The chicken ship is complaining he never got to confront E Jean Carroll. The judge gave him three extra days after the defense rested what a lying piece of crap.

The only lying piece of crap is that Carroll woman. As far as I know she produced no evidence that the so called assault ever occurred but don't let that bother you in the Long March to Get Trump. Trouble is it's such an obvious kangaroo verdict it's not going to hurt his reelection chances at all and may even enhance them.

The court did not agree.

Well those of my friends who dislike him-Is celebrating his defeat in the court.

Wonder if I should post following in the comment thread.

He's not going to jail and he's still running as a Rep candidate.
And he's favorite to win this.

Civil court in an anti-trump district. The best result your side has been able to produce thus far after 6 years of trying.

He lost because he’s a liar lying in a civil case about his lying. He lost because he was too cowardly to even show up and defend himself and now he’s lying about that. He will lose all the upcoming trials because he’s a liar and a coward.

I think losing court cases is likely what he’s most successful at.

Trump will most likely win on appeal.

Narcissists feed and thrive on attention and thanks to democrats and left wing libtard haters and media they created their own monster and unwittingly turned him into superstar. With all the attention provided and paid for by Democrats donations to Trump are pouring in and he now has very good chance running and winning in 2024.

Blame the Democrats for debacle 2024

Appeal what? The defense had no case and Trump is on record waiving his right to testify.

When did this change to the appeals process happen?

[Buddahaid]

No change. An appeal will get denied as frivolous like all his other appeals.

NEW - House Oversight reveals the nine Biden family members that received wire transfers from foreign nationals via shell companies.

1. Hunter Biden
2. James Biden
3. Sara Biden
4. Hallie Biden
5. Kathleen Biden
6. Melissa Biden
7. Niece/nephew
8. Niece/nephew
9. Grandchild


I notice Ashley Biden isn’t on the list of lying family of criminals and grifters. But then she probably doesn’t want anything to do an incestuous father.

Ashley Biden on Joe Biden:

"Showers w/ my dad (probably not appropriate."

"Was I molested? ... I think so."

[Onkel Neal]

Man, Biden finally getting exposed. No big secret, but finally good to see.

House Republicans on Wednesday released their latest report on the Biden family’s business ties, and one conclusion is that it’s good to be related to Joseph Robinette Biden. Hunter Biden and his relatives traded profitably off the Biden name with transactions that suggest the main family business is influence peddling.

House Oversight Chair James Comer’s staff report shows in detail that Hunter had extensive dealings with unsavory foreign actors. This yielded millions of dollars for Biden family members via a web of shell companies that would be hard to untangle without subpoena power. Why so much complexity?

The 36-page report shows Biden family members and business associates created nearly 20 separate entities shortly before and during Joe Biden’s Vice Presidency. The entities with obscure names—Hudson West III, Hudson West V, Owascu, JBB SR INC—transferred cash from foreign entities. Bank records show that more than $10 million was delivered to Biden family members, associates and companies from these foreign entities, and in curious ways.

In some cases “Biden associates would receive significant deposits from foreign sources,” then “transfer smaller, incremental payments to Biden bank accounts,” the report says. These “complicated and seemingly unnecessary” transactions appeared to be an “effort to conceal the source and total amount received from the foreign companies.”

Got a feeling this impeachment is gonna stick.

Trump's statements in CNN's townhall do not bode well. Mercy God America and everyone else if this mentally deranged crook were to become president again. Which seems too likely. It would be an intellectual bankruptcy of America even greater than six years ago.


Man darf sowas nicht für Machtausübung legitimieren. Man darf es ganz einfach nicht.


Maybe some Cicero, anyone?

{1.} [1] L "The commonwealth of Rome is founded firm | On ancient customs and on men of might." **
Our poet seems to have obtained these words, so brief and true, from an oracle. For neither men alone, unless a State is supplied with customs too, nor customs alone, unless there have also been men to defend them, could ever have been sufficient to found or to preserve so long a commonwealth whose dominion extends so far and wide. Thus, before our own time, the customs of our ancestors produced excellent men, and eminent men preserved our ancient customs and the institutions of their forefathers. [2] L But though the republic, when it came to us, was like a beautiful painting, whose colours, however, were already fading with age, our own time not only has neglected to freshen it by renewing the original colours, but has not even taken the trouble to preserve its configuration and, so to speak, its general outlines. For what is now left of the "ancient customs" on which he said "the commonwealth of Rome" was "founded firm" ? They have been, as we see, so completely buried in oblivion that they are not only no longer practised, but are already unknown. And what shall I say of the men ? For the loss of our customs is due to our lack of men, and for, this great evil we must not only give an account, but must even defend ourselves in every way possible, as if we were accused of capital crime. For it is through our own faults, not by any accident, that we retain only the form of the commonwealth, but have long since lost its substance.

The West is heading into deep and worrisome inner conflict, it may not openly break out during my remainign lifetime, but it will happen during late this century, I am sure. You cannot mount so much inner tension into a structure without expecting it to burst sooner or later.
