I watched some of this press conference. I didn’t see Trump as completely out of it. But he did seem tired. He said the same exact shit but with no energy or conviction.

Trump is committing the cardinal sin of television coverage. He’s boring.

Exactly. If he had real trouble with the name, the misspelling would vary. It’s just standard racism.

Trump is really worried about losing the incel vote now that he found out that even the incels hate JD Vance. Vance may be one of them in spirit, but they smell wannabe Nazi all over him.

Trump needs to reinforce his Nazi bona fides. That’s way more important than campaigning in swing states, and Trump is very smart. The smartest!

And he didn’t just protect one kid. The football coach, the manliest man in the entire school, was the faculty sponsor for the Gay Straight Alliance club that welcomed everyone. In the 1990s.

I watched a little to see if he was dropping Vance, but it was too low energy to stay interested. Sad!

Lina Khan should be the next attorney general.

Former CIA officer and U.S. Treasury special agent John Cassara spent much of his 26-year career investigating transnational money laundering. He said there is a self-defeating logic to the DEA targeting the drugs and the people that supply them rather than the financial networks.

”It’s easier to go after the product and it’s easier to go after the people than to go after the money,” said Cassara, who retired in 2006. “But that’s a huge mistake.”

Forget the money that fuels the drug trade and funds Chinese espionage. We have street-level dealers to put in jail for decades.

Testimony from an insider co-defendant is a game changer. I doubt we’re lucky enough that Trump personally led the effort, but I wonder about Rudy’s involvement. Who knows what others?

A new front of criminal liability just opened up. Maybe it’s time to reconsider loyalty versus personal freedom.

And never forget that Occupy ended in violence. A coordinated strike on all remaining major camps in the dead of night.

Trump’s “regurgitated” complaints about Loren Merchan’s work with Harris have already failed twice, including at the appellate level, and amount to little more than “overheated, hyperbolic rhetoric,” prosecutors added.

At some point, you have to quit filing the same garbage motion over and over again with slightly different details.

Get it to the floor and make them all vote on the record. That vote will haunt them in the post-Trump era. May even help shoot down some rising stars down the line.

Stable genius: “Vladimir Putin is a great friend of mine. We’ve been dealing with each other for several years. All you have to do to get a favor from Putin is agree to do 10 favors for him then suck his dick. That’s how business is done is Moscow, and I’m a businessman. The best many say.”

Could it be that people don’t want to pay money to strap advertising machines on their faces? Has the robotic Augustus Caesar LARPer lost touch with the common people?

No, it is the plebeians that are wrong.

Clearly, the VP of an 80-year-old presidential candidate isn’t a position that might come with some authority down the road. The Oval Office couches are perfectly safe.

Not only do immigrants pay more taxes, but they contribute more to the overall economy. Adding the value of one’s labor to the whole is a positive.

Meanwhile, extracting the value of others’ labor and using your ill-gotten wealth to fund systemic corruption diminishes and destabilizes the system as a whole.

Deport billionaires, not workers.

“Many fine people have told me that I was the blackest president in American history. It’s true, folks. And that’s why coloreds should vote for me instead of Laffin’ Kamindian. Did you know she’s half-Indian? What’s up with that? She’s also a FEMALE, in case you haven’t noticed. It’s a disgrace.”

“No! The innocent man cannot taste freedom while we appeal his innocence!” said the “public servant” Attorney General.

Why are they not releasing the couch sex tape? What are they hiding? Was there a loveseat involved?

It almost has to be Alec Baldwin doing Trump at the no-show debate. Recent complications aside, his impression has always been the definitive one.

Of course Boebert lost. She went into battle unarmed.
