The recent news of prosecutors wanting Trump held in contempt of court for violating a gag order comes as no surprise to many who have been following the unfolding drama surrounding the former president’s hush money trial. It seems that Trump’s penchant for flouting rules and boundaries extends even to the legal system, where he has been accused of attacking witnesses and key figures in the case through social media posts. The willful disregard for the court’s orders is a brazen display of defiance that cannot go unaddressed.
Judge Juan Merchan’s warning to Trump about the consequences of not showing up for trial, including the possibility of arrest, highlights the seriousness of the situation.… Continue reading
As I sit and reflect on the tumultuous political landscape of the United States, the phrase “Convicted Felon Donald Trump” rings loudly in my mind. The mere thought of a former President of the United States facing trial for criminal acts sends a shiver down my spine. This moment in history, where the rich and powerful are held accountable for their misdeeds, is unprecedented and demands the attention it rightfully deserves. We are witnessing a pivotal moment where the justice system is finally catching up to those who have long exploited their positions of power for personal gain.
The prospect of writing “Four-time convicted felon Donald Trump” seems surreal, yet it signifies a beacon of hope that justice may finally be served.… Continue reading
Biden returns to the White House at short notice amid heightened tension between Israel and Iran. As I witnessed the presidential convoy pass through DC, shutting down roads and causing chaos, it became clear that something significant was unfolding. The reports of Iranian drones being launched towards Israel only added to the sense of urgency and unease in the air. The possibility of a large-scale conflict erupting in the Middle East is a sobering reminder of the volatile nature of geopolitics in the region.
The potential of the US being dragged into a war between Israel and Iran is a troubling prospect.… Continue reading
Governor DeSantis’ recent decision to sign a bill banning civilian boards from investigating police misconduct in Florida is a blatant disregard for the rights of citizens to hold their government accountable. The bill strips these oversight boards of their power, instead allowing local police chiefs to create their own “civilian oversight” boards, cherry-picked by the very entities they are meant to oversee.
The rationale provided by Governor DeSantis, suggesting that civilian review boards may have hidden agendas, is both absurd and disingenuous. By removing the ability for independent oversight of police conduct, the door is left wide open for potential abuse of power and lack of accountability within law enforcement.… Continue reading
It seems that the saga surrounding Donald Trump’s $175 million bond has taken an interesting turn with the revelation of the collateral. According to the joint statement by Trump and Knight Specialty Insurance Company (KSIC), the bond was collateralized by the $175,304,075.95 that Trump had placed in a Charles Schwab bank account. This revelation brings up some questions and suspicions that leave many scratching their heads.
If Trump had the entire amount in cash to provide as collateral, why didn’t he just pay the bond himself? The fact that it took so long to reveal the collateral and the questionable behavior surrounding the bond arrangement raises red flags about the legitimacy of the whole situation.… Continue reading
Representative Byron Donalds’ plea for potential jurors in Trump’s hush-money trial to vote “not guilty” is nothing short of jury tampering. It is concerning to see a member of Congress who is supposed to uphold the law and respect the due process of our justice system actively attempting to influence the outcome of a trial. Donalds’ blatant disregard for the rule of law and the integrity of the judicial process is appalling.
It is evident that Donalds, being a staunch MAGA supporter and a part of the Tea Party movement, has put his allegiance to Trump above all else. His history of questioning the legitimacy of the 2020 election and his aspirations for a Vice Presidential nod on Trump’s ticket only highlight his bias and lack of impartiality.… Continue reading
Clarence Thomas absent from US Supreme Court with no explanation. The news of Justice Thomas’s absence from oral arguments regarding the acceptance of illegal gifts has sparked a flurry of speculation and conspiracy theories. It is indeed perplexing that a member of the highest court in the land would not provide a valid reason for their absence, especially when the cases being discussed are of significant importance in determining the ethical standards of the judiciary.
The lack of transparency surrounding Justice Thomas’s absence raises questions about accountability and integrity within the Supreme Court. It is concerning that a justice who has accepted numerous gifts from wealthy Republicans, the very individuals who may have vested interests in the cases being discussed, would choose not to participate in the proceedings without explanation.… Continue reading
Did Trump fall asleep during his hush money trial? Well, it seems that the speculation around Sleepy Don’s behavior during the trial is causing quite a buzz on social media. Reports suggesting that Trump appeared to be asleep during key moments of the trial have garnered attention, with Maggie Haberman from The New York Times even commenting on his seemingly drowsy demeanor.
It’s interesting to note the double standards at play when comparing how Trump’s behavior is being received versus how it would be perceived if Joe Biden were in a similar situation. The criticism and scrutiny that would likely be directed at Biden if he were to fall asleep during a trial highlight the disparity in expectations between the two candidates.… Continue reading
Gettysburg, what an unbelievable battle that was. The Battle of Gettysburg. I mean, it was so much and so interesting and so vicious and horrible and so beautiful in so many different ways, it represented such a big portion of the success of this country. Gettysburg, wow.. I go to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, to look and to watch. And the statement of Robert E. Lee ― who’s no longer in favor, did you ever notice that? No longer in favor ― ‘Never fight uphill, me boys, never fight uphill.’ They were fighting uphill. He said, ‘Wow, that was a big mistake.’ He lost his great general, and they were fighting.… Continue reading
It’s truly astounding how the crowd of supporters outside Trump’s trial was so pitifully small. It seems that when you aren’t busing people in or paying them to be there, the reality is that only about 50 ‘randos’ bother to show up. These individuals seem to be exactly the bottom feeders and knuckle draggers you’d expect to find in a crowd supporting the former president.
Looking at the photos from the event, it’s disheartening to see the type of people who turned up. From the guy in the blue MAGA hat who looks like he enjoys a few racial slurs every day to the ones making white power hand gestures, it’s evident that these are not the kind of individuals Trump would associate with in any other part of his life.… Continue reading
