If there is a Dog, please let it bring justice to the being called Ted Cruz. Pleeze Dog.

After they do Donald or have him well on his way, if anybody does Ted and the rest of the assholes in congress it will be Mark Meadows, who is in the early stages of selling everybody out, now that an indictment dropped on him in Georgia. Once Jack gets Donald's scalp on his belt, he will have a lot more confidence in going after congress people and should have lots of rats by the time he is done with Trump's cronies and minions. After putting Trump and his cronies away, if he wanted to go after republicans in congress, Garland could not stop him without losing his job.

Every Friday sorta late I look for two stray cats, one unto Zool and one unto Cthulhu.

(I’m not sure which one is Prime Mover of All Under The Evil Star and which one is Senior Executive Vice-etc. so it’s two cats, two pentacles, twice the bother)

(it helps that I’m on the outskirts of the middle of west nowhere, so nobody can see, hear or smell the ritual doings)

… that Kevin McCarthy, SlOTH himself, might be tangled up in undeniable, inescapable seditious felony.

Not a lotta snakes around (and I kinda like snakes, so there’s that) so I I’m generating enough kiloCat-hours to get through to the boss

let MosCarthy be disgraced O dark one

I think if Joe wins in 24, that after a spell, he should make Jack Smith the new AG! The remaining magats in congress would go nuts, especially if he put a few of them away over J6! I wonder what his senate confirmation hearings would be like, with a few missing republican faces of course... :lol: Yep, Garland retires in 2026 and Joe appoints Jack as AG. Once Jack nails Trump and his minions he will become a legal legend and the private legal firms will pay top dollar. He will also have every lunatic in the country as his enemy for taking down the great white hope, Jack Smith, slayer of giants, republicans and maga dreams...

Yeah haw! Cheeto Jesus take the wheel and punch the peddle to the metal as they head for the cliff! The 14th will be quite a shock to them if he manages to win the GOP primaries. You cannot reason with people who don't deal in reality or accept facts, you must defeat them at the polls and jail them if they break the law. Remember they support the destruction of the US constitution and rule of law, the destruction of their own country, this is pathological behavior, harming themselves and others. The level of mental illness in the GOP is much higher than the national average I'll bet, and Donald is a magnet for the character flawed and weak minded.

This is not even to mention that Trump and many republicans have the stink of Russian influence all over themselves even today many republicans are siding with Putin in the Ukraine war and expect Russian help in the 24 elections. Trump's shit stain on the GOP should remain long after he is gone.

I think Joe has too much baggage. But who else? That is the problem.
Joe has ancient history that Trump wiped away.

If the republicans can and do nominate Trump, they will be left high and dry on the eve of the election by the 14th amendment, after Trump files the papers to run in the states. They will in effect concede the election because if Trump is their nominee he will be disqualified, and it would be too late to replace him as nominee much less get the new guy on the ballot. The opinion of legal scholars and judges makes it clear how the courts will rule on the general election, not so much the primary process because the nominee is not a public office, we will see.

Begun the maga wars have, may the farce be with them and the dark side. Going down Darth Donald is, but his power over the weak minded grows stronger!

Donald's greatest value is he keeps all the contenders for the crown out of the limelight and his lunatic fans rule the GOP and they must pander to the morons no matter how fucking crazy they get, or they get primaried.

He might have trouble keeping that hairstyle in jail or prison and when he is finally tried on TV in Georgia, he should be in federal custody and dressed in orange or whatever the color of the institution, Jack should have his ass nailed in DC by the time the Georgia TV trial gets underway with its multiple defendants and sprawling conspiracy.

His having engaged in rebellion needs to be rendered official, doesn’t it? Until then he is merely suspected/alleged to etc.

Seems to me that requires either a conviction or perhaps a statement by Scotus.

If I’m wrong, I’ll be grateful for contradictory established law.
It might not require a conviction. It's not spelled out in the amendment. The SCOTUS could rule that, because Trump participated in an act of rebellion, he's ineligible and he would be blocked. The wheels are already turning for this. Lawsuits have already been filed in several states that would be decided by judicial decisions, not a jury. Once a judge finds him ineligible, the ladder of appeals takes the case eventually to the Supreme Court.

Indeed. But I don’t think it is automatic, as some have suggested. A judge has to make a ruling.

Tripping, showing his age. How will he be in five years? Pretty sure it bothers many voters.

It is my understanding that once disqualified by a public official or that of an official being sued to keep Trump off the ballot the SCOTUS cannot put him back on, they can take him off though. Here is the rub, the constitution says that to be reinstated on the ballot, it takes 2/3s in both houses of congress.

Trump says he won’t attend first GOP presidential debate

Former President Trump confirmed Sunday that he will not attend the first Republican presidential debate next week and left open the possibility that he would skip future primary debates, citing his sizable lead in national polls as a primary reason.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump cited a CBS News poll released earlier Sunday that showed him leading the next closest candidate by 46 percentage points.

“The public knows who I am & what a successful Presidency I had, with Energy Independence, Strong Borders & Military, Biggest EVER Tax & Regulation Cuts, No Inflation, Strongest Economy in History, & much more,” Trump wrote. “I WILL THEREFORE NOT BE DOING THE DEBATES!”
Trump’s announcement, which capped months of speculation about whether he would participate, comes days after it was reported that the former president planned to sit for an interview with former Fox News host Tucker Carlson instead of attending Wednesday’s debate in Milwaukee.
The former president has for months indicated that he was likely to skip at least the first two primary debates, questioning in speeches at his rallies and in posts on social media why he would attend given his strong lead in the polls.

Trump also took issue with Fox News as the network airing the first debate, as well as former Washington Post publisher Fred Ryan’s connection to the Reagan Library in California, which is hosting the second debate. The second debate is set to be held on Sept. 27, hosted by Fox Business.
A key indicator that Trump didn’t intend to go to the first debate was his decision last week to not sign the loyalty pledge required by the Republican National Committee for any qualified candidate to promise to support the eventual GOP nominee. He said then that he would announce this week if he would go to the debate, adding that he had made his decision.

“I wouldn’t sign the pledge. Why would I sign a pledge if there are people on there that I wouldn’t have. I wouldn’t have certain people as somebody that I would endorse,” Trump told Newsmax.

He first suggested that he might skip the first two GOP debates in a Truth Social post in April.
“When you’re leading by seemingly insurmountable numbers, and you have hostile Networks with angry, TRUMP & MAGA hating anchors asking the ‘questions,’ why subject yourself to being libeled and abused?” he said at the time.

Trump more recently received a chorus of “no” responses when he asked those attending a rally in Erie, Pa., late last month if he should attend the debate. He again mentioned his large lead in the polls and that most of his competitors for the Republican nomination are currently in the low single digits.

Several of the other candidates in the GOP field previously called on Trump to attend the debate, including his closest opponent, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. He said last month that Trump needs to “step up and do it.”
Trump’s unwillingness to back the eventual nominee carries echoes of a 2015 GOP primary debate, when he was the lone candidate who would not commit to backing the eventual nominee. The former president later signed a pledge vowing to back whoever the party nominated.
