    1. I wouldn't call that a conviction with much conviction.

      "Judge Juan Merchan did not sentence the president-elect to prison, and instead sentenced him to an unconditional discharge, meaning there is no punishment imposed: no jail time, fines or probation. The sentence also preserves Trump's ability to appeal the conviction."

      Merchan even wished him "Godspeed" in his second term.

    2. Listen to the audio

      The prosecutor was scathing in his remarks. But it means nothing.

    3. It kind of pisses me off that the Prosecutor worded it that they are letting him off “for the sake of the people” who deserve to have their incoming President be unencumbered. Hey! Don’t leave that on my shoulders! I do not want it!! Make my day...put him in an orange jumpsuit!

  7. This was posted to YouTube yesterday.

    Video: Kamala Harris Delivers Eulogy for Jimmy Carter - Click

    Note how Speaker Johnson blithely speaks of the Naval Academy and Admiral Rickover and yet says the young Carter was an Army officer serving on a submarine. ARG!

    1. The prayer he used which he attributed to Jefferson was long ago debunked by the Jefferson Society as having ever been penned by Jefferson.

      So that shows the level of care and truth Mike Johnson puts into something important.
