    tRump was on some podcast talking about the Pelosi attack....spewing all kinds of bullshit.

    ALL of that right wing bullshit has been disproven (a simple reading of the fucking SFPD report) yet they continue on like the report doesn't even exist.

    This morning it came out that there is actually security footage of the guy breaking the window (FROM THE OUTSIDE) but there was no security person actually paying attention so no alerts were made until Pelosi's call to 911.
    Yeah I heard that part of podcast! What a total douche bag him and all his supporters are, he talks like he has all the inside info and they totally bite hook line & sinker. It’s utterly repulsive 
    That's the problem with the right wing news. Their "sources" bring up the bullshit and then never go back and correct anything. They just continue forward with the bullshit like the facts don't exist.

    This country is totally fucked. We are too stupid to survive this.
    Well that's the pot calling the kettle black! The left wing news is famous for cherry picking their facts but leaving out important details that provide actual context to the story. Gotta control the narrative! 
    Crock of shit! Faux literally didn’t cover the 1/6 hearings some of the most important in this nations history 
    https://www.npr.org/2022/06/10/1104116455/fox-news-jan-6-hearing Did you watch them? 
    The Jan 6th hearings are proving my point. After the FBI told congress that there was no there there they still decided to hold a partisan (Yes Kinszinger and Cheney are actually Dems) one sided showcase all so they could once again control the narrative. 

    Fox didn't air it because they knew their audience wouldn't stand for it. If their audience wanted to see it they could go to any of the many state run news channels. 
    https://www.newsweek.com/liz-cheney-voted-donald-trump-93-percent-congress-1734186

    Liz Cheney is no Democrat.  Don't be stupid.
    And all of the people who worked for Trump in his administration, and testified against him, are  R's(Jan. 6th hearing did prove your point?)

    Judge says he'll appoint monitor for Donald Trump's company
    By MICHAEL R. SISAK
    52 mins ago

    NEW YORK (AP) — A Manhattan judge said Thursday he will appoint an independent monitor “to ensure there is no further fraud” at former President Donald Trump’s company, restricting its ability to freely make deals, sell assets and change its corporate structure.

    Judge Arthur Engoron ordered an outside watchdog as he presides over a lawsuit in which New York’s attorney general alleges Trump and the Trump Organization misled banks and others about the value of prized assets, including golf courses and hotels bearing his name.

    Attorney General Letitia James says the company is continuing to engage in fraud and has taken steps to dodge potential penalties from her lawsuit, such as incorporating a new, similarly named entity — Trump Organization LLC — in September, just before the lawsuit was filed.

    Engoron wrote in an 11-page order that Trump and the Trump Organization “demonstrated propensity to engage in persistent fraud” and that appointing an outside monitor “is the most prudent and narrowly tailored mechanism to ensure there is no further fraud or illegality" pending the resolution of the lawsuit.

    James, a Democrat, is seeking $250 million and a permanent ban on Trump, a Republican, doing business in the state.

    Engoron, in agreeing to appoint a monitor, barred the Trump Organization from selling or transferring any noncash assets without giving the court and James’ office 14 days notice. The to-be-named monitor will be charged with ensuring the company's compliance and will immediately report any violations to the court and lawyers for both sides.

    The Trump Organization must also grant the monitor access to its financial statements, asset valuations and other disclosures, must provide a full and accurate description of the company's structure and must give the monitor at least 30 days notice of any potential restructuring, refinancing or asset sales, Engoron said.

    It's just the latest ruling Engoron has made against Trump or Trump-related interests.

    While presiding over disputes over subpoenas issued in James’ investigation, the judge, a Democrat, held Trump in contempt and fined him $110,000 after he was slow to turn over documents, and he forced him to sit for a deposition. In that testimony, Trump invoked his Fifth Amendment protection against self-incrimination more than 400 times.

    Messages seeking comment were left with lawyers for Trump and the Trump Organization.

    James’ senior enforcement counsel, Kevin Wallace, said at a hearing preceding Engoron's decision that they were seeking “limited” oversight and wouldn’t want the monitor involved in intricacies, such as how many rounds of golf or hotel rooms they were booking in a given year.

    “Our goal in doing this is not to impact the day-to-day operations of the Trump Organization," said Wallace.

    “The Trump Organization has a persistent record of not complying with existing court orders,” Wallace said. “It should not be incumbent on the court or the attorney general to spend the next year looking over their shoulder, making sure assets aren’t sold or the company restructured.”

    Trump sued James in Florida on Wednesday, seeking to block her from having any oversight over the family trust that controls his company. Trump’s 35-page complaint rehashed some claims from his previously dismissed lawsuit against James in federal court in New York, including that her investigation of him is a “political witch hunt.”

    Wallace said at Thursday's hearing that James' office is seeking to stop “fraudulent activities that are ongoing at the Trump Organization" and wants safeguards in place so that the company can't just sell off assets, such as Trump Tower and an office building at 40 Wall Street, that could eventually be used to pay a potential lawsuit judgment.

    Trump Organization lawyer Christopher Kise responded that the company has “no intention” to divest those properties, which together he says conservatively have a value of at least $250 million. The "Trump entities are not going anywhere,” he added.

    Kise argued that James' lawsuit was much ado about common, good-faith disagreements in the real estate industry. If banks that loaned Trump money felt he or the company had acted improperly, they would have spoken up, Kise said.

    “There’s no problem. There’s no case here,” Kise said. “It’s mind-numbing that we’re going to have a receiver insert himself or herself into these complex transactions instead of the owner of this real estate.”

    Engoron took issue with at least one aspect of Kise's reasoning, asking him if there was really a “good-faith disagreement” when Trump claimed his Trump Tower penthouse was three times its actual size, and $200 million more valuable.

    As for the new Trump entity that drew concern from James' office, Kise said the company — listed in a New York corporate filing as Trump Organization II — had nothing to do with dodging potential penalties from James' lawsuit, but rather “consolidation of payroll issues that have arisen in other contexts.”

    Kise didn't offer additional details. The Trump Organization’s payroll practices are among the issues being raised at the company's Manhattan criminal fraud trial, which was halted Tuesday and is expected to resume Monday after a witness tested positive for COVID-19.

    I like that Ron and whoever else runs is forced to be Trump adjacent while campaigning and have to convince people they aren’t Trump, but still are kinda like him so they don’t alienate his base. Watch the creative  wordplay when asked about Trump’s crimes and the “stolen election”.

    I know, but "laughing gleefully" at desantis being the nominee? yikes. he's just a smarter version of trump. not sure which is worse at this point. But I think desantis has a better chance of beating biden than trump does.

    How exactly did they define "likely voter" for a hypothetical election two years in the future?

    They asked are definitely going to vote, probably going to vote, probably not vote, definitely not vote. 

    Looking at the results of that question, it says 93% said they were definitely going to vote, so I think it skews the numbers as opposed to asking about voting history and labeling likely voters from that answer. With this poll you probably have a lot of people who said they’re definitely voting, but based on typical turnout numbers, many if them won’t vote.

    I just don't think Desantis would be anywhere near as bad. He's still a fucking idiot but he doesn't have the corrupt business ties that lead to more corruption with tRump and he would likely appoint semi-normal people to positions of power rather than tRump's moron crew.

    That's the theory...he wants to announce before he is charged so that he can martyr himself

    I really don't think the party leaders want him to run. Once the election is over next week I won't be surprised if some big GOP figures go public on why he shouldn't run again.

    You are absolutely correct that the republican party leaders such as Cocaine Mitch don't want him to run again just like they didn't want him to run the first time. Washington as a whole is deathly afraid of Donald Trump and it is not because he hurts peoples feelings or tries to create bad policies. It's because he represents an end to their gravy train. In a sense Washington created Trump and they are onto year 7 of trying to destroy him and it isn't because they are trying to protect you America. It's to protect themselves.
