Why do I see “X” on MM right after Alex Jones is reinstated?
That’s just wrong.

Yes, we must prepare to run Joe against an unconvicted Trump. Those are possibly the cards we’re dealt.

Voters who can manage to vote in 2024, gotta do the job.

Boy! We got work to do.

NY AG Details Hundreds Of Threats By Trump Cultists

Newsweek reports:

A gag order should remain on Donald Trump because of the “hundreds of threatening, harassing, and antisemitic messages” a judge and his staff have received, the New York attorney general’s office said in a court filing.

The former president’s lawyers are currently appealing Judge Arthur Engoron’s gag order in the lawsuit against Trump brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James over the fraudulent evaluation of Trump properties.

While the fraud trial has continued at New York Supreme Court, court staff have received a huge number of threatening messages from Trump supporters.

Hold up a sec…Faux News (in the form of Peterless Douchy, no less!) has broadcast:

  1. An actual fact :open_mouth:
  2. An actual fact that isn’t spun to show Dark Brandon in a negative light
  3. An actual fact that undercuts one of the GOP’s many false narrative?

Well, slap my ass and call me “Nancy”…somebody’d better mark this historic day on the calendar!

Looks like Rudy is a no show for the trial. Per Kyle Cheney and Beryl Howell is the Judge.

Howell is taking the bench, no sign of Rudy…

Why is this guy still in the running? His verbiage is an unwelcomed flow of stupidity and ego.

Have they checked the men’s room, or the dark corners of a stairwell? Did his lawyer show up?

With Donald Trump promising to testify today in the New York civil fraud case against him, it was put up or shut up time – and he shut up. Trump on Sunday posted an elaborate rationale on Truth Social for why he wouldn’t testify after all, but it was never clear he was really going to take the risk of being cross-examined at this late stage of the trial.

Typical coward. Talks tough but can’t take the heat.
