Stormy Daniels: I realized exactly what I'd gotten myself into. And I was like, "Ugh, here we go." (LAUGH) And I just felt like maybe-- (LAUGH) it was sort of-- I had it coming for making a bad decision for going to someone's room alone and I just heard the voice in my head, "well, you put yourself in a bad situation and bad things happen, so you deserve this."

Lot of contempt for the law fr. Maga proles....​

Peter Navarro Is Paying for His Contempt for the Law​

Peter Navarro may not have stormed the Capitol barricades alongside the other Jan. 6 insurrectionists, but on Tuesday he met the same fate as many of them: The former trade adviser to Donald Trump reported to federal prison in Miami to begin a four-month sentence for contempt of Congress.

In so doing, Navarro became the first Trump White House official to see the inside of a jail cell for actions related to the Jan. 6 attack. May he not be the last.

Navarro’s crime was to ignore subpoenas from the House Select Committee on Jan. 6, which had summoned him in 2022 to testify and provide documents about his plan to delay the electoral-vote count. He was convicted in January; on Monday he lost his final bid to stay out of prison during his appeal. Chief Justice John Roberts rejected the request without referring it to the full court. (Pro tip: That means you have a weak case.)

Contempt can seem like an arcane offense. Is it really a crime deserving of incarceration? Yes, because the rule of law depends on the acknowledgment of the authority of the justice system. Navarro’s refusal to even show up before Congress, as other Trump officials who are not currently in prison have done, amounted to a big middle finger to the government. It symbolized the essence of Trumpism: the belief that the law exists to be manipulated for one’s own personal benefit — to be held, if you will, in contempt.

Navarro couldn’t say that out loud, so instead he claimed that Trump had told him to invoke executive privilege. But only Trump could invoke that privilege, and Navarro offered no evidence that he had done so.

In their brief to the Supreme Court, Navarro’s lawyers pleaded the unprecedented nature of his plight as the first presidential adviser convicted of contempt of Congress after asserting executive privilege.

This has become a kneejerk plea from Trump and his allies in cases relating to Jan. 6 — never before in the nation’s history, etc. The obvious (and correct) rejoinder is: Yes, that is true. Never before in the nation’s history has a sitting president incited a violent insurrection to overthrow the government because he was mad about losing the election. It turns out there’s a first time for everything.

Maybe they didn't actually scrutinize the diary for inconsistencies? Ashley Biden had already acknowledged that it was hers. We don't know what the FBI did or didn't do ..... They haven't addressed it. You are having to surmise a lot from very little information, confirmed by the FBI.

There is no getting around your bias either. You don't want to believe that Project Veritas tampered with the diary, even though they have an established history of doing such things.

The Biden DOJ/FBI had the diary in their possession for weeks.

The same Biden DOJ/FBI that relentlessly pursued the 2 Goons to the absolute fullest extent of the law.

The idea that it was sitting there, with such salacious accusations against Joe Biden - that were obviously known to them to be forgeries - and remained untouched and undetected? Sure, Jan.

They would have immediately cleared Joe Biden, and thrown more charges at the 2 Goons.

You make your bed with Trump, you get what you deserve.

See, even that makes no sense. For that to be true, it would mean that if she showered at say 7:00, Joe would come in and join her, but if she waited until 11:00, he wouldn't. That simply doesn't add up. How old would she have to be in order to stay up past the time Joe went to bed and then shower? She would certainly be old enough to know that it was 100% inappropriate, (not possibly). She would have been old enough to now have more specific and clear memories. She would have been old enough to now say how old she was then.

Hypothetically would you vote for a man that you found out showered with their child with an erection? On a continum is cheating on your wife or showering with your teenage child with pubic hair visible more acceptable? Not that we know anyone like that.

They are certainly both pathetic. I would claim the showering one to be a little worse.

I in no way believe Biden did that.

But I do know beyond a shadow of doubt that trump cheated on his third wife who was home caring for their newborn child (his 5th with three different wives) with a porn star.....and then attempted to blackmail her into silence.

Donald Trump may be closer to bankruptcy than it seems

The former president needs more money to keep his businesses afloat, according to one financial analyst.
www.newsweek.com www.newsweek.com

From the article :

*********************************************************
*********************************************************

" 'Donald Trump may be in a worse financial situation than most people think,' a financial analyst has said.

Jon Gabrielsen, an Atlanta-based market economist, told Newsweek that Trump's liquidity problems may be more acute than they first appear, as businesses need extra cash in reserve to avoid bankruptcy.

He said Trump was '.... screwed, blued and tattooed,' unless he can come up with more cash to pay his court awards."

The most surprising aspect of this whole thing, is how little liquidity Trump seems to have.

He tried to buy her silence with cash, conditional upon her signing a non-disclosure agreement, which he could threaten her with later, if she dared to go public. Worst of all, Stormy Daniels' first attorney acted in bad faith. He was actually in league with Trump's legal team to get her to accept as little money as possible and force her to sign an NDA. He did the same thing with Karen McDougal.

Not the same thing as blackmail .... It's actually worse.

I don't know maybe he'll rely on the federal government for unemployment benefits while sitting on his derriere. Lazy fool.

Good grief, the lengths ya'll go to defend your tribe. Ya'll are what's wrong with this country, not two geriatric, egomaniacal dumb a$$e$. You all should all be ashamed of yourselves. The bad part is, all ya'll will think I'm only half right, that the other side is worse. SMDH.
