Reply to N.Y. case against Trump over hush money to porn star goes to grand jury Monday by TheSausageKing
Just to be clear, Trump's lawyer went to prison for felonies that included this one. He did it at Trump's direction, and used Trump's money for the payoff. He went to prison for it.
When asked about it, Trump of course lied.

I'm not sure. I saw one documentary about a NK soldier who defected and got away to the South. He was grossly underfed, and had worms. Soldiers supposedly get better food than the regulars.

Hmm, platform of hate and anti-Semitism. Won't pay their bills. Right wing billionaire floundering at the top.
Sounds familiar.

Good thing they spent all that money on missiles and weapons to threaten their neighbors. That should keep them safe.

It violates someone's religion if a 10-year old rape victim gets an abortion? Their God says the child must be forced to have the baby?
Pretty pathetic God if you ask me.

Reply to Air Force quietly speeds up plans to eliminate spy planes on the front line of America's fentanyl war by jivatman
The headline isn't very clear. Congress decided to eliminate the plane, not the Air Force. Without funding, the Air Force can't keep flying the plane.
All this article says is that the Air Force decided to speed up the inevitable termination of the plane and its mission, and use drones instead.

A large conspiracy with many people and lots of moving parts. Even today, many Republicans support Trump, despite the obvious corruption and criminality. Or perhaps because of it.
None of the planners and leaders have even been charged, while many of the bottom-level operatives are already in prison with multiple year sentences.

Standard operating procedure for Trump: sue to delay the process. Then appeal, and keep appealing.

Reply to Trump Aide, Granted Immunity, Set to Testify at Grand Jury Probing Mar-a-Lago Documents by hoosakiwi
As William Cohen (Republican Sec of Defense) said, "If I had even one of those documents at my home, I'd be in handcuffs already."

Reply to Ex-Capitol Police officer charged with obstruction tells jury he is 'embarrassed' by Facebook chat with Jan. 6 rioter by drakejones99
Did Riley know that there was a coordinated conspiracy that tried to overthrow the election and install a dictator?
Did he agree with that sentiment?
Or was he duped into thinking it was just another demonstration? America has always been pretty tolerant of demonstrations.

It's on video. When asked about the check to the porn star, Trump claimed he knew nothing about it, and they should ask Cohen. Of course, then Cohen produced the check that had Trump;s signature on it.
