Your retelling of these events is fucking hilarious, Liz! Your narrative makes it impossible not to imagine these minions as Moe, Curly, and Larry, hired as security by an egocentric crime boss.

Well done. And sobering. What a gang of idiots.

What is scary is that Trump is the likely Republican nomination. Given that the party will go all out to "win." They are not to be trusted.

24 minutes on a phone call with Trump. I’d rather be flayed and boiled in oil.

A decade in jail.. how sweet for one who went around cheering to have Hillary locked up and revving up his minions about bad corrupt, crooked people, retribution, the American carnage that he wished for and promoted.

This clown show is hardly amusing except for the lesson it teaches us about our own vulnerability to such as Trump (there's a line of them) and that we do really want to laugh at it all and make it & them go away. Thankful for Jack Smith firstly and the explainers, like this here, Liz.

Something confuses me. I understand, though do not agree, that Citizen's United says that political donations are a form of "free speech." But aren't there rules about how you can spend those? Does running for office let a candidate pay the attorney fees not only of himself but of witnesses he wants to keep "loyal" for things that have nothing to do with his current campaign?

I’m guessing the meeting in the bushes was caught on a neighbor’s security camera. The exact times in the legal documents are the giveaway: right off of a camera recording.

I have to know if Jack Smith kept a straight face while working this investigation.

There is no justice if we don’t get to see Trump in handcuffs soon.

Unreal—something like t kids hiding in bushes before sneaking into a home full of camera getting everything on take. Sad, treated so unfairly
