Again, that’s not what we’re saying (or at least me). I’ve been sick of him since 2016. Prison might fix it.

Former President Donald Trump’s election interference trial in Fulton County, Georgia, will be broadcast live on the court’s YouTube channel, Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee said Thursday, the latest factor that could make the case a public spectacle unlike any of Trump’s three other criminal cases.

Well, priosn might have fixed it for me if The Bastille or Dry Tortuga were still options. Now I'm not so sure.

Wouldn't Alcatraz have a great view of San Francisco for him to look at everyday and think "Why, that Nancy Pelosi must sure be having fun today!"?

When I toured Alcatraz, I kept thinking that it would be torture to be incarcerated there. Great view of San Francisco, where all the bars and vice are. So close.

But what's a TwiX-enabled cell phone? The phone is sticky? It runs on candy?

I googed a little, no love.

I thought the agreement was Xitter is the site, an Xcrement (plural: Xcrement) was the individual entry. "I see TRump dropped another load of Xcrement in the Xitter last night."

Gregg mentioned the Bastille or the Dry Tortugas (infamous former prisons) as possible places for T****'s incarceration.

You forgot the Hanoi Hilton.

Justice Department special counsel Jack Smith warned Tuesday that former President Donald Trump’s “daily” statements risk tainting a jury pool in Washington in the criminal case charging him with scheming to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.

Trump’s provocative comments about both Smith’s team and U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan — who is presiding over the case — have been a central issue since the indictment was filed last month. Prosecutors have repeatedly signaled their concerns about the impact of Trump’s social media posts and Chutkan explicitly warned Trump against inflammatory remarks that could intimidate witnesses or contaminate potential jurors.

The posts continued Tuesday both before and after the latest concern flared, with Trump earlier in the day circulating a New York Post story about Chutkan on his Truth Social platform and openly mocking the idea that she could be fair in his case. Later in the evening, he issued another post in which he attacked Smith as a “deranged” prosecutor with “unchecked and insane aggression.”

The latest complaint from the Justice Department underscores the extent to which Trump’s social media attacks are testing the patience of prosecutors and also risk exposing him to sanctions from the judge, who last week set a trial date of March 4, 2024 in an effort to keep the case moving. Trump has faced warnings in other cases, too, with a condition of his release in a separate prosecution in Atlanta being that he refrain from intimidating co-defendants, witnesses or victims in the case.
