12 comments

1. Good Thursday morning everybody.

2. It’s nice when criminal trials happen instead of being indefinitely delayed by lackies of the defendant.

3. Lol he brought his puppy, Rick Scott. But still no family besides Eric.

4. Popcorn? For breakfast? Ok.

5. He’s going to be extra sleepy today since he was up all night partying with the nft bros.

6. Did Trump order the Code Red?

   YOU’RE GODDAMN RIGHT HE DID.

7. I wish they’d landed a judge who’s in session 5 days a week. This is going to take forever.

   From CNN:

   Judge no longer allowing photography in the courtroom, reports say
   From journalists inside the courtroom

   Photography inside the courtroom will no longer be permitted because someone in the photo pool violated the court order, according to reports from journalists inside the courtroom.

   A court officer told the photographers outside of the courtroom that Judge Juan Merchan was no longer allowing photos for the rest of the trial, the reports said.

   A photo was taken of Trump from the aisle while walking into the well, or the area where the court proceedings happen, an officer told journalists, according to reports.

   The order allows photographers to snap photos from the well, the officer said, according to the reports.

8. Thanks for the discussion thread.

   Trump seemed supremely confident on his way in this morning, like they think they have some ace up their sleeve regarding the gag order.

   Twenty minutes in and so far his lawyers have managed to get reprimanded for playing the wrong tape during cross.

9. Alright I’m betting on 5 naps and 3 violations of the gag order

10. The fact Stormy Daniels wanted money or not seems irrelevant. Because Trump still paid her in an illegal way

11. I look forward to today’s unflattering courtroom sketches of Mango Man.

12. Happy Thursday everyone! Anyone know who is testifying today other than Stormy?
