‘Not Likely to Happen’ – Jonathan
Turley Explains Why Letitia James Won’t
be Able to Seize Trump’s Assets (VIDEO)

Constitutional law professor Jonathan Turley weighed in on Letitia James’ latest move to seize Trump’s assets. Marxist New York Attorney General Letitia James on Thursday took the initial step to seize Trump’s assets. She filed judgments in Westchester County where Trump’s private estate and golf course is located. President Trump has until Monday to either pay the judgment or convince the appellate court to allow him to defer the payment pending appeal. Turley said James’ effort to seize his assets and padlock Trump Tower is not likely to happen because Trump’s properties are complex partnerships with leveraged debt.

Next AG James will create debtor prisons for those who can't pay the court fines. Makes logical sense for Commie James and her gal pal Judge Engoran. Get the popcorn ready. We are about to see a judicial circle jerk.

At the end of the day, James and other lawfare litigants don't care if they win their cases. To them all that matters are slowing the GOP down and tainting Trump's reputation enough to turn supporters from putting him back in the White House.

Trump will be in office before James and Engoron get their filthy hands on one dime. You know they have some of that money earmarked for their personal use and anything that is not liquid will be much harder to flip.

She will do whatever the court lets her do, which is quite a bit. Higher courts will reverse things, but not before the November election. Their strategy to hamstring Trump seems to be working. Will it be enough, come November? That is anyone's guess.

The irony here is that in trying to hamstring Trump, they are making him a martyr. In do doing they are causing a lot of people they count on to leave the Commucrat plantation. Further, by trying to keep him off the campaign trail, they are giving him tons of news coverage of his martyrdom, thereby enraging even more people, causing them to don the red cap, which, interestingly, was the same color as the French revolutionaries when they stormed the Bastille! This year is going to be a lot of things, but dull is not one of them!

More than anything, this is about trying Trump in the court of public opinion. They want more Trump haters and to keep the ones they already have. It's an effective tactic. They don't have to actually do anything to Trump.

Turley is a pretty smart fellow, but he forgets that New York doesn't care about the law or what is right, this whole trial should have shown him that they can do pretty much whatever they want to do.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. chose Nicole Shanahan on Tuesday to be his vice presidential pick as he mounts an independent White House bid that has spooked national Democrats. Shanahan, 38, is a California lawyer and philanthropist who’s never held elected office. Shanahan leads Bia-Echo Foundation, an organization she founded to direct money toward issues including women’s reproductive science, criminal justice reform and environmental causes. Kennedy, a former Democrat, made the announcement in Oakland, California. “Nicole and I both left the Democratic Party,” she said. “Our values didn’t change. The Democratic Party did.”

Former President Donald Trump is urging Republicans in Michigan to target Black voters in Detroit and other predominantly African American areas in the swing state, state GOP leaders said Monday. Michigan GOP leaders, including the state party’s new chair, traveled to Florida to strategize the Trump campaign’s approach to winning the state in 2024. Much of the discussion centered on southeast Michigan, an area with large groups of minority voters who have been critical of President Joe Biden, particularly over his handling of the Israel-Hamas war that has caused high civilian casualties in Gaza.
The Biden Administration Takes a Swipe
at Credit Card Industry

Now they're trying to stop Capital One from acquiring the credit card company Discover. That's a bizarre cease-and-desist order, because this acquisition by Capital One would INCREASE rather than inhibit competition in an industry that processes two-thirds of retail store and online transactions worth $5 trillion each year. Americans love swiping and tapping for their shopping. To suggest that the acquisition of two companies that control less than 10% of the market is anti-competitive is a proposition that borders on the absurd. For years the Federal Trade Commission and retailers have argued falsely that there isn't competition in the credit card market. There are dozens of credit cards issued by banks and retailers
Why the Russians Cut Off a Moscow Bombing
Suspect’s Ear and Made Him Eat It

Last Friday, terrorists attacked Moscow’s “Crocus City Hall” music venue, killing over a hundred people. My condolences to their families. Within a day, leaked footage showed a suspect getting his ear cut off and being made to eat it. Additional footage showed a suspect in great pain with electrical equipment attached to his genitals. It was the type of gruesome footage from which we tend to turn away. We form our private opinions and don’t discuss them. I fear the silence allows some observers to regard this as extreme but effective justice. Perhaps people will tell themselves the word that has justified centuries of Russia’s self-inflicted tyranny: “order.”

Liberal Massachusetts is overrun with illegal border crossers and there’s really no wonder why when you see the laundry list of things that are provided for ‘free’ courtesy of taxpayers in the Bay State. All of these perks just act as incentives, driving more illegals into the state. And remember, there are American citizens in Massachusetts who are poor and don’t get nearly as much from the state. Longtime Boston talk host Howie Carr posted this list on his website: Three meals a day at $64 per person per diem. Free on-site medical & dental services (including condoms). Special diet for Ramadan. Free same-day dry cleaning w/free pick up & delivery.

In the decade I served on a school board, I learned a great deal about group dynamics. The most important lesson, I suppose, is that there are people -- most often highly neurotic people -- who deliberately create chaos. They undermine every effort to rationally deal with issues that require solutions. They violate norms like crediting the work of committees that were designated to analyze what needs to be done and offer solutions for the board to act on, dispiriting those desirous of accomplishing what must be done. They go behind the backs of board members to undercut the systematic workings of the board,
Trump Wins Louisiana Republican Primary

The results of the Louisiana Republican primary are in and Trump won the day. Louisiana is a ‘winner takes all’ state, so Trump also won every delegate. Trump won Louisiana in the general elections of 2016 and 2020. Former President Trump, the likely GOP nominee, has won the Louisiana Republican presidential primary, Decision Desk HQ projected. Trump went into the Louisiana primary with 1,636 pledged delegates and won all 47 delegates available Saturday. The state awards its delegates in a “winner-take-all” manner. The former president has already crossed the threshold needed to clinch the party’s nomination, setting up a rematch between him and President Biden in November

CNN data analyst Harry Enten recently cited a new poll which shows Trump with a nearly insurmountable lead over Biden on the issue of border security. It’s very easy to understand why. It’s just amazing that CNN reported on this. And remember, this is now the top issue for the 2024 election, even eclipsing the economy. Mediaite reports: CNN elections analyst Harry Enten observed that polling suggests that President Joe Biden is on pace for the worst performance by a Democratic presidential candidate with Hispanics “since we started polling the gosh darn thing” in an appearance on Anderson Cooper 360 Wednesday night.

After so-called "progressive prosecutors" implemented supposedly "equitable" standards in response to widespread violence in the summer of 2020 that caused upwards of $2 billion in damage across the country, the natural consequences of soft-on-crime policies followed: more crime and more victims. Democrats continue to insist that their embrace of such lenient policies and programs — ones that treat perpetrators as victims while pushing actual victims to the margins — have not, in fact, caused more crime. Democrats say that "progressive" policies have actually helped reduce crime and claim FBI crime statistics prove as much.

Astonishing footage shows the moment the vessel plowed into the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, sending the colossal steel structure crashing into the Patapsco River, shortly before 1.30am Eastern. There were no immediate reports of any casualties but there did appear to be traffic on the bridge at the time of the catastrophe.The US Coast Guard and the Maryland Transportation Authority confirmed the crash but provided no further details.

At least eight states are planning to ban the sale of new gas-powered cars in the next decade - and others are considering joining them. Only zero-emission vehicles can be sold in participating states beginning from the 2035 model year, according to the Advanced Clean Cars II legislation. The rule, which was first adopted by California, means that automakers and dealerships would be banned from selling new gas cars in these states from that point onwards. Americans will not be forced to take their gas-powered cars off the road, however, and will still be able to buy used and secondhand gas vehicles. These states have gone further

Former Enron advisor and current New York Times columnist Paul Krugman is angry at farmers. What’s earned his wrath is that they vote for Donald Trump. He says they vote for Trump because they’re afflicted with “white rural rage.” Let’s examine the components of Krugman’s catchy phrase “white rural rage.” As for rural, it is certainly true that Trump does better in rural areas than in, say, downtown Chicago or Baltimore. Then again, everybody does better – wherever they are – than they would in the toilets of downtown Chicago or Baltimore.
