Lara Trump, who sits on the U.S. Republican National Committee (RNC), says that she can have people "handle the ballots" during the 2024 election. Um, no. That's illegal. It's no coincidence that the RNC's Election Integrity Chairperson was just indicted on felony criminal charges for election tampering. This is exactly what happens when a dictator like Little Peutiie in Russia exclusively surrounds himself with yesmen and yeswomen.

Don The Con's lawyer, Boris Epshtyen, was indicted in the U.S. State of Arizona after publicly admitting to election tampering on Ari Melber's show. Why any criminal would go on that show and say such stupid things is way beyond me. Ari Melber is a well-practiced trial attorney, and all of his interviews are like cross-examinations. Presumably, Epshtyen was aware of this. Once again, Epshtyen is just another participant in the self-reinforcing, isolationist, and dissociative ReTrumplican bubble.

Don The Schlong?🤣 He's more like Don The Button Mushroom if you believe what his former porn mistress said.

Regarding the severe delay, all I can say is that money = power in the U.S. (including the court "systems"). For the average worker, consumer, or tenant, the courts are basically a sick fascist joke. For a corporatist fatcat, it's an entirely different story. Trump figured out a long time ago that he can use the massive expense of litigating not only to force banks to lend him money, but to defend his criminal conduct tooth and nail. Basically his strategy is to overwhelm and frustrate his legal opponents with objections, motions, and interlocutory appeals (appeals filed to an appellate court during the trial court proceeding). If this plan works, he wins and is enriched. if it fails, he's liable for having filed a frivolous claim (without merit) but all he has to pay is his opponent's legal fees. Whoop-dee_doo.🙄

The average American could, in theory, play Trump's game--but in reality, we can't afford to do so. Our own legal fees (and potential penalties) would bankrupt us. Furthermore should you choose to represent yourself pro se (basically, without a lawyer), just think what you're doing--you're refusing to financially subscribe to the lawyers' club's business model (the Barristers Association). All of the lawyers and judges are dues paying members of the club. How do you think club members are going to respond to your refusal to follow their club's business model while appearing in their club's system? And God help you if you're a non-white American involved in the courts in any way. This is part of the reason that I refuse to practice law.

The U.K.'s BBC reports that Judge Merchan found Don The Con guilty of 9 counts of criminal contempt, but only penalized Trump 9000 USD... along with a warning of jail time for future violations. Again, the next contempt hearing is set for Thursday, May 2, 2024.
