The US and the Holocaust’?

It’s like watching the present day except it’s not Germany but rather it’s us. It’s is also another reason to be thankful for FDR. We truly were blessed to have that man as president during that time.

Today is shaping up to be a good day

Dump apparently asserted that he could declassify government documents 'just by thinking about it'.

So in addition to be a King by divine right, he's also a warlock.

Since the "man" has never, ever had a single thought in his life I guess that means none of the documents were declassified.

Wonder if Guilfoyle is still doing Junior?

R126 if he can still keep her on the payroll and provide the coke -sure! I am curious why he hasn’t swapped to a younger model w/ conservative business or GOP family connections…

[quote] Since 2020, Davis has faced multiple state charges in Mississippi after an investigation found that MDHS misspent more than $77 million in welfare funds under his reign. That includes $1.1 million in Temporary Assistance For Needy Families funds that a non-profit organization, the Mississippi Community Education Center, gave to retired NFL quarterback Brett Favre for speeches that State Auditor Shad White says he never gave.

[...]

[quote] U.S. District Magistrate Judge F. Keith Ball unsealed a Sept. 15 federal indictment against Davis earlier on Wednesday for multiple counts of conspiracy, fraud and embezzlement, revealing allegations that he conspired with four unnamed conspirators “to commit certain offenses against the United States.” The indictment alleges that he and the co-conspirators sought to “obtain through fraud and to divert federal funds intended for needy families and low-income individuals for their personal use and benefit.”

R126, she will as long as they keep paying her

R128, you have to be a real piece of shit to steal from poor kids in one of the poorest states. Some of these kids don't even have access to clean water. Hope Favre is next

Agreed, r130. It’s fucking disgusting.

That prick did it because he knew he could get away with it. Nobody he ripped off had the resources to go after him and sue him for this shit.

Toss him in prison, seize his assets and sell them to recoup what he stole. Then turn him over to the IRS because you KNOW he never claimed that stolen shit on his taxes.

Deplorables believe right-wing politicians are not corrupt. Plenty of them think Trump has done nothing wrong; or if he broke laws, it was to help them.

Special Master Dearie is NOT having Dump's bullshit.

South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol was caught on a hot mic Wednesday insulting U.S. Congress members as “idiots” who could be a potential embarrassment for President Biden if they did not approve funding for global public health.

[quote] Yoon had just met with Biden at the Global Fund’s Seventh Replenishment Conference in New York City. There, Biden had pledged $6 billion from the United States to the public health campaign, which fights AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria worldwide. The funding would require congressional approval.

[quote] “It would be so humiliating for Biden if these idiots don’t pass it in Congress,” Yoon was overheard telling a group of aides as they left the event. Video of the exchange quickly went viral in South Korea, where Yoon took office in May.

Well, a lot of people in Congress ARE idiots

The “Make America Great Again, Again” PAC raised only 40 bucks, but the “Save America” PAC (SAP) raised millions. It’s the appropriately-named SAP that all the MAGAt suckers are giving to, and Trump is using to pay his mounting legal bills.

[quote] In safe Republican districts, controversial Republicans like former New York State party chair Carl Paladino, Florida state Rep. Anthony Sabatini and Trump-endorsed congressional candidate Joe Kent have been targeted after distancing themselves from McCarthy’s leadership and echoing extreme claims.

Totally unrelated but every bit as creepy as R171, watch the video below of 45 and his whore wife hosting President & Mrs. Macron.

At least Manchin will explain who he is politically, will cut a deal on some matters, and he pissed off McTurtle, Miss Lindsey, and other Republicans, when he negotiated, and voted in favor of the last Biden/Democrats funding package.

Sure r173, you have no other insult to throw at Jill Biden, so you accuse her of actually the very thing Melania is.

Ok r173, sorry… but why do you have a pic of Biden when you’re referring to Dump? But sorry I accused you, I just saw the pic of Biden and assumed you meant Jill.

The cruelty is the point

While I hate anything and everything with a Trump name on it, I don't get the cruelty referenced at R193? The video keeps cutting out for me, though, so what am I missing? Looks like they were out playing and a downpour started and they had to get home with a very slow moving little tractor toy and the kid wasn't happy about it. Not much more you can do in that situation except get wet and be unhappy (probably not a new situation for any woman with a Trump name).

Maybe since you were unable to actually watch the video, r194, you might want to keep your mouth shut.

The point of the video is that Lara Trump thinks that forcing a crying child to remain out in a storm "builds character."

R195, you idiot, if that's all there was to the video, I did see all of it. I thought I was missing something abusive. You obviously do not have any children in your life. Did you want them to just leave that probably expensive toy on the side of the road because those are heavy and couldn't be carried home.

I love it when the ignorant, like you, get all upset over nothing. Attacking this kind of stupid crap just takes attention away from the actual evil this fucking family does. So, grow up.

[quote] The explosive report could shake up Walker’s closely contested race against Sen. RAPHAEL WARNOCK (D-Ga.), one that has tightened to the low single digits in recent polls. While other Republicans have avoided talking about abortion restrictions recently, Walker has leaned into the issue. He endorsed Sen. LINDSEY GRAHAM’s (R-S.C.) proposed 15-week national ban, which other Republicans have run away from, and he has repeatedly said he favors a total national ban on abortion, including in cases of rape, incest and when the life of the mother is threatened.

Is Miz Lindz heading to Georgia again to render Herschel a boost? If she enters Georgia, can authorities pick her up and hold her in the Fulton County jail until she testifies before the grand jury about her role in election tampering efforts?

Breaking: Trump asks Supreme Court to intervene in seized documents case

^ of course he does

Dump used appeals and legal threats all throughout his business 'career', to exhaust opponents and get his way.

The DOJ has no financial constraints as far as legal fees goes. I hope the Supremes fuck him up 8-1.

Clarence Thomas is beyond redemption and rationality.

I was thinking the HE PAID FOR AN ABORTION scandal would blow over pretty quickly.

But it's actually at the HUNTER BIDEN NEEDS TO BE IN GITMO level:

Donald Trump's Legal Team Is In Complete Chaos

Three former Oath Keepers/military veterans testified at trial today. Here's why it left me hopeful

Proud Boy flips:

[quote] Federal Bureau of Investigation agent identified as the site of the crimes of Joseph “Joey Snapple” Galdieri—to whom Forte is married, according to records in suburban Rockland County, where the pair own a home well outside the congressional district’s borders—and their son Joseph Galdieri Jr.

[...]

[quote] they recounted the content of wiretapped calls and security footage from inside the beverage hub. In the criminal complaint, the agent described the son arranging the drop-off of $150,000 worth of marijuana over the phone at the same time cameras caught his father pacing directly behind him in the warehouse’s office.

[quote] The agent further cited tapes that captured Galdieri Sr. meeting with the co-conspirator who brought a truckload of weed to the distribution center, and handing him a black plastic bag full of cash.

[...]

[quote] because both Galdieris are convicted felons—the younger having faced substance charges across multiple states, and the father having been found guilty of second degree assault—neither could possess a firearm under state or federal law.

[quote] The letter writers include high profile attackers of government spending, as well as several in tight reelection races, such as Florida Rep. María Elvira Salazar and California Rep. David Valadao, who like Emmer, slammed the Biden law in public and then behind the scenes asked for money from it.

[quote] Most members have not publicly mentioned the letters they sent petitioning for money from the bill they derided. Many, when contacted by CNN about their requests, either ignored questions or insisted that they were being consistent with their criticisms of the law with the requests they made.

[...]

[quote] Arizona Rep. Paul Gosar, a leading Biden critic who explained his vote against what he called a “phony” infrastructure bill by issuing a statement that “this bill only serves to advance the America Last’s socialist agenda, while completely lacking fiscal responsibility,” wrote three separate letters between March and July advocating for projects in his district. They’d enhance quality of life, Gosar wrote. They’d ease congestion and boost the economy. They’d alleviate bottlenecks and improve rural living conditions.

[..]

[quote] Iowa Rep. Ashley Hinson, who has already been pilloried by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee for touting the $829 million, which went to locks and dams along the Upper Mississippi after saying the infrastructure law was a “socialist spending spree,” has been even more active in pushing for other money. Hinson wrote seven letters to the Department of Transportation for grants which in many cases she called “vital” and “essential” and “have an impact on the day-to-day lives of every single resident in this community.”

Sen. Roy Blunt (R-Mo.) told Trump’s team afterward to fire Dershowitz on the spot, while Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) warned them to switch tactics.

“Out of one hundred senators, you have zero who believe you that there was no quid pro quo. None. There’s not a single one,” Cruz reportedly said at one point, contradicting what Republicans were saying publicly about the charges at the time.

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) also fumed at Trump’s legal team after they fumbled responding to a senator’s question about calling new witnesses. Trump’s attorneys said that it was simply too late to do so, a line Graham worried would lose Republican votes.

Then-Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell played a pivotal role in convincing GOP Sens. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Lamar Alexander of Tennessee to vote against hearing from witnesses in the trial ― an outcome he feared would split the caucus and cost it control of the Senate, but which ended up happening anyway in large part due to the man he was working to protect.

What an unfortunate looking man.

Trump's FBI conspiracy accusations continue to crumble. Sad!

Rolling Stone:

A few unhinged members of a New Jersey comedy club audience must have gotten lost on their way to a Trump rally. Ariel Elias was in the middle of her stand-up set when a person in the crowd demanded to know if she voted for Trump and another threw a can of beer at her head.

Even before the heckling, “the set wasn’t going great,” Elias tells Rolling Stone of her time on stage at Uncle Vinnie’s Comedy Club in Point Pleasant Beach, NJ, on Saturday night. The hecklers were in a large party of approximately 20 people celebrating a “Mexico-themed birthday,” she says. And the vibes were off from the beginning. Members of the group “were wearing fake mustaches and had to be told to quiet down before the show even started.”

Elias shared a clip of the incident on social media, where it surpassed a million views by Sunday afternoon. The exchange happened during a Q&A segment of her act where she interacts with the audience.

“Did you vote for Donald Trump?” a woman in the crowd asked Elias.

“Did I vote for Donald Trump? What do you think?” the comedian responded. She added, “Here’s a question for you: Why would you ask me that in here, knowing I’m the only Jew in the room? Are you trying to get me killed?”

The word “*foreshadowing*” appears in text on the screen after Elias’ prescient comment. “I know where I am,” Elias told Rolling Stone, describing that moment. “The club’s logo uses an image of a gun instead of the letter ‘L.’ She’s clearly trying to bait me into something, [so I thought] let me see where she tries to take it on her own, and maybe I can use it to get out of this.”

In an attempt at defusing the situation, Elias told the crowd, “Everybody, vote for who you want to vote [for]. I don’t care who you voted for. I’m just happy that we’re all here together.”

“I can just tell by your jokes you voted for Biden,” the woman heckler yelled.

“I can tell by the fact that you’re still talking when nobody wants you to that you voted for Trump,” Elias fired back. When the woman claimed no one told her to stop talking, the comedian said, “Make some noise if you want her to shut up,” which generated cheers and whoops from the audience.

Elias next tried to get back on track and finish her act. “Here, I’ll tell you the rest of that bit, and then we’ll move on,” she said. “I’m so insecure, I went and got an IUD…” At that moment, a person Elias described as male threw a can of beer that flew by Elias’s head and crashed into the brick wall behind her. Elias, startled, looked at the crowd with a stunned expression on her face.

“Yo, I am never coming out with this crowd ever again,” another man in the audience said.

In the video, Elias calmly bent down to pick up the beer and proceeded to chug it.

“I knew I had to chug it,” she says. “I was so relieved that there was still some left in there after it exploded against the wall. Also my adrenaline was going crazy, so even though normally I don’t drink before or during sets, I felt like this was a valid exception.”

Elias said on Twitter that the person who threw the beer “ran out of the club immediately after throwing it.” She tells Rolling Stone that Uncle Vinnie’s is pressing charges, though she declined to do so herself. “[The club] apologized, made sure I was OK, and asked if I wanted to press I charges. I don’t, because I’m never going back to that town again without someone paying me,” she says. The club has booked her to return in April.

No, r369, she kept it because she was going to turn it into gaucho pants.

[quote]Doesn’t E. Jean have the actual dress she was wearing during the rape?

How would that be relevant to the current case? It's a civil suit for defamation, not a criminal prosecution. The question of whether or not he raped her is not relevant.

[QUOTE] How would that be relevant to the current case? It's a civil suit for defamation, not a criminal prosecution.

Umm, where did I say it had any relevance to the current defamation case? I asked a simple question which can be answered with a yes or no. Your cunting is not needed.

It's relevant because this case is about him lying when he denied he raped her. Obviously the dress has some evidentiary value.

To kiss Trump’s ass, J. D. Vance will have to squeeze out Lindsey Graham. Lindsey has long laid claim to the territory of Trump’s ass that has brought her much satisfaction.

"Agents have gathered witness accounts indicating that, after Trump advisers received a subpoena in May for any classified documents that remained at Mar-a-Lago, Trump told people to move boxes to his residence at the property."

Votive or voting for democratic candidates r426.

It's hysterical and over the top. I hope I'm proven wrong, but I don't think Roe being overturned is going to drive as many people to vote as some are expecting. People are more concerned about putting food on their table.

Look at Oregon as an example. We're on the verge of having an anti-abortion Republican governor and the majority of people saying they won't vote for the democrat are citing the crime infested hellhole Portland has become as the reason.

"People are more concerned about putting food on their table."

It will be a lot harder to put food on the table with so many unwanted kids running around

"We're on the verge of having an anti-abortion Republican governor and the majority of people saying they won't vote for the democrat are citing the crime infested hellhole Portland has become as the reason."

And yet the states with the most violent crime are mostly red states. Huh, weird.

I don't know *anyone* who is turned off to votives...

Which means squat to the people living in Oregon r429. You know, the ones who will decide who our next governor is.

Ms. Kotek’s opponents have focused on widespread homelessness and safety fears in Portland, which set a record for murders last year and could surpass that number this year. Ms. Kotek helped usher into law new restrictions on what Oregon’s cities could do to remove homeless people from their streets at the same time that a new law, enacted in a 2020 referendum, decriminalized small amounts of hard drugs like cocaine, heroin and methamphetamine.

Oops r430 blame that bitch autocorrect

"Ms. Kotek’s opponents have focused on widespread homelessness and safety fears in Portland, which set a record for murders last year and could surpass that number this year"

Portland isn't even close to being one of the most violent cities in America. Crime is rising more in the red states.

There isn't any evidence that decriminalizing small amounts of drugs leads to more crime, either

What have her opponents proposed as far as alleviating the homeless problem, r431? Do they have solutions or are they just pointing fingers?

This is what happens when you elect Republican governors, more shootings, thanks to loose gun laws

Quel surp...

Again R433 that means squat to the people who live in Oregon. They are voting for governor of Oregon, not for an official in a red state that has more crime than Oregon/Portland. I know you're not that obtuse.

In the last week within 10 minutes walking distance of where I live, there has been a shooting death, a stabbing death, a shooting with multiple injuries and a cop involved shooting. The last two were on the block in front and behind my building.

To be honest R431, I don't know. I was blissfully ignoring the other candidates because I thought the democratic candidate would win. Now the the polling is so tight, I'm doing a crash course on them.

"In the last week within 10 minutes walking distance of where I live, there has been a shooting death, a stabbing death, a shooting with multiple injuries and a cop involved shooting. "

Evidence

The party who wants to know what a woman is demand to be be able to know who is Black so they can exclude more people.

A jury on Tuesday found Igor Danchenko — a private researcher who was a primary source for a 2016 dossier of allegations about former president Donald Trump’s ties to Russia — not guilty of lying to the FBI about where he got his information.

The verdict in federal court in Alexandria, Va., is another blow for special counsel John Durham, who has now lost both cases that have gone to trial as part of his nearly 3½-year investigation.

Trump predicted Durham would uncover “the crime of the century” inside the U.S. law enforcement and intelligence agencies that investigated his campaign’s links to Russia. But so far, no one charged by the special counsel has gone to prison, and only one government employee has pleaded guilty to a criminal offense.

Link is to the archived version of a WaPo article.

Someday they'll uncover that the Steele dossier was accurate.

Anna May Wong!!!

r450, everything in the Dossier has been proven true except the pee tape. The pee tape has not been proven to be true or false. It is undetermined. Personally, I believe Putin jerks off to it regularly.

L. Graham sashaying throughout Georgia with Herschel Walker reaches a new level of absurdity. That bonding and her obsession with Herschel is beyond weird.

^Theses threads do drag @ the 400s. Much of DL isn’t interested in political threads. The conversational parts usually happen earlier, and content becomes informational based on news links. Really, there is probably about a dozen people that post somewhat regularly on the “treason” threads.

There is also frustration. There are near daily revelations about sinister acts of DJT and company. Yet, justice has moved so slow, and hardly at all in some cases. Also, it is election season and the media keeps emphasizing horse races, talking-up the GQP edge.

[quote]So does Katelin, Jayden, Brayden, and Kevin Jr.

Fuck Katelin, Jayden, Brayden, and Kevin Jr. in the ass.

[quote] A professor in the Department of Political Science, Haider-Markel can speak about national political trends and potential policy implications. His research includes American politics and public policy, particularly transgender politics like Caitlyn Jenner’s influence on transgender voting attitudes, and broader LGBTQ issues involving such candidates in state legislative races and voter viewpoints on hot-button issues such as transgender military service.

Good, I need a nap.

JFC.

Just drive up to Bedminster or Mar-a-Lago or wherever the orange shitstain is, ring the doorbell, and give it to whoever answers. Say, "Donald John Trump has been served."

Sumbuddy fetch the smellin salts, cuz Miss Lindz got the VAPORS!

R486 hasn't a court already said this at least 4-5 times? Why doesn't someone grow some balls and slap some cuffs on these assholes?

Well he can (and probably will) appeal as long as he can up to the Supremes. That's a classic Dump tactic.

They're gonna have to drag Miss Lindz into that court and testify

FTFY

This explains why Lady Lindzebelle has been quite on Twitter today. The 11th Circuit panel was unanimous in their decision.

Lady Lindzebelle declares she’ll appeal. She may be counting on Brett Kavanaugh to save her. We know her endeavors with dear Brett.

Kavanaugh would be smart not to get trapped into her sinister game or think there is an IOU involved.

Who is paying for this hussy’s appeals anyway? The cost must be around a million now in legal fees.

Lindsey, for three years, used a pic of her with Kavanaugh as her Twitter account featured photo. She used a pic of her with him in her campaign literature. Prior to 2020, she went on tours for GQP candidates across the country pitching her association with Kavanaugh.

She is wacko and South Carolina voters and the media just grin and enable it.

Arrest this fucking cunt for contempt of court already!

This Queen is near the top of my 10 Most Punchable Faces list.

Corrupt! Fuck Murdoch’s Fox News propaganda outfit for featuring this old queen almost daily. Shame on South Carolina for keep re-electing her.

Is her next step really taking this to the Supreme Court? I doubt they’ll hear it.

^LG’s strategy is to delay and delay. After that’s exhausted. her lawyers will file a new reason for appeals, no matter how bogus it is, to create a new chain of delays.

Lindz has anal leakage issues.

BREAKING: Some of the classified documents recovered by the FBI from Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home and private club included highly sensitive intelligence regarding Iran and China. If shared with others, such information could expose intelligence-gathering methods that the United States wants to keep hidden from the world.

Unauthorized disclosures of specific information in the documents would pose multiple risks. People aiding U.S. intelligence efforts could be endangered, and collection methods could be compromised. In addition, other countries or U.S. adversaries could retaliate against the United States for actions it has taken in secret.

r502, You mean.........................................ESPIONAGE!

Trump needs to be indicted. TODAY. This is fucking ridiculous.

The mistress is terrified to testify. Plead the 5th bitch, if you fear admitting to criminal behavior.

Orange blob is a Pootie Poop asset who looks to have traded U.S. national security secrets to the highest bidders, mostly U.S. adversaries. And he isn’t even indicted yet.

I believe Trump set this up so the FBI would come after him and he could look like a valiant patriot victim to his Deplorables, who themselves are always getting arrested, accused and fired. They always play the victim of The Elites.

America first, huh?

He looks more surreal every time I see him.

The House select committee investigating the January 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol announced on Friday that the panel has officially sent a subpoena to former President Donald Trump as it paints him as the central figure in the multi-step plan to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.

The committee issued the subpoena to try to compel Trump to sit for a deposition under oath and to provide documents. The panel is ordering Trump turn over documents by November 4 and either appear in person or virtually for “one or more days of deposition testimony beginning on or about November 14.”

“As demonstrated in our hearings, we have assembled overwhelming evidence, including from dozens of your former appointees and staff, that you personally orchestrated and oversaw a multi-part effort to overturn the 2020 presidential election and to obstruct the peaceful transition of power,” Cheney and Democratic Rep. Bennie Thompson of Mississippi, the committee’s chairman, write in the subpoena letter.

Glamour!

Trump-appointed Judge Carl Nichols refuses to send Steve Bannon to prison for his crimes

They probably wrapped the subpoena around a KFC drumstick. Then Trump hurled it all against the wall.

Not sure what R523 is on about ...

Did you watch it, r526?

No. I know the Feds asked for six months and got four.

Does anyone ever watch YouTube videos posted in threads like this?

Serious question. I VASTLY prefer words I can scan to see if I'm even interested over a link I have to click, wait for it load and then be force fed someone's perspective--and frequently annoying voice.

Then don't click on them, r529.

I don't click on them. I don't get my news from randos on Youtube.

Glenn Kirschner doesn’t seem to be the type to be frequently posting on DL. It is surprising. He’s quite prevalent on cable media as a commentator.

I like he shows affection for his dog.

Then simply don't click on the Glenn Kirschner and Farron Cousins links I post.

Did the Merrick Garland press announcement happen?

[quote]Did the Merrick Garland press announcement happen?

Yes. He announced that the DOJ has charged 13 individuals who tried to "unlawfully exert influence in the United States" for the People's Republic of China.

Ladybugs got her stay. Pro-insurrection judge.

R550 It was Zzzzzzz as usual. These ancient fossils in the Democratic party in office are spinless to the point of ridiculous.

Spineless, but spinless works just as well since the Dems also suck at messaging.

[quote]These ancient fossils in the Democratic party in office are spinless to the point of ridiculous.

What does that have to do with Garland's announcement, r533?

So supposedly Conflicted Clarence's stay only lasts until GA submits their response, and then the matter will in all likelihood go to the full Supremes.

And DL court followers care to opine?

Hopefully my gentleman caller, Brett, will come through for me!

[quote][R550] It was Zzzzzzz as usual. These ancient fossils in the Democratic party in office are spinless to the point of ridiculous.

Again I'll ask, r533, what does the Democratic party have to do with the DOJ/Merrick?

^Sorry, r553

I told my old bud Brett, to stay away from that succabus, Miss Lindzebelle. The things he had to do to get on that court are unspeakable.

Thomas is a disgrace to the court. I know the Senate could impeach him, which is highly unlikely, but can Roberts do anything about him? Like take away his ability to decide appeals unilaterally?

[quote] Unlike a traditional campaign, which can only raise up to $47,100 in the general election from a given donor, super PACs like Save Our State or Safe Together can legally raise and spend unlimited amounts of money influencing political races. In this case, much of the funding for both groups has come from Ronald S. Lauder, a billionaire cosmetics heir, and a few other wealthy donors.

[quote] But New York law strictly prohibits any coordination between a candidate’s campaign committee and a so-called independent expenditure committee, or super PAC, that supports it.

[quote] Liam Madden, the Republican nominee in the open race for Vermont’s lone seat in the U.S. House, during a radio interview Thursday morning described in detail a self-funded scheme to inflate his campaign donations during the primary cycle in order to qualify for candidate debates.

[quote] Appearing on WVMT’s talk radio program Morning Drive, Madden claimed to have “drained” his wife’s business’s bank account and distributed roughly $25,000 amongst family members — including his toddler son, June — who then donated the money to his campaign. Madden said he is now recouping the money by collecting a salary from his campaign.

[quote] “He just appears to be ignorant of the fact that he's just confessed on an interview on air to breaking campaign finance laws,” said Ghosh, an attorney who previously worked for five years in the Federal Election Commission’s enforcement division.

[quote] Reached by phone Friday afternoon, Madden insisted that the scheme is legal. Asked who told him it is legal, he said, “It's just, I read the FEC rules.”

"Now 68, Zimmerman is an openly gay man who has experienced firsthand a changing social climate both in his neighborhood and nationally. And he's helping lead further progress, as the Democratic nominee in the first congressional race between two openly gay candidates."

"Santos, a 34-year-old first generation American, was born in Jackson Heights in Queens"

[...]

[quote] “I know straight Republicans who are much more progressive and accepting of the rights of the LGBTQ+ community than George Santos,” Zimmerman said.

[quote] Santos said he still supports the Florida law, which bars educators from discussing sexual or gender identity with children in classes up to third grade. The New York Republican said he believes discussion on these topics should be left to parents and that "we can keep all these other -isms stuff out of education in schools.”

[quote]His support of the law, he said, is not contradictory to his identity.

[quote]"I'm a gay married man,” Santos said. “I am openly gay, have never had an issue with my sexual identity in the past decade, and I can tell you and assure you, I will always be an advocate for LGBTQ folks."

“I’ve never been sexually assaulted in a drag show, but I have been in church. Twice.”

That whole speech is worth listening to r586. I was surprised she got a lot of applause and cheers since she’s in Tennessee.

Sorry that wasn’t the whole thing. It’s posted below.

Good, R595.

Don't give them the pleasure of deactivating. That's what they want so you're not around to call bullshit on their lies.

Be careful how you engage but please, I beg you, stay and engage as much as you are able.

Thanks, r596. I will do that. But geez, I know they’re probably experiencing mass deactivations and this is their way of stemming them.
