I hope Trump files a counter-suit for wrongful prosecution and depravation of rights under color of law.

It doesn’t matter how bad the case is. The point is to arrest President Trump and tie him down for 2024.

“Too bad the DA doesn’t have a really serious crime to charge Trump. Something like a parking ticket or jaywalking. I’ll bet Trump has broken the pooper-scooper laws many times.“

I heard that he was once heard whistling a dirty tune. While jaywalking after illegally parking his car and not curbing his dog.

The Morning Briefing: Democrats’ Daddy Issues With Trump Aren’t Going to Work Out Well for Them!

American Democrats are continuing their descent into a Trump-induced madness from which there obviously won’t be any return. They’ve escalated their insane war on Donald Trump to a point that has the potential to backfire in grand fashion. They really didn’t think this one through. Then again, they haven’t thought any of their Trump tantrums through. They’re blinded by rage and won’t stop until they get some red meat footage for the 14 viewers who still watch MSNBC and CNN.

Robert writes that the arrest of Trump that was originally planned for Tuesday may no longer be happening:

But now it turns out that the Manhattan district attorney’s office, which has Trump in its sights, just may be stepping back from the brink:

Business Insider reported Saturday night that Trump’s indictment is “on hold” until one more witness testifies Monday afternoon.

At first, it wasn’t clear who the witness would be, but Matt wrote last night that we now know his identity:

A source with knowledge of the “hush-money” investigation has confirmed to the New York Times that Rudy Giuliani lawyer Robert Costello, a former legal advisor to Michael Cohen, will be appearing before the grand jury on Monday with the sole intention of undermining Cohen’s credibility.

That shouldn’t be difficult to do as Cohen doesn’t have any credibility. It’s not likely that whatever Costello has to say will be enough to change New York County District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s mind — he’s chomping at the bit to get his moment in the media as the guy who finally “got” Trump, no matter how fleeting the victory is.

This insane vendetta could make Trump so untouchable that he will be able to overcome the baked-in margin of mail-in ballot fraud with ease next year.

I think the NYC district attorney has another problem: how will he find 12 unbiased peers of Donald Trump in a 70-mile radius? NYC has been losing its big-dollar citizens to other states like Florida.

Bill Clinton. Jack Kennedy. Did they get the same treatment?

The article mentions the 2 year Statute of Limitation for Misdemeanors, and the absolutely ludicrous basis for upping the charge to a felony. But the Statute of Limitation for a Felony is five years, which has also expired. Nothing about this prosecution is tenable except the corrupt venue.

No, I think it was probably a limerick.
