Grand jury transcripts won’t necessarily include the clients and associates. The evidence presented to a grand jury is relevant to Epstein’s guilt, something we already know.
This is an attempt by Trump to appear transparent, move the goalposts, and then claim that critics can never be satisfied.
Maybe it’s her son, grown up, and cursed with the same “magic” that makes his visage mirror the attitude of the people under his charge.
And he works as a middle manager at a Walmart.
Politicians lie. People seeking positions of power and influence should be treated with heavy skepticism and scrutiny. Whether they are ideologues or charlatans, their motivations should be measured against their actions. Some ideologues may hide their extremism to gain power. Some charlatans may hide their indifference to gain power. But anyone who’s actions don’t match their promises shouldn’t earn your vote, regardless of whether they wear your colors or not.
IIRC there was a precedent that police aren’t expected to know the law, as long as they act “in good faith” under their best understanding of the law. This resulted in an almost immediate end to all attempts to provide legal training to police, because ignorance of the law is actually a defense, but only for cops.
You can’t always tell when an article isn’t about an incident in the USA, unless they feel the need to specify that the police were armed.
Does someone in the room with Trump understand that California provides more federal taxes than they receive? A high-speed rail line would almost certainly pay for itself ten times over.
I encourage anyone who feels like this is a good idea to do it, if only because it will make them much easier to identify.
They did that, too. They released redacted flight logs and documents that were heavily edited, but it was impossible to remove all references to Trump and various oligarchs they’d like to protect, so they stopped.
You don’t even know how bad it could be.
I know, the first time someone said it, he wasn’t there, and I was like… wait, are we just fucking with Matt? And everyone said no, he is a dad of young kids who does shift work. He drinks a lot of coffee (we all did, the coffee machine was perpetual employee of the month), and he prefers to have it room temperature because he won’t feel it burn his mouth. So any time a pot sat on the burner for more than a few hours, we’d dump it into Matt’s pot and let it cool.
I always wondered if it fucked up his stomach, because I know stale coffee always gives me heartburn, but we weren’t close enough to have those conversations.
I worked with a guy who had neck surgery that severed the nerves to his taste buds. We worked overnight shifts, and we’d save the old coffee for him because he didn’t mind the flavor of burnt coffee. There was always a pot of fresh coffee brewing and a pot of stale coffee set aside for Matt.
The crazy part about Fetterman is that he wasn’t tied down by the Democratic leadership. They backed McCormick, a pro-business centrist, during the senate primary, and they didn’t want him as lieutenant governor before that. He was a progressive wildcard that touted his independence from the party. He was always pro-Israel, but he was also pro-healthcare for all, pro-marijuana legalization, supported human rights and a progressive tax code. His heel-turn has been shocking and baffling, and lost him most of his supporters. Fetterman could be primaried from the left or yhe right, and he will probably lose either way. He could switch parties, but there aren’t enough batshit Republicans in PA to make up for his flaws.
Dude misunderstood the assignment.
The thing is, I can relate a bit. I voted for Fetterman, and I have been extremely disappointed by his turnaround.
The difference is, Fetterman is not doing what he said he would do. Trump is doing exactly what he said he would do.
She stuck with him through the corruption and the cheating.
I understand why he’s a threat to them, I just don’t understand their battle strategy. Everything they do to attack him elevates his profile and makes actual Democrats suspicious of the oligarchs.
Sure, but again, he’s the mayor. He can’t set financial policy for the banks of the world. NYC has a huge administrative budget, but it ends at the five boroughs. He can’t be like “All UN delegates have to end all wars.” He has authority over city administrative issues, and it looks like Trump is going to go after him personally.
Important things happen in his city, and that makes him the most powerful mayor in the country. But that’s like being the tallest elementary school student. And the job is a career killer. The last NYC mayor to be elected to higher office was in 1869.
So much god-damned attention on a fucking mayoral race. Sure, it’s NYC, but he’s still just the mayor. Like they could have just ignored him and sapped the energy from his win, and then primaried him when his term was up.
It’s just further evidence that the Democratic leadership is entirely inept.
Someday, that old planter will become a fountain.
I believe Trump and Epstein were friends, and that Trump is a rapist, and that Trump knew Epstein was trafficking and raping children, because those are all things Trump has admitted or confirmed out loud into a microphone on camera. I don’t need additional proof of any of those things, but I would not be surprised to learn that it exists in the Epstein files.
Trump also denied all of those things, but that’s not he said/she said where you have to present both sides as though they are equal. A man who constantly changes his story is not a credible source of information, and his denials can be dismissed outright.
