Trump’s biggest concern regarding his arrest in Atlanta will likely be his weigh-in! Over/under: 275 lbs?

Surprise, surprise. Applicants who come from wealthy families have a much highest acceptance rate to elite colleges than the rank and file. But, and here’s the good news: Silver spoon applicants get in prestige schools easier, are more likely to land plum graduate school acceptances, and are more likely to get hired by top-notch law and financial firms. But their income down the road is not much better than their brethren who went to state schools. Meritocracy still works.

So Rep. Comer wants to subpoena the Biden family. Like who would that be? Biden, his wife, the grandchildren? Hunter, of course. What a travesty, considering that the Kushners were guilty of the most blatant influence-peddling by a president’s family in - to use Trump’s often repeated phrase - the history of our country.

CHUTKAN: “What the defendant is currently doing — the fact that he’s running a political campaign has to yield to the orderly administration of justice. If that means he can’t say exactly what he wants to say about witnesses in this case, that’s how it has to be.”

Has anyone claimed yet that the Ohio special election was rigged?

I spent a wonderful vacation on Maui back in the day. Terrible to see the devastation that lovely island is undergoing.

Heard a so-called legal pundit on the radio today saying Trump will get convicted in D.C. and New York because the jury pools and the judges there are prejudiced against Trump. The host pushed back: So you don’t have faith in the justice system? Answer: “No.” But what about the case in Florida, where the jury pool is pro-Trump and the judge there has already shown favoritism toward Trump? Answer: “That’s different. Biden didn’t lose Florida by that much, so the jury would be fairer.” C’mon.

Lindsey Graham. Bless his heart. He’s thrown away any semblance of integrity he might have had since he went all in for Trump. His latest: “Trump beat me like a drum.” And he was proud of it. And this: “I like Trump, and he likes himself, so we have that in common.”

Trump has never paid bail for his three indictments, so I hope articles and statements will stop referring to him as being “out on bail.”

Will any trial of Trump’s multiple indictments actually get underway before the 2024 election? Doubt it. So the only thing Trump has to do to stay out of jail is to win that election. All the indictments will then be quashed. No trials. Like it never happened.

Very interesting that Mark Meadows is not named ( or implied) in the latest indictment. Indicates to me he’s cooperated with Jack Smith’s investigation.

Obstruction of an official proceeding. Can someone explain to me why this is the serious charge every legal pundit thinks it is? For an example, if, during a vote in the House, someone comes running down the aisle in the house, naked, waving a flag, and tooting a horn and evades security for five minutes or so, is he guilty of obstructing an official proceeding? Well, yes. Of course. Seems to me there should be a more serious sub paragraph to that charge involving Trump.

It’s not technically illegal to pay for the lawyers for those accused of the same crimes as you, but it reeks of conflict of interest, something we’ve already seen in Abby Grossberg’s suit against Fox News and with Cassidy Hutchinson’s testimony preparation for the J6 hearings. Would a lawyer urge his client to accept an immunity plea deal that involves flipping on the one who is paying him? He should, of course, but would he?

So the MAGA crowd doesn’t care about Trump indictments. It’s political, the Deep State, a corrupt DOJ, etc. Fine. But what if their beloved leader is behind bars? What then? Riots in the streets would be their only option. Even if Trump makes a deal to avoid prison time - a real possibility - he’d be barred from public office. And there’d still be riots in the streets. Thanks, DJT, for bringing us into another civil war.

After staying safe for three years, including two vaccinations and a booster, all it took was a funeral in N.J. to bring me down with Covid! Day three of feeling miserable.

Well, even though it isn’t Twitter any longer, posted comments are still called tweets. Maybe eventually they’ll be called Xhibits?

Inflation is down, as is unemployment, and the Fed says the risk of a recession is diminished. So what happens today? Dow down over 200 points. Go figure.

Republicans have found a new way to criticize the government (Biden). UAPs! They’re excited about it now, even though UFOs have been a source of controversy for decades. Now it’s a national security issue, and the Biden administration needs to come clean about the cover-up. Yeah, just like Eisenhower, Nixon, Ford, Reagan, two Bushes, and Trump did.

It sure looks like McConnell had a petit mal seizure, probably related to the concussion he had from a fall.

The Republican Party has become the MAGA Party. Even if it loses Trump, it will find a facsimile. It’s time for a party to emerge that embodies the best of what the Republicans used to be. It might take several election cycles to gain a footing, but the country needs it. Obviously, the No Labels Party ain’t that party.
