The Democrats +Cheney + Kinzinger, those J6 hearings a year ago surely helped immensely in getting it this far. Perhaps that and public sway helped MOVE Garland to appoint the Smith Special Counsel. Which, correct memory?, a special counsel removes the ability of the now R controlled House to throw a monkey wrench into the $funding$ of that group. Correct ? It’s a big relief to see Smith and soon, Judge Chutkan acting expediently and with no nonsense. Now for the Fani Willis indictment in GA !! Happy indictment summer !! Could it possibly be Smith intentionally made sure to get those J6 indictments fit into a 45 page document ?? Or, just coincidence ? Pence trying to sound like “the big man on campus” NOW is such a joke. I’m glad he had a MOMENT on J6, but too little too late to get up on a high self righteous horse now and try to sound all forced, contrived macho manly. “Mr Big Stuff” emanating from a ghostly little pale pellucid pinhead that attracts the flies, I want to raaalf. Totally not worth listening to any who were silent back then and speaking out now. Mute button.

I am wondering if others read this article from Politico? (https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2023/07/30/the-connection-between-political-lies-and-conspiracy-theories-00108378)

The argument for a neurological explanation for the fascination some of our countrymen have for an obvious lunatic like Donald Trump is fascinating!

I had a neurobiologist on my program about the topic. In fact if you look in the archives I posted the entire interview here. It may have been earlier this year or late last him. And yes, fascinating.

Didn't he also admit he knew he lost? Do they have a record of that?

Today I heard over 50% of Republicans will not vote for Trump if he is found guilty. God speed!

The orange nazi always plays the victim of fake news, witch hunts, the deep state, Hillary, Hunter BIden, and whatever else he cooks up in his degenerated mind. One juror can set this criminal free. I won't hold my breath for conviction.

Can't wait for trumpanzee to get convicted and given the choice to drop out or don the orange jumpsuit. Georgia will get him the jail time he so richly deserves. Saw the montage of concession speeches earlier mourned for days gone by when the politics weren't us vs them. Stark reality today that one party would rather democracy end than to put people before party.

Great piece Michaelangelo!

The plan is not only win the election and end the cases, but, also to poison the jury pool to get one person on the jury to stop the process. I’m convinced MAGA’s will successfully lie to get on the jury. We can hope one MAGA might emulate the MAGA Manafort juror who ‘left her MAGA hat in the car’ and rightly convicted Manafort.🤞🏻

Further thought on Atty. Lauro’s comments, added to what I said earlier: strange as it might be, is Laurie trying to set up an ‘incompetence of counsel’ argument some how?
