  1. "It's going to be a crime": Trump attorney notes show ex-president tried to defy documents subpoena The former president suggested lying to the federal government and claiming he had no classified documents Former President Donald Trump tried to obstruct the criminal investigation into the classified documents stashed at his Mar-a-Lago estate by getting his lawyers to lie about the documents that were subpoenaed in May 2022, asking them repeatedly if it would be "better if we just told them we don't have anything here," according to audio notes reviewed by ABC News. The recording, from then-Trump attorney Evan Corcoran, could be used as evidence of the former president's criminal intent. But that is up to Judge Aileen Cannon, who could rule that the notes are subject to attorney-client privilege. Another federal judge last year ruled that prosecutors could obtain the recording as part of their effort to show Trump misled his own attorneys in an effort to effectively make them accomplices. Corcoran’s notes detail Trump blaming his legal difficulties on his “political enemies." They may support prosecutors' claims that Trump attempted to defy the subpoena that allowed federal agents to eventually seize 102 classified documents — including 17 top secret documents — in the August 2022 on his Mar-a-Lago estate. "Well look, isn't it better if there are no documents?" Trump asked at one point, per Corcoran's notes. The former president, who faces more than 40 felony counts, has pleaded not guilty. Before agents stormed his Florida estate, Trump met with Corcoran and attorney Jennifer Little for an hour and a half meeting, where he brought a box filled with newspaper clippings, Post-it notes, photos and other materials. "I don't want anybody looking, I don't want anybody looking through my boxes, I really don't, I don't want you looking through my boxes," Trump said, according to Corcoran’s notes. "Look, I just don't want anybody going through these things." The notes show that Little and Corcoran repeatedly warned the presumptive Republican nominee about the consequences of not complying, saying “it's going to be a crime.” https://www.salon.com/2024/06/25/its-going-to-be-a-crime-attorney-notes-show-ex-tried-to-defy-documents-subpoena/ Well that’s where they were in fact hidden
  2. LOL wrong on both. What would “LGBTQ supremacy even mean in practical terms LMAO Tolerating LGBTQ as citizens with equal rights is not making them supreme. If posting Ten Commandments is not about Christian supremacy then you’ll support the law also requiring texts from the Koran and other non-Christian religions too right? Literally the first 4 commandments are about forbidding the practices of other religions…how do you say with a straight face it’s not about Christian supremacy?
  3. So Democrats sponsored this event , promoted it went to it, defended it? The venn diagram isn’t as close as you think. Many different types of people support Democrats for many different reasons. There is far more diversity in the Democratic Party than there is in the Cult of Trump. Many left-wing people wouldn’t touch an establishment party like the Democrats with a ten-foot pole Many people can be drag queens, LGBTQ without being political at all. Or may even be conservative. Look at gay Republican drag Queen George Santos for example. As for where I stand LGBTQ isn’t my issue and I don’t understand drag queens and wouldn’t take my kids to a drag show let alone one with alleged nudity(although the nudity seems to be an exaggerated claim here). I wouldn’t call it “child sexual abuse” to do so however and as a point of fact neither does the law. For all I know the alleged drag queen in the OP is that kids parent. Conservatives have been big on promoting the idea that children are the exclusive property of their parents to be raised as the parent pleases, and have said so on a number of topics like spanking, corporal punishment, vaccinations and especially sexual education. Some parents, MAGAs among them, let their kids be exposed to explicit movies and music and other displays of vulgarity. It’s probably more abusive to take your kids to a Klan rally than a drag show but while that has been happening for centuries that doesn’t seem to be something that keeps MAGAs awake at night.
  4. Posting The Ten Commandments is about establishing Christian supremacy over other religions and indoctrinating kids into Christianity. Contrary to right wing ideology, the pride flag is not about about establishing LGBTQ supremacy over straight people or indoctrinating kids into becoming LGBTQ
  5. He has multiple homes and doesn’t normally go to Florida in the summer especially when it’s under construction and especially “discretely”
  6. So you have evidence that they are card-carrying members of the Democratic Party or something? The word “liberal” is not the same thing as Democrat For all you know these ppl are among the millions of Americans who don’t even bother to vote because they are too lazy or too radical or too self-involved.
  7. Probably a more accurate statement would be they were confused where he would stay that wouldn’t result in him abusively lashing out at them. Trump is such an unstable high-maintenance foul-tempered tyrant his minions probably trembled in fear worrying how would deal with the inconvenience of construction and having to sleep in a different room…possibly a room smaller than that of other guests. This is after all the same man who berated his staff at the Washington DC Trump hotel restaurant after he noticed a another guest’s steak appeared to be larger than his and then made them keep a reserve stock of extra large steaks exclusively for him so he could always have the biggest steak in the house. The man is Caligula.
  8. I doubt a single Tennessee Republican involved in this decree will spend a second of their life fasting. This is all just the Republican version of “virtue signalling” to the religious right to make sure that constituency turns out to vote. All of these stupid religious laws coming out of the woodwork like the Louisiana Ten Commandments law are the same thing.
  9. If MAGAs don’t like hearing there will be MAGA violence if Trump loses the election then perhaps they should stop threatening violence if Trump loses the election 💡
  10. So faced with facts you can’t argue against you resort to childish insults Typical.
  11. No neither democrats nor drag queens are my people, simpleton Nope. Show me where Democrats were involved.
  12. What Trump’s Secret Trip Means for His Classified Documents Case The former president snuck down to Mar-a-Lago just weeks before the FBI raided the property. Donald Trump reportedly took a “highly unusual” trip to Mar-a-Lago, just weeks before the FBI raided the Florida estate, to repossess thousands of sensitive documents. But the “discreet,” previously unreported trip—which occurred between July 10 and 12 in the summer of 2022—has caught the interest of investigators, who believe it may have been another attempt to conceal the documents after being served a subpoena for their swift return, ABC News reported Monday. Several witnesses who spoke with federal investigators explained that Trump’s visit to Mar-a-Lago was unexpected for a couple reasons: first, because Trump typically spends the entirety of his summers at his New Jersey residence in Bedminster; and second, because his private living quarters in Mar-a-Lago were under construction at the time of his visit. Staff were reportedly confused as to where the former president would even stay. But behind the scenes, former Trump aide Walt Nauta was working to keep the Florida drop-in as covert as possible. “I’m pretty sure [Trump] wants minimal people around on Monday,” Nauta texted one Trump employee the day before the former president arrived, reported ABC. In another message, sent on July 8, Nauta told a Trump Organization employee to remain “discreet,” adding an emoji with a zipper over its mouth. “They were keeping this one quiet … nobody knew about this trip,” one witness with direct knowledge of the trip told investigators, according to ABC News. But some witnesses who spoke with special counsel Jack Smith’s team did have details on the purpose of the conveniently timed trip. At least one witness who worked closely with Trump told investigators that they believed Trump was “checking on the boxes.” … https://newrepublic.com/post/183010/trump-secret-trip-mar-a-lago-classified-documents
  13. What does any of it have to do with Democrats?
  14. Didn’t know Tennessee had gone Muslim. Not surprised though.
  15. “Biden” isn’t “spying” on anyone. LAW ENFORCEMENT is doing its job MONITORING KNOWN THREATS At least though you’ll admit that MAGA is a religion. After 9/11 the republicans redesigned national security apparatus specifically to “spy on people based on their religion” while the right cheered for blood and guilty-until-proven-innocent mentality. Now that the MAGA cult is the new national security threat you can’t even bear the notion of having your religion simply called out as such on paper You’re telling another of your made up lies
  16. From what I can tell she’s just a civilian academic at a university and she’s not “in charge” of anything or anyone in the military. She’s going to do anything that affects military activity let alone get anyone killed.
  17. Trump himself is hinting not so subtly at violence if he doesn’t win as are many of his supporters. We all know there will be right wing violence in the event of a Biden victory. And there is already a well established track record of right wing terrism in America: abortion clinic bombings, the Jan 6 attack, the Whitmer kidnapping attempt, Trump supporters making death threats against all sorts of public officials and judge. Meanwhile groups like proud boys, oath keepers, patriot front continue to organize and threaten violence. And of course historically domestic terrorists like Timothy McVeigh and Eric Rudolph were both right wing ex-military motivated by right wing causes. it’s only going to get worse A government department doing its job and stating the facts is not the president “targeting” people.
  18. And rightards make their BS accusations about Biden - without anyone diagnosing that in person - and Biden passes his cognitive test. Donyou see your hypocrisy? Of course you don’t So you’re fixating on the fact that he wasn’t dumb and irresponsible enough to hold superspreader rallies at the start of the pandemic 4 years ago? Hilarious. Nobody “has to do” rallies and “speaking off the cuff for hours at a time” is not the great feat you think it is: it's the ultimate display of narcissism and what Hitler, Castro, Mussolini and other dictators were known for. They are both far too old to be POTUS. America’s gerontocracy including Pelosi and McConnell who only recently stepped down due to health problems is a symptom of American democratic decline in recent decades. I don’t think anyone can say Trump speaks well. If you’re comparing him to Biden, maybe, but the latter is more likely to be delivering a prepared speech while Trump just gives a meandering unhinged rant with no planned direction or purpose to adoring and uncritical followers so it’s hard to compare apples to apples. We know that even when Biden was young he was gaffe-prone. At the debates we will have a better comparison. Of course Biden’s age will be an issue, he will be 86 at the end of a second term which would have been unthinkable only a few years ago. But an unhinged mor0n like Trump also would have been unthinkable. Neither one is an ideal choice for President…simply being able to day that is proof Im not “Biden’s boy” contrary to your claims. But given the sinister motives of Trump and his pack of grifters and extremists, a Biden administration with a figurehead POTUS being “handled” by his staff is the least worst option and possibly not even a first given what we know of Reagan’s second term.
  19. Lol OMG are you touching yourself again when you fantasize about warhorse Trump? The closest thing to the truth in your drivel is that Trump was holding superspreader rallies during the pandemic when everyone else had the common sense not to. All aspiring dictators have a need to rant to throngs of their adoring followers even during breakouts of highly contagious disease.
  20. On any given day you can see just how religious and moral these fascist Talibaptists really are Coast to coast they’re always getting caught in sexual assault scandals and threatening their victims Young Republicans Leader Charged With 'Sexual Torture' On Thursday, deputies with the Madison County Sheriff's Office discovered a dead body later identified as 54-year-old Derek Franklin Walls of Harvest, Alabama, after being called to a home on the 1700 block of Capshaw Road. Later that same day, it was announced that deputies had arrested 36-year-old Kyle Hayden Lewter in connection with Walls' death. Lewter is a well-known member of the community, having served as chairman since 2022 for the Madison County chapter of the Young Republicans National Federation (YRNF), a political organization dedicated to registered GOP members between the ages of 18 and 40. Lewter has since been booked at the Madison County Jail, with the sheriff's office ordering him "to be held without the possibility of posting a bond." Among the charges leveled against him in connection with Walls' death, he faces one count of "sexual torture," with the specific charge alleging "sexual abuse using inanimate object." https://www.newsweek.com/young-republicans-leader-charged-sexual-torture-1877703 Republican arrested after 'chasing an adult dancer on a road while waving a gun at 2:45am'... and his campaign releases bizarre statement A Republican lawmaker from northern Michigan was arrested in the early hours of Thursday morning after police responded to reports of a man with a gun and possible shots fired. Neil Friske, 62, has a record as a hardline conservative and has put faith and family at the heart of his campaign to be reelected to the state House of Representatives. He was arrested after chasing an adult dancer following a disagreement, according to the Michigan Information and Research Service, which covers the state capitol. Property records show he was arrested close to a condo he owns, according to the Detroit news. About 40 minutes after police said Friske was arrested, two posts appeared on his X account, discussing legislation banning pornography produced by A.I. without the consent of people in the image. 'I'm not going to cave to the pressure of special interest. I'm not afraid of the false accusations, like 'Friske is for AI Porn' when a bill denies THE PEOPLE their rights to properly defend themselves,' his account posted at 3:25am, along with a follow-up. Friske is one of the most hardline conservatives in the House. He is a member of the Freedom Caucus, which lines up against the vast majority of legislation brought before them in the Democratic-led legislature. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13552267/amp/republicans-stripper-arrested-neil-friske-michigan.html Pastor Robert Morris tried to scare his sex abuse victim with threat of prosecution Morris, ex-Trump adviser & Texas pastor, told an accuser that she "could be criminally prosecuted" for restitution A Texas megachurch pastor — who admitted to “inappropriate sexual behavior” with a child — warned a victim that she “could be criminally prosecuted" for seeking restitution for the crimes against her. Gateway Church Pastor Robert Morris, once a spiritual adviser to former President Donald Trump, admitted last weekend to a sexual relationship with a 12-year-old girl. But nearly 20 years before he would admit to his abusive behavior, he told his accuser that he couldn’t compensate her. Emails between Morris and Cindy Clemishire dating back to 2005, obtained by NBC News, show proof of a victim’s attempt to seek justice and Morris’ threat to her. “Twenty-three years after you began destroying my life, I am still dealing with the pain and damage you caused,” Clemishire wrote, per NBC News. “Debbie and I really do care for you and we sincerely want God’s best for you,” Morris wrote, speaking of his wife, Debbie Morris. “My attorney advises that if I pay you any money under a threat of exposure, you could be criminally prosecuted and Debbie and I do not want that.” https://www.salon.com/2024/06/22/pastor-robert-morris-tried-to-scare-his-abuse-victim-with-of-prosecution/ Amd on amd on it goes Whenever poltcians are ACTUALLY proven to he pedophiles or sexual predators, 90% of the time they are Republicans
  21. Nope you can’t acknowledge that. I am willing to say that Joe Biden is of Sound mind. False. Joe isn’t entirely feeble and he is not well into cognitive decline. He often uses a teleprompter and was recently upset when it wasn’t working Not that you need a teleprompter to rant like lunatic and Im sure he goes off screen anyway Trump complains about his teleprompters at a scorching Las Vegas rally Well into his speech, Trump said it was “not as bad” as he thought it would be, and said he was angrier with the teleprompters not working well, even when he used to mock President Barack Obama for relying on that device. “I pay all this money to teleprompter people, and I’d say 20% of the time, they don’t work,” he said, adding he would not pay the vendor who provided the prompters. “It’s a mess.” https://apnews.com/article/donald-trump-nevada-rally-heat-las-vegas-90b0c766b9bfc41b370953834b70f7c9 How ridiculous. Biden’s full time job is President of the United States not giving election speeches, which does on his personal time not taxpayers time. How do you not understand that?
  22. Biden is not my boy Trump is only 3 years younger, older than Biden was in the last election. Trump’s showing his own signs of early dementia in the form of phonemic paraphasia, which is not just normal stumbling during speech but mixing up like-sounding syllables, get stuck on the same word and repeating it over and over, trailing off into silence mid sentence, interrupting himself mid sentence to go off an unrelated tangent, trying to get back on topic by suddenly yelling out a single key word from his intended point, etc. Personally my favourite is him turning words into long mush trails so like the word “Mexico” instead ends in “Mexiuuuuuuuuuh…..*silence*” and House of Representatives is “House of Repressshhhhhhhhh…*silence*” and then having completely lost his place, after a few awkward beats he tries to recover by shouting something like “IMMIGRANTS!” or whatever keyword his original sentence had been related to
  23. Biden is 3 whole years older than Trump. Trump is now 1 year older than Biden was in the last election, and you claimed Biden was too old to run for office back then. Fact Check: D-Day video of Biden attempting to sit on chair is cropped By Reuters Fact Check June 19, 20248:15 AM EDTUpdated 2 days ago A video purportedly showing U.S. President Joe Biden attempting to sit on a chair that was not there has been cropped, with the full footage showing Biden looking over his shoulder for a chair and pausing before taking a seat. …A post sharing the video, opens new tab said: “Joe Biden tries to sit on a non-existent chair.” However, the video has been clipped right before Biden fully sits down on the chair that is present behind him. The full footage, opens new tab of the commemoration event shows Biden pause after he leans down to sit while U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin is introduced. He then fully sits down along with U.S. first lady Jill Biden, French President Emmanuel Macron and France’s first lady Brigitte Macron https://www.reuters.com/fact-check/d-day-video-biden-attempting-sit-chair-is-cropped-2024-06-11/ Once again you’re proven to be a gullible sucker who falls for obvious lies that are easily disproven by publicly available objective evidence. But what else would anyone expect from a mindless follower of the Republican cult?
