I mean, it was to the point that when they parodied her in SNL at the time, the writers barely had to write anything. Most of the time they just repeated what she actually said on tv verbatim. That’s how bad she was.
Huge sigh of relief. First jury trial is in the books. And what's better, I got a guilty on all counts (aka I won)!
Thanks for all the supportive messages over the last couple days. Y'all have brightened up my week. 😘🤗
@BMeiselas
I’d never thought I’d see the day when a major conservative amendment is rejected in ruby-red KANSAS.
The GQP had no idea, but they REALLY DID open Pandora’s Box.

@DiscussingFilm
No.
These are rules in place to save people’s lives and ensure they can work in a safe environment. These assholes who go around breaking safety protocols and are maskless need to be talked to like this more often. I care about people’s lives more than hurt feelings.
So I promise only to brag this time, and this time only so that I'm not an obnoxious prick.
Guess which lawyer just had his first trial ever that he only had 3 days to prep and managed to win on all counts?
This guy. 😁

I like and respect you a lot, George, but, respectfully, I think you’re being disingenuous if you think that withholding vital and potentially dangerous information for years in order to promote it as an exclusive in a book for profit is journalism.
@PettyLupone
Same territory Mike Bloomberg won in 2020.
Remember him? He’s President now, right? Since they want to frame it as where American Samoa goes, the country follows.
@meiselasb
Ben, I was thinking of you all day as I followed the trial and how much I wanted to commiserate with you.
She’s screwing up things I learned in my first BASIC trial advocacy course. How am I a better attorney only 3 years into practice?
It’s so embarrassing to the profession.
I was so excited and a little nervous to meet

I know a lot of people consider this sacrilegious to say, but I think Fetterman is really proving himself. He's much more of a Biden team player/ally compared to the Squad.

I think it’s time to make another phone call to the little boy’s parents. 😂
Man, when you did that back a couple months ago, that was some epic ownage, Brett.
@Victorshi2020
With respect, Victor, I think you’re underselling the fact that you and other Gen Z voters pulled off the statistically improbable.
Yes, it was close, but you guys made a SOLID RED STATE into a purple one for the first time in decades. You deserve to be proud!
Oh my God. I am enthralled, heartbroken and completely losing my mind about this week’s

@innercitypress
Habba and Trump wanted to turn this into grandstanding from the witness stand, but Kaplan wasn’t having it. They had to play by the rules, and since those two are incapable, that’s as far as they got.
@innercitypress
I would usually not advocate for cutting off cross-examination so as to not allow any room for appeal...
...that being said, I would be more than happy if Kaplan shut this shit down here and now. This is going nowhere, she's turning this into a campaign rally.
Man, I really hope the writers can find a way to bring back

and L’Rell in Strange New Worlds or some other show. She’s the best Klingon character to emerge since Martok and it’d be a crying shame to just miss out on developing her more.

@davidmweissman
It’s the sense of entitlement that bothers me. I have friends who didn’t invite me to their weddings because they wanted small, familial ceremonies.
Yes the Bidens are public figures, but this isn’t The Truman Show, you’re not entitled to ever aspect of their lives.
@MacFarlaneNews
As someone who is a criminal law attorney, that doesn't surprise me. Defense attorneys always move for it at the first sign of anything possibly unstable. But that does not excuse not having this man taken into custody. If he's found incompetent, he needs to be held & restored.
@perdee22

Then he’d be costing them a job. You’re really missing the point. If the biggest concern to you is hurt fee fees, check yourself and sit down.

A “good dude” wouldn’t have spent the better part of his life shilling for the party that wants to take civil rights away, especially when he’s a member of a threatened group of people.
Spare me your disingenuous pearl clutching.
The answer is simple. They think they’ve won.
It’s now up to all of us to show them the definition of fuck around and find out by completely demolishing them.
@0liviajulianna
I don't mean to sound like I'm dumping on all of y'all, but do they not force you to take American Government in high school anymore? It was required when I was a senior.
Just seems like more and more people in Gen-Z/Gen Alpha have no grasp of basic civics.
@davidmweissman
@SteveGuest
@tedcruz
You know exactly why. Cause the Dems outsmarted them on this likely reconciliation package designed to combat inflation and they are spiteful, self-centered egotists who take joy in making other people suffer when they do.

Millennial here. In high school, we were REQUIRED to take world history, American history, and American Government. We were required to learn about basic civics, including the Constitution and the powers of the 3 branches of government. Gen Z needs these classes back, IMO.
@BMeiselas
The thing is…I can’t really muster much compassion for them anymore. I’m at the point where it’s just like, let them exist at their own risk.
So I just found a great parking space just now when I went to Target and I yelled out to no one in my own car:
“Cock spot!”
Thanks a lot, Meiselas bros. I hope you’re happy! 🤣

@tify330
AZ is still in primaries but when I went back home to Tucson, there were a lot more Kirsten Engel signs than there were two years ago. I think downballot and the abortion referendum helps in AZ.
Plus Gallego ads are everywhere on TV already with border sheriffs endorsing him.
I continue to be impressed somehow at how low these MAGA Republicans will go. To not only dig up what was supposed to be a private conversation between father and son & air it for the world to hear, to somehow frame this as weakness is just beyond evil.
@meidasjordy
My dad was former DEA. He pretty much said the same thing, that he was shocked that so many people who are supposed to critical thinkers as part of being investigators were so easily swayed by conspiratorial right-wing bullshit.
With being so tuned into politics and current events, it can be truly hard to keep calm, especially if you suffer from anxiety & depression like me. But I think the advice given by

@innercitypress
For those wondering why cross was so brief:
As a lawyer on cross, you can only ask questions that are within the scope of what was said on direct examination. The direct here was short because Kaplan forced Trump and Habba to play by the rules. Therefore, not much to do on cross

This man is supposed to be a seasoned lawyer.
I’m a criminal prosecutor. I have only been practicing for 4 years. But I know enough that when one of my defendants doesn’t show up for trial, I immediately ask the judge for an arrest warrant for failure to appear.

That story you wrote about in your first book about you doing the double headliner at the college orientation week in Florida still cracks me up to this day. 😂

The only thing that potentially concerns me are GQP followers who claim they're vaccinated when they're not and get away with it. But on the other hand, they're not going to wear them regardless. I'm just happy that science is prevailing here.
Listening to the new

said someone had probably already gotten a law degree in the time WHM had been airing. To which I say ✋. I finished undergrad when y’all started and I just graduated law school & passed the bar last year.

Again, promoting investigator commentary with no context, proof, or corroboration.

If you weren't allowed into a police officer's funeral, you'd be on Twitter complaining and martyring yourself within five seconds with "My father" this and "My father" that.
Don't pretend like you have any shame. None of you Republicans do.
