Re: Trump
More good news for Trump (BBC website)
Trump suffered another legal setback on Friday when a New York judge ruled that a criminal case against his company - the Trump Organization - and its longtime chief financial officer can proceed.
Former CFO Allen Weisselberg appeared in court to hear the judge's response to his February request to dismiss all 15 charges against the company and himself.
Prosecutors allege that the defendants are guilty of criminal fraud and tax evasion. They say the alleged scheme allowed Weisselberg to avoid paying taxes of some $1.8m (£1.5m) in off-the-books income.
Jury selection is set for 24 October.

Re: Trump
NYT are reporting that one of Trump's lawyers, "signed a written statement in June asserting that all material marked as classified and held in boxes in a storage area at Mr. Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence and club had been returned to the government." "The written declaration was made after a visit on June 3 to Mar-a-Lago by Jay I. Bratt, the top counterintelligence official in the Justice Department’s national security division."
No surprise, but his lawyer has apparently lied, in writing no less, about whether the don was in possession of the boxes of documents in question. The case against him keeps on building itself.

I suppose that’s possible. That would make the lawyer in question awfully shitty at their job.bitter-iron-ny wrote: ↑Sun Aug 14, 2022 4:57 am Or was lied to.
Did you know that there was still classified material where it didn't belong? He or she will now be asked that question directly.

Re: Trump
Trump worshippers are turning the Republican party into something akin the Taliban. Not that I'd wave a flag for Cheney, but another step towards US collapse last night.

Re: Trump
I trust these Trumpist candidates who are winning their primaries are no longer bellyaching about rigged elections? Or can I safely assume that they only think the elections are rigged when they lose?

Re: Trump
No, they're consistently delusional/dishonest. Statewide officials and candidates in places like Wyoming and Oklahoma, where Trump won by 30 and 33 points respectively (similar to overwhelmingly favorable margins for all Republican candidates) insist that there was not a free and fair election in their state. It's a coordinated campaign of disinformation designed to build support to undermine the electoral process.last.caress wrote: ↑Wed Aug 17, 2022 8:47 am I trust these Trumpist candidates who are winning their primaries are no longer bellyaching about rigged elections?

Re: Trump
What does Mitch McConnell think of all this?
He embraced the cult of trump so he could get his Supreme Court & political agenda but now it's ripped the heart out of his party & his kind of Conservatives are being called RINO (Republican in name only) by trumps cult.
So does he court trump, stand up to him or just do nothing?
The vast majority of politicians, of all sides, are just scheming bastards who will go where the votes are. This Cheney seems to have some integrity. And it's cost her. So what do others do?
I think we know the answer......
