Miles Archer's JournalI am delighted that DU's Terms of Service no longer apply to Tulsi Gabbard.
I was on my best behavior. Really I was. And the irony is that I have nothing to say about her right now, but if I did, I wouldn't have to keep her status as a Democrat in mind while I said it.
Her social media blitz yesterday was beyond sad. A FLOOD of "I want to tell you why I made this decision" met with a flood of "I don't care why, I'm just glad to see you gone" responses as she rushed into the welcoming arms of Tucker Carlson and Joe Rogan.
Self awareness really is a tough nut to crack for some folks.
I'm thoroughly fed up with the media's "sympathetic" portrayal of Trump and his legal woes.
"He's not happy."
SO...EFFING...WHAT.
"He could lose his businesses"
SO...EFFING...WHAT.
"He would not be able to go to trial with the New York AG because he could not control his ego and impulses"
SO...EFFING...WHAT.
He has EARNED this. It's a lifetime of lies and deception and fraud come home to roost. And while I DO NOT ANTICIPATE A SINGLE DAY OF PRISON TIME, I DO believe he could take a broadside in his wallet, and HE'S EARNED THAT TOO.
I guess telling us how Trump is feeling represents "news" to the news media. Sadly, I REALLY DON'T CARE IF HE'S HAPPY OR SAD.
Trump 2024 announcement "on pause" due to "legal problems" & "legal bills." NO! OMFG, NO!
After a week in which the former president saw his bid to slow down a DOJ investigation into the theft of government documents with the appointment of a special master blow up in his face, and New York Attorney General Letitia James announce a plan to seek $250 million from the Trump family for real estates fraud, the Post is reporting that the former president is facing multiple obstacles to getting his incipient campaign off the ground.
"These and other setbacks for Trump come as at least a half-dozen additional legal efforts proceed against him and his allies — committing him to months of legal wrangling as he seeks to raise his political profile for a possible 2024 bid while also increasing the prospect of becoming the first former U.S. president to face indictment after leaving office," writes the paper.
One obstacle beyond Trump's control are plans by a group of Democratic lawyers to keep him off the ballot if he does announce due to his connection to the Jan 6 insurrection.

Melania HEARTS Christmas now that she is pimping her f*#!ing line of $45 CHRISTMAS ORNAMENTS.
WE WISH YOU A MERRY GRIFT-MAS.

Melania Trump wants to “set the record straight” on her attitude toward Christmas, two years after she was heard in an explosive audio leak asking her former senior adviser “who gives a fuck about the Christmas stuff and decorations?” “While I was serving as first lady of our country, Stephanie Wolkoff secretly recorded several of our conversations. Wolkoff then spitefully edited and released our conversation to create the perception that Christmas is not significant to me,” Trump tweeted Wednesday, insisting that the portion of the conversation edited out focused on her desire to reunite migrant children split from their families at the U.S.-Mexico border, months after her husband instated the “Zero Tolerance” policy, which separated thousands of families. “Christmas is an important time for me, my family, and the American people, and my devotion to the holiday is personal and profoundly serious,” Trump wrote in her statement. Her comments come as she’s selling $35 to $45 Christmas ornaments on her website, with some of the proceeds going toward a scholarship program for children in foster care.
WOW...NOT ONLY Don but Captain Cokespoon, Mr. Gums, and The Princess as well.
The cloud inside the silver lining is that if AG James WINS, Trump will do what he normally does...appeal after appeal after appeal, and he will do his best to kick it to the Supreme Court.
BUT IN THE MEANTIME, I expect non-stop bitching and whining on "Truth Social."
It's worth it for the stress level Trump will endure, as well as public scrutiny of his crooked business practices.
I believe it was Curly Bill Brocious who, in the movie "Tombstone," said "Well...BYE."
Ken Starr, Key Figure in Impeachment of Bill Clinton, Dies at 76Pay CLOSE ATTENTION to Beto. THIS is how it needs to be DONE.
Context, in case you missed it.

I do not have a single ounce, a single drop, of "When they go LOW, we go HIGH" left in me.
I am to the point where the only way we can communicate with Trump fans / Republicans is in a language they understand.
About 30 seconds after Trump was elected, his fans were dancing around like drunken satyrs, chanting "FUCK YOUR FEELINGS."
That's where I'm at. I'm sick of handling these fucks with kid gloves.
I'M WITH BETO.
"Better Late Than Never"
We were watching a movie until a few minutes ago, and I just turned on Lawrence O'Donnell and heard about the WaPo breaking news.
WELL DESERVED, Trump. A FEDERAL CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION of a former one-term, twice-impeached president.
This is NOT a case of "There is no "there" there..."
The DOJ has a TRUCKLOAD of evidence to work with. There's an abundance of "there."
This just got really, really interesting.
"Tickets for the event (canceled Trump rally) were being sold for up to $3,955." THOUGHTS & PRAYERS!
"Former President Trump and his adult children, Ivanka Trump and Donald Trump Jr., are scheduled to testify under oath on July 15 as part of a probe by the New York attorney general into his finances, a court filing revealed Wednesday," Axios reported.
Trump was scheduled to be in Greensboro the same day.
"The American Freedom Tour had announced in May appearances in Greensboro by Trump, Trump Jr., television news personality Kimberly Guilfoyle, former New York state judge Jeanine Pirro, Pinal County (Arizona) Sheriff Mark Lamb and political commentator Dinesh D’Souza," the Raleigh News & Observer reported Monday.
Tickets for the event were being sold for up to $3,955.

THOUGHTS & PRAYERS! Repubs worry Trump announcing 2024 run "could hurt them in the midterms!"
Oh dear GOD, no. If they don't take back the House and Senate, they can't take Social Security and Medicare away from us! THEN what will we DO?

Trump could be planning to make an unusually early announcement of his plans to run for president, but not all Republicans are convinced it would be the right move for the party.
Trump has long teased a 2024 White House run and has continued to hold campaign-style rallies, all while stopping short of saying definitively if he plans to enter the race. However, recent revelations from the House Select committee's hearings on the January 6 insurrection are impacting his plans, according to a report from The New York Times.
Now, Trump is considering announcing a run far earlier than expected, possibly even this month, in part as an attempt to distract from the hearings, the outlet reported.
The January 6 hearing this week featured allegations that were especially damaging to Trump, including explosive testimony from Cassidy Hutchinson, who at the time of the Capitol attack was the top aide to White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows.
