Ron Filipkowski That will be a tough claim for the jury to accept given Trump's long history of always paying his bills promptly, never stiffing anyone, and never scamming anyone.

Completely out of character...

Note - one striking thing about most of the testimony is that it’s from contemporaneous texts and emails between these people. Nobody is testifying from memory here and the jury is seeing this stuff from when it was happening in writing.

“Somebody has to do it,” Dunn says, “and I believe [our democracy] is worth fighting for. I wouldn’t be able to live with myself if I sat on the sidelines and just said, ‘Somebody else can do it.’”

The Shallow State I think people are scared of what might happen to them if they don't 'kiss the ring.' People like her and Bill Barr display their allegiance in the media shamelessly. Imagine their choices. Support Trump and hopefully go free without having to leave the country, or side with

I can't believe Katy Tur did it again. One day after being termed a 'Trump apologist' by Nancy Pelosi, she mentions to her guest Charles Blow that Eric Trump is in court today, and when Charles rightfully points out it was the first time any family member attended, Tur says:

Smart move by Merchan. This is the first criminal contempt finding. It's a warning to Trump that the games won't be tolerated.

If he does it again, and Merchan does have to cross the rubicon and jail him, it strengthens Merchan's argument on appeal.

Hypothetical becomes reality. Trump was just found in criminal contempt, a state crime. The terms of his release in the federal cases is a commitment to not engage in any future state crimes.

so now what?

MeidasTouch Trump 2.0 is anti-American and awful!

It's outrageous to hear host CHAMPION theory that Trump won't be so bad; look at his first term.

Damn it, man!

Pay attention!

The second Trump term will be way worse.

Study what Trump is saying.

All the whining, crying and lies from Trump, his surrogates, Fox & Newsmax about Trump not being able to attend Barron’s graduation when all the judge did is reserve ruling then granted the request this morning. But now they will lie and whine and cry about something new today.

Laurence Tribe 🇺🇦 ⚖️ I hope you are right Professor. Because if SCOTUS votes for immunity, which they can with right-wing majority, IF Trump's reelected that will be the end of democracy, the United States, and maybe human civilization. Everyone read the Project 2025 manifesto to understand why. With
