Apparently all too believable for some people.

I entered into the mind of the lady ahead of me in the grocery line, clawing away at the bottom of her purse to count out exact change for her bill. Penny by penny.
The empty, soulless depravity I encountered still haunts me.

Fixing the house would also go a long way towards fixing the electoral college

As per yesterdays New York Times article the NYPD overtime budget has become bloated. It’s as if it’s built in to the system so the officers can pay for their pleasure boat or kid’s college.
As the speaker of the city council astutely pointed out, imagine if teachers had the same gumption to ask for a similar amount of overtime to bring students up to grade level or for college prep.

Think we’re at the ‘Eh, f^ck it [shrug]’ phase in TMF’s decline in popularity and relevance.

The Portland Police Department has an excellent domestic terrorist training center. Terrorists report it’s very helpful.

I still think that being butthurt is the favorite state of the RW. As such an indicted Trump will likely win the primary.

Still some hours left, but indictment certainly looking unlikely today. (I will be delighted to be proven wrong!). Maybe later in the week? My best guess is there is an indictment en route, but no one (outside the folks processing it, none of whom are talking) really knows when beyond “soon”. Why Trump decided to assign it to today is a mystery.

Since most of the RW outrage machine is based in russia, not exactly surprising given the cutoff of direct travel that none of them can make it for in-person rallies and riots.

I think he got a heads-up with this one specifically. Maybe it got bumped, maybe it’ll be later.
But this was the first time he had assigned a specific day, so I’m going with it actually having some basis in what he was being told.
Not like you exactly pack up an ex-president and move without prior planning, so his USSS detail would, at a minimum, have a lead-time warning.

He feels it’s coming, so he want to be ahead of it.
It’s that simple.
Look at how it worked. He got all the oxygen, and his toadies are circling the wagons…
While I want to see his indictment, the hush money indictment is the least consequential, so if it falls out of the news for a week, and Trump seems like he cried wolf, I’m good with it.

I saw a photo of her on the on-line LA Times today. The caption said that she felt emancipated.
Pretty sure you’re right. But that has as much to do with cowardly primary candidates as anything. As individuals-- they fear what Trump can do to them. They are either weak-willed or perhaps compromised. And he’ll bludgeon any of them publicly.
The GOP’s response to Trump’s illegal hush money payoff to a porn star:
Except for DeSatan who’s playing it for all it’s got:
He can’t say “porn star hush money payments” often enough.
Could Bragg had done a (seemingly successful) leak check within his organization? Maybe playing Trump to incriminate himself again?
I mean, if I was going after Trump, that’s how I’d play it.

The irony is in the primary they can’t do the “Safety in Numbers” thing because the only way someone other than Trump wins is if the “Anti Trump” is unified

And here we go:
Bloomberg News reports:
A bomb threat was called in just as a judge in lower Manhattan was about to start a hearing over a $250 million lawsuit by New York Attorney General Letitia James against Donald Trump.
Tuesday’s 911 call was investigated, the courthouse at 60 Centre Street temporarily closed and searched, and the threat deemed unfounded, state court spokesman Lucian Chalfen said.
The building, featured in the opening footage of Law and Order, is where state civil cases are heard. James sued Trump, his company and three of his children in September for allegedly inflating the value of his real estate company’s assets.
