I can’t help but feel a strange mixture of amusement and disbelief as the saga of Trump’s legal woes continues to unfold. The latest development, where his lawyer seems to be begging for mercy because they’re having difficulty coming up with the required bond, is nothing short of poetic justice. It’s like watching a high-stakes drama play out before our very eyes, with Trump at the center stage, desperately trying to cling on to whatever remains of his imagined empire.
The fact that Trump, who notoriously flaunted his wealth and success, might actually be struggling to come up with the money required by the court is just too rich to ignore.… Continue reading
As news breaks that Donald Trump has lost his bid to delay the $83.3 million judgment against him in the E. Jean Carroll defamation case, the internet is buzzing with reactions. For many of us, seeing Trump face accountability for his actions is a long-awaited moment of justice. This ruling marks a significant blow for the former president, who has a history of evading consequences for his behavior.
It’s astonishing to think that someone like Trump, who presented himself as a successful billionaire, is now struggling to come up with a relatively small amount of money. The image of his financial precariousness is a stark contrast to the persona he projected, creating a sense of poetic justice for all those he has wronged in the past.… Continue reading
Michael Sparks, 46, of Kentucky, made history as the first rioter to breach the Capitol building during the harrowing events of January 6, 2021. The image of him jumping through a shattered window following another rioter who smashed it with a stolen riot shield will forever be ingrained in our memories. It’s a relief to hear that a federal jury in Washington, D.C., convicted Sparks on all six charges he faced, including two felonies. Justice has been slow in coming, but it is finally here.
Emily Allen, the Justice Department prosecutor, described Sparks as the “tip of the spear” in the attack, breaching the Capitol less than a minute before senators were forced to evacuate the chamber to escape the angry mob.… Continue reading
Y’all need to stop freaking out. I feel like I died 10 years ago and every day that goes by the onion writes an article and it comes true. Because the law comes into effect July 1st, so the judge is following the laws currently in force, judge will consider the motion then. It’s amazing that only one lady is in jail for that entire deal. One of the biggest if not the biggest child and women being assaulted and passed around by the rich and elite and you don’t know one name and no one who did that to the girls is in jail.… Continue reading
I can’t help but shake my head at the latest news surrounding Trump and his legal battles. The fact that he’s scrambling to post a $100 million bond while appealing a staggering fraud penalty of $454 million is both baffling and laughable at the same time. It seems like he’s playing a game of financial maneuvering in a desperate attempt to avoid facing the consequences of his actions.
The audacity of Trump’s legal team to argue that he shouldn’t have to post the full bond amount because he’s supposedly so wealthy is honestly mind-boggling. It’s as if they believe that the rules don’t apply to him simply because of his financial status.… Continue reading
I am appalled by the recent decision of the Supreme Court to hear Trump’s immunity claim in the election interference case. It raises important questions about the principles of justice and the rule of law in our country. The idea that a former president could claim immunity and evade prosecution sets a dangerous precedent that undermines the very foundation of our democracy. If the highest court in the land rules in favor of Trump, it sends a message that no one, not even the president, is above the law.
The fact that the Supreme Court chose to review this case despite a clear rejection by the DC appellate court is troubling.… Continue reading
I have no answer. I find myself perplexed by the constant circus that seems to surround Trump and his loyal followers. The latest saga involving their “star witness” sinking their own case against Fani Willis leaves me shaking my head in disbelief. It is a spectacle of deception, delay, and distraction that seems to have no end in sight.
From what I gather, this whole charade was nothing but a desperate attempt to muddle the waters, sow doubt, and delay the inevitable. The lack of a solid case, the reliance on baseless accusations, and the blatant disregard for truth and justice are all too familiar tactics in the TrumpWorld playbook.… Continue reading
As I read about the horrific case of a woman accused of murdering her own three-year-old son in Durham, claiming that the Bible allowed her to cane him, I find myself grappling with a multitude of emotions. The sheer brutality and callousness of the act leave me feeling a mix of anger, sorrow, and disbelief. How could a mother, the very person tasked with nurturing and protecting her child, commit such a heinous crime?
The idea that religious beliefs could be twisted and manipulated to justify such abhorrent behavior is deeply unsettling. The Bible, a book considered sacred by millions around the world, should never serve as a justification for violence and cruelty, especially towards innocent and defenseless children.… Continue reading
The recent news of a judge denying Trump’s request to delay the enforcement of $355M fraud case penalties is truly a moment of accountability and justice prevailing. The judge’s firm stance against Trump’s attempts to evade consequences for his actions is a victory for those who believe in upholding the rule of law.
It is satisfying to see the judge’s response to Trump’s baseless request for a stay, reminding him that he has failed to provide any valid justification for delaying the penalties imposed on him. Trump’s audacity to insult the judge and his staff, coupled with his futile attempts to change the addresses of his business entities, only further highlight his lack of remorse for his fraudulent actions.… Continue reading
As I read about the Northwestern Law professor calling the $350M judgment against Trump the most ‘unjust’ act in US politics since Burr killed Hamilton, I can’t help but feel a sense of disbelief and frustration. The fact that this professor is also a co-chairman of the Federalist Society adds another layer to this perplexing statement. It is evident that there are individuals who will go to great lengths to defend and protect those in power, regardless of the crimes they commit.
The argument that this judgment against Trump is unjust is not only absurd but also dangerous. As a society, we must uphold the rule of law and hold individuals accountable for their actions, regardless of their status or influence.… Continue reading
