A BAD DAY FOR DONALD:
Donald's lawsuit against the judge in his fraud case has been REJECTED by the Appeals Court.
Donald's lawyers accused Justice Arthur F. Engoron of ignoring an earlier decision that could have barred evidence from the case.
There are a few reasons this is a big deal. Donald will, of course, attempt to appeal the NY decision, so it's great to see his first attempt nuked from orbit.
Looks like it’s time to hide the ketchup at Mar-a-Lago which may very shortly be for sale at the very reasonable price of $18 to $27.6 million. 😎

Republicans present fake texts messages today as evidence to impeach a President that they pulled off some QAnon disinformation social media page. If this was court, everyone would be filing out because the case would be dismissed for prosecutorial misconduct.
Here is George Clooney response after Trump accused him of being a "Hollywood elite."
"Here’s the thing: I grew up in Kentucky. I sold insurance door-to-door. I sold ladies’ shoes. I worked at an all-night liquor store. I would buy suits that were too big and too long and cut the bottom of the pants off to make ties so I’d have a tie to go on job interviews. I grew up understanding what it was like to not have health insurance for eight years.
So this idea that I’m somehow the “Hollywood elite” and this guy who takes a shit in a gold toilet is somehow the man of the people is laughable.
People in Hollywood, for the most part, are people from the Midwest who moved to Hollywood to have a career. So this idea of “coastal elites” living in a bubble is ridiculous. Who lives in a bigger bubble?
He lives in a gold tower and has twelve people in his company. He doesn’t run a corporation of hundreds of thousands of people he employs and takes care of. He ran a company of twelve people!
When you direct a film you have seven different unions all wanting different things, you have to find consensus with all of them, and you have to get them moving in the same direction.
He’s never had to do any of that kind of stuff. I just look at it and I laugh when I see him say “Hollywood elite.” Hollywood elite? I don’t have a star on Hollywood Boulevard, Donald Trump has a star on Hollywood Boulevard! Fuck you!"

BREAKING: President Biden brings down the hammer on Donald Trump for insulting and smearing our brave troops, slams him for calling them "suckers" and "losers" previously — and then Biden got personal.
This is Dark Brandon all over again and we love it.
"The defeated former president refused to pay respects at an American cemetery near Paris," said Biden during a speech in Arizona. "Referring to the American servicemen buried there — and I've been to that cemetery — as 'suckers' and 'losers.'"
"I'm not making this up," Biden went on. "I know we all tried not to remember it but that's what he said. He called service members 'suckers' and ‘losers.'
"Was John [McCain] a sucker?" asked Biden. "Was my son Beau, who lived next to a burn pit for a year, came home and died, was he a sucker for volunteering to serve his country?”
"Same guy who denigrates the heroism of John McCain! It's not only wrong, it's unAmerican," said Biden.
"But it never changes. The MAGA extremists across the country have made it clear where they stand. So the challenge for the rest of America, for the majority of Americans, is to make it clear where we stand."
Make it clear where YOU stand. Vote Democratic.

Why have there been roughly 1,827 stories about President Biden’s dog, but ZERO stories about the phony “union members” at Trump’s Michigan rally?
Explain it to me like I’m five.
The entire media (on both sides, including your “friends” at MSNBC) is desperately trying to falsely sell today’s generic hearings as if they were part of an impeachment process when they’re not.
Numerous major news outlets are fictionally referring to these hearings as an “impeachment inquiry,” when these hearings are legally, procedurally, and pragmatically NOT an impeachment inquiry because no vote was even held. These news outlets are flat out engaging in fake news.
Other news outlets are trying to be more coy with their lying. One referred to today’s hearings as “impeachment happenings” (whatever that’s supposed to be). Another major news outlet referred to these hearings as “more of an overview on impeachment inquiry” (those words don’t even go together).
But the ENTIRE media, left right and center, is conspiring to help House Republicans falsely portray these generic non-voted-on hearings as if they were part of an impeachment process. The ENTIRE media is lying to you, in the hope of ginning up phony suspense around these hearings so you’ll get sucked into watching their coverage and boost their ratings.
The media mainstream political media is now National Enquirer level fake news. And god damn them for it. We deserve better these lying media scumbags.
BREAKING: Republicans get terrible news as polling reveals that 29% of Americans will blame them if there is a government shutdown — which is appropriate since Matt Gaetz has already admitted it's their fault.
The same survey found that only 13% said that they would blame Democrats, an unsurprising number since unfortunately a large swath of this country remains in the ignorant MAGA cult.
In the same vein, 14% said that would blame President Biden, which just demonstrates how little Trump supporters understand our government. Biden cannot fund the government, that power rests in the Republican-controlled House.
A final 32% of respondents said that they would blame Democrats, Republicans, and Biden if there's a shutdown. This surprisingly high number shows that despite their continued demonstrated inability to govern, Republicans have muddied the water around this issue.
To be clear: a government shutdown would be solely to blame on Republicans. Kevin McCarthy, perhaps the weakest and least respected Speaker of the House in history, is unable to corral the fascist wing of his party. This is his failure.
Thankfully, we can all play a part in dispelling the confusion. Spread the message that a shutdown would be a result of Republican incompetence and insanity.
We can shift these poll numbers to make them even worse for Republicans, get out the word!

"Whatever transpired at the Reagan Library wasn’t a presidential debate. It was a reality show for a niche audience of people in America who can’t stop watching political theater no matter how dishonest, banal and stupid it is."
More of my thoughts on last night's Republican debate: https://t.co/XCskr1Dfjc
This week House Republicans will hold generic hearings that they’ll falsely label an “impeachment inquiry” because they want to pretend they’re impeaching Biden. The media will go along with this lie. Your job is to push back and make clear this is NOT an impeachment inquiry.
Dr. Blasey Ford shared her stunning testimony 5 years ago today. I promised her I'd do everything in my power to ensure a full and proper investigation into her allegations was conducted.
Extremist Republicans want to cut Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.
We should protect and strengthen these bedrock programs, not cut them. Every American deserves the ability to retire with dignity.

BREAKING: Melania and Donald Trump are humiliated in front of millions of live national television viewers as The View hosts ridicule Trump over his latest court loss — and they CALL OUT grifter Melania.
It all started when host Whoopi Goldberg declared, “For years, I have mentioned that you-know-who was just playing at being a real estate tycoon and his competition show 'The Apprentice.'”
Host Joey Behar jumped in, stating, “What a loser he is!” — sending the other hosts and audience into a fit of laughter.
Behar continued, “Wait till Melania finds out he's only worth 800 bucks!”
At this point, the hosts and crowd shared yet another hearty laugh at Melania and Donald’s expense.
Adding insult to injury for Trump, Alyssa Farah Griffin, worked for Trump in the White House, declared, “Trump is a fraud, and a charlatan, and con man. This puts it into the starkest terms. This is how crazy it is. He inflated the value of Mar-a-Lago by 2,300%. That would be like saying my two-bedroom apartment is a multi-floor penthouse. An average person would be in jail for doing it. Here's the thing, because I do know the man decently well. He thinks that being a loser or being poor or struggling financially are the absolute worst things. He never learned that playground lesson that winning isn't everything. I honestly think seeing the sign on Trump Tower taken off Fifth Avenue would be more deafening to him than sitting in a prison cell because it says unequivocally that he is a loser."
Well said, ladies…

Trump just got busted for fraudulently claiming Mar-a-Lago was worth $1 billion. So now today he’s fraudulently claiming it’s worth nearly TWO billion. Unbelievably stupid thing to do just before the judge decides the size of Trump’s financial penalties.

The chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Milley, responds to Trump's threats against him:
"I can tell you that this military, this soldier, me, will never turn our back on that Constitution...
I wish those comments hadn't been made...I'll take appropriate measures to ensure my safety and the safety of my family."

Donald Trump does not seem to know where he is during tonight’s rally. He keeps addressing the crowd as if he is at a union shop.
He’s at a NON-UNION plant.
It’s like if someone were to go to a place called Four Seasons Total Landscaping and act like they were at a Four Seasons Hotel.
Oh wait.
