Fox 'News' citing Nixon as the standard of truth was not on my bingo card.

I think they are being facetious. It was when Nixon said that he saw the end, Judge Sirica had enough then and the tide had turned

Have you watched much Fox?

They generally don't do facetious.

There’s part of me that would just wish one of these groups would just try it. They’d last ten minutes.

It’s cosplay when in person, and losers who are trying to get someone — anyone — to pay attention to them after a life of “attention deprivation” if it’s on TikTok. Actually, both cosplay and attention deprivation if in person. Take the guy who got killed by LE after visiting the FBI field office in Cincy, who ran away when he heard the alarm. And he’s one of the most “courageous”/desperate ones. They haven’t a prayer of fomenting anything. As I said before, I’m only afraid of their votes.

The guy on the left is running for Congress, and if elected actually has a say in the law making process that has an effect on EVERY SINGLE CITIZEN.

They are so f*cked.

Poor soul. Too many knocks to the head playing Fool's ball.

Are you confusing him with Herchel Walker?

(there are so many to choose from)

Worth a watch.

No. He played college football as well, wide receiver.

So - being reported Trumps passport was also taken by the FBI - I did wonder why he has hung around for the inevitable

Why is Trump suddenly whining about them today?

Was he looking for them?

If true* this alone 'Trumps' Watergate in terms of seriousness, but in the whole crime spree just a drop in the ocean.



*Spoiler - It probably is true

It does feel like the net is rapidly closing in on him now.

Garland got a lot of grief since he was appointed but he’s laid the groundwork and the Mar a Lago raid was the beginning of the end game. Talk on fox of a grand jury being empanelled and seizing collaborators phones to image them without prior warning to cover up their involvement.

Rudy and Graham are now implicated in the Georgia election fraud investigation and that brings state charges alongside the federal ones.


I’m worried there’s going to be lives lost in something akin to a more bloody January 6th when he is finally arrested but maybe that’s what has to happen for the majority of the republicans base to finally snap out of it and break with him.

If not, I don’t know what else you can do, you can’t let fear of violence stop the law being applied.

Now this.



When you've lost Fox...

I think Fox needs to tread very carefully.

It’s always been dishonest but some of the rhetoric they pumped out when the raid first happened and they were struggling to find a United line to fall behind was downright dangerous and the kind of stuff that would look really, really bad in the aftermath of bloodshed.

If Trumps lot try and fail with violence there’s going to be one hell of a backlash and something like a new fairness doctrine could come out of it and permanently cripple them.

It's good to see him finally refurbishing his private jet to a useable condition. That $250 million bogus 'legal defense fund' has certainly come in handy. He's already refurbished one of his failing hotels from that pot.

Tomi has been a pretty reliable source on most things Trumpian.
