I don't know, maybe it is a deliberate ploy. Involve a Jury and you have the everyday man judging him. If it is just the judge then he can continue his witch-hunt spiel and that the judge is completely corrupt...something that his cult will absolutely lap up unfortunately.

Don't think the forum software embeds Bluesky posts but this is pretty remarkable from one of Trump's lawyers.
Oh, if you aren't logged in you can't see them so Imgur to the rescue.

I clicked on the link, but I couldn't be arsed to sign up to the site. Genuine question, where are people consuming social media these days? Twitter/X, for all it's faults, still seems to have the most engagement. I'm kind of interested if that's changing, because twitter/X is a sewer.

Twitter rumour, so big, massive, colossal pinch of salt but she was asked to get blond highlights and sit around with her mouth slightly open for the cameras

Yeah, I noticed earlier when they showed that clip on Channel 4 News. Using a garish GAMR laptop as your work laptop when you are professional lawyer is one thing, but not even bothering to turn off the LED lights when you are in the courtroom doesn't cast a positive light on his crack team.

I wish to apologise to the fictional character Lionel Hutz, as portrayed by the late Phil Hartman, in comparing Trump's lawyers to him. The absolutely useless Hutz would still be a better lawyer than anyone Trump has hired. I was just about to say that even I would probably do better and all the lawyering experience I have is on Ace Attorney, and then I saw the post above this one...

Trump turned up to a second day of this trial (that he’s not obliged to turn up to) and it’s just occurred to me he’s there to intimidate the witnesses.

So I guess all is going swimmingly well with the GOP when 8 of them vote with the Dems to kick out Kevin McCarthy as Speaker.

What's in it for the Dems? Other than making the Republicans look divided etc?

Lasted longer than I thought he would. It's nice that he managed to get enough votes to keep the government open for another month or so, but whoever replaces him is going to have the exact same problem.

It took approximately an entire geological epoch to get him in place originally, that worked out well.

I guess we've been asking that for a number of years now.

After the out and out fascism of the Tory Conference I'm not sure we (in the UK) can ask that question with a straight face.

If you think you can stand listening to Gaetes for a minute, he actually makes a short speech here that doesn’t appear to be factually incorrect. youtu.be/OJAG-ZNdPxY?feature=sharedAs for the The Democrats part in it, they held a party meeting on what to do just before the vote, and the main points were: McCarthy made deals with the Biden administration on funding then completely reneged on it, and can’t be trusted. McCarthy went on TV moments before the vote and lied his ass off to blame Democrats for the government nearly shutting down, I mean he clearly didn’t want their support. They watched the video of him calling them cunts at that meeting. McCarthy ruled out any kind of power-sharing negotiation, preferring to claim he could get by with Trump’s hand up Matt Gaetz’s ass up his own ass.

If the republicans are so divided, can the democrats nominate their own speaker?
