(Finally, A Break in the Trump-GOP wall)

'You pay the price': Nikki Haley denounces Jan. 6 during Iowa visit

Republican 2024 hopeful and former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley made an opposing view against former President Donald Trump clear Thursday by denouncing the Jan. 6 insurrection, NBC News reports.

During CNN's town hall with the former president earlier this month, Trump continued to push the 2020 election fraud lies that ultimately led to the attack, and vowed to pardon rioters found guilty.
According to NBC, the former governor was asked during an Ankeny, Iowa town hall event about "how she could ensure a 'fair and speedy' trial for those charged over their alleged actions on Jan. 6."

Haley replied, "It was not a beautiful day, it was a terrible day, and we don't ever want that to happen again. I don't know enough about each individual [rioter] but that's my rule: If you break the law, you pay the price. And so I think that's the way we need to look at it."


NBC notes soon after the insurrection took place "Haley said the former president's 'actions since Election Day will be judged harshly by history,' telling "Politico in January 2021 'he went down a path he shouldn’t have, and we shouldn't have followed him, and we shouldn't have listened to him. And we can’t let that ever happen again."

Amazing how brave she is now that she's not Trump mouthpiece. Never forget her complicity in his behaviour. 

Ironically she's exactly like Trump. Everything she does with and to others is purely transactional to benefit her and her only.

No doubt she is self-serving but maybe, just maybe, some light is creeping into the GOP that they are beginning to realize that Trump and his sycophants will lead them into obscurity. All journeys begin with a single step.

Nope, just positioning themselves for a run for president. Nimarata will do and say anything for power.

Fani Willis Signals August Georgia Indictment For Trump’s Crew

In a new letter, Fulton County, Georgia DA Fani Willis signaled an August timeline for indictments of Trump’s gang that tried to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia.

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis hinted that she might seek indictments in early to mid-August in her long-running inquiry of former President Donald Trump and his allies.

The timetable was disclosed in a Thursday letter to Ural Glanville, Fulton Superior Court’s chief judge, and 20 other county officials. Willis listed 10 days between July 31 and August 18 in which she plans to direct a large percentage of her staff to work remotely.

“This remote work will reduce the number of Fulton County District Attorney’s office staff in the Fulton County Courthouse and Government Center by approximately 70%,” Willis noted, adding that only her leadership team, armed investigators and a couple of other teams will be working in the building those days.

The Georgia indictments will come in the same month as the first 2024 Republican primary debate. Donald Trump has already threatened to skip the debate which will be hosted by Fox News in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

The dumbing down of society in full view for all to see. 

Just shows how harmful brainwashing children with religious beliefs at a young age can be, many live the rest of their lives as damaged goods handcuffed to past teachings.

"Hey, teacher, leave them kids alone."

Carroll takes action over Trump CNN attack — experts say "verdict could be greater than $5 million"

E.Jean Carroll, a longtime columnist who was awarded $5 million in damages after a jury found Donald Trump liable for sexual abuse and defamation earlier this month, is taking aim at the former president once more. 

Carroll in a Monday filing in Manhattan federal court asked for a "very substantial" additional amount of money from Trump over comments he made during an appearance on CNN only a day after being found liable. The New York Times reported that the filing is part of a separate defamation lawsuit that Carroll filed against Trump in 2019 — Carroll alleged that Trump raped her in a department store dressing room in the late 1990s, subsequently slandering her name by denying the event when she went public. 

During his May 10 CNN town hall, Trump doubled down on his long-standing rejection of Carroll's claims, arguing they were "fake" and "made up." The ex-president denied having ever met Carroll — despite a photograph of the two together — and called her a "wack job," while referring to the trial as "a rigged deal."

Carroll responded to Trump's CNN sit-down in an interview with Times, saying, "It's just stupid; it's just disgusting, vile, foul; it wounds people."

The writer's most recent filing asserts that Trump's remarks "show the depth of his malice toward Carroll, since it is hard to imagine defamatory conduct that could possibly be more motivated by hatred, ill will or spite."

"This conduct supports a very substantial punitive damages award in Carroll's favor both to punish Trump, to deter him from engaging in further defamation, and to deter others from doing the same," the filing says.

Ron DeSantis entered the contest for the Republican presidential nomination on Wednesday, setting up several combative months on the campaign trail with former president Donald Trump.

Desantis, 44, filed his declaration of candidacy with the Federal Election Commission ahead of a more unusual launch event planned for later in the day  — with billionaire Elon Musk on Twitter.

Trump Staffers Moved Boxes of Docs a Day Before FBI Raid: Report

Two of Donald Trump’s employees allegedly moved boxes of papers just a day before the FBI descended on Mar-a-Lago to retrieve classified documents, The Washington Post reports. The paper cites unnamed sources as saying Trump and his aides even carried out a “dress rehearsal” for moving sensitive documents well before receiving a May 2022 subpoena from the Justice Department. If true, the details would strengthen investigators’ case against Trump for potential obstruction of justice and could shed light on his intent in taking the documents with him once he left the White House.

Q: Okay, now we're cooking. Now what?

A: Nothing.

If they don't indict Trump for stealing classified documents then they might as well let him become President for life and let America burn. Oh and a lot of his enemies will be arrested, Ukraine will fall and the probability of a civil war will be greatly upped.
