So the Big Orange Turd, who has spent the week whipping up violence towards government officials who are investigating him, is having a campaign event tonight in WACO, TEXAS. This comes on the 30-year anniversary of the Waco siege. But he's in no way trying to whip up anti-government, right-wing extremists and militias to commit violence to protect him.

Former prosecutor Karen Agnifilo says that posts made by former President Donald Trump that attacked Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, the head of the office investigating payments to former adult film actress Stormy Daniels, are crimes and its a matter of whether Trump will get charged with them.

China's offramp to zero Covid was about as smooth as a plane landing on its nose. There were seemingly no policies or preparations made to move from almost constant lockdowns to no Covid restrictions at all, and millions paid for it with their lives. Watch this episode of China Uncensored for what detailed plans officials were given to avoid this disaster, why China isn't reporting its Covid death toll, and how the CCP used protests as an excuse to lift zero Covid.

Saw a clip from one of those countless right-wing web channels. Some guy says that Alvin Bragg needs to be arrested for treason and election interference, and that a citizen's arrest may be justified. The person interviewing him is Christina Bobb, Trump's lawyer (or maybe former lawyer?) who is involved in the classified documents case. What was her reaction? She was giggling with excitement.
Half this country is freaking nuts and January 6 was just dress rehearsal for something much worse to come. _________________ ¡Hala Madrid!

Yep, as was warned at the time if those responsible weren't swiftly and appropriately prosecuted. It's pretty much inevitable that we will experience something that makes Jan. 6th look tame. _________________ You thought God was an architect, now you know

That's the direct result of legitimizing Trump's crimes by buying too cowardly to actually prosecute them within a reasonable time frame. The door is now wide open for those on the right to state than any indictments are purely political at this point, as we can see happening. _________________ You thought God was an architect, now you know

It's cowardice. I feel it in my own profession.
I always feel better if there is precedent. Especially when it is a huge decision.
And there is no precedent for Trump's illegality. Prosecutors/investigators aren't brave enough to do something that's never been done.
Trump appears to be above the law. Potentially for life. And setting precedent for all future GOP Presidents. _________________ "Every hurt is a lesson, and every lesson makes you better”

It isn't just that conservatives are anti-abortion and misogynist. They're also anti-science and anti-physicians, and it seems to stem all from their obsession with that stupid children's book that stars Jesus Christ.

This protest is a continuation of demonstrations going on for months across the country.

Quote:
Former National Security Advisor to President George W. Bush and author of “Hand-Off: The Foreign Policy George W. Bush Passed to Barack Obama” Stephen Hadley joins Andrea Mitchell to react to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s postponement of his judicial overhaul, which fueled months-long mass protests across Israel. “Rather than come up with a short term solution, I think they need an actual process to develop, over time, a consensus behind a solution that can be embraced by the Israeli public, will get them out of this crisis, will get people back into their homes, and address the concerns in a way that is supported by a broad consensus among Israelis,” Hadley says. “That's where they need to go. I think just tossing up compromised proposals at this point isn't going to do it. They need a process.”

Good to know. I really think Trump can avoid all arrests. DOJ is sleeping at the wheel also...
it seemed like a lot of talking heads were suggesting he isn’t the first indictment out of the gate because it was the least offensive and he should sit back. He should sit on it until Georgia comes out. Probably not a factor but it was certainly a talking point _________________ Kobe.
