... The complaint, which was filed by George Washington University Law Professor John F. Banzhaf, alleges Trump may have violated three Georgia state laws, including conspiracy to commit election fraud, criminal solicitation to commit election fraud, and intentional interference with performance of election duties....
Lock him up!
So, where are the indictments from NY that I've heard so much about over the past 4 years?
They've had the time.
Trump: “We had the safest border in the history of our country - or at least recorded history. I guess maybe a thousand years ago it was even better.”
The whole time Castor was talking I was going "what the fuck is he talking about?" And when his buddy Schoen came next and incessantly weaved from side to side while he spoke, it made me dizzy.
... 15 years of Boardwalk bombast, braggadocio, and business reversals.
“This is the fitting end of Trump’s era,” Atlantic City Mayor Marty Small Sr. said of the planned Wednesday implosion of Trump Plaza’s long-vacant hotel tower, which has even inspired nearby Caesar's to promote a "stay and view" Schadenfreude special offering guests a "front seat to Atlantic City history."
... Small also asserted Trump “made a mockery” of a struggling community “when he said, ‘I made a lot of money in Atlantic City and I got out.’”
Indeed, during his tumultuous time here, Trump drew attention for his celebrity status and glittering properties — and for his casino firm’s massive losses and multiple bankruptcies....
Detailed account, interesting to me. A good metaphor for his presidency* and life.

"more than 40 percent since Barack Obama’s last year in office. In total, the number of official complaints steadily rose from 197 in fiscal year 2016 to 253 in 2017; 263 in 2018 and 281 in 2019, the most recent data available. And watchdog groups say complaints involve more higher-profile staffers than ever before. At least a dozen Trump senior officials have violated the Hatch Act."

At the very least Carla Sands should be prosecuted for wearing fur.
Who does that anymore?

Hope that trend continues.

Former President Donald Trump intensified his war with the Republican establishment on Thursday by attacking Karl Rove, a longtime Republican strategist who criticized Trump's first speech since leaving office for being long on grievances but short on vision.
"He’s a pompous fool with bad advice and always has an agenda," Trump complained in a statement issued by his office in Palm Beach, Florida.
Rove, the architect of Republican George W. Bush's presidential victories in 2000 and 2004, wrote in an opinion article in the Wall Street Journal on Thursday that Trump's speech last Sunday to the Conservative Political Action Conference was wanting.
Rove noted that in a straw poll of CPAC participants, only 68% wanted Trump to run for president again in 2024, while 32% did not want him to run or had no opinion.
I can't explain the difference from the 55% for I cited above. Either way, tepid.
Trump's CPAC speech was noteworthy for rehashing his unfounded claims of election fraud in his November loss to Democrat Joe Biden, despite advice from his team not to do so.
Rove wrote of the 90-minute speech: "There was no forward-looking agenda, simply a recitation of his greatest hits. People like fresh material. Repetition is useful to a point, but it grows stale."
... Trump called Rove -- a familiar figure on the Fox News Channel who writes his points on an erasable whiteboard -- a "RINO," or Republican In Name Only, and said Rove had lobbied him in support of 5G telecommunications.
"Karl Rove has been losing for years, except for himself. He’s a RINO of the highest order, who came to the Oval Office lobbying for 5G for him and a group," Trump said.
Trump said Rove had called him on the night of the Nov. 3 election to congratulate him on a "great victory," which was before Biden was declared the winner.
Rove, in a statement to Reuters, dismissed Trump's criticism.
"I’ve been called a lot of things in my career, but never a RINO. I’ve voted for every Republican presidential candidate since I turned 18 and have labored only for GOP (Republican) candidates since then," said the 70-year-old Rove. "I have a different recollection of Mr. Trump’s views on 5G and our conversation election night. I’ll continue to use my whiteboard and voice to call balls and strikes."
Go for it, boys.

It's been a stupid and hypocritical whine all along. 45SHOLE and his Trumpettes have sought to cancel any Repub that showed an iota of independence, Jeff Flake for example.

Well, it's official. Rove has lost it. Who did he think he was writing about, and what did he expect? "Forward looking agenda"?? As Trump has presented never.
