I am not surprised by anything the criminal in chief does. He is not only a detriment to the USA, he is a detriment to the entire human race! I hope that his bad diet takes it's toll!
Yes. We thought we were safe in NY. Think of it this way Don. When you commit your next crimine in NY (and you will . Leopards don't change their spots) hopefully Todd Blanche and.Emil.Bove will be sharing a cell at Rikers, and you won't find another attorney or firm to work for you. Maybe if you're lucky they'll send you to the prison where your good friend "Ghislaine" I wish her well" Maxwell" is. Only she probably wishes you dead too.Sleep.with one open at.all times.
When will people who took the oath to protect our Constitution actually start doing it? The FF-PINO and his Sidekick are traitors to our country and need to be adjudicated and tossed out on their butts. Put this together with The Disgrace from last Friday, anything President Musk does, plus — plus — ad nauseam, we can only hope our Legislative branch will finally step up and not be cowed by threats of being primaried (they might even be re-elected if they grew some ….). (imho)
Unfortunately Wendy, the Legislative branch forgot their oath to the Constitution as well; maybe never read it. Don't think the criminal ever did. And they won't grow some. Totally agree that the WH oafs are all traitors and need to be in prison, pronto. If this was 300 years ago with the Founding Fathers in charge, that is exactly where they'd be, with gallows being built.
We need to defend them, so they can continue to defend us. Next step is going on the offensive. "Pushback" isn't enough; I nominate that as the next word we can live without. If it, or they, or, he, or she is under attack by Donald Trump, they should be rallied around immediately.
Did Merrick.Garland receive Jack.Smith's second report about the Mar-a-lago case of stolen top secret documents? I still dream that Jack Smith went back to Europe and had copies of thumb drives with those reports in safe deposit boxes scatterd in different countries. Aren't there any "good" hackers that can get.to this stuff instead of bothering hacking my Ticketmaster account?
My God, can this nutcase get any crazier??? Now, Americans can't hire who they want as their lawyers, if it offends the criminal? Jack Smith is his own man; can hire who he wants. Trump is seriously deranged, scarily so. Belongs in Federal prison.
He belongs in a mental hospital if we still had them. In the maximum security section in solitary confinement for the most dangerous patients. I wouldn't even let him in a real prison population. He may make friends and influence people. No. Locked up and can't speak..he will go berserk.
As usual, that quote about "kill[ing] all the lawyers" is misused. The actual quote is "The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers", from Shakespeare's Henry VI. Why did the king say this? Because he regarded the lawyers as the only thing standing between him and absolute power.
Edith, you are also incorrect. The statement was made by the character Dick the Butcher to Jack Cade during Cade's Rebellion. Not the king. Poor little Henry VI was a mess but he as not that much of a mess. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Let%27s_kill_all_the_lawyers
Nice idea, but wouldn't do a thing, as Musk would convince supervisors to fire everyone. The ONLY thing is for Congress to get off of their dead butts and do their constitutional duty, and move against this criminal, incompetent oaf we have in the WH. And, I am SO sick of hearing his stupid press secy that "Americans voted for him". Hell no, I didn't, and will never do so.
There will be more. The one-day boycott was only the beginning, and mostly symbolic. They (Trusk and the system that props them up) can ignore the pocket change they lost from one day, even a one-time, one-week deal. But multiple, sustained ones? Two weeks? I wouldn't bet on it. They cave, more readily than we give them credit for.
Boycotts maybe don't get the press that strikes and mass rallies do, but they're harder to suppress, which makes them that much more effective. To paraphrase Yogi Berra, if people don't want to buy at Walmart (for example), nobody can force them. LOL- I'd love to see them try!
If we want Congresspeople & Senators to stand up in large groups & rein the President in, we first must be straightforward as to the real reason many of them don't: the proven risk to themselves & their families of physical violence at the hands of fervent Trump worshippers.
Drawing a mean Presidential tweet or even being primaried would not be enough to cause so many arguably normal people to follow this dangerous jack-ass so cravenly to such awful places, & in plain view of the voters, opinion columnists and historians.
We must deal with this situation openly & thoroughly; I sense a certain reluctance.
You're right, but it's even worse than that. Too many Democrats are reluctant to stand up too, as we've seen, including in my state and district, which is bright blue. Why? Because they benefit from the system themselves. Not everything about this is that simple, and politics is messy business in the best of times. But I've seen enough first hand, and had it confirmed by others' experience to state the above with confidence.
Jane Ann Hanson--I wrote the same above--I think it's existential--they have the deep-pocket means and access to expertise for building a fear machine like no other.
This is ridiculous, but I think Covington will survive. Government contracts likely represent a minuscule amount its business, and its lawyers have deep expertise that cannot be readily replaced.
I'm an up-close witness to that fact. I'd love to see them try to shut down DEI in my workplace. I'd want a front row seat to that one, so I could see Trump and his shysters get trounced!!
When his Grandfather got done with the Brothels in Canada during the gold rush, and went back to Germany to stay and get a wife, none of this would have happened had Germany accepted him back. I think of this so often in the last ten years.
And the Republicans excuse and rationalize and remain quiet. Total loyalty to a disloyal criminal. We will be studying and reaching for understanding of how America fell prey to this mass cult for generations.
Jen came up with the perfect name for the orange felon; president in name only (PINO).
Looking at all the time he is spending on his personal vendettas, such as this one, his daily executive time, his time at rallies and on TV, his golfing and the fact he seems to spend every weekend at MAL, he has no time to actually govern.
Who is actually running this country? Can't all be muskrat. Between ruining the federal government and making more children, shoveling our treasury funds into his companies and bank accounts, he doesn't seem to have the time, either.
Musk, and a big group of other very wealthy people have enough money, interest, and resources to build the kind of compliant mob bureaucracy whose only job is to do their biased, lawless, and hateful bidding.

It's bone chilling to read that T's saber rattling has worked to cow major NY law firms.

Thank you for reminding us of the concept of “words we can live without.” And “pushback” is a perfect example!
The one promise PINO has kept is his promise of retribution and revenge

I have the same dream. Somebody must have it.

Does the firm have a legal claim against Trump/the government?
He is a Pan Galactic asshole.
Gosh, Patrick, you nailed it!

Boy oh boy. Let's complain somemore. I mean really. Let's stomp our feet and yell and scream. Oh yeah, and don't forget pontificate.
Or, maybe, do something. STRIKE.

Absolutely. These huge legal firms could care less about what the illegals in the WH say or do to them. They've got plenty of business.
I'm an up-close witness to that fact. I'd love to see them try to shut down DEI in my workplace. I'd want a front row seat to that one, so I could see Trump and his shysters get trounced!!
It is not the government contracts but scaring away their big corporate clients that they are worried about.

So have I... Too bad that he was a draft dodger, just like his little orange grandson.
