    That is one of the most disturbing things I've ever seen. No hyperbole. That is absolutely f***ed up.

    The only thing worse than the current leadership we have in Washington, especially on the Republican side - is the American people for voting them into office and not removing them.

    Washington is now ran by a bunch of classless trailer park trash people….. Trump, spineless Graham… Cruz, Cooter DeSantis, Biden’s son who should be in prison and everyone else… it’s embarrassing and our country is starting to suffer from it.

    These are the best people we have to lead us? WTF

    They are the way they are. The blame is on those that vote for them. As long as people vote for them, they will continue to be the way they are.

    More news on Donald "Sticky Fingers' Trump ... "The Presidential Records Act says I can take what I want. Get over it, already!" ...

    Breaking: From the Department of You Can’t Make This **** Up:

    Ancient artefacts sent from Israel to the US four years ago on a short-term basis and intended for display at a White House event have ended up at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, according to a report.

    judge cannon continues to protect trump... setting the trial date far enough out to allow the expected continuances and delays to push the trial past the election...

    I expected no less from her. The whole process has reeked of her loyalty to Trump's wishes.

    I find the insinuations that Cannon is crooked pretty tiresome. Literally anything she does will be interpreted as a favor to Trump.

    I personally think it speaks more towards the differential treatment that Trump get in the judicial system, and how much someone like him has the power to abuse it to escape Justice. The same differential treatment Cannon gave Trump in a last situation you could say is on par with the differential treatment Merrick Garland gave in severely delaying the appointment of a Special Prosecutor almost two years after these crimes were committed, and had to be shamed into action by the House Committee to do anything.

    That special treatment by Garland and the DOJ is likely to be of greater consequence of escaping Justice than anything Cannon will do... sans him being found guilty and Cannon sentencing him to nothing more than probation or something silly like that.

    The real issue here is how money and privilege can allow any American the ability to delay delay delay, and flood the court with procedural nonsense in order to eventually escape Justice.

    I see as good for Smith and bad for Trump. A trial in May means he'll have to be in court and the trial could be over before the election.

    We also don't know the extent of the Jan. 6th case. But since it doesn't presumably contain the same amount of classified evidence, I think it could potentially jump in front of Mar-a-Lago case.

    Of course 26 different things could happen before then so who knows? But this isn't high on my list of concerns.

    True. I honestly think the other trials will be worse for him, even if his MAGA voters in Florida vote him innocent, regardless of evidence presented. Who knows how many more crimes Trump will commit this year. He is always involved in some kind of illegal activity. It's just how he rolls.

    I like the May trial date IF and only IF she can keep it on track, she knows there will be delays and I think we will have better handle on what she is doing if she keeps pushing it back and then poof it's after the election. I don't think trump would win but it would be a travesty if he did and then this was pushed back past the election, and he wiped everything away. We all know that's why trump is running, its solely for the fact that he can sweep everything under the rug.............I don't think he has a chance, but I thought that in 2016 and boy was I wrong

    It's weird how she's facing insinuations that are the direct consequences of her own past actions!

    So tiresome! Literally I'm tired!
