Yes an update.  Thanks. 

My knowledge of the issue predates your update.  Initially it was no way, José.

Was also part of the contempt of court issues he is facing.

Personally, I want him found in contempt and locked up as threatened.  Stop the bs and do it or shut up and move on.

But I really want him locked up.  The line needs to be crossed.  We need to see how far this will be taken for perspective and future reference purposes.

Hardly.  If he was he could go to his son's high school graduation without being thrown in jail for doing it.

Associated Press, April 15: Trump’s lawyers have requested that the trial not be held on May 17 so that the former president may attend his son Barron’s high school graduation. A Trump lawyer has also requested the trial not be held June 3 so that he could attend his own son’s graduation.
Merchan said he was not prepared to rule on either request, but that if the trial proceeds as planned he’s willing to adjourn for one or both days. “It really depends on how we’re doing on time and where we are in the trial,” Merchan said.

When is the graduation Kurt?

Hint: there's plenty of time... 

That doesn't stop Trump from saying stupid shit that you're happy to repeat.  Poor Donnie... always punished... such a victim... if only the world was a just place.

How important is jury selection for your trial?  I guess you can get used to anything.

Trump simultaneously complains about a two-tiered system of justice, while enjoying benefits no-one else in the country would.

Anybody who can release the name of a judge, prosecutor, or family member of someone and then have dozens...hundreds...thousands of people harassing that person should be forced to follow judicial guidelines.  Not for Kurt.  He complains about the process while ignoring the reasons that things like gag orders are in place.

just another Russian asset if you ask me, taking everyone for a ride, out to sow discord, division and distrust to ultimately weaken the U.S. so that Russia can expand into the void. 
He's been surprisingly successful.  Best investment Putin ever made.

Sorry mate (guy in the article, not you Steely), but nothing you've done or will ever do is going to replace this as your most memorable contribution to the planet.  Granted, if it wasn't him, it would have been someone else.  It's a bit like blaming the staff a Mar-a-lago for moving files.

I just finished it playing in the background (kinda boring).  What struck me is that they paid all of this money to hide things that 8 years later half of the country doesn't care about.  OK, maybe not half, but a lot.  We're all so used to it...but if you take a step back... 

The guy on the Access Hollywood tape, who was cheating on his 3rd wife with a pornstar, after ending a 9-month relationship with a former playmate of the year, becomes the conservative overlord for a party that preaches family values, religion, and personal responsibility.  After attempting to circumvent the Constitution and interrupt the peaceful transition of power, for the results of an election he refuses to acknowledge, he's back as the nominee for the party.  In the meantime, he's been found guilty of lying about the value of his businesses, owes NY state half a billion dollars, is on trial now and awaiting trial on 3 other indictments, sells shoes and bibles, and is in the process of running a financial scam under the full lights of Wall Street and the SEC. 

Nobody would believe this if it were a movie script.

Since I'm slated for jury duty in the next few months, I wonder if dozing off during meetings is valid grounds for getting myself dismissed.

They said the temporary assignment I had to work with the Department of Justice for covid response during lock-down wasn't enough to get me out of it.
