"The postponement of the Manhattan trial — the first prosecution of a former American president — stems from the recent disclosure of more than 100,000 pages of investigative records that may have some bearing on the case. Mr. Trump’s lawyers sought a 90-day delay of the trial, citing the records, which were recently turned over by federal prosecutors who had previously investigated the same conduct."

"The delay in Manhattan also came on the same day that Mr. Trump’s other state case — in Georgia, where he has been accused of tampering with the results of the 2020 election — had its own tumultuous development: One of the proceeding’s top prosecutors, who had a romantic relationship with the district attorney who filed the indictment, stepped down after a judge decided that one of them had to go."

Neither of these are Trump caused delays.
And in the Georgia case Fani Willis was just ordered to pay $54000 over an open records violation.
The Florida documents case didn't end well for the prosecution either. The alleged "classified documents" were apparently recently returned to Trump.

The 2 "leaders" of the $250 million food fraud were found guilty on all counts after 5 hours of jury deliberation. The trial on Federal charges began in Feb.

Charges were filed in .............2022.
I know. The defense should have contacted Trump's defense teams for better advice on delay tactics. Or, the defense obviously used Trump delay tactics and were better at it. Or some other bs.
And a reminder that the Dem VP nominee in the 2024 election said that tho nobody in state government caught the fraud, nobody in state government did anything "illegal" in not catching it.

Here's my Gov. People may get the chance to vote for him, again, in 2028.

How would he be up for re-election as Governor in 2028?

He's done.

Crowing over Tesla stock dropping is such a brutal look. Elon is doing some severe damage to what is really a pretty good company with a solid, well respected product, in a growth market that could future proof the US Automotive industry. I can understand being upset with the dumbassery of Elon being given power inside the US Government, and the dumbass shit he's doing with said power, but what is happening to Tesla as a company is pretty bad.

And I'm not talking about the stock really. Even with its growth potential, it was definitely overpriced at 400+ a share. But the brand falling apart and the residual damage to the company - even more so for its employee base than the product line - is just bad news.

In the end he was just a meme candidate at the National level. Look at his rallies, just sound bites of snark for the most part. "Weird". Compared to say, Shapiro, who ground through actual law and policy. Pritzker has been exposed to a lot of high level finance and economics prior to being Governor. Kelly was higher level in the Military. That's not necessarily important for our idiocracy of voters, but Walz really didn't add much.

Governor of some backwater state, fine. I mean, we are talking about a state that still exists in reasonable form after electing Jesse The Body Ventura. California is still humming along despite electing Arnold Schwarzenegger. How did two actors from Predator become Governor? Though Arnold is actually quite smart and well read, I have a lot of respect for the guy.

One my family members said they voted for Trump because because America should be run like a business and Trump knows how to run a business.

If Government should be run like a business, the goal is to be profitable. As such it would raise taxes and cut expenditures.

That would imply things like shutting down the USPS, or at the very least combining thousands of rural post offices. Why is there a Post Office in New Holland? Emden? They all should go to Lincoln for their mail. And instead of routes, people all just go to Post Office boxes. Some places should get no service at all.

Then someone in Mason City says "I do an Ebay/Etsy business from home, and if I have to go to Lincoln, it doesn't pencil out" and they shut down. The Post Office was losing money servicing them (and some of their rural customers who would also have service eliminated), but they made money and created economic activity beyond the cost of that local post office service. So the Post Office "loses money" but the country writ large makes money. That's the leap that many can't make

Elon too. Maybe he'll try to get rid of it, but Trump's base includes a lot of 80 year olds who sure as hell aren't doing online billpay.

The USPS is supposed to be self funded. Taxpayers bailed them out during COVID and they’ve taken emergency loans from Congress. They’re on a plan to be self sustaining and are actually turning a profit this quarter for the first time in a while.
