I may or may not have watched this one 10 or so times.

Were there any reports from inside the courtroom as to reactions of people in the room? Jurors, trump, lawyer, etc? I haven't seen anything about that. I was helping with a sick grandbaby so not online...I assume he made some sort of statement outside the courtroom? I hope he looked shocked.

Convicted felons can't vote in Florida. Oh, well.

I got home just in time. Stopped at store, if I'd known this was coming, I'd have picked up champagne. I have some Dom Perignon in the fridge I forgot about from my kid's college graduation a few weeks ago. Might be time to pop open that sucker! I was shopping for toilets online and got a notificat...

Just saying.

Right?

Who was he married to when he was carrying on with her?

I think it's good for the prosecution that they wanted the Pecker and the Cohen testimony. Their appearance was weeks apart, but what they said backs the other up, what-happened-wise. They confirm each other, from different sides of the same events and from the McDougal situation, it's clear that tu...

Too many toes?

Could be! Actually the feet look nice in this photo; on the beach shot, that's where she got Marge 3Toes nickname. Her feet looked awful.

A comment: I read a slightly amusing article that there was another "doctored records" case going on in the same courthouse. This one involved an administrator at Bellevue Hospital who falsified records regarding a security guard who apparently beat up a patient while releasing him. Admin ...

And today Avenatti tweeted that the DA's case is weak if it's taking 4 hours to do their closing argument.

Poor dood trying to stay relevant.

Yeah Rolodex , I grok your point, but having stood with my hand on my heart four* times yesterday while a high school bugler played taps at a small town's Memorial Day observance, I'm feeling tolerant about the use of the hand on the heart (is there a short term for this?) as an all-purpose gesture...

Chancery, I don't think the hand on heart is offensive in this scenario; I just think it's weird and if I was there in person, I'd probably be snickering inappropriately while nudging the person next to me. One of those situations where the more you're not supposed to laugh the harder is is to NOT l...

And more specifically, I have sung Amazing Grace in all kinds of settings outside of church and never had my hand on my heart. I don't even do that when I sing the National Anthem.

Disclaimer: Not responsible for what UMs do in a contemporary service. We have one but I've rarely been. I'm a traditionalist when it comes to Sunday worship (aka Episcopal Lite). And I guess a clarification on hand height: of course putting the elements in your mouth would put your hands above your...

Who's the moron with his hand on his chest?

I sing a lot of hymn in church, including Amazing Grace, and we never do that. We're Methodists, so we never even put our hands above our shoulders.

And something else occurred to me also. Knowing (what everyone in the English speaking world knows) that trump is going to lose his shit posting on truth social today, as he does every day he's in court, does that make the request more of an emergency? Does the fact that he'll be out there spewing ...

Yes. Appeal. Idk about escalating.

I sent that to my electeds, asking if they share the same sentiment with their favorite president and candidate. I'm sure Tuberville and Katie "Kitchen" Britt just love him all the more.

I heard on Wait Wait Don't Tell Me that roodles apparently had an Amazon wish list up for his birthday, and one of the items he had listed was stain resistant ceiling paint. Umm ok.

America’s premier pronatalists on having ‘tons of kids’ to save the world: ‘There are going to be countries of old people starving to death’ Elon Musk (father of 11) supports their cause. Thousands follow their ideology. Malcolm and Simone Collins are on a mission to make it easier for everyone to ...

Yeah the cheddar bay biscuits are pretty yummy. I grew up in Houston. They had RLs there but I swear I don't know how a chain seafood could be successful in a place where you have super fresh seafood available everywhere. I think I might have been once or twice (but people go buy those biscuits to s...

Hyperbolic much? Where will Bannon go to prison? I guess Navarro went in FL because that's where he lives? I was thinking his case was heard in DC, but I could be wrong on that. Bannon lives in NY? It would be great if he gets a couple of delays and then is in prison during the election. by all mean...

So I guess they settled with OANN but maybe not with Newsmax. Hope they nail them to the wall.

Excellent thread about a recent case in MS. "Qualified immunity" seems to protect a lot of bad acts committed by cops - if you or I did what they do, we'd get arrested. Too many cops kill or injure people with impunity - because they know they'll get off. It was not always that way - the K...

What happens if the red and blue accidentally mix?
