From the clip above, how cool is this flag:

Does anybody have a problem with that? Works for me. Might even be a slogan for the Mighty 699th. Gregg, should I get one of those flags for Root Beer and Biscuit?

Yeah, neon approved! NADT

Donald Trump Writes First Facebook Post Since Jan. 6 Capitol Attack

Former President Donald Trump posted to Facebook and to YouTube on Friday for the first time since Jan. 6, 2021, and just hours before declaring that he expected to be arrested next week on charges stemming from a Manhattan district attorney investigation into his 2016 campaign.

His message was brief: “I’M BACK!”

It came with a short video taken from CNN the night he was elected president more than six years ago.

“Sorry to keep you waiting,” Trump says in the clip. “Complicated business. Complicated.”

What if...in The Twilight Zone we are now living in, this is all a nightmare. Where Trump put out he would be indicted, but had insider knowledge that he wasn't going to be indicted. His Truth Social post was just a way of setting us all up for -now get this -his claim later that Bragg backed down.

Did I just dig my own rabbit hole? This is all making me more unstable than I was previously.

Nah

He knows nothing but his guilt and fear

He is trying to bully and threaten

[Ben-Prime]

It's the parable of Nasruddin and the Sultan's Horse. "A lot can happen in a year. Maybe the Sultan will die or be deposed and his successor will decide to pardon me. Maybe the Sultan will have a change of heart. And if none of this happens, maybe I can teach that damned horse to fly."

If Trump's fear-based bravado and bullying cause enough delays to moot the prosecution later, or cause any prosector to back down, he can claim a win.

Our Father who Art of the Deal,

Give us this day a lot of dough, and forgive us for cooking the books to hide our hush money payments to porn stars, as well as all the other stuff we totally didn’t do even if there is lots of evidence and some of it on video. Deep Fake News.

Well done Gupwalla.

Trump wants to be handcuffed for court appearance in Stormy Daniels case, sources say
People close to former president said to be unsure whether he is serious about wanting to do a perp walk

Donald Trump has told advisers that he wants to be handcuffed when he makes an appearance in court, if he is indicted by a Manhattan grand jury for his role in paying hush money to adult film star Stormy Daniels, multiple sources close to the former president have said.

The former president has reasoned that since he would need to go to the courthouse and surrender himself to authorities for fingerprinting and a mug shot anyway, the sources said, he might as well turn everything into a “spectacle”.

Trump’s increasing insistence that he wants to be handcuffed behind his back for a perp walk appears to come from various motivations, including that he wants to project defiance in the face of what he sees as an unfair prosecution and that it would galvanize his base for his 2024 presidential campaign.

But above all, people close to Trump said, he was deeply anxious that any special arrangements – like making his first court appearance by video link or skulking into the courthouse – would make him look weak or like a loser.

The recent discussions that Trump has had about his surrender with close advisers at Mar-a-Lago and elsewhere opens a window on to the former president’s unique fears and anxieties as the grand jury, which next convenes on Wednesday, appears on course to return an indictment.

Trump’s legal team in the hush money case has recoiled at the idea of him going in person and recommended that Trump allow them to quietly turn himself in next week and schedule a remote appearance, even citing guidance from his Secret Service detail about potential security concerns.

But Trump has rejected that approach and told various allies over the weekend that he didn’t care if someone shot him – he would become “a martyr”. He later added that if he got shot, he would probably win the presidency in 2024, the sources said.

Blah, blah Perpetual victimhood. It's the the classic Roger Stone defense. "Donald Trump Did Nothing Wrong!"

I hear Mark David Chapman is available.

Remanded into custody yet? No?

You kids keep on believing. I WANT to be proven wrong.

Tiny handcuffs!

[cjroberts]

There are several open legal questions:

Can Trump be tried as an adult?

Must Melania make conjugal visits?

Can Sean Hannity?

Are Big Macs contraband or a Constitutional right?

Will Trump's cellmate have standing to make an 8th Amendment claim?

If the jail or prison serves Trump Steaks to Trump, will Trump have standing to make an 8th Amendment claim?

Sounds like he wants to relive old memories with Stormy.
