I watched that segment in stunned disbelief- how can anyone in the media defend FOX anymore?

Picture it from the MAGA perspective. “The law” has been weaponized by Biden to attack Trump and keep him from getting elected. So of course he doesn’t want anyone who thinks the law should be applied against him. It’s obvious!

So it has warmed my heart this week to hear multiple prospective jurors in the Trump hush-money case assert that no one is above the law. As a statement of fact, that is unassailable. But it’s more important as a civic virtue. It states an expectation and an aspiration for who we are and what we want to be.
emphasis mine
While obvious to the average citizen, this is something the Supreme Court appears to need months to mull over.

Nope. Jesse only all but doxed her, but even that is not actually illegal as it’s not a specific and direct threat all by itself.

Hopefully Trump isn’t doing this naked.

NYT liveblog:
Trump appears to have fallen asleep in court again. It happened several times just now. His eyes were closed for extended periods and his head dropped down twice.

WaPo: “A top leader of the national conservative group Turning Point Action, which has amplified false claims of election fraud by former president Donald Trump and others, resigned Thursday after being accused of forging voter signatures on official paperwork so that he could run for reelection in the Arizona House.”
As usual, every accusation is a confession.

Apparently, it’s freezing in the court room this morning so it’s not due to the temp.

It would be true to form, or if not Trump, key Senate and/or House Republicans. I think that Bibi knows that Trump is a useless shit-troller to be used only when it’s convenient to Bibi.

I take some exception to the section saying there is hope for the legal system when some jurors from Manhattan NY said, “No one is Above the Law”. When I hear the same from the Southern States I will relax a bit.

I hear ya, but he already has his cult in the bag. He could confess today and they would immediately pivot to, “See? He came clean.” You would think someone would tell him that he needs to appeal to some non-magas.
OTOH, he’s a narcissistic psychopath, so there’s that.

… assert that no one is above the law.
Yes, that is the ideal, yes that is what most people want to see prevail.
But we have to recognize - and factor into all strategy - that, fundamentally , Trump does NOT accept this concept. He is a psychopathic, insecure, wannabe elitist … an insecure wannabe because his blue-blood credentials are fraudlent - he has no legacy of “character” absolutely no inner “courage”
Yet he is obsessively convinced that he is innately superior to others & has always operated as though his wants / desires supercede those of others - simply because he is so special spoiled brat.

Doesn’t matter to his cultists since they think he is the law.

Third juror to answer questionnaire. This could get her bumped.
In response to the standard question about whether she’s a crime victim, she discloses that she’s been sexually assaulted and had her cell phone stolen.
