Republicans responded to De Niro's press conference by giving him all of their attention instead of Trump. And folks on the left applauded this loudly. We should always be on the offense, and we can never let Trump get airtime without a counter. Onward.

#Steinglass discusses Jan 2017, the month #Trump was inaugurated. He describes a meeting between #MichaelCohen & #AllenWeisselberg who Cohen testified had made the arrangements to reimburse Cohen for the #HushMoney. “Right on the bank statement, Weisselberg & Cohen calculated all the money that was owed to Cohen,” Steinglass says.

Here's Trump-o-phile Nikki Haley writing a message to Palestinians on a 155-mm artillery shell Israel will launch into Gaza. This seems...bad.

Closing arguments have concluded in the first criminal trial of a former US president. The jury is expected to begin deliberations tomorrow on the 34 felony counts Donald Trump is facing.

#Blanche addresses the 3 specific #CatchAndKill deals prosecutors allege #Pecker was involved in, all of which they say were designed to protect #Trump. Defense argues all 3 stories are false.

He characterizes the 1st, involving a doorman at a #TrumpOrganization bldg, as “literally a made up story designed to harm President Trump.”

Blanche talks about Playboy model #KarenMcDougal who sold the rights to her story of an affair w/Trump to The #NationalEnquirer's parent co, #AMI.

"'Not one mention of a fallen soldier who died for our country because Trump calls them losers. Just more grievance about him. Trump doesn’t care about you or the country.'

KTLA journalist David Lazarus said: 'The simple fact is that if we did away with the archaic Electoral College, a man like this would never again get within reach of the presidency.'"

Extending Trump's tax cuts would add an absurd $4.6 trillion to the deficit.

You probably didn't hear Republicans talk about this.

When we push for programs that will help people, the deficit hawks are
everywhere.

Now, they're nowhere to be found.

Funny how that works, huh?

In closing arguments Tues, Trump’s lawyers are expected to cast #AllenWeisselberg as the prosecution’s missing piece, an elusive central player…. They will likely try to argue to the #jury that the case depends on #MichaelCohen, whose testimony provided the only evidence that #Trump had direct knowledge of the plot to disguise the #HushMoney reimbursement as #legal fees

Perhaps it’s important to say, for those of you not in the same loop I’m in, that my friends & colleagues in Israel are in the streets demonstrating against the war and the corrupt Netanyahu government every day. The families of the hostages are also out in the streets demanding new elections. Every death - Palestinian and Israeli - is heartbreaking.

And for anyone thinking that trump is going to be a great friend to Israel, he’s not. Netanyahu and trump are bit from the same cloth. Both are dangerous.
