  1. Let me convey my thoughts and prayers to her during these difficult times. And this…
  2. OTOH, evidence of ethical and result oriented improprieties in the Comey case should be admissible in the James case to support the premise that Trump is selectively targeting political enemies. The fact that the same AG who disregarded declination letters in Comey pursued the action against James is arguably relevant to both actions, as they are both prosecutors who pursued Trump and are seen by Trump as his enemies. If Miss Colorado was not properly appointed, that leaks into the James case as well. I will quote an article below as a pretty good cheat sheet of the James defenses.
  3. How could anyone pardon that? That would be like pardoning people who attacked the capital building on January 6, and….. Oh.
  4. There is a small logistical problem. Once we identify our clients in federal court as being undocumented, we run the risk of getting ICE laser focused to deport them. The Louisiana legislature did extend our statute of limitations to two years very recently, and so if we have an undocumented client who returns to their country, preferably a child who has not capable of intentionally violating immigration laws or assuming illegal Social Security identification, we might file something. The test case obviously needs to portray that client in the best possible light. Bad facts make bad law and all.
  5. We have upgraded the quality and number of surveillance cameras, and are making sure that real time video is stored in the cloud in case ‘we said they said’ ever becomes an issue.
  6. That is one of the several things in play. One is the targeted prosecution issue, another is the fact that Miss Colorado was not a properly appointed attorney general. Another is the legal insufficiency that should result in a no true bill ever being presented, the statute of limitations having run now. Granted, that amount of chicanery can result in a dismissal with prejudice that moots the statute of limitations thing. The Comey indictment will be dismissed, the only question is, which of the many reasons is decided first. IMO
  7. We have less of those after the Louisiana legislature passed a bill that says undocumented aliens may not recover damages for being injured in auto accidents in Louisiana. Put your Maga hat on and fire up your pickup truck. Feel free to blow through stop signs and traffic lights at high-speed while listening to Kid Rock, because if you cripple or kill some undocumented kids, you can just point at those little brown criminals and laugh while calling ICE on the survivors.
  8. DOJ superiors instructing a lawyer not to answer a federal judge’s specific questions about an important issue with law and fact is usually not gonna go over so well. It also came out that Halligan hung around after the grand jury no true billed the first attempt most of the grand jury went home, but the jury foreperson and one other grand juror were hanging around, so Halligan got two of the Grand jury members to sign the second indictment, which she signed and delivered to the federal magistrate. Both of those things are far more problematic for them from a discipline standpoint then her being too stupid to know how to conduct a grand jury indictment process. Inexperienced or no, she was well aware that she presented a totally invalid indictment an indictment that lead to Comey retaining criminal defense counsel to fight that false charge. There will be lots of popcorn, consuming fun coming out of this. There is zero way that Comey’s indictment is not overturned.
  9. They’re in New Orleans now. I just got out of a meeting where the firm was deciding whether to put a sign on the front door saying “No ICE or law-enforcement of any jurisdiction are allowed to enter the building absent a signed search warrant. No employees have authority to grant access; contact firm owners”… …or whether once somebody saw that notice and told ICE that would put us on their radar. We are a predominantly Hispanic firm, employee wise, and well known in the community. Yay ‘Murca!
  10. I can’t be certain, but I remember hearing some Democratic congressman mention that there is language in the Epstein bill that makes it criminal not to release all of the file, an effort to create some statutory obstruction of Congress crime even more specific than the normal refusal to follow congressional subpoenas and such. Could be wrong, I haven’t read the legislation. I have to think that there are also some career DOJ/FBI peeps who are as unhappy as they can be. They might be willing to take advantage of whistleblower statutes. If the Trump team did not vet everybody who has had access to any of that for party loyalty, some of that information might already be in the hands of Trump hating third parties already. it would certainly be stupid if they did that, but stupidity is on par with cruelty with those people
  11. When you hear the glass crashing, you instinctively know that a chair has not been thrown through a window, no…. Laura Loomer’s sprint across the parking lot has ended with her crushing head first through the window and onto the floor. She is nude, smeared with her own feces as her first layer of battle protection. Excrement and her long underarm hair twisted into a braid in the shape of a capital M, denoting which political clan is most connected to the angry screaming voices in her head. Loomer’s sudden appearance is not unnoticed; Boebert skitters toward a corner and turns around, her back now protected. Marge slowly stamps one deformed human hoof after the other onto the ground, Sumo style. She balls her hands into fists and contracts every muscle in her body, her large throat pouch alternately expanding and contracting, an unmistakable display of dominance. Marge ignores Boebert. She is not the threat. Loomer turns her head sideways and stops to meet Marge’s gaze, now squatting as things appear, pushed by contraction out of several bodily orifices. Weapons? Before Loomer fills both hands, Marge attacks. Her squat, muscled body hides unfathomable speed, she closes the distance to Loomer in seconds…
  12. He has a solid legal defense “I forgot!”
  13. And there are protests springing up around Russia as everything goes to shit. They know they can’t protest the war and they know they can’t protest Putin, but they can protest the lack of electricity and Internet and food and jobs and the VAT of 20% added to what they already pay in taxes. I think when Russians protest against taxes, everyone knows they are protesting against the war, because everyone knows why extra taxes were imposed.
  14. What Trump doesn’t get is that Europe is not going to let Ukraine fail. The only thing he will accomplish is a diminishing of American influence in Europe and the world.
  15. nothing to see here, just the United States through its president, giving up on the concept of democracy in exchange for a willingness to let a murderous, rapist, aggressive country invade a neighbor to steal kids and kill their civilians. Obviously, Trump must reward them for that behavior if he wants to get a peace prize.
  16. This is a screenshot from a politico article That 60-15% stat might explain Trump‘s Sunday 180 on the release.
  17. The Democrats should try to demand a vote i’m a bill that specifically asks for all videos possessed by anyone in the United States government relating to the Epstein files. Of course some will vote against that, making it look like a cover-up of the alleged video of Donald doing bad things with half naked young women. Also, refusing to comply (if the house has Senate pass that bill to protect their election chances), refusing to immediately comply, would raise obstruction and other criminal issues. I doubt anyone will have to answer for this criminal administration, but you should at least try to set it up as much as possible.
  18. I had not realized that Mike had sold some of the GOP representatives who voted to release the files by telling them that the Senate would not pass that version of the bill, and would kick it back so they can delay and pass a bunch of amendments on the bill. The reason he looks shaken is because he lied to a whole bunch of Republican house members about what would happen in the Senate. Which makes you wonder what kind of communication he had with Thune - is Mike an idiot who didn’t bother to ask what was happening and/or assumed he could get the Senate to do his dirty work - or was he played by the Senate because everyone is tired of his incompetence as speaker of the house?
  19. Where was the house where a half-naked woman was chained outside? Why, that house is smack-dab in the middle of a neighborhood that did not believe in kink shaming.
  20. So…. you’re saying I should’ve gone with the playful sea monkeys?
  21. chicken with the fake news propaganda post
  22. I sold everything and invested in a chinchilla Ranch. Soon, I’ll be sitting on the beach making 20%.
  23. T Tom fapping to Kelly it’s going to be more difficult now.
