I thought we already knew that he was selling pardons.

“It was kissing and petting and not intercourse, but it was wrong,” Morris said of the relationship to the Christian Post.

Is it really an allegation still when you are quoting him in the article admitting to it?

Trump was considering South Dakota Gov. Noem for his running mate, but he ruled out that possibility after she drew so much criticism for an anecdote in her book in which she describes shooting a dog she owned.

Puppy. Not dog, puppy. It was only 14 months old when she decided to take a shotgun to it.

To paraphrase Clarence Darrow, I would never wish a man dead, but there are some obituaries that I very much look forward to reading.

Others were in there, but he apparently ignored them…

According to the Herald, the order said that Prasad “continued to insert the scope despite being told to wait and began to thrust the scope into (the patient’s) rectum while (the patient) shouted in pain.”

…or misunderstood them?

The outlet also reported that a hospital administrator had been present in the room and told Prasad he needed to wait, to which the gastroenterologist "leaned over (the patient) and shouted “I know!” to the administrator, yet continued to manipulate the scope.”

Dude needs to lose his license.

How idiotic. Donations to the campaign were made to the Biden-Harris campaign, not just to Biden. Biden dropped out so now it’s the Harris campaign until she picks a running mate. I hope this gets kicked out as a frivolous complaint.

Although Biden’s heir apparent, Harris is not yet the Democratic presidential nominee. The Trump campaign said that until she is the nominee, contributions made to Biden should not be rolled over to the vice president.

Um, Biden wasn’t the nominee yet either.

In Florida convicted felons may not vote until their sentences have been served and they have paid all outstanding fines and restitution.

Okay, that is just not true. I don’t understand how Former Florida appeals court judge Philip Padovano doesn’t get that. Trump is clearly able to vote now under Florida law.

The law states that:

A felony conviction in Florida for murder or a sexual offense makes a person ineligible to vote in Florida unless and until the person’s right to vote is restored by the State Clemency Board.

For any other felony conviction in Florida, a person is eligible to register and vote if the person has completed all terms of his or her sentence. Completion of the sentence means: Prison or jail time; Parole, probation, or other forms of supervision; and Payment of the total amount of all fines, fees, costs, and restitution ordered as part of the felony sentence.

On the surface, that sounds like Trump shouldn’t be allowed to vote, but note that this first section refers to convictions in Florida. The law goes on to state that:

>A felony conviction in another state makes a person ineligible to vote in Florida only if the conviction would make the person ineligible to vote in the state where the person was convicted.

He was convicted in New York. Here is the pertinent law in New York:

A new law passed in 2021, restores the right to vote for a person convicted of a felony upon release from incarceration, regardless of if they are on parole or have a term of post-release supervision. If a convicted felon is not incarcerated, they are eligible to register to vote.

Since he is not incarcerated in NY, he is eligible to vote in NY and therefore eligible to vote in FL. Sad to say, but it’s true. Don’t waste your time on this one, there’s plenty of real stuff to go after him for.

“When I look at myself in the first grade and I look at myself now, I’m basically the same. The temperament is not that different.” - Donald Trump

Yep. Sure sounds like an insult a first grader would come up with.

Oh dear gods… Please do not pull this “I’m going to work with the other side” nonsense. The republican party is morally bankrupt and it is no longer possible to reach across the aisle without pulling back a hand that’s missing a ring, watch, or maybe some fingers. Just stop with this centrist bullshit!

Trump’s doctor, Ronnie Jackson, said the bullet “produced a 2 cm wide wound that extended down to the cartilaginous surface of the ear.” We are expected to believe that a 78 year old man completely healed a 2 cm (3/4 inch) wide ear wound, that went down to the cartilage, in less than two weeks.

These guys are lying through their teeth, again.
