Dang, they did it.

Good. Kyle Griffin… ”In arguing that he is entitled to official-act immunity in the cases before us, President Trump does not dispute that he engaged in his alleged actions up to and on January 6 in his capacity as a candidate," Chief Judge Sri Srinivasan wrote in the court’s opinion. "But he thinks that does not matter. Rather, in his view, a President's speech on matters of public concern is invariably an official function, and he was engaged in that function when he spoke at the January 6 rally and in the leadup to that day. We cannot accept that rationale." x.com/kylegriffin1/status/1730635514070347993?s=61&t=j45uMgNk1i8O0YllKF58nw

I'm trying to figure out why my congressman, Al Green, was one of the two Democrats who voted 'present' on the Santos expulsion. Makes no sense.

I don’t post much about trump anymore because it’s too damn depressing.
But today he is out doing himself. Besides admitting he and I guess his gang are waging war against American Democracy he has been rambling on about stuff like this…
Acyn….
“Trump claims Biden received 5 billion dollars”
&
”Trump says they want take away the water in your dishwashers “even though they don’t work” and adds they want to change the heating and cooling in your house”
”Trump: "They want to talk about your dishwashers & how much water you're going to have in your dishwasher, even though they don't work, & all the other things you have that were so precious & dear, & that you never really appreciated until now because they want to take them away"
&
”Trump: "I will not rest until your family can afford a beautiful home and a brand new beautiful car of your choice.". Didn’t there use to be saying along these lines of “a chicken in every pot”.
&
”Trump accuses Biden of trying to buy votes by building bridges”
&
This one…
”Trump: The most important part of what is coming up is to guard the vote, and you should go into Detroit, Philadelphia, and some of these places, Atlanta, and you should go into some of these places, and we have to watch those votes..”
Got this response and I don’t disagree with it…
“It sure seems like trump wants his people to practice Voter intimidation.”
&
This…
”Trump: But I think if you had a real election and Jesus came down and God came down and said, I'm going to be the scorekeeper here, I think would win there(California), I think we would win in Illinois, and I think we would win in New York,”
Prompted this and again I agree
“I'm actually grateful that he says stuff like this because him claiming he'd win California and New York gives the whole game away that he's just full of shit.”
&
”Trump: He can’t— He can’t— he doesn’t know anything. He can’t put two sentences together and he’s negotiating our nuclear package with Kim Jong-un who won’t talk to him but he likes me… he likes me”
🤦🏻♀️
&
”Trump: We did it for four years. That’s why it was one of the great presidencies they say. Even the opponents sometimes say he did very well. I have to say take it back, they scream, his people”
And he claims President Biden doesn’t make any sense?

Ron Filipkowski…
”The people in these audiences at this point are just swimming around in the muck of a post-truth Trump world where no lie, no matter how preposterous, even fazes them anymore because they are so desensitized by the overwhelming blizzard of them.”
He may have a valid point.

Here’s a review for some movie on Netflix. We don’t see a movie about someone devoid of morals. We just watch the news and watch what trump and his supporters are doing. The last thing that group has is any sort of a moral compass.
“THE KILLER REVIEW: "He may not look it, but Fassbender’s a murder virtuoso in the masterful movie. David Fincher directs another thrilling sensory experience about someone devoid of morals." - Chicago Sun-TimesTHE KILLER REVIEW: "He may not look it, but Fassbender’s a murder virtuoso in the masterful movie.

Interesting .... Jared and Ivanka arranged a meeting in NYC: Qatar PM and Jewish business men... Big names too.. Scoop: Kushner, Jewish business leaders huddle with Qatari PM Barak Ravid Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump organized a private meeting in New York last Wednesday with Qatar's prime minister and a bipartisan group mostly of Jewish businessmen and billionaires, three sources with direct knowledge of the meeting tell Axios. Why it matters: Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed Bin Abdulrahman Al Thani has been a key player in mediating talks between Israel and Hamas during their ongoing war — especially negotiations over the talks over on the issue of release hostages held by the terrorist group in Gaza. Zoom in: A source who attended the meeting said the Qatari prime minister spoke about his country's efforts to release the hostages in Gaza and answered several questions about Qatar's relationship with Hamas. Sheikh Mohammed also was the leading point of contact for the Trump and Biden administrations on Afghanistan for several years when Qatar hosted a Taliban office. Kushner and the Qatari prime minister became close during the Trump administration, when they led negotiations on ending a rift between Qatar and other Arab nations in the Persian Gulf. The agreement to end the crisis was signed two weeks before Donald Trump left the presidency. Driving the news: The Qatari prime minister was in New York to speak at a UN Security Council meeting on the crisis in Gaza, alongside several other Arab foreign ministers. He arrived there during the negotiations to extend the ceasefire in Gaza in return for Hamas agreeing to release more women and children it has held hostage since the terror group's Oct. 7 attack on Israel. The big picture: Qatar has been under increasing pressure and scrutiny by members of Congress and Jewish organizations over the nation's relationship with Hamas. **" Between the lines: Sheikh Mohammed told the group Qatar's close relations with Hamas and the hosting of the terror group in Doha started in 2006 with the support of the Bush administration, an attendee in the meeting said. After leaving Trump's White House, Kushner established a private equity fund that raised money for investments in the Persian Gulf region. A Qatari company invested about $200 million in Kushner's fund, according to the New York Times. (And much more..vvvv..) www.axios.com/2023/12/04/jared-kushner-jewish-business-leaders-qatar

No Labels.... Leiberman is now admitting they want to run a bipartisan candidate 2024.. Should Nikki Haley fail in the 2024 presidential race — she can write her own second act as a third party candidate."I have a lot of admiration for Nikki Haley," former Democrat and "No Labels," founding chair Joe Lieberman told Neal Cavuto during an appearance on Fox News' "Your World." "I haven't spoken at all to her about this. But it is true; some of our big supporters know her well. I wouldn't be surprised if they are talking with her." Lieberman tried to explain that whatever chatter might be happening between his centrist political organization, it's all preamble. "But honestly, she is focused on the Republican primary campaign, and she seems to be doing pretty well," he said. "If for some reason that did not work out and we decided we were going to run a ticket —I think there would be a lot of people in 'No Labels' who would be happy to give consideration to Nikki Haley." "She's proven herself," he claimed. "No Labels" has ratcheted its effort to become an alternative to the Democratic and Republican parties, most recently courting Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) to possibly give a 2024 presidential campaign a go against President Joe Biden. *** What we are doing is so unusual," he said. "We are talking about running a bipartisan third choice ticket because the American people don't really want to choose between Trump and Biden and they are disgusted with the two major parties... We are totally focused on getting on the ballots around the country." *** "No Labels" is already "active in 27 states," and Lieberman noted that in the New Year, they plan on establishing a committee not simply to co-exist but to have a legitimate chance at victory. .... ..... www.rawstory.com/joe-lieberman-touts-republican-president/

I don’t like Manchin but Halley. I think she could actually draw quite a few away from both parties. I would hope more republicans but it could get interesting. Of course I want the Dems to win it outright I don’t want it being decided by the house. She’s smart snd driven very articulate but unfortunately there are too many things I disagree with her on. I do think she is the least horrible of the republicans running at this point though.

I have a dear friend who is a political fundraiser. she has seen biden up close in the last few weeks.. going to parties at white house for the holidays.
she and her husband (who goes to some events) both say he moves like an older guy, but his wit and brain are as sharp as ever. they have no qualms about his intellect at this point.. none at all. they also know kamala.. and she is far smarter and clever than the press makes her out to be.

There is WAY too much money pouring into no labels from FAR RIGHT donors, not center or just right but far right. Not only far right donors but ones who have strong FASCIST ties and are Nazi enthusiasts. How Joe Lieberman could be heavily involved with Nazi enthusiasts is beyond me. Choices like that make me question either his mental competence or his ethics or both.

Oh my ... Judge won't delay fraud trial to wait for appeal on the gag order. They are the ones who screwed up the filing!! On Tuesday, attorneys for Trump asked the judge to put Trump's Monday testimony on hold while they appealed a gag order that prevents plaintiffs or defendants from referring to court staff. Trump has previously attacked one of the judge's clerks by name on social media. "Defense lawyers just asked the court to postpone Donald Trump's testimony scheduled for Monday (Dec. 11). They don't want him to testify while his gag order appeal is being reviewed," Erik Uebelacker reported for Courthouse News. "Absolutely not, no way, no how," the judge replied.
"It's a non-starter. But you tried."Attorneys for Trump are appealing the gag order after it was reinstated when they lost a previous appeal. www.rawstory.com/donald-trump-testimony-gag-order/
