Trump pleaded the 5th over 400 times on Wednesday in his deposition for NY AG Letitia James. Trump answered only one question. It seems that the only time Trump can keep his big mouth closed is under oath. smile

Republican House Rep. Michael Turner of Ohio stated:

Quote
There are a number of things that are classified that fall under the umbrella of nuclear weapons, but that are not necessarily things that are truly classified. Many of them you can find on your own phone as we stand here. And if they fall within that category, they're not an imminent national security threat that would rise to the level of you have to raid Donald Trump's home and spend nine hours there.
I took Turner at his word. Why would he lie or be hyperbolic? crazy

I called Iran and told them I can get nuclear stuff for them on my phone after I delete a couple hundred pictures of Rocksus to make room.

But it's hard to concentrate with all these black helicopters flying over my house.

Great concession speech by Liz Cheney:

Liz Cheney

Worth watching. I predict she's going to be someone very important in the Republican Party, if they ever come to their senses.

I was going to contribute to her campaign, then Roe happened, and Liz Cheney supported taking a woman’s right away over her own body - and I said, nope not now, you’re still a rights-taking Republican at the end of the day, Liz Cheney.

Not in today's Republican Party.

Certainly not by November. I was thinking more along the lines of 2024 or 2028. I think it's going to be a lot harder to be a Trumper when your guy is doing time in federal prison, and the courts offer to pay fraud victims settlements from Trump fraud class action suits.

I can't wait to see the late night commercials for that.

This has been a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad week (or two) for Trump. Today, especially. Weisselberg pleaded guilty, Rudy pleads the fifth - or drank it, whatever - and today the Grand Jury(ies) are hearing even more testimony. The DoJ has opened the vaults at the National Archives, his lawyers - that are yet unindicted - are testifying to the Grand Jury(ies), and co-conspirators are lining up (or being lined up) to testify against him. Lindsay, Kemp are being made to testify under oath... sigh, what's a nascent autocrat to do?


A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.

Here, as elsewhere, people are outraged at what feels like a rigged game -- an economy that won't respond, a democracy that won't listen, and a financial sector that holds all the cards. - Robert Reich
