Meanwhile, another erstwhile tRump lawyer pleaded out in Atlanta...that would be Jenna Ellis, who is getting the same sort of deal as was given to Sidney Powell...she was fast running out of money, as the tRump PACs weren't any longer picking up her legal tabs. I'm sure that Ms Ellis will have a few words to say regarding the "fake electors" scheme in GA.
Bolts does indescribably excellent work. Like David said, its coverage complements TPM. As David said, highly recommended.
As for the late filings:
It’s highly common in litigation in the online filing. It’s a way to deprive adversaries of up to a day to draft any response. What defense counsel did here is in no way special.
As for the merits of the motions, they’re irrelevant insofar as, at least, delaying case which I love to see. As I’ve said ad nauseum already, I want all the pending trials kept in the news as much as possible til the election. And much better none getting resolved, leaving the defendant to be tried in the press and court of public opinion, than fPOTUS getting an acquittal.
As Tricky Dick Nixon said, let fPOTUS twist slowly, slowly in the wind right up to Election Day. If nothing else, the stress is getting to him, making him yet more unhinged unless it’s early stage dementia or a combination.
The Democrats because reasons rely heavily on the Republicans making themselves look bad and between fPOTUS and the House, the GOP will unlikely ever be more repellent.
Chris Cillizza got teh transcript of the New Hampshire lunatic assembly yesterday and published them in his substack. Trump is seriously getting worse.
Trump praises Viktor Orbán as the leader of Turkey, while accusing Biden (who has been going nonstop for the past three weeks, traveling and giving speeches) of cognitive impairment. Not that Trump even knows what cognitive impairment means. I can’t read this because there’s a pay wall; but that’s OK, I get it.
This is absolutely priceless. It is a short clip from, I believe, Trump’s campaign stop in New Hampshire, where he actually tells the audience to “not worry about voting, because we have plenty of votes,” but they need to watch out for those fake voters. I hope his MAGA supporters take his advice about not voting very seriously.
Ken Buck litmus on election denial as non starter for Speaker makes me think he’s cooperating with SC Jack Smith’s deputies Hulser and or Harbach. A girl can dream 😂
That’s interesting. But why? He hasn’t been accused of anything and he did vote to certify the election. I’m sure of this because I know the two insurrectionist Colorado representatives who did not certify it.
True, anything is possible. He’s not my representative, but I know people in that district. I have the misfortune of Lauren Boebert as a rep, but I’m feeling pretty certain she’s going to be ousted next November. As for Ken Buck, his MAGA landlord is throwing him out of his Colorado office because of his “behavior.“ I think he’s going to have a primary challenger. I’m rather amazed that he’s doing this, but then again, Liz Cheney also shocked me.

Working backwards...

He might be a witness to congressional members that he witnessed first hand to J6 crimes. Just a hunch.
