Former President Trump on Thursday was ordered to testify under oath in New York state’s civil investigation into his business practices.
The Trumps can appeal the decision.
So they can continue to drag this out. Ask for attorneys here, how long?
Hahahahahahaha!
Wait, sorry. Give me a second…
Hahahahahahaha!
Serious question:
Has he ever won at anything?
Little Princess Popsy has to testify!!!
Nyuck…Nyuck…Nyuck.
When you get into that conference room, Donnie Boy, and you’re trying to decide how to respond to the NY attorneys’ questions, remember this:
If you’re innocent, why are you taking the Fifth Amendment? The mob takes the Fifth.
“Former President Trump on Thursday was ordered to testify under oath in New York state’s civil investigation into his business practices.”
Wow, somebody finally found a way to make Trump finally STFU.
(Even if it is only while sitting for the deposition.)
This week just keeps getting better and better!
And it ain’t even Friday yet!!
It looks as if the various investigations are starting to squeeze in tighter on Trump and his crew. It will be very interesting to see what happens as the pressure increases on him and his family of co-conspirators. Sooner or later, it is reasonable to expect that someone is finally going to break, maybe not The Donald, but someone close to him who wants to do some personal damage limitation.
One can hope.
So does the inevitable appeal go straight to SCOTUS and how quickly does it get denied?
Maybe he’ll live TRUTH (what will it be called since it’s not really Tweeting? truthing, posting, messaging?) his own testimony on his amazing new social media platform.
I’m no expert on New York appellate procedure, but this is an interlocutory discovery order. As such, it should not be appealable. Trump and his hellspawn can try to take it up by mandamus, but that ain’t gonna fly because there’s no irreparable harm. The appellate courts would seem highly unlikely to even grant a temporary stay.
Shall we start a pool to guess how many times Trump will take the 5th?
Hey, if he finally goes live, this is gonna be what we’re all waiting for.
Fuck twitter for cutting him off.
He’d have confessed the entire details of the scheme within days after Freedom Day had we just given him the chance to talk, without censors keeping him from full confessions.
