I think Cohen is the last witness for the prosecution; he's now being cross examined by the defense. I expect the DA to do a re-direct (who knows if there will be a re-cross). If the DA rests, do we know who - if anyone - the defense has on their witness list?

Sad trombone there, Roodles. He's lost his radio show; no idea what kind of income he has, but he might need to change to Chapter 7 if he doesn't have any businesses left to reorganize.

What Andrew Rice says he says looks like a direct violation of the gag order, which I'm fairly certain includes "causing to be said" type language. Maybe Merchan gets a nice note from Mr Rice.

Menendez jury selection finished and opening statements are this afternoon. Inner City Press guy Matthew is covering. Here's a funny tweet from his thread.

not a cult. I guess they all forgot their armbands. Some funny person labeled this the "Reservoir Lapdogs."

CNN reported that as well.

Didn't Merchan warn them about that?

I think they have started jury selection for the Sen Bob Menendez trial. I somehow don't think any other senators are going to show up for this trial. I hope they find that these surrogates have indeed been directed by trump (they'll have to find a way around his slippery instruction style). I hear...

As we all know, the prosecution is pulling out all of Cohen's dirty laundry to remove that weapon from the defense. Yeah, he lied. A lot. So why believe him now? Because, back then, he was lying out of loyalty to Trump. He'd likely done that for years, for a variety of situations we'll never know ab...

Joyce Vance includes a lot of info about dates in this case. We know that the judge threw out the May trial date, saying that other matters had to be ruled on. That schedule is listed in this article. https://joycevance.substack.com/p/mar-a-no-go?utm_source=substack&publication_id=607357&pos...

I drove to several places in Miami and around Florida several years ago. I didn't have a pass. Just applying for the pass would have cost me $20. They did indeed send me a bill. The bill was for $18 and some change. They tacked a surcharge on the bill since I didn't have a pass, but the grand total...

Hot take from a bit ago on MSNBC: Laurence O'Donnell, in the overflow room (I think): T appeared to be looking at his papers, and the top paper appeared to be a picture of the crowd at his rally. Trump is in major need of binkies and blankies. Tuberville and Vance were some morning blankies, and no...

Can he stop running for president and just go on tour? It's all he really wants - the crowds and adoration.
They would be easy to schedule around his trials.

Some reporter needs to ask him if his Chicago property is worthless.

Worm/Cricket - 2024! there could be a lot of cute campaign posters!

Yep. It's bad - I think prosecutors are going for 12 years.

I'd have to hunt it down (and it may even be upthread but I'm monitoring a dm with a business so can't go look rn) but I think the GA Senate subpoenaed Willis and asked for records, too. IIRc

Judge wants info re terrorism enhancement for Mr Bozell.

So, now the case is indefinitely postponed. As if it wasn't already obviously indefinitely postponed. Also, too - regarding Cannon's motivations, I have a hard time believing that if she were presiding over a classified documents case where the defendant is some regular Tom, Dick, or Harry that she...

Is RFK Jr. running as an independent? I know that, in the past, he has nominally identified as a Democrat. He will never be the choice of the Democratic party as a presidential candidate, so his only hope of appearing on ANY ballot, anywhere, is to run as an independent. If so, are there any polls ...

Lindell seems manic. Does he have a wife or someone who looks out for him?

Isn’t it their duty to object to unnecessary or inappropriate testimony? Sounds like the judge expected them to and would have agreed. Are they trying for a mistrial as in delay delay delay? Is that ethical? I'm sure they got an explosion from trump at the break. Did he say anything to reporters or...

What a shame. His buddy and partner in crime Joel Greenberg is in the same lock up. He was the guy who helped Matt get girls and partied with him, even while he was using his county position to create fake IDs.

Good for Phi Delta Theta. I don't know exactly what the other 2 kids were doing to be the ones named, but maybe KA will kick them out, too. The ones who were pictured with the shot up Emmett Till memorial all got kicked out of KA. It would be interesting to hear what each boy has to say individually...

Well, exactly. I don't love being in a room full of small kids, which is why I never taught Sunday School. I always said if I go to Hell after I die, I will be stuck for eternity in a classroom of kindergartners.
