For anyone interested, NM courts created a "high profile cases" page, which has docket items for cases stemming from the Rust shooting (the only "high profile" cases so far): https://nmcourts.gov/news/high-profile-cases/ There are now multiple motions to dismiss from Team Baldwin...

Thanks, that's helpful. I'd like to read the brief, and that snippet probably supplies enough information to identify the case and download the pdf, but I think I'll wait and see if it surfaces. ...

On the MeidasTouch video above, guest Karen Agnifilo said she could almost guarantee that prosecution would not put Cohen on on a Friday, leaving the whole weekend for folks to overanalyze everything he said.

Michael Popok is an insufferable windbag. He really does put bagpipes to shame. As one who had to listen to bagpipes at 2AM when I was reenacting, that's a tall order. Reminds me of the time a rude neighbor came banging on my door at 3AM. 3AM! Who does that? It was just lucky for him I was still up...

NECHELES: “Even though you had agreed that you would not discuss this supposed story and you had received a lot of money for that agreement, you then decided that you wanted to publicly say that you had sex with Donald Trump.” DANIELS: “No, nobody would ever want to publicly say that”. I wanted to ...

Washington Post now in on the pdf transcript act as well.

Shad beats the NYT to a May 7 pdf. (Though NYT pdf conversion seems a bit more elegant, omitting Next/Prev from the court's online pages).

Wednesdays are no trial days. Cross begins tomorrow. Cross examination of Daniels did start on Tuesday; it will resume Thursday. FWIW (maybe not much) Jonathan Alter for New York Times opined that in some ways she did better against the harsh questions than on direct: Stormy Daniels Stood Up Well t...

Lisa Rubin @lawofruby ... I also found that a very eloquent thread from Lisa Rubin, highglighting the sometimes overlooked metoo aspect of Daniels' encounter that resonates beyond the salacious details. TPM's Kovensky also noted this and here's another comment in this vein from NYT's Jessica Bennet...

I just learned the New York Times is publishing the trial transcripts in pdf form. This looks to obviate the need to rely on the yeoman services of Shad Riley (85 followers including me) to convert them. Root page for the transcripts: https://www.nytimes.com/article/trump-hush-money-trial-transcript...

Interesting observation from TPM's Josh Kovensky: Here’s a problem with Daniels’ testimony, as I see it at the current moment: it’s at least somewhat obvious that she is taking joy in belittling Trump. This doesn’t necessarily go to the veracity of what she’s saying. It could all be true, she could ...

Please help me out here. If most of those checks were written on Trump's personal account , how are they business records? That may be a defense to many/most of the criminal counts. I thought the claim was that every one is a payment of an invoice to the Trump org for "legal services" and...

Shad Riley continues to deliver: Trump Transcripts (Searchable PDF): 5/2/24 Thanks! I see he fixed the glitch that caused every even page to contain only the footer. Yeah he took my suggestion about that on Twitter! (Print odd pages only to Save As PDF printer) I don't know the guy from Adam.
