1/ Husband just now: You’ve got a problem (said in THAT tone)

Me: wonders what one of “my” children has done now

Husband: The black chick is out of the coddler.
2/ The black chick, whose name is Poe, has greeted me from this interesting perch atop his water bottle the last few mornings. (Despite the sort of freaky lip smacking, the dogs have been very good about this)
It was only a matter of time.
I had really hoped to keep them in the coddler until they hit 8 weeks old. There’s now a big piece of screen from the coop extension my kids are building on top of the coddler. But I don’t think Poe is going to cooperate. Image

1/This is an utterly astonishing message for a candidate for the presidency to embrace. And, just a clue, it's not about virtues.

It starts with a command-even if you can't stand Trump, you must get behind him.

Has any candidate ever run like that? It gets worse.
2/GOP voters shouldn't care if he's a conservative, a role model for children, or modest & dignified--I suppose that's a good message because Trump is none of the things quite obviously.

The tone & pacing of the video carries an echo of WWII fascism that makes me feel queasy.
3/The important message Trump endorses about himself? "He knows we're in a war" & "he know how to win."

Who is the enemy? It's us. You & me. It's Democrats. It's anyone who doesn't support Trump, anyone who is other. Believe him when he tells us who he is before it's too late.

1/Judge Cannon has just denied Trump's motion to dismiss the classified documents case in Florida. Trump had argued the Presidential Records Act gave him the ability to designate classified material as personal records, shielding him from prosecution under the Espionage Act. Image
2/ In what looks, at least at first glance, like an effort at saving face, Judge Cannon also vigorously denies what she characterizes as the Special Counsel's request for a final decision on jury instructions. Image
3/The Judge's characterization of what Special Counsel asked for is incorrect. He wanted a ruling on the Presidential Records Act motion, the ruling she has now delivered. And she ruled in his favor.

Judge Cannon ducked ruling on Trump's motion to dismiss the classified documents case based on the Presidential Records Act, instead asking lawyers to submit jury instructions assuming it did. Special Counsel's Office isn't buying it. Image
2/That's because if the Judge doesn't rule ahead of trial she can dismiss the prosecution during trial & in that posture the government can't appeal because of double jeopardy. So it was clear they would have to force her hand at this point.
3/It's unusual for fed'l prosecutors to be this aggressive with a judge & well warranted here. She left them with no other choice.

1/Imagine the impact Trump has on potential witnesses & jurors when he targets a Judge's daughter, a POTUS. If Trump can get away with that, then what protection do regular folks have if they take the witness stand against him or vote to convict?
2/Judges are obligated, to protect the integrity of the proceedings in their courtrooms. If Trump can slash & burn his way through the system, there is an enormous risk jurors & witnesses will be intimidated & turn away from their duty out of fear for their & loved ones’ safety.
3/When Trump targeted Judge Engoron’s law clerk a court security official reported she was subject to constant threats & harassment. Trump knows what he’s doing. Trump is out on bond in 4 criminal cases. The Judges must step in & prevent Trump from continuing.

1/On Tuesday, the Judge in the Manhattan DA’s criminal case against Trump entered a narrow, limited gag order against the former president. And it turns out that what it doesn’t prohibit is as important as what it does. nycourts.gov/LegacyPDFS/pre…
Image
2/Trump can’t talk about witnesses or jurors. He can’t talk about court staff, the DA’s staff, or the staff of any of the lawyers. He can’t talk about the lawyers. The exception is that he can talk about the DA himself. The Judge and his family also remain fair game.
3/That’s because there is some sense that it’s unseemly for a judge or top prosecutor to protect themselves. And most of the time that makes sense, because it’s unnecessary. But this is Trump. He takes what’s not in the gag order as an invitation to go there.

1/Last Monday, Trump’s lawyers told the court they had tried—and failed—to get a bond. They asked the court for a stay or an alternative to a full bond. They said “the court may consider ‘any relevant factor, including...any exigency or hardship confronting any party.’” Image
2/So what is the “exigency or hardship”? The Trump team claimed that despite “diligent efforts” "a bond in the judgment's full amount is ‘a practical impossibility.’" The wrote that
the bond requires "reserves approaching $1 billion … is unprecedented for a private company.”
3/You’ll be stunned to learn that isn’t exactly true. Even Fox News told its audience it wasn’t the case. Politifact concluded companies have posted appeals bonds of $1 billion or more, 2x the surety Trump was to provide, altho more for large companies that family owned co's. Image
