    “Your client is to be here Friday at 9 a.m. and at that point there will be a warrant that will be completed,” he told Hajji. “We’ll arraign your client on that warrant and we will proceed with a hearing.”

    Sounds like the judge is done screwing around. One can only hope.

    Kwame just never gets it. He doesn't get that, in this economy, with 25% of people in Detroit out of work, that they just don't like his smart-aleck remarks, like he only has $6 to pay the city, when he's living in a mansion most of them could never think of living in and his wife has plastic surgery, etc. People can barely buy food here so his crying poor act doesn't work. But he'll never get it. He thinks he's the chosen one and that is never going to change until the Feds drop the RICO hammer and he heads to prison for a good long time.

    Kwame says he needs that lavish lifestyle so he can close deals and establish a rapport with his clients.

    And the prosecutor's response: "It's a rant against the judge and the court."

    No, Clinton didn't,

    a) throw a coke-and-strippers party at the White House which ended up with one of the strippers dead;

    b) strip $9 million of cash out of the federal budget into his own pocket.

    Yeah, whose goddamn fault is that?

    Judge issues a warrant for Kwame's arrest. He's scheduled to be in court at 9 a.m. Friday.
