Trump is fucked now. Right? Right?!

I mean, jurors were caught smirking at the defense’s attempt to impeach Cohen’s credibility. And from most former prosecution and defense attorneys on actual news media that are not former Trump attorneys are saying that conviction is likely at this point unless there is a hung jury (and no, I don’t agree with those here who think there is a Trumper in the jury). The evidence is overwhelming and Trump is tied to the crime with first hand witness testimony.

The only real defense left is for Trump to take the stand and deny everything Cohen said. And we all know how that would go.

The remaining question at this point is if Trump will serve time, and if so how much?

"Friends in High Places" - Trump Trial

During Cohen’s testimony, we have this brilliant gem:

"Sleep well tonight. You have friends in high places," Costello said in the email.

"The friend in high places was President Trump," Cohen testified.


And then Trump allowed Cohen to be prosecuted and go to prison. All Jan 6 dumbasses waiting for their pardons should take note.

Michigan Republican Unseated After Losing to Democrat by 20 Points

A Republican county commissioner has been unseated in Michigan after losing to her Democratic challenger by 20 percentage points.

Chris Kleinjans won an Ottawa County election on Tuesday with 60 percent of the vote share, while the Republican incumbent Lucy Ebel lost, having received 40 percent.


This is a county that Trump won with 61 percent of the vote in 2020!

When the defense asks for a mistrial

And the judge denies on many points but one of them is that the defense didn’t object to statements, you know the defendant is fucked.

From CNN:

Judge Juan Merchan also says he was surprised there weren't more objections from Trump's team during Stormy Daniels' testimony.

"The defense has to take some responsibility for that," he says.

"When you say 'the bell has been rung,' the defense has to take some responsibility for that," Merchan adds, referring to Trump attorney Todd Blanche's argument for a mistrial in which he asked "how do you unring a bell?"


To add: the judge interjected and corrected witness during Daniels testimony when defense should have.

Trump is being brutally beat down by the Prosecution today

They are pulling excerpts from his books that disclose how tight he is with money. Even covered specifics in his books that directly relate to this case. Defense, appropriately, tried to blame ghostwriters, but prosecution was ready for that. They even used a quote from Trump’s own mother to show that Trump really is what he says he is in the books.

And Stormy is testifying after this curb stomping…

I suspect today is the day that Trump violates the gag order that gets him put in jail.

May 6, 2024

"Your continued willful violations of this court's lawful order constitute a direct attack on the rule of law,"

"Your continued willful violations of this court's lawful order constitute direct attack on the rule of law," - Judge Merchan to TSF’s face this morning in court.

Also:

"The magnitude of this decision is not lost on me but at the end of the day I have a job to do," Merchan says. "So as much as I don't want to impose a jail sanction...I want you to understand that I will if necessary and appropriate."

DEA Agrees To Reschedule Marijuana Under Federal Law In Historic Move Following Biden-Directed Health Agency’s Recommendation

The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has made a historic decision—agreeing with the top federal health agency and moving marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule III under the Controlled Substances Act (CSA).

The decision comes more than 50 years after cannabis was first listed as a strictly prohibited drug, on par with heroin and defined as a substance with no known medical value and a significant abuse potential.

Moving marijuana to Schedule III, as recommended by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), also carries major implications for state-legal cannabis businesses. When it’s implemented, it will mean that marijuana firms can officially take federal tax deductions that they’ve been barred from under an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) code known as 280E.

Kavanaugh just said Nixon pardon was one of the best Presidential decisions in history

This was during SCOTUS arguments on immunity. Gorsuch was also arguing earlier that presidents can blanket pardon themselves when leaving office and isn’t that the same thing as immunity, so why not? Biden needs to expand the court, ASAP.

NICE! Meidas Touch is playing all the times Trump referenced National Enquirer covers

During this mornings live coverage of the trial, Ben Meisalas is playing a collection of all the times Trump talked about the cover story of the National Enquirer during the 2016 election. This is evidence the DA can use to counter Trump wasn’t involved in it.

Below is a link to the live stream:
