It’s truly appalling to hear about the lenient sentence handed down to Jack Wade Whitton, the man who callously boasted about feeding an officer to a mob of Capitol rioters. The fact that he only received nearly five years in prison for such egregious actions is mind-boggling. Whitton’s violent behavior on January 6th, striking an officer with a metal crutch and dragging him into the chaos, is just a glimpse of the heinous crimes committed during the insurrection.
The fact that Whitton expressed remorse after getting caught doesn’t negate the severity of his actions. It’s clear that his so-called change of heart is merely a result of facing the consequences of his violent and traitorous deeds.… Continue reading
I can’t help but shake my head at the absurdity of the situation. A woman charged in a drunk driving crash that resulted in the deaths of two innocent children posting a $1.5 million bond is just mind-boggling. The fact that her attorney argued she only had a single glass of wine before the incident is hardly a valid excuse. How can a search warrant revealing her alcohol consumption trump a legitimate blood alcohol test? It seems like a feeble attempt to downplay the severity of her actions.
The defense attorney’s claim that Chidester drove to the boat club because she had been invited to the birthday party she later crashed into is equally troubling.… Continue reading
As I sit and reflect on the recent news about the New York Attorney General stating that the $175 million Trump fraud bond isn’t properly backed and should be voided, I can’t help but feel a mix of frustration and disbelief. I mean, how is it possible that someone like Trump, who has a history of financial fraud, can continue to manipulate the legal system to his advantage? It boggles the mind that he is allowed to get away with such blatant disregard for the law.
Reading through the various comments and reactions to this news, it’s clear that I’m not alone in feeling outraged by the lack of consequences for Trump’s actions.… Continue reading
It seems like every time I turn on the news or scroll through social media, there’s another headline about the former president, Donald Trump, throwing a tantrum because he feels like his right to speak has been taken away. The irony is not lost on me – a man who practically monopolized the airwaves during his time in office now feels oppressed because he can’t attack witnesses and jurors. The sheer audacity of this man is truly astounding.
As I read through the quotes and comments from the public, it’s clear that I’m not alone in my frustrations. The sense of entitlement that exudes from Trump is baffling.… Continue reading
As I read the heartbreaking news about the LAPD officer who will not face criminal charges in the killing of a 14-year-old girl at a store during a police confrontation with a suspect, I feel a surge of anger and frustration. The sheer injustice of the situation is mind-boggling, to say the least. The fact that a young life was senselessly taken and no one is being held accountable for it is beyond comprehension.
The excuse that there wasn’t enough time to assess the situation and that it was a “tragic but unforeseeable accident” is nothing short of an insult to our intelligence.… Continue reading
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
The first criminal trial of a former president begins on Monday, and the anticipation is palpable. The mere idea of Trump facing the consequences of his actions has sparked a range of emotions within me. From excitement to skepticism, I can’t help but wonder what twists and turns will unfold in the courtroom.
With 34 felony charges hanging over his head, the possibility of Trump facing jail time is no longer a far-fetched dream. The notion that no one is above the law is being put to the test, and it’s about time. My hope is that justice will prevail and that Trump will be held accountable for his actions, regardless of his status as a former president.… Continue reading
As a society, we have reached a point where the ultra-wealthy seem to operate by an entirely different set of rules. The recent news of billionaire Leonard Leo rejecting a Senate subpoena over supreme court gifts is just another example of the blatant indifference to the law displayed by the ruling class. It’s almost as if being a billionaire automatically grants you immunity from accountability. The fact that a congressional subpoena is now being treated as optional if you have enough money is a troubling reflection of the state of our government and justice system.
The issue of billionaires defying government orders brings to light the stark reality that there is a double standard at play in our society.… Continue reading
The New York appeals court has dealt another blow to Donald Trump’s legal team by rejecting his third attempt to delay the start of his hush money trial. The former president’s lawyers have been scrambling to postpone the trial, arguing that he should be out on the campaign trail rather than defending himself in court. It’s baffling to see the audacity with which Trump and his team continue to try and delay the inevitable.
Trump contends that he is immune from prosecution for conduct alleged to involve official acts during his time in office. However, his lawyers have not raised this as a defense in the hush-money case.… Continue reading
As I sit down to contemplate the sentencing of the US woman who stole Ashley Biden’s diary and the consequent one-month prison term she received, I can’t help but feel a sense of irony and injustice lingering in the air. The fact that the woman attempted to sell the stolen diary to Donald Trump’s presidential campaign, only to be rejected and then resort to approaching Project Veritas, is a testament to the lengths people would go to for personal gain or political motives.
I find it perplexing that the woman, Harris, initially sought house arrest as her punishment, only to later face the repercussions of her own actions and end up behind bars.… Continue reading

‘They’ve Taken Away My Right to Speak,’ Trump Says While Ranting to Reporters – The former president got very mad about his inability attack witnesses and jurors before reportedly dozing off in court again
