I have rarely seen a defendant facing trial alone with no family, at least one person, in the courtroom for him. It's a sad commentary for a former president with four grown children & a wife, all of whom seem to have deserted him in the moment.

Catch up on the mechanics of Trump's 34 counts of falsifying business records.

How did a $130,000 payoff gross up to $420,000 in reimbursements, forming a paper trial sparking dozens of felonies?

Today, something weighs heavy on my mind.

With so much at stake, we need young people to be involved, more than ever.

With just over 200 days before the election, how can we cut through the noise and get them to the polls in November?

Here are a few suggestions:

No wonder we fell for them 🥹🥲

Trump puts a target not only Judge Merchan in the criminal case in Manhattan but on his daughter. This is a rank effort at intimidating the judge by threatening his family. It merits a gag order but also serious pushback from GOP leadership--which we know won't come.

I’d like to weigh in on NBC news' recent decision to hire Ronna McDaniel.

By giving her a platform, NBC has given legitimacy to the lies she helped the former president spread.

Now we come to the why. Why would NBC News hire someone as controversial? 

Here’s the reason:

In case you had any doubts that House Republicans are just replaying the same 2019 Trump-Giuliani smear campaign, the Russian hoax from the Russian intelligence playbook, Lev Parnas laid it out:

✅Hunter Biden laptop
✅Hunter Biden bank records
✅Leaked FBI records

Jack E. Smith ⚖️ Ms. Clinton is absolutely right. It is time now to change that paradigm. Since he can’t put up the bond to cover the judgement, as far as I understand it, he is in default. The state can force asset liquidation to recover the judgement. And they should. That will hurt Trump, as…

“I've worked with the president and I haven't seen anything that's abnormal before. It was like President Trump saying Niki Haley three times instead of Nancy Pelosi; sometimes you say…

Republicans against Trump MAGA Republicans, please take note: THIS is what decency looks like! There is simply no reason to blow things out of proportion. Many, many people, who are/ have been very close to Biden, on both sides of the aisle, have come out to support him. Take heed.
That is all.

This this this this… all day this!!! 🔥

The last guy had the worst jobs record since the Great Depression.

Our record is a little different.

Donald J. Trump Posts From His Truth Social Oh, look at Donald 'I'm Always the Victim' Trump, crying about how unfairly he was treated in his defamation lawsuit, blaming everyone from the judge to his own lawyers for his inevitable defeat. Because, clearly, it's never his fault - the system is just rigged against him,…
