Reminder; The judge is not off-limits, per the #GagOrder

Via Kyle Griffin:

Less than 24 hours after being hit with an expanded gag order in the criminal hush money case, Donald #Trump is already attacking Judge Juan Merchan again.

Yeah, I wonder how many people know there's a MAGA plan to literally imprison people for porn, as Trump faces a criminal trial for deceiving voters over money he paid a porn actress for sex and silence.

Trump and Fox News can't stop talking about how, under Biden, America is becoming a SOCIALIST COUNTRY

But corporate profits under Biden have EXPLODED

In the last three months of 2023, corporate profits reached an all-time high of $2.8 trillion

Record profits have been driven, in part, by a spike in profit margins

So if there is a conspiracy to turn the United States socialist, it is going VERY POORLY

do these people not understand how busy we are???????

Judge Merchan has had to spell out the obvious for Trump: he may not taint proceedings in his trial for criminal misuse of campaign funds by attacking family members of judge, prosecutor, or anybody else involved in the trial. https://www.yahoo.com/news/judge-expands-trumps-gag-order-001725793.html? 1/

In just two troubling proposals, Project 2025 calls for blocking “federal financial aid for up to two-thirds of all American college students if their state permits certain immigrant groups, including Dreamers w/legal status, to access in-state tuition," as well terminating their #DACA status "by eliminating staff time for reviewing and processing renewal applications": https://americasvoice.org/blog/trumps-2025-immigration-agenda/

How do we know Hope Hicks flip was the worst part? Because Trump has a tell. It is his vocabulary malfunctions

His past record was 3 vocabulary malfunctions in a day (several times) the last time that happened was June 6, 2023. That was when he'd heard Jack Smith would indict Trump (was on 9 Jun)

This is an excellent thread on U.S. media and our political situation from a @flux contributor imo. I didn't read the article, but I bet it's good too.

So far, only 2,800 Threads accounts have turned on Federation. Of the ones I see, they’re quite active.

I suspect the reason for the minuscule federated accounts is because Threads users can’t see replies from the Fediverse yet. Why would you turn on federation if you’re oblivious to interactions from the Fediverse?

Nevertheless, we’ll see what happens once communication becomes two-way.

Have you seen the video of the pro-Hamas American Arabs interrupting Easter service in Catholic churches shouting out stuff like #FreePalestine

Anyways, that they're attacking Catholics because of what they are accusing the Jews of doing really indicates to me how much of this is a Russian political technology campaign weaponizing our poorly educated population this election year.
