The Trump campaign just announced that, since 6PM last night, it has raised $34.9 million dollars in new contributions. If this is true, it is another indication of just how badly this sham-trial verdict is going to backfire on Joe Biden and the Democrat Party. Let’s see how the next few days fall out in donations and political polling……

Today’s quote comes to us from Scott Jennings of CNN – a (no-doubt lonely) Republican on that network. Here is what he has to say about yesterday’s verdict in the Trump sham trial: “Well, if my phone and the text messages I’m receiving are any indication, every Republican in the country is madder than a wet hen. “I mean, people who are decidedly non-MAGA...
Sometimes I think it’s a sin, when I feel like I’m winnin’ when I’m losin’ again The above lyrics are from Gordon Lightfoot’s classic song, “Sundown”. And, in my opinion, they describe the elation of Trump haters at the verdict of guilty on all counts in New York City’s sham trial – run by a judge who donated to Joe Biden and who...
…no verdict yet. I’m no expert on this, but it seems to me that the longer the deliberation the less likely it is that there is any consensus on guilt…thus the more likely it is that there will be a mistrial. We’ll see…
With my standard caveat that political polls can be inaccurate and, even if accurate, can change quickly… …this latest poll by the nonpartisan Pew Research Center shows just how much of a problem the Black vote is for Joe Biden (and, depending on which state/congressional district we’re talking about, plenty of other Democrat candidates as well): If what you just read is true;...
Yesterday I blogged this: Did juan merchan, the Biden contributor acting as judge for his opponent’s trial, instruct the jury that they can create a guilty verdict without unanimously finding him guilty of any specific crime? According to Jonathan Turley, that is exactly what the instruction was: “Merchan just delivered the coup de grace instruction,” Turley explained. “He said that there...
On Wednesday, Robert De Niro, an aging actor whose main political credential appears to be his deranged-quality hatred of Donald Trump, stood outside the New York City courtroom where Trump was being tried and ranted out a looney-tunes compendium of insults, half-truths, non-truths and general paranoia about him. Not one of the media reactions I read or heard – regardless of political leaning...

You don’t read much about the vaunted “Gaza pier” our tax dollars (about $320,000,000 of them) funded – the one that was supposed to provide desperately-needed food and other supplies to the Gazan population in Rafah and beyond, do you? That’s pretty strange, given how much news there has been about it. Here, from yesterday’s tweet from John Hasson, is a brief synopsis: The...
There was more. A lot more. But I want to show you just a couple of the key passages from Robert De Niro’s lunatic asylum-quality rant about Donald Trump at the courthouse yesterday. Here’s one: It’s a good time to reflect on how Americans fought and died so that we may enjoy the freedoms guaranteed to us by a democratic government, a government that as President Lincoln said...

Today’s quote – and it is mind-blowing – comes to us from our Secretary of Homeland Security, alejandro mayorkas. Here, during last week’s interview with CBS News Immigration and Politics Reporter Camilo Montoya-Galvez that was aired yesterday, is mayorkas’ self-evaluation regarding the southern border: “We have done an extraordinary job to deal with an...
Question: has this been set up to generate a hung jury…and a re-trial before the election, which would tie Trump up in New York City for another month or so during the campaign period? I don’t know the answer to that question. But, given the idiocy of the trial itself, it wouldn’t surprise me a bit.
I just endured Robert De Niro making a Biden campaign speech for Joe Biden. This was so unhinged, so nuts, that there is too much to try and remember; I’ll wait for the transcript. Among the things De Niro said – as insultingly as possible with an overload of personal insults and occasional profanity – was that he grew up in New York City and Trump has no business here (FYI –...
On Sunday, hamas, from Rafah, its last stronghold, fired missiles into central Israel; specifically the city of Tel Aviv. Israel retaliated with bombing that was, according to Israel, intended to take out senior military personnel who – as is typical of them – were hiding among civilian populations. Israel hit a regufee camp. Reports – credible ones (not at all a guarantee...
