Trump's lawyer says it is "unconstitutional" for people to argue about politics at Thanksgiving:



In a weird rant, Trump’s lawyer says it is “unconstitutional” for people to argue about politics at Thanksgiving, that the country never used to be divided, and the best way to bring the country together again is to drop all these legal cases and investigations against Trump.


The Kari Lake filter craze is making GOP women look like Pixar characters.

Seriously, lady? Disagreeing about politics is unconstitutional? Would you like to bet your bar number on that?

Confrused?

Wow, tfg's defenders will twist like pretzels to defend him. Why? I still don't get their willingness to fall on the sword for him when he doesn't give a crap about them.

This is also the same lawyer who did the RICO lawsuit against Hillary Clinton where she got sanctioned and recommended for disciplinary action.

Donald Trump and his lawyers have suffered quite a few defeats of late, and as CNBC reported yesterday, their latest setback will hit their wallets.

A federal judge Thursday sanctioned attorneys for former President Donald Trump to pay $50,000 as penalty for advancing a “frivolous” lawsuit against a raft of Trump’s political enemies, including Hillary Clinton and the Democratic National Committee. Judge Donald Middlebrooks’ scathing order in Florida federal court suggested Trump’s lawyers had undermined the rule of law by pushing a political narrative in court “without factual basis or any cognizable legal theory.”


......The judge in the case didn’t just reject the underlying claims, Middlebrooks could barely contain his disgust with the inanity of the legal complaint.

American courtrooms are not supposed to be abused by politicians filing frivolous cases for no reasons. Those who do open themselves up to possible sanctions — and in this case, the district court judge seemed open to that possibility in September......

The penalties were imposed on several Trump lawyers, including Alina Habba. What’s more, the sanctions may not end there: “Additional sanctions may be appropriate,” the judge added in yesterday’s ruling.

This lady is a really bad attorney and needs to go back to representing parking garages
