If I awoke one morning and discovered overnight SCOTUS had installed Trump as President I’d probably think “Yeah, that figures…” and make some coffee.

Talk about shit for brains. This guy has oodles of that going for him. He was found in contempt right before the jury is to render its verdict.
Oppositional defiant disorder is alive and well with this guy.

There are plenty of crazy lawyers.
BTW, a couple of years ago, a court filing by Klayton came across my desk before I knew who he was. It was an application to appear as counsel pro hac vice and it was denied twice. (I’ve also dealt with filings by Orly Taitz.)

Finally, something good comes out of the mugshot
Green Day have sold t-shirts emblazoned with Donald Trump’s mug shot to raise relief funds for Maui fire victims.
The pop punk veterans recreated their 1997 Nimrod album cover but swapped out the pictures of Frederick Banting and Charles Best, who co-discovered insulin, with the former US president’s frowning face covered up with the title in a yellow circle.

Prosecutors are seeking 33 years of incarceration of Tarrio, the longest sentence recommendation to date in the Jan. 6 prosecutions.
As always, the white guys get away with a slap in the hand and and the black Hispanic guy that wasn’t even there gets 33 years. Not fair, the QAnon Shaman is already out and causing trouble again.

I see the latest press feeding frenzy is getting a head start.
(“Bombed” - har har, whatever)
The two men reportedly failed to establish a rapport as the Ukrainian leader’s demand to join Nato and “absurd analysis” of alliance dynamics left the US president “pissed off”.
“Even Zelenskiy’s most ardent sympathisers in the [Biden] administration agreed that he had bombed,” Franklin Foer, author of The Last Politician: Inside Joe Biden’s White House and the Struggle for America’s Future, writes of the meeting in September 2021.
“It suggested more difficult conversations to come.”
Foer also writes glowingly of Biden’s leadership of world support for Ukraine after the Russian invasion in February 2022, saying the US president proved “a man for his age”. But as the war in Ukraine drags on, with military and financial support for Kyiv a hot-button issue in Congress and in the Republican presidential primary, news of Foer’s portrayal of Biden and Zelenskiy’s floundering start may add to reported White House anxiety over the book.
The Guardian obtained a copy of The Last Politician, which will be published next week.

The FAFO poster boy. It turns out that you can’t treat a judge the way you say you can while bloviating at the bar.

Prison doesn’t provide alcoholic beverages. If Rudy wants a tipple in the clink, he’ll have to get his fermentation skills up. Pruno or buck is a long-standing fave!
There are plenty of different pruno recipes out there, but I decided to use the most popular one, which is attributed to a man named Jarvis Masters, who is currently on death row at San Quentin State Prison. Making prison wine is actually surprisingly easy, and all you really need is a one gallon plastic bag, ten oranges, eight ounces of fruit cocktail, some sugar cubes, six teaspoons of ketchup and a towel.
The first step is to peel your oranges and toss them in the bag along with the fruit cocktail. Then you’re going to want to mash up the oranges as much as you can and add 16 ounces of water to the bag as well. The next step is to seal the bag up nice and tight, put it in your sink and heat it with hot running water for 15 minutes. After that you’re going to want to wrap your bag up in a towel to keep it nice and warm to help with the fermentation process and then stash it somewhere safe for 48 hours.
Once the 48 hours are up you’ll need to check on your bag of mashed up fruit. Does it smell completely disgusting and look like it’s about to explode? That means it’s working! This is when you add the sugar and six teaspoons of ketchup to speed up the fermentation process even more (and to give the wine a little better taste). Jarvis’s recipe calls for 40 – 60 sugar cubes, but the more sugar you use the higher the alcohol content of your wine will be (up to a certain point) so I added 60 of them. Once the sugar cubes and ketchup have been added you need to seal the bag back up, place it under hot running water for 30 minutes, wrap it back up in a towel and let it do its thing.
Three short days after adding your sugar and ketchup you’ll have your very own prison wine! All you really need to do in that final 72 hour span is to open the bag once a day to let all the gasses out and then seal it back up and run hot water over it for 15 minutes before wrapping it back up again in the towel. Once the three days are up just separate the fruit mash from your pruno and enjoy!

It’s almost like the guy didn’t pause to think all his opponents oppo folks would be crawling through his business looking for dirt before he tossed his hat in the rink.
Or, maybe he thought he was a star and they’d just let him do it.

Nimrod:
Nimrod is a biblical figure mentioned in the Book of Genesis and Books of Chronicles. The son of Cush and therefore a great-grandson of Noah, Nimrod was described as a king in the land of Shinar. The Bible states that he was “a mighty hunter before the Lord [and] … began to be mighty in the earth”. Wikipedia
The “son of cush” bit is apropos, the rest, not so much.

I really hope this family wins their suit. This is another moron that should be behind bars and the only reason he isn’t is because of rightwing gaslighting, intimidation and finally nullification of the jury with regards to his murder charges. This whole case was intentionally fucked up from the beginning by the racist authorities in charge of handling this case.
