It's beyond the pale for ANYONE.  This is full on psychotic bullshit.  These people, the MILLIONS OF THEM, are completely broken.  I fully blame social media.  Our species is not built to handle this much information, true or not.  We are dumb monkeys and we have found out how to break ourselves.

Social media has helped them coalesce around central ideas and gather, but the racism was already there.

No idea what's up with the right clown shoe or the "sword" that's swinging from his side and how it's attached to him.

Oh shit, I didn't notice that.  I noticed that his pants come to an inexplicable point just above his kneecap for no apparent reason.  But yeah, it's probably "depth" or whatever the art term is between his two shoes.  But his legs suggest a gait that shouldn't have his feet that far apart to cause such a juxtaposition in shoes.  But that right foot looks like my youngest's church shoes for toddlers.  And his left shoe looks like that photo of those Mexican dudes in the long, pointy tejano boots.  

Shit, anybody here good at photoshop?

Isn't that a public threat of blackmail? From a former US president?

From USLegal.com:

Quote

State laws vary, but the following is an example of a state blackmail statute:

"21-3428. Blackmail.

Blackmail is gaining or attempting to gain anything of value or compelling another to act against such person's will, by threatening to communicate accusations or statements about any person that would subject such person or any other person to public ridicule, contempt or degradation.

Blackmail is a severity level 7, nonperson felony"

What would mitigate a charge of blackmail against Trump? McCarthy saying, "ahh, he was only kidding. I love the guy."? How much vomit will a lap dog lap up?

Look, I don't know the ins and outs of blackmail law.  I know blackbird law.  Mainly, just bird law.  

But every time I see that quote, I just read "Interesting Leak Videos" and just assume it's a movie of Ivanka pissing on somebody for cash.

Our jokes aside, DeSantis' best play is in all actuality, some version of this.  

"Look, we're in unchartered waters...I should know, I was raised inside Tampa Bay.  This is largely political, and I'll leave it to the courts and President Trump to sort out.  But by refusing extradition, all I would be doing is stretching out this ruse for months.  And that plays right into the Democrats hands, they want to have this hanging over our party and our country for as long as possible.  We are not necessarily cooperating, but we are going to get out of the way and let President Trump refute these ridiculous charges, and do so on the record.  We're not going to entertain another FBI raid charade of Mar-a-Lago, that just gives the Democrats more political theater to exploit.  I'm going to let the grownups figure this out in a courtroom, which I know from my early days as a court attorney.  If there is any justice left in this once great country, President Trump will have these laughable charges dropped and we can all move on to the more pressing issues our country is facing.  Thank you."  

Wow, that would be a lucid way to handle this, so yeah, that's not going to happen.  I think it's more apt that he will say something along the lines of, "I can't get involved with this because I have to deal with the woke mob attempting to take control of SeaWorld and the gays that are taking over Medieval Times.   If we don't start banning more books and curtailing university level research the woke mob is going to make us all gay.  Check me out on Tucker tonight!"

Yeah, I'm no artist by a damn sight.  But the left front paw looks like a rejected Dr. Seuss illustration of a lion's paw.  And the right front paw looks like Marjorie Taylor Greene's foot after a day at the beach.

Yeah, I see the satirical name.  But anything with a Trump logo and the phrase, "Leak Interesting Videos" is still gonna conjure up images of either Ivanka pissing on European men.  Melania pissing on european men.  Or Trump getting pissed on.  Sorry, that's just how my demented brain works.

I recall reading Revelations as an adult. Concluded that most of the apocalyptic scenarios to come were based on mere extreme weather events — which they had no science and satellites to explain.

Just think: If there had only been a Weather Channel, millennia of history might different!

So his legal team is attempting to quash the grand jury report in Atlanta.  Now I am not a legal person, but I'm pretty sure that this has zero chance of working.  Wouldn't the appellate court basically say that the potential defendant gets to make this argument in court proceedings post indictment?  If I am reading this correctly, does this mean they are trying to appeal an indictment prior to it even being filed?

Dear Judge Bragg,

We need your testimony regarding your obviously politically motivated Trump investigation to determine if this whole investigation is politically motivated.

Perpetually Outraged,

The GOP

P.S. LOCK HER UP!!!

It was an incredibly horrific crime, but it happened to one kid, and as a result of the wall-to-wall coverage on the cable networks and even the nightly news (which started feeding off of cable news), it changed parenting forever in this country.

Case in point - Bizzy Bone was rescued after the babysitter saw a picture of him during a rebroadcast of the movie Adam. That's great, but his abductor was not a stranger. It was his stepfather. 

Posting because jam

Seems odd to me that in this extremely rare circumstance where a secret service protectee is indicted for a felony that the secret service wouldn't be granted the power and responsibility to take that person into custody and extradite them. That's already what the secret service does, they take high profile targets and move them around safely.

They'll be able to escort him during every step from extradition, to transportation around Manhattan, to booking, to arraignment.  There's no precedent for this for a POTUS.  But Governors have had their security detail all the way with them during arrest, adjutants have been with general/flag officers during arrest, I'm sure security protocol and overtures have been made and dissected.  Also, if you're the booking officer...please please please...forget to seize his phone and boost the repeaters near his waiting area.  I cannot fucking to read the batshit lunacy he posts while waiting for processing.

Shit, is that was the burning sensation was?  I thought it was 'cause I ordered extra spicy tenders.  

I wonder what Trump is gonna eat tonight at Mar-a-Lago for dinner before heading off to Manhattan?  McDonald's?  Hamburger deconstructed?  Ivanka's taint?

It’s not a crime if you do it out in the open in front of everybody.

There's gonna be tens of thousands of bumbling morons just stumbling around Lower Manhattan and Chinatown tomorrow.  Good lord, the grift opportunities.  
 

Kinda bummed out though.  Tomorrow is the first ever International Day of Play at the Texas Capitol.  Was gonna take the kids after school for all kinda cool fun outdoor shit like pickleball, gel blaster, yoga, spike ball, live music, etc.  Well my friend at the Capitol says they are quietly gaming out what to do in case of pro-Trump protestors who can't be in New York come to the Capitol to show their anger.  I don't want my kids around those monsters.  Way to go assholes!

Gym Jordan and his merry band of GQP fucksticks are requesting Manhattan DA's testimony to muddy the waters of any investigation/indictment of Trump.

https://www.cnn.com/2023/03/20/politics/house-republicans-letter-manhattan-district-attorney/index.html

Quote

Three key House GOP chairmen took the extraordinary step on Monday of seeking to intervene in an investigation into Donald Trump ahead of potential criminal charges the former president may face. The move underscores the lengths House Republicans are going to try to defend Trump ahead of a potential indictment, even as they acknowledge they don’t know the full scope of any potential charges.

The three chairmen – House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan, House Oversight Chairman James Comer and House Administration Chairman Bryan Steil – sent a letter calling for testimony from Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and criticizing his investigation into Trump as an “unprecedented abuse of prosecutorial authority.” It’s the latest effort by House Republicans to try to muddy the waters ahead of the possibility that Trump could become the first former president ever to be indicted.

Jordan in an interview with CNN defended his call for Bragg to testify about the ongoing probe into Trump, and argued that Trump didn’t commit a crime — all while acknowledging he didn’t know the full scope of potential charges.

“We want Mr. Bragg to come in and testify — come in for a transcribed interview and we want the communications that took place between his office and DOJ. So, we’ve asked for all that information,” he told CNN.

The three chairmen write that they intend to investigate whether Bragg and his office used federal public safety funds as part of its grand jury investigation into a hush money scheme involving adult film actress Stormy Daniels.

“Your decision to pursue such a politically motivated prosecution … requires congressional scrutiny about how public safety funds appropriated by Congress are implemented by local law-enforcement agencies,” the chairmen wrote.

The letter comes after House Speaker Kevin McCarthy called on relevant committees to probe Bragg’s actions. McCarthy has admitted he has no knowledge of whether federal funds have actually been used for the probe, but has argued that’s why House Republicans need to investigate. The Manhattan DA’s office declined to comment Saturday on whether any federal funding has been used to support investigations into Trump.

Jordan, in the interview with CNN, accused the prosecutors of taking up the case only because Trump is running for president.

“And then what changed? President Trump announces he’s running for president and shazam now they’re going to do some bookkeeping error from seven years ago, it was a misdemeanor now. It makes absolutely no sense,” Jordan said.

But Jordan also acknowledged to CNN that he didn’t know what the possible charges are against Trump.

“We’re going with what you guys have told us,” Jordan said, referring to press reports.

Asked if he’s concerned Trump might have broken the law, Jordan said: “We don’t think President Trump broke the law at all.”

He also acknowledged not knowing of whether federal funding was used to support the New York probe.

“We’re asking,” he said.

Jordan, Comer and Steil also state they plan to probe whether potential legislative action is needed regarding “prosecutorial authority between federal and local officials.”

They also plan to consider other legislative action relating to the “authorities of special counsels and their relationships with other prosecuting entities,” claiming that the circumstances of Bragg’s investigation stem from Robert Mueller’s past special counsel investigation into whether Trump and his 2016 campaign colluded with Russia.

But some in the GOP are skeptical about the need for congressional action, and said Republicans should wait to see the possible indictment first.

“I’m going to wait until I hear more facts and read the indictment itself,” Rep. Don Bacon, a Nebraska Republican who represents a district President Joe Biden won, told CNN. “I have faith in our legal system. If these charges are political bogus stuff, and they may be, it will become clear enough soon.”

The letter comes two days after Trump announced he expects to be arrested in connection with that investigation. And it also coincides with the first full day of the House GOP’s annual policy retreat in Florida, where Republicans had hoped to focus on their legislative agenda but instead find themselves on defense over Trump.

The three chairmen also attack Bragg’s case as politically motivated, describing the basis of the investigation as “tenuous and untested.” They also take aim at Trump’s former personal attorney Michael Cohen, who has been a central figure in the grand jury investigation, writing that he has a “credibility problem.”

Jordan, Comer and Steil request Bragg turn over all documents and communications between the New York County District Attorney’s Office and the Justice Department relating to their investigation of Trump as well as materials sent or received by lawyers Carey Dunne and Mark Pomerantz, who formerly helped lead the Manhattan district attorney’s investigation into Trump’s business practices.

They also requested Bragg turn over all documents and communications relating to his office’s receipt and use of federal funds.

The chairmen requested Bragg schedule a transcribed interview with their committees and turn over the requested materials by March 23.
