I’m sincerely hopeful that Trump is so completely preoccupied trying to get back on social media, any social media, that he can’t think of anything else. He’s a junkie without a fix right now.

I don’t know Trump, but I would be there, the only thing that would aliviate that would be doing some exercise and eating at the park or similar so… golfing?

I dunno if y’all are aware but the videos on Twitter and Facebook under the hashtag #noflylist are just marvelous and y’all need to see 'em. Here’s a good compilation.

Just so everyone is aware, most of these videos have nothing to do with last week’s riot, or the NoFly list, but rather are of people being denied boarding for refusing to wear a mask. (Some of the videos are from last year; the guy who says he’s being “treated like a black person” is from 2018.)

A good discussion of that, and the “a guy died because he tased himself in the balls” rumor, from, of all places, Wonkette. Also Snopes and Daniel Dale.

In other words, he’s not resigning out of principle, he’s resigning because courts have said that he was appointed illegally and has no power.

He has no power to resign!

Ryan says he is going to get more information on the arrest. Clarifies he's unsure if it was a USCP officer or a Guardsman and the reason for the arrest.

The prosecution could literally call up anyone to be a witness, because the whole world was watching.

That probably doesn’t count as good lawyering, but I have to give him credit for being straightforward about it.
