Bless you, Bernie. Yes, I voted for him in the 2016 primary.

I think it is delusional for these judges to not include themselves in the various gag orders. I assume there are constitutional and policy considerations at play. Not that judges believe they are immune, but feel constrained when they are the subject of a litigant's ire. Thanks, Bob. :bighug: I've...

Paraphrased from an in interview some years ago:

Reporter: But what about your legacy?

Barr: What do I care? I'll be dead.

I would be shocked.

Remember the Occupy movement? Even more recent. I will never forget the video of police slowlly walking along a line of peaceful protesters sitting perfectly still on a low stone wall--and casually spraying pepper spray in their faces. I think that's when I knew for sure that the ideals I had been b...

I wonder that too. I think it is delusional for these judges to not include themselves in the various gag orders. That might have been fine in sane times, but MAGA has burned that bridge. I want to know the number of MAGA flying monkeys out there who rise to fuckhead's bait; the ones that make the t...

Life in the autocracy.

The people in power don't give a shit about anything but violence and fear to control the masses. Truth or Constitution not a consideration.

How is Kavanaugh reacting? I hate to say it, but he's done the right thing a time or two. The worst. Started out by talking about how they should send the case back to Chutkin to rule on which charge were private, etc. He also claimed that it was established* fact that Ford's decision to pardon Nix...

Jackson doggedly brought it up each time she spoke.

Right???

Two days in a row!

Ahhhhh.... Just finished reading the Gag Order hearing. It lived up to all expectation. Not only did Blanche make a lot of weak arguments, he made what I think of as the fatal mistake of not actually answering the Judge's questions. "Where's the post your client is responding to?" was a lo...

:yeahthat: I'm guessing they decided they didn't want the material in editable pdfs? That pdf itself just contained a sequence of page images in one document, so didn't support text search or selection to copy/paste an excerpt as text. But you could quickly scroll through large chunks to get to a b...

He's taken over Alex Jones's playbook.

Not much more to be said other than that.

Though I'm wondering if he's started to sell survival gear yet.

:yeahthat: I'm guessing they decided they didn't want the material in editable pdfs? Luckily I had opened up the pdf shortly after it was posted, so I was able to read it this AM with ease. Take-aways-- I read through Merchan's jury instructions (don't judge me) and they were delightfully clear. I k...

Oh, Bob....

Thanks for that!

One of the talking heads on CNN has said that New York law does not allow Merchan to put Trump in jail for any length of time unless he actually does something inside the courtroom in front of the judge. So, this is just another waste of time where Trump will go right outside the courtroom today an...

Lordy, I hope we get the transcript of this!

Blanche is humiliating himself. Fun!

My fave among many (so far) is that since the Pros didn't mention two other violations by fuckhead, that means they accept them, and the gag order is waived.

So how the heck does Blanche plan to make the case that this was allll Cohen's plan and he had nothing to do with it (and never had sex with McDougal or Clifford). How? Wouldn't fuckhead have to testify to do this? Of course, fuckhead says he will testify, so perhaps that the The Plan (fuckhead's ow...

From Michael Cohen's charging document. A refresher. Section entitled "Campaign Finance Violation." - Using Spoiler Text because it's five pages, with a few paras cut for focus. Screenshot 2024-04-22 at 8.12.22 PM.jpg Screenshot 2024-04-22 at 8.13.18 PM.jpg Screenshot 2024-04-22 at 8.13.40...
