This seems like a good way to get the judge to find in favor of the defense motion to dismiss.

NYT editorial staff in shambles.

Common law marriage also can be a problem in probate. When I lived in Texas I got married specifically because we were worried about my husband’s estranged family contesting our joint property if he were to pass. Or contesting our PoA in the case of medical decisions.

He really wants to use nuclear weapons.

I am just waiting for him to blurt out that he did this new thing called a PET scan, can you believe it? A scan for your pets. Nobody ever heard about this thing before, but he passed it with flying colors.

We were led in a rousing song of “If you’re not in the Epstein files clap your hands!”

These charges will go nowhere. This is just so Trump can characterize his enemies as criminals.

Trump does love stiffing people who work for him.

I think the cult just likes that he allows them to be their worst selves. After being told for years that they are bad for being racist, sexist bigots finally some powerful person who is all those things becomes president and so they feel justified in being the awful humans they are.

Strong talk from someone who fits all the criteria for an antichrist. Dear Mr. President, how’s your pedo spiritual advisor doing? Called him yet? Drafting a pardon for your fellow child molester?

He is both. His rise and subsequent tyranny are the result of a decades-long plan by autocratic moneyed interests, but the rapid dissolution of political norms was very much his doing.

He also announced a purge of military leadership.

Our courts don’t work that quickly, but probably the initial hearings will be the defense asking for dismissal with prejudice and the prosecutor having to explain why this isn’t actually exactly what everyone knows it is.

Unless it goes to Cannon’s court, in which case Comey will get the death penalty.

This is practically textbook malicious prosecution. The social media post by Trump and the statute of limitations being only days away at the time of indictment make me expect any non-MAGA federal judge to toss this case immediately. The defendant has such a good affirmative defense that this going to trial would be an embarrassment to the court.

My grandfather was an antifa. Sadly, he isn’t around to show this administration how they did it last time.

The US is increasingly resembling the 1986 comedy The Money Pit starring Tom Hanks and Shelly Long.

Fully Agree that Sinclair is a problem, but you can’t really boycott them aside from just not watching their channels.

Also, I kind of disagree about them being the real puppet masters. I’ve worked for an affiliate before. The network holds all the cards in that relationship. Sinclair saying they won’t run network content will just cause them to lose their affiliate status, ABC can just not provide them any content at all, then what will they put on the air? Especially since Disney owns a great deal of syndicated content as well. It’s a pointless bluff statement and ABC/Disney know it, they are just choosing to go along with the fascism.

I’d boycott Disney, except I haven’t given them any money for years now. They are an awful company and stifling political speech is perfectly in line with their prior actions.

Humans are complicated and often defy attempts at easy categorization, the only person who can tell us the actual motive has lawyered up.

Weird, I see the byline as David Corn, their Washington, D.C. Bureau Chief.
