#TrumpTrial Thurs 30 May 2024 🧵#Deliberations continue

Justice #Merchan says he believes that the #jury wants him to repeat a significant portion of the #JuryInstructions.

He will read pages 6-35.

Each page yesterday took him just a little more than a minute, so this will take >30 mins.

Between that & the testimony readbacks, also expected to take >30 mins, there will likely be >1 hour this morning w/the jury in the courtroom, not actively deliberating.

Good morning! It’s the last day of the #TrumpTrial before jury #deliberations.
Today Justice #Merchan will give #JuryInstructions. Then they will discuss the case among themselves for the first time; they have not been allowed to even discuss it w/each other as yet.

Closing arguments took place yesterday, & the lawyers will have no further opportunity to address the jurors before they determine whether #Trump is #guilty or not guilty of 34 felonies.

The wife of embattled Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito allegedly spat at the car of a neighbor with whom she had become embroiled in a weeks-long argument.

A young couple living near the Alitos' residence in Fairfax County, Virginia, ultimately rang the police, claiming that they were being harassed by Martha-Ann Alito, according to a new report from The New York Times.

It comes after several reports from the newspaper, which detailed how flags used by supporters of Donald Trump's "Stop The Steal" campaign had appeared at two properties owned by the right-wing justice and his wife.

Manafort’s move came after NYT reported that he had been on the ground in Milwaukee last week for planning meetings for the convention, as well as a Washington Post story that said he was involved in work connected to foreign officials and businesses.”

@GottaLaff
I think there is a solution but I never looked at doing it international.

I went traveling for a year through the US but my prescriptions had to be done in California. So I subscribed to postscan which did mail collection, forwarding and scanning. It was like ten or fifteen dollars a month. I could have them scan things that looked important or forward things like prescriptions.

There are several different companies doing the same thing and they use places like office max to the small little local mailbox places. You can set it up on your current town or the nearest one to you across the border.

That's a good question. My opinion might be fringe. This is just my opinion. I have read many detailed and well argued pieces on this topic but I am also a bit older and no longer have the memory I used to have.

I believe at this moment that over time Giuliani, TFg and their cohorts sold out the Italian Mafia and got in good with the Russian Mafia. This Russian Mafia is deadly. Constantly there are people falling out windows who have had some history of business with the higher echelon of the those suspected of criminal activity.

Dymitri Firtash and Michael Cohen shared the same attorney, Lanny Davis. And like Weisselberg, Cohen also went to jail. But I think Cohen has changed positions and is somehow protected and no longer under the thumb of TFg.

Lanny Davis is a really interesting guy if one Google's him.

own administration. The exception is former President Trump. It is not our role to assess the criminal charges pending against Mr. Trump, but several material distinctions between Mr. Trump's case and Mr. Biden's are clear. Unlike the evidence involving Mr. Biden, the allegations set forth in the indictment of Mr. Trump, if proven, would present serious aggravating facts.

Most notably, after being given multiple chances to return classified documents and avoid prosecution, Mr. Trump allegedly did the opposite. According to the indictment, he not only refused to return the documents for many months, but he also obstructed justice by enlisting others to destroy evidence and then to lie about it. In contrast, Mr. Biden turned in classified documents to the National Archives and the Department of Justice, consented to the search of multiple locations including his homes, sat for a voluntary interview, and in other ways cooperated with the investigation.

Have you ever had an uncanny or possibly paranormal experience?

I have.

It happened when I was in undergrad, I had a work-study in the Archivists Office in the rare books section of the library. The library is a classic modern building from the 50s, once ahead of its time, now well behind. The computer system was similar, my college being one of the first to adopt a digital library catalog in the late 60s

I have an experience that I still can't believe.

My mom was a smoker and got lung cancer with 1 year to live. She did not stop smoking. She smoked 4 packs a day. All the items in her home and the actual home had been covered in residue from the smoke. She lived in the house for 30 years. She had a 5000 sq ft single story house. She was a hoarder but not like the people on TV. She didn't have trash but some rooms were very full. She had items from deceased relatives in addition to her stuff.

I was over there and cleaned the whole house. I thought wouldn't it be nice if it burned down? I had no idea what to do with the items. Then I decided, nah, it was too big and would only have partial damage and be more complicated to clean out.
I moved all the dishes and containers from her room and washed them. I for some reason left a pitcher on the counter.

I went home and got a call at 3am that my mom's house burned down. To the ground.
