Unless Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas resign or are impeached, SCOTUS will never regain credibility with the public. It’s too much.

I had read that the probation review includes taking a blood sample to check for drugs. Is that only for drug offenders?

Via Eric Columbus:

This is ugly stuff. Judge Juan Merchan comes from Colombia. He moved to the U.S. as a kid.

Remarkably, Judge Aileen Cannon was also born in Colombia — but I doubt Trump knows that.

#Trump: The judge hates Donald Trump. Take a look at him. Take a look at where he comes from

I just wish there was one intrepid reporter who would ask him if he's getting comfortable with being behind bars. Just one.
I also think the court staff should be raising those, just maybe an inch each appearance?

Tell me: how does it make sense that an entry-level federal employee is subject to more stringent ethics rules than Supreme Court justices?

The unethical GOP broke it with their unethical presidents nominating unethical judges who were then confirmed by an unethical GOP senate.

The CFPB set a rule limiting credit card late fees to save American families ~$10 billion/yr.

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce sued to stop it.

Republicans in Congress are trying to kill it.

The government is tackling junk fees, and corporate interests couldn't be more upset.

...At 2:14 p.m., Trump walks in, entourage in tow.

Boris Epshteyn just handed a piece of paper with a photo on it to Kaitlan Collins.

I thought he maybe said "Conway" to her, but I'm not exactly sure.

Some filler here for the youngs -- in the 70's Donald wanted be be in the mafia soooooo baaaaaad. He ran around NYC acting all tough, but the bosses wouldn't let him in. They used him, but wouldn't let him in, because...he wasn't trustworthy enough! They knew he'd turn on them in a heartbeat.

Donald can refute her sworn testimony - in court, under oath, like she did.

@GottaLaff NFL Uh-oh. Are you sure you want Stormy to have to prove that? (mushroom emoji followed by camera emoji}

Trump enters the courtroom. Before arriving, he lingered for a moment in the doorway, talking to his lawyers, Emile Bove and Todd Blanche. He had a piece of paper in his hand, which he waved around as he spoke.

Wait for it….

@GottaLaff NFL It's easy to stick to your story when you're telling the truth, because it never changes. Go Stormy!!!!

Picking up after my "mistrial" thread/ 1/...

All via McB for awhile:

Counsel approaches, brief sidebar

"Binoculars down."

As I mentioned, courtroom rules strictly enforced. During sidebar, court security doesn't allow reporters to use binoculars they had brought to see exhibits and facial expressions better

SueDiOh ,

@GottaLaff NFL
I think this jury will be totally sympathetic to Stormy protecting the identities of her family.

SueDiOh ,

@GottaLaff Terrific play-by-play coverage, Laffy. I've just got this lingering image in my head: "you remind me of my daughter." And then he takes his clothes off and jumps into bed. And I'm going to try to wash that away with wine, but I don't think there's enough in the world.

SueDiOh ,

@GottaLaff He's a serial sicko. Remember, E Jean Carroll's rape was in 1999. It's about time it all comes out. Bravo to these brave women! Salut.🍷

SueDiOh ,

@GottaLaff Oh, I know. He's been a clown since the 70's. I remember when he and Ivanka went to Studio 54 every weekend , and the stories that would come out of that place. All in the papers, but somehow never mentioned in 2016. He never learned to dance, though.

Necheles rises to renew Trump's objection to Daniels testifying about any "sexual details," which she says has no relevance and is prejudicial.
By details, Merchan asks, more than just "we had sex"? Yes, Necheles says.

@GottaLaff NFL Its a shame Stormy won't be able to give details about her encounter with trump. I hear he's a real fungi.

Bower:

Justice Merchan starts off will the prosecution motion for contempt.

He tells Trump he's about to issue his ruling, in which he will again find Trump in contempt of court.

The last thing I want to do is put you in jail, Justice Merchan says to Trump. You are the former President of the United States and possibly the next President as well.

But "going forward," he continues, "this court will have to consider jail sanctions" if necessary.

Benjamin Netanyahu says he will defy the entire democratic world's calls for a pause and attack Rafah, and his security minister calls for "total annihilation" of Gaza.

Is it really that surprising, The International Criminal Court is about to issue arrest warrants for these men?

Netanyahu, Jared and the Saudis want that waterfront property.
