If People v. Trump finds him guilty, what are his options for appeals?

What, besides racism, would make white Americans toy with installing a dictator.

@StillIRise1963
Nothing. When you examine any of it with even the slightest scrutiny, racism is the only conclusion.

Just a reminder that, at the time of the 2000 negotiations at Camp David, Israel was continuing to construct settlements in the territories that were proposed to be part of a future Palestinian state under the terms of the negotiations. Israel would not commit to freezing these settlement as a condition to entering the negotiations.

National Day of Prayer continues to advance Christian Nationalism

Apr 30, 2024 Andrew L. Seidel

From American United for Separation of church and state:

"...You heard that correctly – in a nation where the First Amendment of our Constitution demands that “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion,” Congress established a National Day of Prayer...

The law requires the President of the United States to issue a proclamation recognizing the National Day of Prayer. Some local and state governments similarly recognize the day. Although supporters may claim NDP welcomes all people to participate, it ostracizes nonreligious people, those who don’t pray and many religious minorities. Both the history of NDP and the rhetoric of those who continue to promote it make clear that NDP is mainly for Christians..."

Okay, I finished this week's blog post.

This took me a long time.

About 3 hours ago, I was sure it made sense. Then I kept working. I hope it still makes sense LOL.

https://terikanefield.com/wheres-the-beef-trumps-manhattan-criminal-case-and-some-mind-bending-legal-puzzles/

I discuss the criminal liability for behaving like a gold-plated bucket of slime and offer a few mind-bending legal puzzles.

It's super fun, sort of.

Hi Teri, thanks so much. Love reading your blog, it is very informative.

My question is, how does a case like this get to trial if the prosecution can't clearly define the crime?

Hello Fediverse!

Today we're taking another important step in our journey to fully federate Flipboard.

This morning we federated 1,000 Flipboard Magazines curated by the publishers we have been testing federation with in addition to 20 new publishers we are federating today. These include magazines like Adventure Travel by Outside, Eater DC by Eater, Explore NYC by Thrillist, Throwbacks by SPIN, and Climate Tech by Bloomberg.

Flipboard Magazines are a simple way to curate articles, images, videos and podcasts into a thematic feed. This powerful curation tool has been at the heart of Flipboard since 2012 with millions of magazines curated since about recipes, road trips, architecture, books, tech trends and so much more.

Federated magazines become native feeds and can be followed by anyone on Mastodon. For example, check out my Following the Fediverse magazine @following

I believe that thoughtfully curated feeds have the power to make social media a lot more effective and inspiring so I'm excited to bring millions of these magazines to the as we federate all public curators in the next few weeks.

Check out my Medium post for more details along with a list of some of the great magazines we federated today.

Is American media dead? Thousands of layoffs. Publications shutting down. News deserts. The press is collapsing, as old business models no longer work. But where does that leave democracy and the notion of an informed society?

We curated this collection of articles on the issue including content by @jeffjarvis, @niemanlab, @TheConversationUS and more.

NYT/Siena Poll: Biden trailing Trump in five of the six most important battleground states. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/11/05/us/politics/biden-trump-2024-poll.html

@w7voa
The problem with polls is they are designed to influence opinions more than reflect opinions.

Teri_Kanefield, to random

Someone asked me what I think is going on with Trump's lawyers attacking the clerk.

Yesterday I said this:

"It's hard to tell what is going on with that. My best guess is that Trump's lawyers are fatigued, know they are losing, and are getting weird and paranoid."

Judge Engoron, who sees it all up close, said there is misogyny.

I just saw a picture of the clerk and I have revised my opinion.

The judge may be right . . .

This strategy is about controlling the headlines.

And it works because we are definitely not talking about how the trump defense is that the accountants are to blame because Eric and jr. are too important to be bothered with the accuracy of documents they sign.
