@skutfarcus :

NYC needs special wayfinding signs.

Trump's legal team failed to ask for a jury trial in his New York fraud case. I don't see how that would be to his advantage. *snicker *

@skutfarcus :

"Former Donald Trump chief of staff John Kelly appeared to confirm reports of comments the former president made about those who served in the military in a new statement to CNN.In the statement, the retired U.S. Marine Corps general, 73, described Trump, 77, as "a person that thinks those who defend their country in uniform, or are shot down or seriously wounded in combat, or spend years being tortured as POWs are all 'suckers' because 'there is nothing in it for them".
Speaking further into the former commander-in-chief's view towards service members, he shared that Trump "is a person that did not want to be seen in the presence of military amputees because 'it doesn't look good for me.'"His comments confirmed portions of a 2020 article by The Atlantic that reported that Trump told Kelly while visiting the Arlington National Cemetery on Memorial Day 2017: "I don't get it. What was in it for them?"Kelly's son Robert, was killed at the age of 29 while serving in Afghanistan in 2010. According to the outlet, Kelly and Trump were standing by Robert's grave when the former president made his comments.While the publication reported that Kelly declined to comment at the time, an unidentified friend of Kelly told the outlet that Trump "can't fathom the idea of doing something for someone other than himself."

@skutfarcus : None of this is a surprise. What is, is why it has taken so long to be confirmed. F' this Russian operative POS.

Dump gets told to ****, FINALLY!!!Fraud trial judge hits Trump with gag order for bogus claims about court staff
www.the-independent. com/news/world/ameri cas/us-politics/trum p-clerk-fraud-t
Across the first two days of a trial inside a Manhattan courtroom, Donald Trump has sat quietly for hours alongside his attorneys while listening to arguments and testimony in a case stemming from a multi-million dollar fraud lawsuit from New York's attorney general.

 

But just steps outside the courtroom, moments before and after entering, and in statements through his campaign and on social media, the former president has insulted the judge presiding over his case and spread false claims about the chief clerk seated next to him.

 

Mr Trump has labelled the judge a "disgrace" and baselessly accused him of corruption. During a break in the trial on 2 October, a post on his Truth Social account falsely accused court clerk Alison Greenfield of being Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer's "girlfriend" and posted a link to her Instagram account.

 

He claimed that Ms Greenfield is "running the case against" him. Ms Greenfield has been seated to the judge's right throughout the trial, directly in front of Mr Trump and his legal team.

 

The post was deleted a short time later.

 

"This trial is a rigged trial," Mr Trump said during an impromptu press conference in the hallway outside the courtroom during a break on Tuesday. "You saw what was just put out about [Chuck] Schumer and the principal clerk - that is disgraceful."

 

Following a lunch recess, the judge - known for his bone-dry sense of humour - returned to the bench to deliver a stone-cold warning against Mr Trump, without having to name him.

 

Judge Engoron said that "one of the defendants posted from a social media account a disparaging, untrue and personally identifying post about a member of my staff" - a post that that the judge said he ordered to be deleted.

 

But it "was also emailed out to millions of other recipients," he added.

 

"Personal attacks on my members of my court staff are unacceptable, inappropriate and I will not tolerate them under any circumstances," Judge Engoron said. He added that he warned counsel one day earlier but his warning "was disregarded."

 

"Consider this statement a gag order from posting, emailing or speaking publicly about any members of my staff," he said.
...

A bogus or false claim from Donald Trump! Gee, where have we heard that before. Actions have consequences. His should be no access to any phone, tablet, laptop or PC during this civil court proceeding.
