Nothing more fun than tracking down #Trump's latest grift. For his sneakers, he's getting a fee paid to CIC Ventures, which he owns, by 45Footwear LLC, which is purportedly the shoe manufacturer. That is based in Sheridan Wyoming, in this rundown house in a grimy shopping mall.

Too many, huh? Imposition? Well, now you know how we feel.

A federal appeals court has stopped accepting public complaints against Judge Aileen #Cannon — many seeking her recusal from the classified documents case against #Trump — citing a flood of 1,000 filings in recent weeks that appear to be part of 'an orchestrated campaign.' #legal

Via Katie Phang:

Before the lawyers depart, Judge Merchan strongly tells Blanche that he doesn’t think it was an accident when Blanche told jury that the jury should think twice before “sending a man to prison.”

Merchan to Blanche: Your statement was “outrageous” & “highly inappropriate.”

Merchan’s tone was tempered but you could tell he was angry w Blanche. Merchan noted that Blanche’s experience as a federal prosecutor suggests that this was no accident on his part #TrumpTrial #Trump #legal

HAPPENING NOW: The jury says it wants Merchan to begin the instructions with the part about how they are supposed to consider the evidence and draw inferences -- including the metaphor about how if the ground is wet in the AM, you can infer it rained over night.

Nighty night.

I'll post news alerts should they come my way.

I'm in a mood, yes. I've been unable to do what I need to do bc of this dumb cold, so if I was cranky to you, apologies.

And btw, when I say I'm sorry for not replying, it's not bc I think you're dying for my pearls of wisdom, it's because I hate being rude and making anyone feel ignored. it's a thing with me.

Thanks for your get-wells. ❤️
