Donald Trump swore in court yesterday he would not attempt to influence or intimidate witnesses, retaliate against anyone, or in any other way attempt to obstruct the administration of justice.
βAre you prepared to comply?β the magistrate judge asked.
βYes,β Trump replied.
First they ignore you
Then they laugh at you
Then they say plants have feelings
Then they compare themselves to cavemen
Then they compare themselves to lions
Then they become nutritionists
Then they say they only pay for animals to be stabbed in a nice way
Then they call you racist
Then they call you elitist
Then they call you ableist
Then they say God gave them the right to kill animals
Then they agree to watch Dominion on YouTube and do more research
Then just maybe, if theyβre not heartless, they go vegan
The Burmese peacock softshell turtle is a critically endangered freshwater turtle thatβs thought to only be found in Myanmar. These hatchlings were recently discovered and filmed, in what is reportedly the first video record of them in the wild.
Chris Christie on Donald Trump:
"It appears to me last night, as a former prosecutor, that he admitted obstruction of justice on the air last night to Brett Baier...His lawyers this morning are jumping out of whatever window they're near."
THREAD: 1 of 6. Trumpβs comparison of his case with Bill Clintonβs sock drawer is not only incorrect, it is nonsensical. Hereβs why.
The Presidential Records Act says presidential records belong to the government, not the individual who served as president. β¦
Facts:
1. The investigation into Trump began BEFORE he declared his candidacy. It is not about him running for office.
2. It isn't a Democratic "witch hunt". Wray was appointed as head of the FBI by Donald Trump.
3. If declaring a run for the presidency were to negate a criminal investigation, then everyone could avoid prosecution for a crime by simply declaring as a candidate for President.
4. Former leaders do not get a "Get out of Jail" card for crimes because they once led the government. Holding him accountable doesn't represent a "Two-tiered" justice system.

Folks, take Trump's name off of the indictment and place anyone else's name on it. Look at the facts objectively and then decide if that person should be prosecuted.
This is the action of a mature democracy, not a banana republic. NOT prosecuting him would be political. Prosecuting him is indicative of a justice system that works.
If the facts show he should go free, then he will. If they do not, then he won't.
He is innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
Let the system work.
And this goes for EVERY office holder in any political party.
Remember Tara Reade that pro-Putin grifter who falsely accused Biden of sexual assault, a story people like Ryan Grim ran with, whose links to Russia were dismissed as an outrageous smear against an alleged survivor of assault? Well sheβs just announced she has defected to Russia
No matter what Trump says, Biden is the US President and Trump lost. Perhaps it's because when you put them both on a debate stage, it's clear that Biden is a leader and Trump is an embarrassment.
