    excerpt:

    "Former President Donald Trump’s remarks about nuclear weapons during a Fox News town hall on Wednesday raised alarm from national security attorneys.

    Asked by Fox News host Laura Ingraham about fans who worry about his “safety,” Trump said, “I worry about their safety too.”

    “These people, everybody in this room is in great danger right now,” he said. “We have a nuclear weapon that if you hit New York, South Carolina is going to be gone too. I worry about their safety. I think it’s the reason I’m doing this.”

    National security attorneys questioned if Trump let slip some classified information with his answer.

    “Is Trump out there spilling the details on our nuclear weapons and the destructive range of those weapons in the midst of a Fox interview? Is it me or is he doing that?” asked national security lawyer Bradley Moss, questioning the media silence on “the former president potentially revealing classified information about our nuclear weapons arsenal on live TV.”"

    Before Giving Billions to Jared Kushner, Saudi Investment Fund Had Big Doubts (Published 2022)

    excerpt:

    "A panel that screens investments for the main Saudi sovereign wealth fund cited concerns about the proposed deal with Mr. Kushner’s newly formed private equity firm, Affinity Partners, previously undisclosed documents show.

    Those objections included: “the inexperience of the Affinity Fund management”; the possibility that the kingdom would be responsible for “the bulk of the investment and risk”; due diligence on the fledgling firm’s operations that found them “unsatisfactory in all aspects”; a proposed asset management fee that “seems excessive”; and “public relations risks” from Mr. Kushner’s prior role as a senior adviser to his father-in-law, former President Donald J. Trump, according to minutes of the panel’s meeting last June 30.

    But days later the full board of the $620 billion Public Investment Fund — led by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Saudi Arabia’s de facto ruler and a beneficiary of Mr. Kushner’s support when he worked as a White House adviser — overruled the panel.

    Ethics experts say that such a deal creates the appearance of potential payback for Mr. Kushner’s actions in the White House — or of a bid for future favor if Mr. Trump seeks and wins another presidential term in 2024."

    During the trial of Trump's first impeachment, defense attorney Dershowitz said Trump's extortion of the Ukraine president to assist Trump in his 2020 election campaign was innocuous and in the national interest because reelecting Trump was in the national interest.

    Donald Trump declaring bankruptcy would not save him — here's why

    excerpt:

    "Even if Trump declares bankruptcy to avoid paying, "he may not be able to discharge the liability against him in that process" because a court will not allow him to write off the full amount of the judgments.

    "Even if a bankruptcy court is willing to allow him to discharge some of that liability, he likely will have to sell some of his property in the process to satisfy the judgments against him," he said."

    Donald Trump GoFundMe skyrockets as gold sneakers sell out

    excerpt:

    "While the effort, which is said to violate GoFundMe's terms and conditions, may invite chuckles and snide remarks from some critics, after only a week, it has managed to rake in $952,930. Though that's only 0.002% of its $355 million goal, it is an impressive display of how far his MAGA base is willing to go to help get Trump back in the White House."

    A majority of the $8 million that Trump received as president was from China, the country he rails against.

    It's also the country the GOP has been claiming, without evidence, that Biden supposedly accepted money from indirectly through his son when he wasn't president or VP. That supposedly would have been grounds to impeach Biden now as president because he supposedly is compromised by something that happened (actually didn't happen) in 2017.

    Having only embarrassed themselves and Trump with the Biden impeachment inquiry, the GOP turned to impeaching the director of Homeland Security over the Mexican border situation. It's an election year stunt that will go nowhere.

    Sununu remarks about how prominent politicians in the U.S. come and go.


    ‘Assholes come and go’: Trump isn’t the future, Sununu says

    excerpt:

    “It won’t be his party forever. Right? It just won’t. At some point, Donald Trump won’t be here forever,” Sununu said during POLITICO’s Governors Summit.

    Sununu added that he remains “very optimistic” about America’s future.

    “Let me put it a different way: Assholes come and go. But America is here to stay,” he said.

    After they're gone, numerous others of the same type take their place.

    Trump is trying to have the documents case thrown out, citing presidential immunity.

    Trump says he deemed the documents to be his personal property while he was president.


    Trump argues presidential immunity in push for dismissal of classified documents case

    excerpt:

    "As a result of his immunity motion working its way through the appeals process, Trump managed to force the federal judge in Washington to cancel the scheduled 4 March trial date. Trump might now also be able to have his May trial date in Florida cancelled by repurposing the same tactic."

    Trump praised his rioters during incoherent speech that he tried to make sound religious.


    Exhausted Trump arrives late to deliver wild, incoherent speech to Christian audience

    excerpt:

    "Tripping over words his Christian audience might have expected him to master like “evangelical”, the Republican presidential front-runner declared that he had made “Israel” the capital of Israel during his presidency (presumably confusing the decision to move its US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem), that he planned to close down the Department of Education and praised the Capitol rioters for their “tremendous spirit”"

    Thursday was the deadline to file a motion.

    As usual, Trump waited until the last minute.
