Denied


Perhaps he'll have better luck with "his judges" at SCOTUS.

Missouri AG bullshit

Missouri filed a lawsuit against the state of New York on Wednesday seeking to lift the gag order imposed against former President Trump during his hush money trial.

[...]

“I will not sit idly by while Soros-backed prosecutors hold Missouri voters hostage in this presidential election. I am filing suit to ensure every Missourian can exercise their right to hear from and vote for their preferred presidential candidate,” Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey (R) wrote in a statement to The Hill.

  The Hill
Oh, for fuck sake.

Is he hoping to be a part of a Trump administration, or what? Trump's gag order does not prevent him from anything but attacking people involved in his trial. And even if it prevented him from saying anything at all about anything at all, nobody believes Missouri voters are waiting to hear from him before they vote.

Trump trials

Trump has lost his gag order appeal.



Michael Cohen got back on the stand to continue direct by prosecution.


Except it wasn't okay for Cohen.  He went to prison.

Worry.






There are a number of posts essentially detailing the same thing: Trump's lawyer quoting disparaging remarks Cohen made about Trump.  I don't see how that's going to be a winner for the jury.  After a couple, they get the idea, no need to feed them insults they might find amusing.  (Like Captain von Shitzinpantz.)  Maybe he should have left the jury with the times he quoted Cohen praising Trump.

Or this exchange...








Speaker of the House Mike Johnson went to New York to attend the royal court, as well.




Well, it's meant to, but it very obviously doesn't.



I read speculation they'd probably call an expert on New York law to explain how Trump's hush money payments could become a criminal charge, but perhaps the prosecutors don't think that will be hard to get across.  Especially since there are two lawyers on the jury.



Set the tone - low.  Gonna guess that was not a jury pleaser, either.

UPDATE 07:27 am:


They each want to be Trump's VP pick.  He loves making them perform before he dumps on them.

Meanwhile in Manhattan



Well, that's gonna leave a mark.





Also...we're still waiting for Merchan's decision on the gag order violation.



As is that.


Trying to keep his fingerprints off the deal.

The gag order hearing



An alternate way of saying that is: I'll do what I'm doing until somebody makes me stop.








So, we wait for a ruling.  Updates will be here.
