Trump administration 2024-2028

[brihard]

An hour and a half ago Trump posted on Truth Social that the U.S. will resume nuclear weapons testing. Totally rational, normal, balanced thing to do. I guess if he’s gonna give up on the Nobel Peace Prize, might as well really be obnoxious about it.

The rationale of ‘other countries testing programs’ is a bit perplexing; probably only North Korea has done active warheads tests in the past couple decades, though there have been a small handful of unconfirmed but suspected detonations over the years. Still, he may be tipping his hand on knowledge of non-public nuclear testing. Could be he only means non-warhead testing of delivery systems. His wording, though, definitely seems like he’s set to have Department of Energy shoot off a few nukes.

I checked and verified- the below screenshot is mine.

There is a woman down in the US who is getting pregnant and aborting on purpose multiple times per year just to spite Trump and USSC. Last time she was on CNN her t-shirt had her “body count” at 42.
It’s all just so over the top.

Nail her with fraud.

I swear, every few weeks shit like this starts making the rounds again, and it’s the same recycled talking points dressed up as “legal analysis.”

Andrew McCarthy has worked as a prosecuting attorney. His legal analysis of relevant US law is probably better than yours or mine. That Bragg's lawyering was creative isn't a fringe idea. I've read plenty of legal analysis, some by obviously Democrat-supporting or progressive-leaning lawyers, that concurs. Whatever anyone thinks, it's not a settled question, and there are plenty of hack judgements that were smacked down hard by higher level courts to show that judges are also capable of bringing high degrees of political bias to the courts. Some of Merchan's decisions turned a lot of heads on both sides of the political divide.

Wait for the appeal.

As for lawfare, there's no refuting that some people decided Trump ought to be guilty of something and subsequently went hunting for things to fit him up. They made promises and bragged when they made progress on those promises.
