Oh, that's gold.
Sure thing, friend.
Reading your syntax is making me ignorant, friend.
Aww, my man. You clearly have no core understanding of this case nor any of the others that were touched on today. Please read a bit. Please educate yourself.
Well, look at that! Today wasn't a complete shit show for the former president.
You're a towel!
That's you. That's what you sound like.
I'm good. Thanks, though!
No, an attack on a government building is terrorism, period. I struggle to compare an attack on a symbol of failed justice with an attack against elected officials inside the symbol of American democracy itself, though. It's like saying it's okay to smoke meth because those guys over there were smoking cigarettes.
I think he believed that the court should hear the arguments, no necessarily that he agreed with them, no? In other news, a majority of justices disagreed with Thomas. By your logic, that's proof of no fraud. Not a solid argument.
At least he sounds as sane and stable as ever. I'm guessing John Barron was unable to comment?
How's your black eye healing up?
I'm not concerned about whataboutisms, no. I won't engage in them or deviate from my point.
Trump, by reason of never releasing his tax information for voter scrutiny and vetting, by definition, cannot be the most scrutinized president in history. What's he hiding? Well, we'll find out soon enough.
I don't know that I believe that 4 in 10 Trump supporters had never heard about Q. My 87 year old grandmother despised Trump but twice voted for him anyway because she believed he would somehow ban abortions even knew who Q was.
I think they saw how easily a few hundred Trump cultists were able to break windows, smash doors and occupy the Capitol building. I think this terrified Congress on both sides of the aisle. I think they're scared.
Notice how Republican leaders aren't calling for the removal of any troops. Notice how Republican leaders are still sucking on the Trump teet despite the fact he's got less than 50% of the minority party's base of support. What he does have, however, is the support of the minority's most militant, obsessed and focused supporters, even if it's a mere fraction.
McConnell impeachment vote and subsequent floor speech should tell you everything you need to know.
It's sort of like battered wife syndrome. Your husband beats the shit of you every night when he gets home from work and all you do is tell your friends that you love him and hope that he changes because you've never known anything else.
Deep down, the Trump cultists know that he's a moron. They know he's corrupt. They know he and Epstein were more than just party buddies back in the 90s. They know these things but love and support him anyway because they're no different than a battered wife. Their entire identity is now tied up into the MAGA myth. The movement gives them purpose, despite the fact they're under constant abuse. Put on your make-up and cover those black eyes. Make every excuse in the world. We know that you didn't fall down. We know that he pushed you.
You can't fix that. You can't force someone to acknowledge the truth and walk away. That's something that they have to do on their own.
There was never much hope. Just a fool's hope.
Every day, Trump's tax, bank and insurance fraud schemes comes closer to the surface. With the recent subpoenas and the hiring of former federal prosecutors that specialized in mob cases, the walls around the former President are crumbling. Remember, they didn't get Capote for the murders, extortion, bribery, bootlegging or anything he blatantly committed. No, they got him on his taxes.
I tell ya, at the end of the day, Lindell will probably deeply regret going to bat for Trump as often as he did. The funny thing about these lawsuits is that Dominion has opened the door for Lindell to show whatever "proof" he's claimed to have found before a judge in a case that won't get dismissed before anyone even speaks. Dominion wouldn't sue, particularly for this insane amount of damages, if they knew there was fraud.
What Dominion wants isn't $1.4B. They want Lindell to say he was wrong, he lied for his own gain and that he's sorry for his actions following the election.
Bad day for Trump at the court.
The case the high court ruled in involves a grand jury subpoena for more than eight years of Trump’s personal and corporate tax records. Vance has disclosed little about what prompted him to request the records. In one court filing last year, however, prosecutors said they were justified in demanding the records because of public reports of “possibly extensive and protracted criminal conduct at the Trump Organization.”
In the end, his finances are what's going to ruin Trump and his legacy. He probably could have gotten away with the fraud schemes had he remained a private citizen. He brought the attention onto himself.
In case you forgot, Trump has many, many ongoing investigations surrounding him, some criminal. The NY AG, not to be confused with the Manhattan DA, sounded off on her probe today.
