There are a lot of indictments and perhaps convictions before the primaries and Donald will probably be in jail and even if he is not, he should be barking mad for sure by then.
TRUMP CONVICTED

Donald will hold one final rally before Jack indicts him and have his base drink poisoned laced Kool-Aid like jones town, except Donald and his advisors will skip the free drinks. Even though he poisoned thousands at his rally, the FBI would still have to prove intent, and they would still vote for him if he was the party's nominee, Heil Hitler!

That's what appeals courts are for, besides Gym is hurting the entire NY GOP delegation as much as George Santos, he has a harmless clown show that is doing damage to the republicans nationally and proving the democrat's point. We will see where Gym stands as the indictments roll in, he can stay in DC for the federal ones and try and get Jack on the stand, he won't get Jack shit. All this is supposedly to win the election in 24, well 24 is a lot of indictments and a long way off. Gym is gonna continue to get bad news and perhaps be indicted himself over J6 before election day. So the next hearings will be about the Top Secret documents and obstruction of justice indictments and Gym is gonna try to stick his nose into that! What are these clowns gonna do when Donald is just down the road in a DC jail after a federal judge sticks him there until trial? Perhaps Gym will haul in the judge who dared jail Trump for talking out his ass and violating a court order. Visiting day at the DC jail will be a busy affair with republicans lined up outside waiting for an audience with the great white hope. Of course, Kevin will move to the top of the visitor line when he shows up for instructions.

The only qualification is to be a sleazebag and to be corruptible, or already corrupt. With Trump they were more perquisites than qualifications. Donald has a nose for character flaws and can spot them instinctively.

Appeals court temporarily blocks House subpoena for ex-Manhattan prosecutor in Trump probe
The former Manhattan prosecutor Mark Pomerantz was involved in a criminal investigation of ex-President Donald Trump.
Appeals court temporarily blocks House subpoena for ex-Manhattan prosecutor in Trump probe
KEY POINTS
- A federal appeals court temporarily blocked a subpoena issued by the House Judiciary Committee for testimony from former Manhattan prosecutor Mark Pomerantz.
- Pomerantz was involved in a criminal investigation of ex-President Donald Trump. Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg is prosecuting Trump on charges of falsifying business records.
- Trump has pleaded not guilty to the charges, which relate to hush money payments made before the 2016 election to two women who allege they had affairs with Trump.
A federal appeals court on Thursday temporarily blocked a House Judiciary Committee subpoena for testimony from a former Manhattan prosecutor who was involved in a criminal investigation of ex-President Donald Trump.
The order by the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals in New York came just hours before the former prosecutor, Mark Pomerantz, had been directed by a federal judge to sit for a deposition with the committee.
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office is heading an unprecedented criminal case against Trump, the Republican former president and current leading presidential candidate, on charges of falsifying business records. Trump has pleaded not guilty to the charges, which relate to hush money payments made before the 2016 election to two women who allege they had affairs with Trump.
The Republican-majority House Judiciary Committee, led by Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio, launched an investigation into Bragg’s case, saying it was looking into whether the prosecution was politically motivated.
The committee subpoenaed Pomerantz, who had resigned from the DA’s office a few months after Bragg took charge in January 2022. Pomerantz had been working on the office’s investigations of Trump under Bragg’s predecessor, Cyrus Vance Jr. In a resignation letter, Pomerantz said there was “no doubt” that Trump committed crimes and questioned Bragg’s apparent decision at the time to pause the probes into Trump.
In response to the subpoena to Pomerantz, Bragg sued the Judiciary Committee to try to block the former prosecutor from testifying. Bragg’s civil suit argued that the congressional panel had “no power to supervise state criminal prosecutions.”
U.S. District Judge Mary Kay Vyskocil, a Trump nominee, on Wednesday denied Bragg’s effort to invalidate the subpoena for Pomerantz.
“The subpoena was issued with a ‘valid legislative purpose’ in connection with the ‘broad’ and ‘indispensable’ congressional power to ‘conduct investigations,’” Vyskocil wrote in federal court in Manhattan.
“Mr. Pomerantz must appear for the congressional deposition. No one is above the law,” the judge wrote.
Her ruling, which came after a hearing Monday, was contemptuous of Bragg’s lawsuit. “The first 35 pages of the Complaint have little to do with the subpoena at issue and are nothing short of a public relations tirade against former President and current presidential candidate Donald Trump,” she wrote.
Jordan had argued that his committee has the right to probe Bragg’s work because the D.A.’s office receives some federal funds.
Pomerantz had also asked Vyskocil to block the subpoena, saying in a filing that it puts him in an “impossible position.”
″If I refuse to provide information to the Committee, I risk being held in contempt of Congress and referred to the Department of Justice for possible criminal prosecution. If, on the other hand, I defy the District Attorney’s instructions and answer questions, I face possible legal or ethical consequences, including criminal prosecution,” Pomerantz wrote.
Bragg and Pomerantz both appealed Vyskocil’s ruling. On Thursday morning, the appeals court granted their request for a brief stay in order to give a three-judge panel time to consider whether to continue to block the subpoena for longer pending the appeal.
The circuit court gave Jordan’s committee until Friday at 3 p.m. ET to reply.

When it favors MAGA, they maintain state's rights. When overriding states rights is favorable to MAGA, they rule that way. Can't have it both ways, fascists. I'm guessing Vyskocil will be repudiated. The only "legislative purpose" Jordan has cited is to oversee federal funds that the NY Supreme Court receives from the government. Bragg's case is explained in the link below:
Congressional Investigation of the Trump Indictment
Ironically (or perhaps hypocritically), Jordan lost his case and was charged with contempt of congress when he failed to appear following the direction of the Supreme Court to appear.

Like George Santos, this is only hurting the republican party nationally and especially in NY. Likewise, with the out-of-control republican state houses passing truly insane laws, doubling down in the face of opposing public polling. Abortion, education, gay and LBGTQ issues, guns and election laws are not helping them nationally and some republicans in congress are despairing because they are from close districts and the radicals are killing their chances. Most of this shit is not even popular in their own states FFS with majorities on the other side of issues. Maybe they don't fear a majority of the voters, because they will end up with a majority of the seats anyway thanks to gerrymandering. Not all republicans are as secure as MTG however, but they are sitting by as the radicals cut their throats with the debt ceiling. You would think a dozen or two of them would break ranks, but they would be primaried, the party is filled with lunatics today and they run the nuthouse it has become.Another Trump appointee.

I don't think she will be a judge Canon, the rulings were not too radical, just a bit, or the appeals court would have struck it down. We will see about this one, I don't think she can help Trump that much, Pomerantz would be hostile to Gym Jordan and knows it's all bullshit, even if Gym gets him to testify, this guy can run circles around Gym coach Jordan and it might be unpleasant for Gym when Mark speaks in congress, he should be careful of what he wishes for, he may get it.
