‘Twisted logic’: DOJ vet Katyal shreds Trump as fraud receipts blow up at trial

Published

on



In a new filing, Donald Trump urged an appeals court to keep his gag order on pause in his civil fraud trial and accused the judge of “brazen” and “unmitigated” violations of the constitution. Former U.S. Solicitor General Neal Katyal calls the filing a “extension of the same twisted logic Donald Trump has always used to defend himself.” NYU law professor Melissa Murray also joins MSNBC’s Katie Phang to discuss.

    These MAGA folks have ZERO respect for law & are avid opponents of justice. They are at heart racists & neo-confederate/fascists whose primary political motivation is the overthrow of our democracy by advancing an authoritarian regime. They hide their evil intentions behind the Bible. The GQP has become a very dangerous organization.

    Donald J Trump is using subliminal messaging to carry out his threats and he will continue to play on his first Amendment rights to threaten Judges Prosecutor's and those civilians who just work in the judicial system. Donald J Trump won't be stopped until his guttersnipe rhetoric gets someone killed. We all seen what happened January sixth capital rioting orchestrated by Donald J Trump and his co conspirators, 2021 after he lost the election.

    I think the "to gag or not to gag" would be a whole different and more valuable argument to the defendant if the defendants comments were not flat out lies!

    This trial is election interference. Pretty pathetic that Biden is trying to lock up his political opponent. He wouldn't have to worry about it if he wasn't 😮the worst president we've ever had. These people made their entire campaign about getting Trump for anything they could come up with. You people are ridiculous.

    dumper don needs an exorcist. What else can explain his dramatic decline and his vile words and behavior? Dementia? Many people with that disease don't act like him. Narcissism? Maybe, but that still doesn't explain his extreme vileness.

    When Trump was the POTUS, we had low inflation, gas prices under $2 a gallon, a secured southern border, the U.S. Petroleum Reserves were filled, the U.S. was the #1 oil producer in the world, the U.S. wasn't at war, ISIS reign of terror came to an end, the U.S. military was strengthened, every working American received an income tax cut, 100s of job killing regulations were ended, everyone was able to find a job who wanted one, crime was down except for large cities controlled by Dems, moved the U.S. Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, removed the U.S. from the costly Paris Climate Accords, Trump gave his $400k annual paycheck while POTUS to charity (i.e. $1.6 million), replaced the unfair NAFTA trade agreement with the USMCA trade agreement, chose three great constitutionalist Supreme Court justices whom helped end Roe v Wade, and when Trump was the POTUS, school children knew what a female was!!!!

    Trump one guy, 1 criminal 1 jail cell awaits him. I don't see what the problem is with our judicial system trying to get rid of that poison.

    This seems to be a racist attack on Trump and his real estate holdings. I guess the government will go after Blacks, Hebrews and Chinese who own real estate in NY next. That would be fair.

Trump suffers the consequences of poor staffing choices

Published

Jen Psaki looks at why Donald Trump is likely regretting staffing his administration based on culture war credibility rather than competence as FBI director Kash Patel’s antics appear to have reached critical mass, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is spending energy being upset about beards while being unable to end the war with Iran, and Vice President JD Vance is buying himself a multi-million dollar estate in the midst of a political season in which “affordability” is the biggest theme.
