I don’t know about you, but I can’t stand the sight of MAGA lawmakers mindlessly repeating Trump’s lies that Biden was “behind” the Manhattan DA’s prosecution; that Juan Merchan, the judge who presided so fairly over the trial, was “conflicted;” that Trump’s election expert

Hakeem Jeffries: 'Trump was entitled to the presumption of innocence. He received it. Trump was entitled to a trial by a jury by his peers. He received it. Trump was entitled to a vigorous defense. He received it ... that is an affirmation of the American judicial system'

This, by Alon Pinkas, is right that Dem leaders stabbed liberals in the back w/the invite to Bibi. But, they also shot themselves in the foot. They put politics ahead of morality. And they forgot who they were dealing with...a man who is openly playing for the other side.

💯... with a serious question, EJ Dionne : Is it harder or easier to do this effectively with the cornucopia of political parties/factions/coalitions (call them what you want)? For example, there are 38 groups in France with a list of candidates!

Can we finally, once and for all, dispense with the right wing spin that Trump's felony conviction will help him?

Yes! Say it with me: this. Will. Hurt. Him.👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

The problem with this argument is that Aileen Cannon literally owes her job as a federal judge to Donald Trump, which is a massively greater conflict of interest than Merchan's, but no Trump supporters argued that she should recuse itself.

Ridiculous & distorting to both-sides the prosecution of a private citizen, who’s never sought nor held public office, for an offense of no political content or consequence by placing it on hallucinated balance beam with Trump’s 34 felony convictions for fraud to swing election.

If you knew anything about this, you’d know that the FBI’s Trump-Russia investigation began before it had the Steele docs AND that Russia interfered in the election with its ops AND that Trump aided & abetted them by denying these ops were happening.

So much for the party of law and order. Tom Cotton is holding his nose so that Donald Trump can get his hands on the levers of power again. Ask yourself why? The ends justify the means to them. And the ends are taking away all of our personal freedom.

Wow, it's so clever and savvy when Republicans succeed in getting journalists to amplify pro-Trump deception and propaganda!

Team Trump was all singing from the same anti-rule of law hymnal when they defended him after his conviction. But here’s the interesting part: many of them weren’t American. They were our right wing enemies from across Europe. My latest.
