A Perfectly Reasonable Amount of Schadenfreude about Things Happening to Trump & His Enablers (Part 1)

Drain the swamp, my bleeding ass.

Zhang notes, “Special preference was given to the largest loans, which often also went to the largest corporations. On January 16, 2021, four days before President Joe Biden’s inauguration, Trump’s SBA wiped 99 percent of special review flags — which were given out to every loan above $2 million for separate investigatory purposes.”

There are three kinds of people in the world. People who understand math, and people who don’t.

He drained the swamp of alligators - and stocked it with piranhas.

Republicans simply will not live up to their agreements.

She is demanding Rudy pay up the $262,000 he allegedly owes her with interest, but says he has been inconsistent with payments, and even claimed a check he paid her for $10,000 in July bounced.

I remember hearing about this a few weeks ago. Shouldn’t he already be in jail by now?

You get a bunch of extra chances if you’re a celebrity!

Don’t you realize how many of those ‘personal messages’ you have to record to get ten-grand?

My favorite part of the story is how Guiliani accused his now ex-wife of swiping the TV remotes and cable boxes so he couldn’t watch TV. I bet I know what channel he couldn’t stop watching.

Fox news may be screwed too, concerning the Dominion lawsuit.

CBS has just released audio recorded by police officer Michael Fanone, who tried to prevent the January Insurrection. This audio was recorded at a meeting in June between members of Congress and officers & family of 1/6 police; it highlights Kevin McCarthy attempting to downplay the insurrection.

Bobb apparently signed off on a document attesting that there were no classified documents at Mar-a Lago, without any knowledge about whether or not there were classified documents at Mar-a-Lago. In other words, as a lawyer, she willfully obstructed the Department of Justice.

I don’t see much in the way of career opportunities for her. Fox News Commentator? Nah, she does not have straight blonde hair, and is not 23.

I believe she’s already done time over at Newsmax or OAN or one of the other “less reputable than Faux” organizations.
Here’s hoping that next, she just does time!

A good question is raised: why didn’t Corcoran just sign the thing himself? Sounds like this guy deserves to be thrown under the bus.

I don’t know if this is posted above, but it’s more news about the T-rump lawyers throwing each other under the bus.

Nobody wants to be the toadie left holding the bag.

Bobb, who served as Trump’s custodian of record, has [said that she was not acting as Trump’s attorney at the time]. During her interview with the DOJ on Friday, she pointed the finger at fellow Trump attorneys Evan Corcoran and Boris Epshteyn, according to NBC.

Bobb “did not draft the statement,” sources told NBC. She told investigators that Corcoran drafted it and told her to sign it.

The Nuremberg defense? I was just following orders? It will not work. She signed it, she is responsible for it.

Yeah, the whole point of signing for it is to take responsibility. That’s why the smarter lawyer had her do it.

More sophisticated than their usual Chewbacca Defense, at least.

“Here, sign this document that you have no knowledge of, and just trust me that it’s all accurate. Don’t worry that it might open you up to charges of obstruction of justice. Just Trust Me.”

Did Bobb even go to law school?
