Re: The challenges ahead (Biden's America)
I doubt the new rule with survive legal challenges, sadly. Not with the Roberts court.

Re: Trump Indicted by Manhattan District Attorney
This pretty much sums up the gag order hearing so far.

Re: Trump Charged With 37 counts of Espionage, Obstruction and related crimes
There is a huge trowel of information that has been revealed now that Trump's motion to compel discovery and the hundreds of pages of exhibits have been docketed in a heavily redacted form. That motion was filed on January 16 and the opposition was filed on February 2, and Cannon still has not ruled.

Re: Trump Indicted by Manhattan District Attorney
No. Cohen doesn't just get to decide what he can and cannot say, that is up the judge and Trump's violation of the gag order would more likely be relevant to impeaching Trump's own testimony (if he did testify) rather than justifying Cohen's name-calling. Anyway, saying "I'm sleazeball because ...

Re: Trump Indicted by Manhattan District Attorney
I meant to mention Trump's potential further violation of the gag order earlier, but didn't. I'm sure that the prosecutors will mention that at the hearing tomorrow, but I doubt that the judge will specifically address it (though maybe I am wrong).

A reminder that the "star witness" is almost as awful as the defendant.

Trump insists that he is going to testify. In related news, there is a bridge for sale in Brooklyn (or oceanfront property in Kansas, if you prefer).

As Hugo Lowell says, here is the second prong of Trump's defense: https://twitter.com/hugolowell/status/1782431576204169268 But it is not the non-disclosure agreement that was illegal, it was the false documents that covered up the non-disclosure agreement that were illegal, and the failure to repor...

Re: Trump Indicted by Manhattan District Attorney
Here is Trump's defense in a nutshell: https://twitter.com/KlasfeldReports/status/1782430020801044632 The problem with this is that there is abundant evidence (not just the word of convicted felon Michael Cohen) that this is not true. By making this argument, the defense risks it backfiring in the f...

And yet, the very first statement in the prosecutor Matthew Colangelo's opening statement was ""This case is about a criminal conspiracy and a cover up."N.E. Brigand wrote: ↑Tue Apr 04, 2023 8:55 pm I'm not seeing the word "conspiracy" in either of those documents.
