Meet Some Of Trump’s Guilty Friends - TPM – Talking Points Memo

Let’s not forget the 7 Inspector Generals he fired within a 5-6 week period and installing a new Secretary of Defense after the election.

Oh. And all the ‘acting’ nominees he put up without even nominating him.

And the guy they couldn’t legally install and couldn’t legally put him as an acting whatever, so they put him in the position and his title was ‘person performing the duties of the acting _____.’

Of course she knew. Wives of serial philanderers always know. But so what? The crime was using campaign funds and covering his tracks to avoid taxes. To paraphrase a certain ascetic, “Guilty or guilty not. There is no why.”

The mental picture I get is feeding the lot of them to the Sarlacc in Star Wars. That would be acceptable.

The lawyers say a “melania defense” is irrelevant since it doesn’t matter what the reason for the crimes are- you committed crimes, period.

I don’t know. I think I’d feel OK leaving them in the company of my pet Komodo Dragon. His name is Sully. He likes to nibble and lick on your calves. I think he and Roger Stone would really hit it off.

That excuse doesn’t work on me, but it probably does on his dumbass supporters, some of whom have had a few extramarital affairs themselves.

White is the default option – so you never here that phrase ‘a white bank robber’ when the robber is white but you always here ’ a black bank robber’ when the robber is black. This affects which group the public thinks commits the most crimes.

Such is the fate of trophy wives. If she didn’t value the material goods she can have she might have dumped him a long time ago.

Major accomplishment in only four years! In five and a half Nixon isn’t even close to half that.

And here… back in the day… I though Nixon was the worst. He’s dead and I’d still pee on his grave. My dog died the same day Nixon did. I figured alla those flags at half staff were for my dog.

Tim Parlatore is the latest addition to this list, based off someone’s decision to reveal Parlatore’s testimony to the stolen documents grand jury in December. As ABC reported, Beryl Howell ordered him to testify after he belatedly revealed that investigators he hired had found four documents with classification marks in a box brought back to Mar-a-Lago after the August 2022 search (he emphasizes that he did so without a subpoena, but this was an effort to stave off a finding of contempt).

You can’t mention Langston Hughes in Florida’s AP curriculum since he was Black and a gay man. In Moms for liberty parlance, a twofer.
