President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

Looking forward to "Jesus" Trump doing the whole layin' of the hands and healing that guy thing....

 

He might want to stay away, another toot could set the guy on fire again.

 

Nothing is harder to deprogram than a person taking dozens of actual phenomenons and ascribing one sinister plot to them. He just took each puzzle piece and jammed them until they fit.

 

"You think your Manhattan juror is a red hat? No! She's a poli sci major with a lot of student loans. She wants to go home and sit in her co-op and let the MSNBC wash over her."

 

I get a lot of emails from campaigns in my work inbox. Ron Johnson's are among the best and normally involve a lot of strong verbs like "demands," "destroys," etc.

This new one kind of tells on itself:

"Sen. Johnson exposes failures of Democratic governance"

 

And now ... we know ... the rest of the story ...

 

Good. As soon as Speaker Jeffries takes the gavel, get together with Schumer and Biden and codify Roe.

 

I hope that's true. MTG and Gaetz can't be kicked to the curb soon enough.

 

As usual, someone else's fault.

Stable. Genius.

 

Trump is fucked, and not in the nice way.

The New York Attorney General’s office on Friday asked a judge to effectively void a $175 million bond posted by former President Donald Trump to secure a much larger monetary damage award in his civil business fraud case as he appeals the judgment.

The AG’s office in a filing said Trump and other defendants in the case had failed to show there is enough identifiable collateral to back the bond for the judgment in Manhattan Supreme Court.

The filing notes that the surety Trump used to obtain the bond, Knight Specialty Insurance Company, is “a small insurer that is not authorized to write business in New York and thus not regulated by the state’s insurance department, had never before written a surety bond in New York or in the prior two years in any other jurisdiction, and has a total policyholder surplus of just $138 million.”

The filing opposes a joint motion by Trump and KSIC to justify the insurer as the surety company holding the bond.

Lawyers for AG Letitia James asked Judge Arthur Engoron to require Trump and other defendants to put up a replacement bond within seven days of ruling on the issue. James’ lawsuit against Trump led to the massive civil judgment against him.

A hearing on the bond dispute is set for Monday.​
