After much searching and tapping into all of my contacts and their contacts and following up the leads, including going underground into the Q-a-verse, I’ve finally obtained a copy of the holy grail. It took awhile, I paid through the nose but I have definitely proven what the Steele Dossier alleged. It was a tough slog but someone had to do it.
Now, I’ll admit that listening to it is not the same as watching it but to be honest, if you close your eyes, listen to POOTWH’s voice with the forceful stream and his giggles of delight, you can picture it. And frankly, it makes your skin crawl. On top of that, it’s not just one woman, or two women but three that are bouncing on the bed and somehow coordinate their streams. Who knew?

12 jurors seated for Trump Organization tax fraud trial
By MICHAEL R. SISAK
24 mins ago
NEW YORK (AP) — It’s taken just three days to seat a jury of 12 people in the tax fraud trial of Donald Trump’s company — surprising even some people involved in the case who thought it would take at least a week to find an impartial panel in heavily Democratic New York City.
Five of the jurors were sworn in Thursday, joining seven who were picked Tuesday. Six alternates still need to be seated. That process is beginning anew Thursday and Friday with a second pool of potential jurors, but lawyers say they’re on track for opening statements on Monday.
The four men and eight women selected so far emerged from an exacting process, including a 32-part questionnaire and one-on-one questioning, designed to sift out candidates with immutable opinions about the Republican former president and his company, the Trump Organization.
The selected jurors were among the least vocal about Trump. Some admitted that they had opinions about him and his leadership, but vowed to set aside any personal thoughts and consider only evidence presented during the trial, which is taking place in state court in Manhattan.
Judge Juan Manuel Merchan has said the case — involving allegations that the Trump Organization helped some top executives avoid income taxes on compensation they got in addition to their salaries — will likely take about six weeks, meaning it could end in December.
Trump himself isn’t on trial and he isn’t expected to testify, but his name is sure to come up a lot.
Trump signed some checks at issue in the case. His name appears on memos and other evidence. Another company lawyer, Alan Futerfas, said he expected some witnesses will testify about conversations they’ve had with Trump.
Trump Organization lawyer William J. Brennan referred to the absent Trump as the “mist in the room.”
Prosecutors have said they do not need to prove Trump knew about the compensation scheme to get a conviction.
They argue the Trump Organization is liable in part because former finance chief Allen Weisselberg, who has pleaded guilty to taking $1.7 million in off-the-books compensation, was a “high managerial agent” entrusted to act on the company's behalf.
Weisselberg, whose perks included apartment rent, luxury cars and school tuition for his grandchildren, has agreed to testify as part of a plea deal that also includes several months in jail.
“This case is not about Donald Trump,” lead prosecutor Susan Hoffinger said.
As swift as jury selection has been, the process has also underscored just how tough it is to find anyone without at least something to say about Trump — especially in Manhattan, where 87% of voters in the 2020 election went with his Democratic rival, Joe Biden.
The challenge for defense lawyers, prosecutors and Merchan has been in figuring out which opinions are innocuous, which are disqualifying, and where to draw the line.
One juror made the cut after saying he thought Trump had been “acting a little crazy” and narcissistic as president.
Merchan reasoned that the man’s negative opinions of Trump were limited to his presidency and did not involve issues relevant to the case, such as his work as a businessman and his company. He denied a defense’s request to strike the man for cause, and the defense elected not use one of its limited number of peremptory challenges.
Other decisions were more clear cut.
A woman who said “Trump continues to lie to the American people that he won the 2020 election” and another woman who gave glowing endorsements of Trump and his company were both removed from consideration.
Then there was Noah Passer, a worker’s compensation lawyer, whose brutal honesty in revealing how he views Trump led to quick agreement amongst prosecutors and Trump Organization lawyers that he wasn't right for the jury.
“I absolutely hate him. I think he’s a liar and a scam artist and a bully. He’s a danger to our democracy, international stability and potentially humanity with his environmental policies,” Passer said during questioning in open court. “I think his university was a scam. His charity was a scam. He has problems with the truth.”
Brennan, the Trump Organization lawyer, was so amped to send Passer home that he mixed up his notes and started arguing against him when a different juror was still being considered. By the time they got to Passer, the sides had agreed on the 12 jurors who were seated, meaning he was up for consideration as first alternate.
Brennan called Passer the “most seething, openly hostile prospective juror" in the pool and said that it was a "no brainer” that he be removed.

Top national-security prosecutor joins Trump Mar-a-Lago investigation
National security law experts say prosecutors have amassed evidence that meets some key criteria for charging the former president
One of the Justice Department’s most experienced national security prosecutors has joined the team overseeing the intensifying investigation of classified documents at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home and private club, people familiar with the matter said.
National security law experts interviewed by The Washington Post say prosecutors appear to have amassed evidence in the case that would meet some of the criteria for bringing charges against the former president — an unprecedented action that they said likely would only happen if the Justice Department believes it has an extremely strong case.
David Raskin,who served for many years as a senior federal prosecutor in New York City, and more recently has worked as a prosecutor in Kansas City, Mo., has been quietly assisting in the investigation into Trump and his aides, according to the people familiar with the matter, who like others interviewed for this article spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe an ongoing investigation.

'Vicious, biased': Trump assails judge in NY fraud lawsuit
By MICHAEL R. SISAK
2 hours ago
NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump is lashing out at the judge handling the New York attorney general's fraud lawsuit against him and his company, calling him “vicious, biased, and mean” in a social media post just days before the case’s first court hearing.
The former president, who has been on the losing side of Judge Arthur Engoron’s rulings in the past, coupled Friday’s criticism with complaints that — as a politician — he shouldn't be forced to deal with legal action until after the midterm elections on Nov. 8.
In a separate case, opening statements are set for Monday in the Trump Organization’s criminal tax fraud trial following the completion of jury selection on Friday.
Trump, who has been laying groundwork for a possible comeback run for president in 2024, grumbled in a post on his Truth Social platform about having to deal with simultaneous court action on the eve of an election that could put Republicans back in control of one or both houses of Congress.
“In breaking with a long standing and powerful tradition where cases involving politicos are not to be brought or tried just prior to, or during, a major Election (the Midterms), I have THREE, all run and inspired by Democrats, who absolutely refused to move the date,” Trump wrote. “They demanded it be now. So much for tradition and unwritten rules and laws!!!”
There are currently three active cases involving Trump or the Trump Organization in New York courts.
The company’s criminal tax fraud trial, which involves allegations that senior executives received off-the-books compensation, could last into December. Six alternate jurors were picked Friday to complete the panel needed for the trial.
On Monday, jury selection is scheduled to begin in the Bronx in a civil lawsuit brought by protesters who say they were roughed up by Trump’s security guards.
Trump’s outburst about Engoron came in the third case, a civil lawsuit filed by Attorney General Letitia James, after an administrative judge refused Tuesday to have the matter reassigned to another judge.
On Truth Social, Trump said the only person worse than James was Engoron.
“His name is Arthur Engoron & he is a vicious, biased, and mean ‘rubber stamp’ for the Communist takeover of the great & prosperous American company that I have built over a long period of years," Trump wrote.
A court spokesperson said Engoron, a judge since 2003, had no comment.
James' lawsuit, the product of a three-year investigation into Trump's business practices, alleges that he and the Trump Organization inflated his net worth by billions of dollars and misled banks and others for years about the value of assets, including golf courses, hotels and his Mar-a-Lago estate.
James, a Democrat, is seeking $250 million and a permanent ban on Trump, a Republican, doing business in the state.
At a hearing scheduled for Thursday, Engoron will weigh James' request for an independent monitor to oversee the Trump Organization’s activities after she alleged the company was taking steps to dodge potential penalties, such as incorporating a new entity named Trump Organization II.

POOTWH is just that. POOTWH. He ain’t running for any current office in 2022 and has yet to declare for 2024. Further, NYS is under no obligation to withhold charges or defer going to trial prior to an election being held. That’s USDOJ internal policy and not a law.

Engoron, a Democrat, repeatedly had ruled against Trump in disputes over subpoenas, holding him in contempt and fining him $110,000 for being slow to turn over documents and forcing him to sit for a deposition — testimony in which Trump invoked his Fifth Amendment protection against self-incrimination more than 400 times.
On Truth Social, Trump said the only person worse than James was Engoron.
“His name is Arthur Engoron & he is a vicious, biased, and mean ‘rubber stamp’ for the Communist takeover of the great & prosperous American company that I have built over a long period of years," Trump wrote.
A court spokesperson said Engoron, a judge since 2003, had no comment.
James' lawsuit, the product of a three-year investigation into Trump's business practices, alleges that he and the Trump Organization inflated his net worth by billions of dollars and misled banks and others for years about the value of assets, including golf courses, hotels and his Mar-a-Lago estate.
James, a Democrat, is seeking $250 million and a permanent ban on Trump, a Republican, doing business in the state.
At a hearing scheduled for Thursday, Engoron will weigh James' request for an independent monitor to oversee the Trump Organization’s activities after she alleged the company was taking steps to dodge potential penalties, such as incorporating a new entity named Trump Organization II.
At the same time, the FBI is continuing to investigate Trump’s storage of sensitive government documents at Mar-a-Lago, a special grand jury in Georgia is investigating whether Trump or others attempted to influence state election officials and, last week, the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection issued a subpoena to Trump.

I guess he’s guilty times 400.
POOTWH is just that. POOTWH. He ain’t running for any current office in 2022 and has yet to declare for 2024. Further, NYS is under no obligation to withhold charges or defer going to trial prior to an election being held. That’s USDOJ internal policy and not a law.
