Lifting up rocks and seeing what tries to skitter away
@Jeremy Backup
On gawd
That is actually a pretty good analogy to a financial investigation.
Rock Spiders..
Maddow: “Like switching on a light and the cockroaches all scatter”…still a golden quip.
Lol!! Hilarious.
“Lock him up, lock him up!!”
just practicing for his wedding night!!!!!!!!
Trump turned the swamp into Jurassic Park.
He turned it into a cesspool
Lol!
He is the Golgothan!
@Pete Carroll Not to mention that a lot are here in the dumb south!
@Jake A A septic tank with corpses floating on it…
“Possible this, possible that.” You mean… on top of all the thousands of crimes we already know he’s guilty of?
Do people really not understand how the US legal system works? If someone is accused of something that doesn’t make them guilty in the legal sense (even if it is fairly obvious to everyone that they are in fact guilty in a responsibility sense).
Evidence needs to be collected, subpoenas need to be issued, deals are made, all the evidence needs to be cross referenced, depending on the jurisdiction and alleged crime a grand jury needs to decide whether or not it goes to trial at all. If it goes to trial the discovery phase begins, when additional evidence is collected.
If Trump stands trial before the end of the year that will have been quick.
I understand that people are frustrated, because it feels like this takes a long time, but I thought the whole point was that we agree it’s bad that Trump doesn’t follow the law and now people seem mad that the law is followed when it comes to punishing him for it.
The alternative is that we hear nothing about potential trials, until they actually start which will be a long time from now. If you prefer that, you are free to not just watch any coverage that doesn’t say “Trump indicted/on trial”.
Its just a distraction from the bad job biden does, the fraud and to scare future patriots from running.
@Creative Designation He’ll be dead before he gets to trial. He’s about to turn 75 & is in bad health. They’re going after his adult children.
I know, really. This game has gone on for too long, even while being a president. Is this how easy it has been to defraud our government and all? And it was from the inside out. Trump, nothing but a drag for our country.
@Creative Designation No wonder he has gotten away with everything so far ,and he knows it.
Somewhere, one failed blogger is heard screaming: WITCH HUNT!!!
That’s how it ends. The Trump family in a cell with Trump mumbling ‘Witchunt’ as the kids tell him to STFU already 🤣
@warpedjaffas1 🤣🤣🤣👍
* In smoke signals..
More like rich hunt.
i think that would be michael rice!
A 35 YEAR Trump org exec flipped. The “just a coffee boy ” defense won’t work for Trump , this time. Weisselberg should just give up Trump, at this point.
@No Middle Name NMN I hope the prosecutors remember that, she KNOWS right from wrong and ridiculously tries to dodge out of it.
@Sam Huff not sure that defense will hold up in court if charges are filed.
It’s either that or he can rot in the federal slammer with Donald Trump.
@hpqz hpqz or out of federal jail.
“I get my picture taken with lots of people. I may have known him. I don’t know.”
All the people that were pardoned by Trump, have already committed federal offenses to put them back in prison!! Stone, Flynn, Giuliani, newness, etc. etc.
Link?
…and Flynn’s brother, Charles.
I think we are way past “trouble.” I would call it dire straits. Or jeopardy.
“Possible” money laundering?’ I’d bet my children on it.
@Michael Rice Hahahahaha. You nailed it. Hahahahaha!
@kc bh
The thing is, he can’t demonstrate a single claim.
Trumpers don’t need evidence.
I am sure your kids are thrilled to hear that. That is some great parenting on your part. Bravo.
@Baba Baba That tiny little thing?
@Michael Rice Stop drinking the kool-aid bruh.
And let the games begin.
🍊🤡For the Perp Walk modeling a one piece orange jumpsuit. Big round of Applause folks, 🍊🤡 is going to be re-instated in Rikers Island in August . mike the Pillow Salesman told him, so it must be true
HAHA indeed…
Brand New Tube, Lbry, Odysee, Rumble and Bitchute have un cen sored news: videos on these platforms: Plan demic parts 1 and 2….video: crimes against humanity Reiner Fuellmich….video: vir uses are not alive!….its about five g radi ation not a vir us….mamm. org that Stands for Millions Against Medical Mandates….try Duck Duck Go as a search engine….Dr. Sherri Tenpenny and Dr. Rashid Buttar tell the truth about the va x on Brand New tube……
Let have trial by combat, lol
@Spirit Miracle Brand new account selling the same old hokey bull$hit. The two ‘doctors’ you referred to are discredited quacks selling their own bogus ‘miracle cures’ and are long time anti vaxxers.
Trump 2020: “Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV.”
Trump 2021: “Prison. Guard. Jumpsuit. Cell. Bars.”
Thank you for the one comment in this section that is not stupid.
There might still be hope for humanity. 👍
Cheers, have a good day.
Can anyone spell PERP WALK Rikers Island Haircut 💇♂️
I fear it will be (ankle) bracelet, golf, eat, sleep, repeat.
no trump will do jail time so quit dreaming
@Robert Beaulieu Naah, not jail. Prison.
Give me two weisselburgers and a Trump steak. Hold the flies.
Loooooolll 🙌
you cant hold the flies on that, they are there if you like em or not 😜
@Jan Alexander oh, lets be couth – they should be BROILED BLACK AND BLUE, seasoned with a ton of manure they all seem to love so much.
Thanks for your comment …, i needed that.
You did mean flies and not fries didn’t you? .cause flies is certainly appropriate.
I wouldn’t feed a trump steak 🥩 to my dog 🐕 She deserves much better.
Like Icarus, the family may finally have flown too close to the sun.
Umm, no! That’s spray tan.
Nice, perhaps too early for a mythical reference … However when a future Shakespeare writes about this in a couple hundred years it could probably be the underlying theme 😊
They can only fool some of the people some of the time, but now the Jig is up.👏👏👏🎼🎼
This is what happens when flawed mortals believe they are above the laws of God and humankind.
Russia, Ukraine, China are among 100 countries with no extradition treaties with US. Also Saudi Arabia, which gave Agent Orange a gold necklace on his first overseas trip as prez.
He is gaining weight big time!! He must be downing THE burgers!!! Stress is really getting him! His LAWYERS must be very busy!!!
I hope the Lawyers don’t work too hard because there NOT going to get paid 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Stormy said he told her he has always hated to wear condoms. STD’s affect mental as well as physical facilities. OCD isn’t pretty.
Does Weisselberg love Donald over his own Children..?
State and Federal now truly understand how Donald “works”
Tick Tock Goes the Clock on indictments Tock Tick …
He no doubt loves not being murdered in a jail cell more than his children.
@BKR Thank you! You just read the Trumps’ minds. When The Desk of Donald J. Trump shut up and closed down, I knew this was enormous.
No wonder trump is hoping to be “reinstated” to the presidency by august 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Do not worry. The Democrats have a plan which is equally likely to succeed… They’re bringing back JFK.
Trump knew he was in trouble long ago! He thought with Russia’s help, Putin and Trump would make it permanent for him to stay as a illegal president!
Exactly. Every time the investigation goes deeper there’s another election audit 😂
@Hydrocarbon82 BUT he CANT do any of that, he is JUST a gobshite, he doesn’t have a brain, it is all image and a great big FAKE image at that
Exactly!!
Money laundering….
From Russia
I’d bet the farm on it. 😎
I’m sure there will be lots of other charges.
@Elaine McCarty Oh Elaine, you’re so wrong and so lost.
Sure, but if might be hard to prove
You got a farm? If not, you may be on thin legal ground. . If you haven´t got anything that could be described as a “farm”, your best bet is to buy one right away!
If you have got a farm, you´ll need to put it into escrow. There´ll be some considerable legal fees. Trump may help you out.
Yep. Nothing that SOB Trump would do surprises me anymore. We’ve all pretty much known everything about Trump since the ’80’s. He was a failed businessman then with a large streak of larceny coursing thru his veins and he has remained so. He has learned nothing over the past 70 years. In fact I’d be surprised if he could tie his own shoes. All kidding aside, the man is a criminal who’s left a trail of failed businesses and unpaid debts flapping around him like the piece of toilet paper stuck to his shoes in that famous and revealing video. That news clip showed us all what his staff and senior aides really thought of him.
@D Ross But still, the American people voted him into office. Amazing!
The orange man thinks he is going to be reinstated in August, with any luck his outfit will match his fake tan by August.
I could not have made that guy up!
Just hideous in every way
Reinstated all that orange dye has gone to what is left of his brain
Reinstated as Americas most craziest person.
Talk to the guy that was in charge of the Casino he bankrupted… Liars and thieves
Bankruptcy is an old trick. They pay themselves big bucks as bonuses and put it on the tax payers. Every business Bush jr ran was put into bankruptcy…
O’Donnell. He’s got plenty to say!
The ultrarich would rather destroy living for everyone and everything than obeying to laws of democracy.
Indeed. They are a disgrace, and everyone that supports them.
Because they are bad.
