  1. Don't take all the fun out of this! Speculation until the facts come in and then we'll be holy shit, the man is broke!
  2. You mean Trump going from the penthouse to the big house? Works for me. (lock him up!)
  3. Hmmm, Former President Donald Trump has not been able to get a bond to secure the $464 million fraud judgment against him, his lawyers said in a court filing Monday. Trump and his company need to post a bond for the full amount by next week in order to stop New York Attorney General Letitia James from being able to collect while he appeals. They've asked an appeals court to step in in the meantime and said Monday that they have not had any success getting a bond. "Defendants’ ongoing diligent efforts have proven that a bond in the judgment’s full amount is 'a practical impossibility,'" the filing said. "These diligent efforts have included approaching about 30 surety companies through 4 separate brokers." Trump has been unable to get bond for $464 million judgment, his lawyers say (nbcnews.com)
  4. Trump’s rhetoric is an example of stochastic terrorism, which he used to terrible effect culminating on J6. And that’s what this is too. From Wikipedia: Stochastic terrorism refers to political or media figures publicly demonizing a person or group in such a way that it inspires supporters of the figures to commit a violent act against the target of the speech. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stochastic_terrorism
  5. I did read the article before I posted it, and as it reads, it looks to me that Trump said "“Now if I don’t get elected, it’s going to be a bloodbath for the whole — that’s gonna be the least of it,” he added. “It’s going to be a bloodbath for the country. I see what you are saying, but to me "If I don't get elected, it's going to be a bloodbath for the whole [country]." Means exactly that. Remember Trump's "Stand back and stand by." quote? To me, his bloodbath comment is like that. MAGA's don't do nuance and they heard the 'going to be a bloodbath' loud and clear. Could I be wrong, I sure hope so but wouldn't bet on it.
  6. Trump calls for "bloodbath" if he doesn't win the election, at a campaign speech in Ohio yesterday. “Now if I don’t get elected, it’s going to be a bloodbath for the whole — that’s gonna be the least of it,” he added. “It’s going to be a bloodbath for the country. .... Later, he added, “If this election isn’t won, I’m not sure that you’ll ever have another election in this country.” Trump says there will be a ‘bloodbath’ if he loses the election (nbcnews.com)
  7. Hello Fellow Air Force Brat! I was born on Ramey Air Force Base, Puerto Rico.
  8. Redwood trees in the UK! I didn't know that. Giant redwoods - the world's largest trees - are flourishing in the UK and now even outnumber those found in their native range in California. The giants were first brought to the UK about 160 years ago, and a new study suggests they are growing at a similar rate to their US counterparts. An estimated 500,000 trees are in the UK compared to 80,000 in California. Giant redwoods: World’s largest trees 'thriving in UK' (bbc.com)
  9. Ugh. ATLANTA (AP) — The judge overseeing the Georgia election interference case on Wednesday dismissed some of the charges against former President Donald Trump, but many other counts in the indictment remain. Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee wrote in an order that six of the counts in the indictment must be quashed, including three against Trump, the presumptive 2024 Republican presidential nominee. But the order leaves intact other charges, and the judge wrote that prosecutors could seek a new indictment on the charges he dismissed.

  10. An employee who has worked at Mar-A-Lago for 20 years speaks out. A longtime Mar-a-Lago employee who is a central witness in the investigation into former President Donald Trump’s handling of classified documents is now speaking publicly because he believes that voters should hear the truth about his former boss and the case before the November election. Brian Butler, who is referenced as “Trump Employee 5” in the classified documents indictment brought by special counsel Jack Smith, told CNN in an exclusive interview that he doesn’t believe the criminal case against Trump is a “witch hunt,” as the former president has claimed.

  11. Here is an article about Trump's takeover of the RNC. Donald Trump’s newly installed leadership team at the Republican National Committee on Monday began the process of pushing out dozens of officials, according to two people close to the Trump campaign and the RNC. All told, the expectation is that more than 60 RNC staffers who work across the political, communications and data departments will be let go. Those being asked to resign include five members of the senior staff, though the names were not made public. Additionally, some vendor contracts are expected to be cut......Trump’s campaign took over operational control of the RNC on Monday. On Friday, former North Carolina GOP Chair Michael Whatley was elected the RNC’s new chair, and Trump daughter-in-law Lara Trump was elected as co-chair. Both had Trump’s endorsement. Additionally, Trump senior campaign adviser Chris LaCivita was named as the RNC’s new chief of staff. Bloodbath at RNC: Trump team slashes staff at committee - POLITICO
  12. Did you know that Burning Man is in Northern Nevada? It's true!
  13. Senator Britt getting slammed by the woman she lied about in the SOTU Republican rebuttal. Karla Jacinto Romero, the woman whose story Sen. Katie Britt appeared to have shared in the Republican response to the State of the Union last week, slammed the Alabama senator for inaccurately using her story to highlight Joe Biden’s immigration policies. “In fact I hardly ever cooperate with politicians because it seems to me that they only want an image. They only want a photo, and that to me is not fair,” Romero told CNN on Sunday. Sex trafficking survivor slams Britt for inaccurate story in SOTU response - POLITICO
  14. There is more to Nevada than Vegas, and plenty of high gas prices statewide.
