TAPPER: In addition to this news that you’re breaking about Jared Kushner sitting for testimony being asked questions by prosecutors looking into his father-in-law trying to steal the election from the winner of President Joe Biden, we also know that Ivanka Trump cooperated with the January 6 committee. And I’m wondering, how is the relationship between Donald Trump who surrounds himself with people who tell him that he won the election which he did not, and these two individuals, his daughter, and his son in law.
HABERMAN: Jake, my understanding for multiple people when the testimony was aired showing both Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump being interviewed by the House Select Committee during those live hearings was the Trump was very upset, particularly that Ivanka Trump. He was not happy about these video clips showing her suggesting that she had believed what Bill Barr was saying and Bill Barr, the former attorney general, of course, said that there wasn’t a widespread fraud and told Trump that and he testified to all of that. My understanding is things have improved them, but it definitely brought a strain to the relationship.

TruMP’s FamilY seeMs to be turning On truMP. WhY? BraCE yourselves…
Picture this: The inner Workings of Trump’s inner Circle and family have been Infiltrated by a vast left-wing Conspiracy that merges various Conspiracies into one Massive, mind-boggling Plot. The Deep State, armed with Evidence from their secret Moon Base, has something on each Member of Trump’s Entourage. They are using a combination of Mind control Techniques and alien Lizard overlords to Manipulate their Actions.
But it doesn’t stop there! The Plot thickens with the Involvement of the Kennedys, who have secretly Harnessed space Lasers to Control the Minds of those close to Trump. They Seek to bring down his Presidency and protect their own Hidden Agenda.
Under the Influence of this complex Web of manipulation, Ivanka and Jared find themselves Torn between Loyalty to Trump and the Sinister powers that Control them. Is it Mind control, Blackmail, or the Secret Machinations of interdimensional Beings? The truth remains Elusive, buried beneath Layers of Intrigue and Smoke screens.
It’s OccaM’s razor people!

Donald Trump is 77 years old. If, I pray, his comeuppance is on the horizon, it will arrive 77 years too late. May it be so.

Listening to the Republican Party’s attempt to distract us from the real news, could make one dizzy, which it is a good thing that Jack Smith has his ducks in order and certain members of the party have major legal problems coming their way.

Charlie Kirk Accuses Michelle Obama Of ‘Stealing A White Person’s Slot’ At College | Crooks and Liars
“If we would have said that Joy Reid and Michelle Obama and Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) and Katanji Brown Jackson were affirmative action picks, we would have been called a racist,” Kirk said Thursday. “But now they’re coming out, and they’re saying it for us. They’re coming out, and they’re saying, I’m only here because of Affirmative Action.”
“Yeah, we know you do not have the brain processing power to otherwise be taken really seriously,” he continued. “You had to go steal a white person’s slot to go be taken somewhat seriously. We know, we know it’s very obvious to us that you were not smart enough to be able to get in on your own.”
Kirk called Reid, an MSNBC host, “the dumbest narcissist on television.” And he suggested that some airplane pilots might not be qualified because of Affirmative Action

The DOJ is doing the Lord’s work in going after this bill passed in Mississippi:
“If we’re going to make an additional court in the City of Jackson, do we not want our best and brightest sitting in judgment, whether that may come from Holmes County or Madison County or wherever they may be? Why would we limit the talent pool to here?” Rep. Trey Lamar, the bill’s sponsor and a white Republican who lives 170 miles north of Jackson in Senatobia, Miss., said on the House floor in February.
The complaint cites those remarks and others by Lamar, describing them as “racially tinged statements” that “(treat) Hinds County and Jackson as if they are incapable of effective self-governance.”
“After Rep. Lamar stated that the bill’s purpose is to make the City of Jackson safer, bill opponents replied that Black representatives of Jackson, rather than White statewide officials, should oversee their city,” the complaint recounts. “Representative Lamar responded that ‘the city of Jackson is the capital city of the State of Mississippi, whether you are from Southaven or Gulfport. It is our capital city. It does not belong solely to the citizens of Jackson, OK?

I can feel the ground moving on Jack Smith’s mission.
I think the Cannon courtroom is fading into the background and the bomb in Jack’s possession is getting bigger and more lethal than we may expect. Will it drop before Fani Willis makes her move in GA?

This guy…He’ll say things like this…and I applaud…then I remind myself he’s a lifelong Republican. Oy.
Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. “I encourage anyone with such evidence to turn it over and it will be fully investigated. But if you don’t have the evidence, don’t come into Georgia and make far-fetched and hyperbolic claims. It’s long past time to put up or shut up.”

I get the impression that Raffensperger is really pissed that DFG thought he could just cajole him into breaking the law; he’s personally offended.
