There hasn't been much movement furthering the prosecution of the orange menace in the last couple weeks, but there have been some developments.

The Yelling Yellowy Yahoo requested an "indefinite" delay of trial. He wants it to happen after the election, when, presumably, he wins, he would make it all go away. Prosecutor Jack Smith said no way, Jose. The judge hasn't made a ruling on the motion.
The investigation continues. We knew already that the investigation has been ongoing, and the grand jury was talking to more witnesses with the possibility of new indictments. The New York Times reports that there have been witnesses testifying about boxes of documents that may have been stored in T****'s other Florida golf clubs at Doral and Jupiter. ABC News reported on Friday that a low-level staffer has been sent a "target letter," which is a warning of imminent indictment. It has to do with the handling of surveillance tapes.
He's been foaming at the mouth, as per usual, but the judge has been restrained in her admonishment. As in, no admonishment. Prosecutor Smith also has been silent. They don't want to give him any more ammo for victimhood if they appear to impinge on his 1st Amendment rights. Read about it in The Washington Post. What makes me so angry is that Smith and others are in real danger from the nut jobs that hang on T****'s every word.
Walt Nauta pleaded not guilty. A trial date has not been set. His attorneys have asked for a delay. It's been a scramble for Nauta to get a lawyer, period. He finally got one, Sasha Dadan, who The Washington Post says specializes in "criminal defense, family law, personal injury and traffic tickets," but presumably not espionage. In any case the attorney will need security clearance before the proceedings can truly get underway.
There is a hearing expected Tuesday, July 18. It will concern the handling of the classified documents at the center of the case. And as such, it probably will not be public.
In the Indictment Hat Trick news, a new grand jury has been seated in Fulton County, Georgia, and District Attorney Fani Willis is moving ahead. An indictment may come within weeks.
In the impending FOURTH indictment news, son-in-law Jared Kushner testified in front of the grand jury and was questioned about any acknowledgements that his wife's daddy made about the understanding that he lost the 2020 presidential election. Reporting indicates that Kushner stated he thought T**** really did believe the election was "stolen," but this contradicts other witnesses. Alyssa Farah Griffin, for example, testified to this during the Jan 6 House Committee hearings. According to the New York Times, "Repeating an account she provided last year to the House select committee on Jan. 6, she told prosecutors this spring that Mr. Trump had said to her in the days after the election: Can you believe I lost to Joe Biden?
'In that moment I think he knew he lost,' Ms. Griffin told the House committee."
In 2024 election news, T**** is wavering on if he will debate in the first GOP showdown. You best stay away. Cuz you'll be eviscerated, you moron. Chris Christie would destroy him. Christie has not been holding back in his criticisms of him, calling him a "liar and a coward." Christie's Super PAC taunted T**** with the questions "Are you a chicken or a loser?"
I predict the GOP will continue to eat their own as they work out the adolescent "Freedom Caucus" part of them (which may take years), and Biden will win re-election easily.
Speaking of Freedom Caucus. Empty Gee (thanks sister resister Anne for the nickname for Marge!) was kicked out of the caucus last week. It bears the question: is she too crazy or not crazy enough for them?
Well, I've diverged. I'll keep you updated!
But before I go, Randy Rainbow has asked us to
Picture his ass in a bright orange jumpsuit....
