Thanks. Now I don't feel so much like a total idiot.

You know people in glass houses should not throw stones...

I heard that the first day he started complaining. Other than just a couple days ago I didn’t know that either but apparently those in the know always have known.

Widely known obviously didn't include me. Makes sense though.

It’s widely known that courts do that intentionally to keep all parties involved awake,jurors,defendants etc.

So the Fat ass cry baby can whine all he wants.

And sanctimonious finger waggers to a fault.

Everyday he complains about the cold. Why doesn't he just add a vest or sweater to his suit?

@joncoopertweets
A feeble and increasingly paranoid Trump complains that somebody is purposely keeping him cold in court: “We have another day in court, in a freezing courthouse. It’s very cold in there, on purpose I believe.” 🙄

My God. These people are just awful.

Besides Trump, Rudy Giuliani.

UW and USC played each other last year so Williams has seen Odunze up close!

I know, I was salivating over his films. So too, I'll bet, is Caleb Williams.

Potential Bears First-Rounders Make the Motown Rounds

Potential Bears QB Caleb Williams and receiver Rome Odunze flew out together from L.A. to Detroit and settled in for the draft.

Williams and Odunze were part of a group of draft prospects who participated Wednesday in an event supporting Special Olympics athletes. The NFL, Unified Flag Football Detroit and Special Olympics Michigan combined to put on a program where the prospects taught athletes of different sills levels basic flag football and practiced with them.

"It was great, I had a blast," Williams told reporters at the Corner Ballpark in Corktown. "I don't know if ya'll were watching, but I had a blast. I was out there running routes, throwing it, defending.

"Just all-around athlete around these kids. It was great to be around them, it seemed like they had a great time."

As for the upcoming draft, Williams said he's prepared for the big moment when he goes on stage with commissioner Roger Goodell.

"As a kid, I did dream of this," Williams said. "I set my goals, went after it, I got it, I' here, I'm ready for the moment.

"I've been preparing mentally for it and obviously physically, I put myself in the position to do it."

Odunze made an appearance with The Rich Eisen Show and explained both how he and Williams had wound up flying out together. It wasn't planned in advance he said.

"It was from L.A.," the Washington wide receiver said. "We flew out from L.A. and we just happened to be on the same plane and he tweeted that he seen me on the plane, said he was a big fan.

"So I had to also let people know that I was also going to get him to Detroit safely."

Odunze had to admit they had talked about the possibility both could wind up together with the Bears. Odunze would be the ninth pick, if he hasn't been selected already or if the Bears decided not to trade back.

There is more to it than fans on the internet getting excited about seeing the two together on social media. Odunze, like Williams, had a top-30 visit at Halas Hall.

They shared a flight to Detroit but what are the chances @RomeOdunze and @CALEBcsw end up leaving the #NFLDraft Thursday night together as #DaBears teammates?#NFL pic.twitter.com/YxHIEZnC9R

— Rich Eisen Show (@RichEisenShow) April 24, 2024
"It went well," Odunze told Eisen. "I thought there was a sense of winning in the air and a sense that, you know, they were going to make things happen and that the team was prepared to go all the way and I think I could be a vital piece in that.

"They're looking to add a few weapons for Caleb or some protection for him. So it was a good visit."

The last comment might have been a key. The Bears aren't talking about what they want to do at No. 9 and this sounded like information from someone who was there and talking to their decision makers.

They got a great one! He is so athletic.

Seriously screwed up,,,,the birth rate is down, which is not good for any country and the Repubs are terrified of using immigration to keep the country growing and then punishing women/families at the same time....makes no sense

Women are dying. Women are losing their ability to have children. MAGAts are so insane that both women and men are deciding on tubal ligation and vasectomies to take control of their lives away from demented politicians.

Looks like SCOTUS are going to delay action on the Immunity issue.....I'm kind of amazed that SCOTUS has so much power in Government since they are not part of the democratic process ....they seem to be acting as a Monarchy

This is going to cause a major mad from Trumpty

@kaitlancollins
Judge Merchan has scheduled the next hearing on whether Trump violated his gag order for next Wednesday at 2:15 p.m. Trump was scheduled to hold a campaign event in Waukesha that afternoon and another in Freeland, Michigan that night. TBD how they change the schedule.

In some ways I hope this drags on so there is not enough time for RepubConservatives to do damage control....but again I hope enough folks care about women's rights to get this right the sooner the better before people die from these laws

George Will wakes up to see his monster

20 April 2024
Washington Post

Some gems and dead-on accusations by George Will

Stoking the passion that is their excuse for pandering - the nihilism of a febrile minority in their party - a majority of House Republicans - voted last Saturday to endanger civilization. Hoping to enhance their political security in their mostly safe seats, and for the infantile satisfaction of populist naughtiness (insulting a mostly fictitious “establishment”), they voted to assure Vladimir Putin’s attempt to erase a European nation.

N.B:
A simple majority - 216 of all votes - was needed for passage.
On Ukraine: 311 - 112. All 112 were Republicans.

Voted to endanger civilization. Voted to enhance their political security. Voted to assure the erasure a European nation.

Will then goes on to add:

"Tuesday’s Senate ratification of Ukrainian aid proves that Dwight Eisenhower’s baton of Republican internationalism was passed, via Ronald Reagan, to Mitch McConnell."

Awwww. Give yourself some credit, George! You were there flogging the myth of the purity and sureness of Republican governing along the with the rest of the Reich-wing media, feeding the Reich's army of Armageddon-craving, gullible, imbeciles.

And Reagan. It all points back to Reagan. Nixon being dead. That must have hurt George, because in the 1980's he regularly burnished Reagan's balls to a high sheen.

The wind-up:

"We have defined heroism so far down that it encompasses Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) allowing a House vote on assisting Ukrainians’ resistance to indiscriminate bombardments of population centers, ethnic cleansing, rape, torture and the abduction of children."

And by "We", he means "Republicans." 112 Republicans VOTED to look the other way on bombardments, ethnic cleansing, rape, torture, and the abduction of children.

Millions Cancel Subscriptions to National Enquirer After Learning Its Stories May Not be True

NEW YORK (The Borowitz Report)—In a development that has rocked the news industry, The National Enquirer has lost millions of subscribers amid revelations that some of its stories might not be factual.

After Donald J. Trump’s hush money trial exposed the Enquirer’s inner workings, the newspaper’s reputation for unimpeachable journalism suffered a severe blow, media insiders say. Harland Dorrinson, an Enquirer subscriber for over thirty years, said discovering that the weekly periodical was not a dependable information source was “a gut punch.” “In a complex and confusing world, I always felt that there was one news outlet that could make sense of it all,” he said. “That’s been stolen from me.”

If the Enquirer distorted its coverage to support Trump’s election in 2016, Dorrinson wondered, “Does that mean Hillary Clinton wasn’t really dying? Or that she didn’t delete emails from her multiple lesbian lovers? Or that Bill Clinton didn’t have a sex romp in a pickup truck that was caught on video? Now I don’t know what to believe.”

The longtime subscriber said that the Enquirer’s sudden loss of credibility would force him to seek reliable reporting elsewhere, adding, “I guess I’ll give Fox a shot.”

So now we're having trump demanding our congress to help him scam America. I guess it's the next conspiracy theater Comer, Jorden, MTG, and Faux News can rant and rave about.

One would expect him to pull out all the stops to delay the inevitable plunge as he grifts his billions, which isn't to far away. The republican congress helping this stench do it doesn't really surprise me either.

Some of the smartest people I know don't have a great deal of formal education. In fact, many of them have better bullshit detectors than your average MBA.

As for being a bad state to raise a child, generational poverty is a terrible thing made even worse by the exodus of the few industries that existed in Appalachia. I imagine most who live in Kentucky feel trapped.

Years back I worked in NYC with a woman who grew up in West Virginia. One day I showed her a magazine ad that was trying to entice businesses to open up shop in WV. There were pictures of nature that were just gorgeous. I showed the ad to the WV native and she said "some parts of the state are really pretty, but believe me you do not want to live there."

To be fair to Gym, I don't think anyone claimed that Jordan witnessed the molestation. Several of the college wrestlers say they went to Jordan to report the molestation and Jordan did nothing.

Giuliani and Meadows Among Trump Pals Charged in Arizona’s 2020 Election Probe

PILING ON

Seven attorneys and aides were indicted in total Wednesday.

An Arizona grand jury indicted seven attorneys and aides linked to Donald Trump’s 2020 presidential campaign on Wednesday, including his onetime Chief of Staff, Mark Meadows, and his former lawyer, Rudy Giuliani.

The felony charges are tied to their alleged efforts to overturn Joe Biden’s victory in the state and have Trump be named winner—despite him losing the state by 10,000 votes.

The state’s attorney general announced the indictments, which were obtained by The Daily Beast. Others charged alongside Meadows and Giuliani were Jenna Ellis, a Trump campaign lawyer; John Eastman, a Trump lawyer who presented him with the now-infamous “coup memo,” which included a roadmap to implementing the fake elector plot and overturning the election; Christina Bobb, a Trump lawyer; Boris Epshteyn, a top campaign adviser; and Mike Roman, a campaign aide.

Also charged was Kelli Ward, the Arizona GOP leader during the 2020 election and the immediate aftermath, who regularly parroted election lies.

Trump was not charged, but the indictment lists him as an unindicted co-conspirator.

“We conducted a thorough and professional investigation over the past 13 months into the fake electors scheme in our state,” Attorney General Kris Mayes said in a video statement. “I understand for some of you today didn't come fast enough. And I know I’ll be criticized by others for conducting this investigation at all. But as I’ve stated before, and will say here again today, I will not allow American democracy to be undermined.”

News of the indictment surfaced just hours after Giuliani, Ellis, Meadows, and Trump himself were named unindicted co-conspirators in a Michigan case concerning that state’s fake elector scheme.

Trump’s allies reportedly came up with a seven-state scheme to subvert the Electoral College and turn the election in his favor, in which Arizona—and its 11 electoral votes—was among the most important battleground states.

Michigan, Georgia, Nevada, and now Arizona have all charged at least some of those who participated in their respective fake elector schemes, while an investigation is ongoing in Wisconsin. Prosecutors in New Mexico and Pennsylvania announced they would not bring charges on the matter.

Yikes! More indictments

Michael Ian Black: Trump Diapers Would Be a MAGA Phenomenon

YUGER THAN TRUMP STEAKS

My business advice to the ex-president, who’s having a tough time sitting all day in the courtroom.

Michael Ian Black

Illustration by Elizabeth Brockway/The Daily Beast

Dear (former, best ever) President Donald Trump,

We’ve had our disagreements over the years, some of them pretty bigly. But if there’s one important lesson you’ve taught me, it’s that we should never let personal grievances, ethics, or the law stand in the way of a good business opportunity.

As your legal fees continue to mount by the millions, your Truth Social stock tanks, and the bond for your $454 million judgment for sexually assaulting E. Jean Carroll is rejected (so unfair!)—now’s the perfect time to explore a new income stream that can capitalize on the attention you’re getting over rumors you’ve been audibly farting in the courtroom during your first-ever criminal trial.

Now, I know these are unconfirmed, uncorroborated rumblings, but even if it’s not true, own it! As your former spokesperson, John Barron, knew, all PR is good PR. And, believe me, when you hear this pitch, I think you might shit yourself—pun VERY much intended.

Here it is: “Diaper Don’s Soundproof Adult Undergarments.”

Think about it. You’re an adult (chronologically, if not temperamentally), you wear diapers, and you fart a lot. In a quiet courtroom, that kind of constant, audible flatulence could turn a sympathetic juror into a Soros-controlled globalist puppet.

We can stop that from happening.

And can’t you just picture the commercial?

An American flag waving in the breeze, the first stirring notes of the Star Spangled Banner featuring the Jan. 6 Prison Choir (such a great song, sir, brought tears to my eyes). The scene is majestic, awe-inspiring. Then, out of nowhere, somebody rips one, almost ruining the magnificent, some say better-than-the-original song.

Enter YOU, possibly arriving via escalator, looking like a modern-day Winston Churchill, but much more muscular and virile and without the phony-baloney accent.

It’d go something like this:

“I’m President Donald Trump. Whether I’m on the golf course or in a courtroom run by a totally conflicted and disgraced judge, there are times where I just let it rip.

“Sometimes I even shart a little.

“I need an adult diaper that’s as tough and patriotic as me. That’s why I’ve created Diaper Don’s Soundproof Adult Undergarments.

“They not only absorb the weird stuff down there, they’re also equipped with my patented fart-baffling diaper technology. No other brand can match this very strong, very powerful system for neutralizing the sounds of even the juiciest, wettest fluffer doodles.

“The secret: gold!”

(Note: the secret isn’t really gold. It’s styrofoam. But we’ll paint it gold. Those idiots won’t know the difference.)

“Using the same state-of-the-art technology that made Trump Sneakers the best-selling shoe in history, my Trump Diapers will get you through a rough day in court, or the boardroom, or the back nine at Bedminster, where I am club champion 10 years running.

“Diaper Don’s Soundproof Adult Undergarments: for when you’re shitting yourself because you might go to jail after falsifying business records, obstructing justice, stealing classified documents, and attempting to overturn a presidential election.”

So…

What do you think?

Yes, the tagline is a little ungainly, but it’s hard to fit almost a hundred felony charges into a pithy catchphrase. Did you have to commit so many crimes?!? (Allegedly, lol.)

Also, I admit that adult diapers aren’t the world’s most glamorous product, but that’s where the Trump magic comes in. Who else but you could turn an embarrassing medical condition into a goldmine? Sleepy Joe Biden? Please—that guy’s too busy governing, like a nerd.

If anybody can turn this idea into a hit, it’s you. After all, your doubters probably thought nobody would pay thousands upon thousands to attend a fraudulent university, either.

Maybe you worry selling adult diapers will “damage your reputation.” The good news—not possible! Your reputation is already as soiled as the inferior adult diaper you’re currently wearing.

Look, you’ve already demonstrated time and again that there are no limits to how far you will debase yourself for a buck, so why not sink just a little bit further? The haters already hate you and the big, burly men who tear up in your presence will appreciate a personal hygiene product emblazoned with your name and face strategically placed right where a star could grab it.

Now, I know you’ve got a lot on your plate right now, but in between one of your courtroom naps, maybe you could look over the prospectus I’ve prepared. Don’t worry, it’s mostly pictures!

Feel free to respond via The Daily Beast. I promised them a cut of the proceeds, but I’m going to screw them over just like the Master taught me to do. Former President Trump, I think this could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship, at least until you inevitably sue me.

.

And when it comes to the vote Trump would be worse for the Palestinians. That is one of the key points every one of the well meaning student protesters need to fully understand. The protests are legitimate and fine. The vote in Nov. will be legitimate and fine.

All must fully understand and appreciate that the protests and the vote are two independent events.

And that in the end Trump would be far worse for Palestinians of the West Bank and Gaza.
