Tommy Tuberville says he went to Gotham to help an accused felon threaten a judge's family.

Via David Lurie:

Tuberville is a bad co-conspirator.

Tommy Tuberville admits on Newsmax that "one of the reasons he went" to NYC yesterday was to "overcome this gag order"

I'm sure the DA will let the court know that specifically....

and gohmert, although gone, has a successor.... and may no longer be considered the dumbest who ever served.

It's been brought up a couple times on CNN and MSNBC.... so the DA will have to be aware of it as well... one can hope.... this judge seems to be mostly no-nonsense

Eric Trump just swapped seats with Rep. Donalds just in time for the congressman to appear in photos behind Trump's defense table.

That's what this trial is now for Trump, a political photo opp.

I'm not sure what some folks think will happen to the economy under a 2nd trump regime...

It seems to me when you go to round-up and deport or place in camps 11 million or more people there would be some massive economic shifts... bank runs, massive market turbulence, thousands of businesses closing due to no workers, farms with food rotting in the fields, construction projects in need of laborers, millions of people out of jobs in government when departments close.

tdwllms1,
@tdwllms1@mstdn.social avatar

military in the streets as martial law is instituted due to massive protests, millions of people who'll refuse to accept deportation and millions more hiding their neighbors, friends and family members.. literally chaos... outright fighting in the streets...

@jimv

Exactly... I'm not sure many realize that...it's not trump centric.... anyone willing will do... and even the not quite so willing.

recall what Norquist said at CPAC in 2012

[We just need to] pick a Republican with enough working digits to handle a pen to become the president of the United States . . . [and] to sign the legislation that has already been prepared.

So we had this gaggle of lawmakers come to Trump's trial today to debase themselves and their office to do Trump's bidding in attacking Cohen, the judge and the jury on social media...and they expect everyone to believe they did this all on their own. Right. My question is, who paid for their travel, hotel, meals, etc.? Love to see an audit on that. Or, I wonder if they were stupid enough to believe Trump would reimburse them.

@Wileymiller

I'm guessing the taxpayer paid for their travel and room and board... and I'd suggest the Judge hold them as equally accountable as trump and fine them 1000$, as well fine trump... he thinks he's cute and the judge stupid.... neither is true... and I hope the DA's office brings that up for the court to consider.

FYI, someone just asked me, "Could you please put a CW on those US politics posts?"

I said no sorry,, just mute me.

I don't understand CWing political posts. And that doesn't mean you need to @ me explaining why. I know THEIR reasons, I just disagree with them and won't do it.

I respect CWs for other things, but not politics. Politics is news and people need to be aware of what's happening. It's not gory or violent, it's politics.

Kthxbye.
