By the way, if Mr. Individual One does make a statement tonight, don’t expect him to hold up fingers cruelly defaced with fingerprinting ink – for years now police departments have had electronic means for taking prints from people. I know, I had mine taken a couple of years ago for a concealed carry license renewal (I’d inadvertently let mine lapse, sigh), and even my relatively small rural/suburban town had that system, so for sure NY City would be so equipped.
Of course, I wouldn’t put it past Tiny Hands to try to fake it.
Not yet. CNN is teasing “Minutes away: Trump speaks at Mar-a-Lago after pleading not guilty to 34 felony counts.” So, could be anytime, or not for a while.
Thanks! Cup of homemade bean and ham soup at the ready. I can’t watch him, so I hope people list their “hits.” I’m really interested to hear if he pays any heed to the judge’s cautions given today.
I thought this clip was interesting, it was discussing the charges, but most importantly one opinion is that Trump might go to trial over the Mar-A-Lago documents case before he goes to trial in New York for business fraud.
Former law clerk for Stephen Breyer and former Acting Solicitor General Neal Katyal join Chris Jansing, Andrea Mitchell, and Katy Tur to share his thoughts on why he believes the Mar-a-Lago documents case could likely go to trial before the hush money case in Manhattan.
As he has on social media in the last month, former President Donald Trump invoked liberal billionaire donor George Soros while criticizing District Attorney Alvin Bragg in his speech on Tuesday night — claiming that Bragg is a “radical left, George Soros-backed prosecutor.”
Ohhh, I checked off Soros, but did not have “radical left” on my card.
Throughout his campaign-style speech — in which he name checked the “Hunter Biden laptop from hell” and wove in references to Hillary Clinton’s emails — Trump spun a narrative that he, instead of being the perpetrator of a crime, is now a conservative martyr, subject to baseless political slings and arrows.
I missed most of Trump’s speech–I had to take an important call–but from what I did hear of it, it basically boiled down to “I’m a victim, I’m being persecuted, they’re on the take.” I presume “they” in this context is primarily Alvin Bragg; and secondarily, Jack Smith, the prosecutor/investigator in the state of Georgia, and likely, the January 6 Committee. And probably something about Soros.
