The charges against Trump in Florida will be under a Trump-appointed judge (Eileen Cannon) who has already bent over backwards once in a ruling that was both favourable to Trump and illegal (and overturned) and the jury will be picked from the same Floridians who elected DiSantis as governor.

When is it to old, seems like many a Senator want to hold on to their jobs, Feinstein is 90 and doesn't know what planet she is on, McConnell is 81 and is a POS, Grassley is 89 and is an idiot, Sanders is 81 he seems okay and a whole bunch are in their 70's

Different system but in Canada, Senators have to step down at 75, which seems about right.

Florida just approved PragerU Kids’ right-wing propaganda videos for use in public school classrooms. There's copaganda, celebrations of colonialism, and more. Follow along for some lessons DeSantis et al are foisting on students.

Its Florida, and therfore inevitable. Ironic that a state with a large Jewish population has become a hotbed for fascism.

Apparently one of the defences that the Trump legal team is going to use is that Trump's impeachment "trial" in the Senate (which acquitted him) consitutes a legal trial and therefore he cannot be re-tried on any similar offence (double jeopardy). A laughable concept but that is what they are reduced to.

You would need a Supreme Court to agree to that :D

My prediction, if Trump is the nomination for the Republican party and you know that's a slam dunk cause he would run as an independent and the Republicans would be handing the election to the Dems,  he won't be tried on any of the indictments till after the election. If and when he loses he will flee the country.

This is why the right is pushing RFKjr so much. They're hoping that it will split the left vote if they can get him to run as an independent. So, Trump splits the right but the left is split with RFKjr.

Poll: Pro-Trump Republicans who believe he committed crimes outnumber all DeSantis voters

A new New York Times/Siena College poll finds that even after two criminal indictments and ahead of possibly two more, Donald Trump is “dominating” the entire GOP presidential primary field, including Florida Governor Ron DeSantis “by a landslide 37 percentage points.” Trump, the poll shows, currently has the majority of likely Republican primary voters. Some experts point to “racial anxiety” and “GOP hostility to changing gender roles,” some to “the loss of white straight male privilege,” and some are calling it a “cult.”

“Mr. Trump held decisive advantages across almost every demographic group and region and in every ideological wing of the party, the survey found, as Republican voters waved away concerns about his escalating legal jeopardy,” The Times’ Shane Goldmacher reports. “He led by wide margins among men and women, younger and older voters, moderates and conservatives, those who went to college and those who didn’t, and in cities, suburbs and rural areas.”

Calling the results “ominous” for the Florida governor, the Times reports the “poll shows that some of Mr. DeSantis’s central campaign arguments — that he is more electable than Mr. Trump, and that he would govern more effectively — have so far failed to break through. Even Republicans motivated by the type of issues that have fueled Mr. DeSantis’s rise, such as fighting ‘radical woke ideology,’ favored the former president.”

DEVON ARCHER BOMBSHELL BACKFIRES ON REPUBLICANS AND BLOWS UP BIDEN BRIBERY CLAIM


The big witness in the House Republican Biden bribery investigation backfired on Republicans and confirmed that there was no Biden bribery.
CNN reported:

Republicans really teed up this testimony today and promoted Archer, the former business associate of Hunter Biden, as a potential bombshell witness, as somebody who might be able to deliver that kind of smoking-gun evidence linking the president to his son, Hunter Biden’s foreign business dealings.

"I’m hearing from sources who were in the room after hours of testimony, we just saw Archer leaving, sources saying he did not deliver that smoking gun that Republicans had hoped for. A source familiar with the matter tells me that, you know, Archer told the committee that Hunter Biden was selling the illusion, in quotes, of access to his father, you know, his father not directly implicating President Joe Biden in any of the foreign dealings but saying Hunter Biden was trying to essentially trick business partners into thinking he could provide direct access to his father."

GOP claims Hunter Biden’s calls with his father as brother was dying of cancer are proof of criminal activity

U.S. Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY), the only member of Congress to sit through Monday’s entire closed-door testimony from House Republicans’ witness in their investigation into Hunter Biden’s business dealings, says President Biden and his son had frequent phone calls to support each other when Beau Biden was dying of cancer.

Republicans have baselessly grabbed onto the claim, made by Hunter Biden’s former business partner Devon Archer, as supposed proof of criminal activity by President Joe Biden.
Congressman Jackson was the White House Physician during the time then-Vice President Biden’s son was dying and would have known about the family tragedy.

Beau Biden, President Biden’s oldest son and the former Attorney General of Delaware, died of cancer in 2015. His death, is believed to be the result of the “burn pits” the U.S. Military used during the Iraq War.
