A rational person doesn't need De Santis to tell them FOX can't be trusted. There are 787 million reasons why no one should believe what they see on Fox.

The Judge should bring her in and have her testify under oath if she was directed by trump. Of course she will lie but sometimes putting people under oath kick starts their honesty....sometimes.

In order for punishment to act as a deterrent, it must be administered swiftly, otherwise the criminal will not view his punishment as linked to the offense.

Putin's only chance of winning in Ukraine is a trump re-election, which he knows won't happen if Preghozin ever spills the beans about Russian collusion with the trump campaign.
Dear trumpers: I'm tired of you shit stains co-opting the American flag to promote your racist ideology and hateful imagery. Let it be known, from this point forward, on this day, I'm reclaiming it!

Right. I don't remember is effective in a criminal trial because the standard is beyond a reasonable doubt. Here, where the standard is "more likely than not", her failure to recall makes it more likely than not she did participate in the insurrection.

This is where it gets interesting. I hope the creditor lawyers are filing multiple objections and firing off discovery requests-I'm sure they were anticipating this from the day the judgment was entered.
Remember how outraged people got when Mitt Romney put his dog in a carrier and strapped it to the hood of his car? That was your father's Republican Party. Kristi Gnomes executing a puppy is today's trump Republican Party.
@richsignorelli
Unprecedented indictments are about to be unleashed against members of a political party, so I expect extraordinary problems. These Republicans won't go easy. Prepare to go to the mattresses.
@steve_vladeck
@emptywheel
Probably the right move. There is a chance Thomas may have to recuse based on what is in the public record or something yet undisclosed. If that happens and the Supremes split 4 to 4, there won’t be a standing appellate decision to fall back on.

It is the air of invincibility trump supports believe surround them-stems from not getting his tax returns to the failure to secure indictments.
1/2: In 2020, Trump called Democrats "fascists" in '20 while surrounded by military officials.
No one remembers it bc Dems didn't feel threatened by his false claim.
Today, MAGA Republicans are angry at President Biden for a similar remark. Because they know it's true.

@BEVHOWARD40
I think the Dems should start proceedings tomorrow with a motion to exclude these senators from participating in these proceedings. Even if they lose, debate it and let the American people witness the impropriety of their actions.

This is not like watching a lion attack a wounded zebra and realize your intervention might disrupt the natural order of things. There are 10 million people displaced from their homes. We need to draw a big red line and let Russia know when enough is enough.

@bjsbook
I agree. But, I fear that these lawsuits will include false affidavits claiming irregularities that don't exist, tying up legitimate Dem wins. The biggest unprosecuted criminals were the MAGAs who signed false affidavits in connection with election challenges.
@thebeach345
Regardless of the amount, his supporters will continue to say he raised 50 million. If trump said the moon was made of cheese, his supporters would invest in crackers.

Thomas' old law clerk, attorney Eastman, planned a coup in search of a legal theory per a Federal Judge in California. Who do you think was feeding Eastman that theory?
Hey
@KASHPatel
why not submit an affidavit to Judge Dearie affirming under oath the existence of a standing order declassifying material removed from the Oval Office? Time to step up!
@lindyli
@MarkoSilberhand
He has the goods on Ginny. I have no doubt she actively worked with her husband to feed Eastman coup plans as viable legal options. He won’t flip until he is convicted and his appeals dry up.
John Ratcliffe, the rabid trump supporting former NIA director, should be indicted. He had the sole responsibility of delivering all classified documents to trump. This is low hanging fruit.
I don't see how trump lawyers can maintain the Special Master. Judge Dearie's case management order requires them to justify why they didn't file for the return of items with the Magistrate that issued the warrant, as the rules require. The only answer is Judge shopping.
@ExtremeArturo
I can never get over the support trump maintains among Mexican Americans. But, I lived in New Mexico for 3 years and was always surprised to hear Mexicans refer to each other as "wetbacks".
Thank you John Avalon of CNN for finally doing a story on anti-vaxxers who died of COVID. There really needs to be a 60 minutes or other news show documentary on this-it could save lives.
I'm a semi-retired lawyer. Tomorrow I will go to the gym, do some shopping, work on my book and talk to friends. You know what I won't be doing? Sitting in Court for 7 hours listening to witnesses testify how I stole an election. 😂
@costareports
I think there may be some campaign finance violations. How can you raise money based on a lie? He called the election crooked even though his own people commissioned a report finding otherwise.
@LarrySabato
The big picture is these stories were supplemented with Russian disinformation that was circulated in swing districts via social media. Of course the Enquirer is a rag, but if you start seeing similar headlines pop into your news feed it subconsciously validates the lie.

Ulysses S. Grant said something similar during the Civil War. Tired of his leaders lauding Lee's tactics, he said: 'stop worrying about what Lee is going to do to you and start making him worry about what you're going to do to him'. So you're in good company.

Jordan lied to the American people claiming he identified "dozens" of FBI whistleblowers. He had three, all were compromised, none were whistleblowers.

They denied Cassidy Hutchinson's version too quickly, which is why other agents came forward to verify parts of the story. There is clearly some turmoil going on.

Sending an aircraft carrier is a sign that we are preparing for when Israel discovers a direct link to Iran. I suspect the Israelis are drawing up target lists as we speak.

@lramseth
Correct. If classified, he should never have revealed he was in Afghanistan. A simple reverse engineering with documents retrieved from FOI requests can figure out the nature of his alleged deployment.
I’ve visited Martha’s Vineyard most of my life and it pisses me off to hear people like Ted Cruz say elitists on the Island are upset. The elitists are gone by Labor Day. The Islanders are working class people who descended from immigrants.

Scalise hates gays more than anyone in Congress. A gay Capitol police officer saved his life. He repaid her by guest speaking at an event sponsored by an ant-gay group as his first speaking engagement after leaving the hospital.
@TrumpDailyPosts
You stole the 2016 election! Pecker has the receipts. The plan was to plant fake stories in the Enquirer that would be amplified by Russian trolls then circulated on social media in swing districts.
I know that I'm not alone in saying that I have been TRAUMATIZED since 2016, when Trump first ran for office. To learn how many TERRIBLE people reside in America has been like living in a horror movie. I must have been really naive before. I wish I still was. Less painful.

This really angers me. Not only will this impact the mid-term elections, but it puts money in the coffers of the Russians when they are in desperate need of funds to support their mobilization. The Saudis need to suffer if they do this.
@BlueWaveCS
@MalcolmNance
He can start by apologizing to the African American Congresswoman he lied about. Then he should apologize for allowing trump to use the memory of his dead son to stifle criticism about trump's treatment of a gold star family.
