Catch 22 is real.
"In early 2021, Trump’s lawyers said during his second impeachment trial that there was no need for the Senate to convict the former president, because the matter was better left to the judiciary.
In early 2024, Trump’s lawyers said the former president’s alleged crimes can’t be left to the judiciary, because the Senate didn’t vote to convict."

#Caturday Sabrina and Fiona

In honor of Free Feral Cat Spay Day, a pic of Mama Cat with her clipped ear, indicating she has now been spayed. She had a litter under our porch this winter. We were able to catch her, have her spayed, and then released back into her world.

We were able to capture and tame two of her kittens and they are now cuddly members of our family.

This is not what I wanted to hear, but this judge has been correct most of the time.
“I’m profoundly disturbed about the apparent direction of the court. I now believe that it is unlikely Trump will ever be tried for the crimes he committed in attempting to overturn the 2020 election.” - former federal judge J. Michael Luttig

The Last Thing This Supreme Court Could Do To Shock U.S.

There will be no more self-soothing after this.

It isn't a surprise that many college kids support Hamas. They use platforms like TikTok, which are rife with disinformation, are primarily taught the bad things about what Western nations did, aren't given any boundaries, and quite honestly can't handle the least amount of criticism. It makes them very easy targets for propaganda campaigns.

To the simple lay person there is, at least, an APPEARANCE of conflict of interest, when THREE justices appointed by Trump, and one other justice who had a spouse urging the Trump coup, do not recuse them self from THE pivotal case about Trump.

The appearance of…

@dauphin87

yes, that was part of the deal

national enquirer buys story, has "victim" them sign exclusivity, NDA, yada yada. David Pecker would tell Trump, bury the stroy, and Trump would use Michael Cohen and shell companies to pay David Pecker and the victim

There is an audio conversation that Cohen recorded where Trump thought they could wait until after the Election and not have to pay Stormy Daniels.

which kind of blows up the "Didn't want Melania to know" excuse

We should take bets on how many days people think Don Snoreleone's going to be able to sit in that courtroom without going completely ballistic no matter the consequences of it, which he will say don't apply to him anyway.

I give it 8 or 9 days so middle of next week May 1st. May Day....he fucking explodes like a gaseous supernova like Nicholson does in A Few Good Men and destroys himself.

$20 bucks goes to CoSo if he does it before or after that day.
