Today will be interesting as we hear Trump’s lawyers’ arguments (I expect everything to be thrown at the wall/judge so I hope she’s appropriated prepared to be in the splash zone) and responses in front of the judge. Here is another link to a recent overview.
While I hope we can push forward for resolution in an efficient manner, I expect much delay. While we cannot politicize such investigations, it would be far worse for this country to allow acts to go unchallenged because there is no accepted precedent for this situation. Keep the pressure on to find the truth, and let’s hope we can cut through any obfuscation by Republicans.
Sure, but did he have the expertise to do it without one or more co-conspirators? (ed.)
At least in the common understanding, Donnie’s computer literacy was so 1968.
Setting aside the fact that FatAss has hired totally incompetent legal help, I can also well imagine that he threw a major toddler temper tantrum until they put crap like that in the filing. Easier to make him happy even when you look like an ass doing so.

My read… To the Clown Car: You broke it, you own it.
It’s Republicans who are cock-a-hoop over applying the death penalty in any and all circumstances (see: Greg Abbott).
There’s nothing in the Constitution that prevents a convicted felon from running for president – albeit it’s a bit difficult to campaign from a prison cell.
The ultimate sanction would render the whole question of a future campaign moot.
I’m pretty sure that the three-letter agencies assume all documents found at MAL are compromised beyond salvage and they are now focused on worst case scenarios in all cases and making contingency plans.
A traitor in the White House, unrestrained for years, and the ultimate betrayal. I know he’ll end up getting off with a relative slap on the wrist and it infuriates me beyond all comprehension.
There’s a high probability that he’s making sure his retainer check has cleared the bank before lifting a finger.
Also might have made some conditions for agreeing to take him on, e.g. “you keep your mouth shut and sit on your fat little fingers for the next week or I won’t sign”…
