    Those remarks by Trump make Ethel Merman singing 'Everything's Coming Up Roses' in the insane asylum seem normal.

    The doozy in Trump's MI speech was his telling everyone to vote on November 27, 2024.

    Trump says he magically transformed Pentagon war plans into personal documents. He wants his criminal case dismissed.


    Trump Says He Magically Transformed Classified War Plans Into Personal Records, Demands Dismissal Of Docs Case - Above the Law

    excerpt:

    "Both pleadings work from the premise that Trump somehow transformed dozens of top secret and classified documents into personal records before stuffing them in his luggage and stomping off to Florida. But there’s no reference to exactly when or how such a transubstantiation occurred. In fact, Trump’s lawyers give that whole process a very wide berth, suggesting that “The Court should hold a hearing to resolve any factual disputes relating to the official nature of President Trump’s PRA designation and the removal of his personal records from the White House.”"

    Ethics panel calls for felony charges against Trump fundraising committee.


    Wisconsin ethics panel recommends felony charges against Trump committee, lawmaker

    excerpt:

    "MADISON, Wis. (AP) — The Wisconsin Ethics Commission has recommended that state prosecutors file felony charges against a fundraising committee for former President Donald Trump and a Republican state lawmaker related to an effort to unseat Assembly Speaker Robin Vos.

    The ethics commission on Tuesday referred the alleged violations to several county prosecutors, based on documents the commission provided Friday.

    The commission alleges that Trump’s fundraising committee and state Rep. Janel Brandtjen, a Trump ally, conspired in a scheme to evade campaign finance laws to support the Republican primary challenger to Vos in 2022."

    Trump at a police union event would be interesting.

    Like he has done at his rallies, Trump could open the event by playing his J6 prisoner tune, Justice For All, where his rioters in prison sing the National Anthem while he is heard reciting the Pledge of Allegiance. All that while sitting in a room with the police union endorsing him.

    For better effect, he can have a large video screen behind him showing his rioters beating the police officers at the Capitol and an image of Officer Sicknick who died the next day, plus four other police officers who committed suicide in the aftermath.

    Even Hugh Hewitt didn't believe Trump's remarks about gas prices.


    PolitiFact - No, gas did not cost $1.86 a gallon when Donald Trump left the White House

    excerpt:

    Trump: "Energy prices — we were energy independent, and now we’re going begging, ‘OPEC please send us oil, we have no oil, please send us oil.’ California just hit $7, $7.75 in certain areas of California. Can you believe it?"

    Hewitt: "I can’t."

    Trump: "It was $1.86 when I left."

    PolitiFact - No, gas did not cost $1.86 a gallon when Donald Trump left the White House

    excerpt:

    "However, Trump is wrong that the price per gallon "was $1.86 when I left" the White House. (Trump’s office did not respond to an inquiry for this article.)

    We turned to the price data collected by the federal Energy Information Administration. The national average price of a gallon of gasoline for the week of Jan. 18, 2021, was $2.38, or about 28% higher than what Trump said it was."

    Trump was stilling making claims of gas being as high as $8 a gallon in January 2024.


    Donald Trump brutally fact-checked over gas price remarks

    excerpt"

    "Trump said that when he was in the White House "you had gasoline selling for less than $2 and now you have it at $5, $6, $7 and even $8 a gallon." He added that "by contrast, under the Trump leadership, my leadership, inflation was nonexistent, and we had gasoline down to $1.87 a gallon.""

    Cavuto of Fox cut away from Trump's speech.

    Fox has been careful not to embroil itself in more defamation lawsuits after Trump and Tucker Carlson caused a $1.5 billion defamation suit by Dominion against Fox.

    Fox lost and paid Dominion about $787 million and agreed to fire Tucker Carlson (who recently interviewed his idol Putin).


    Fox News cuts into footage of Trump's speech in South Carolina to point out inaccuracies

    excerpt:

    "Making mention of the fact that the market is indeed going up, but that it has nothing to do with Trump, Cavuto went on to shoot down his claim that gas prices are at $6 a gallon, sourcing the real price as being an average of $3.26 a gallon."

    Ex-Mueller prosecutor thinks Judge Cannon set a “blocker” to limit when other cases can go to trial

    excerpt:

    "I have a cynical take on the trial date, which is I think Judge Cannon was trying to use it as a blocker, meaning that it was sitting there and it was a day that she had said to put restrictions on where other people could move," said Weissmann, who served on special counsel Bob Mueller’s team.

    "What I find interesting is that it is so obvious that everyone is like 'There is no way that that is happening!' and I think as Judge Chutkan, and the New York judge, are like ‘we are not even going to take it seriously because it is so obvious,’” he said.

    “She was trying to use it as a blocker,” Weissmann added, but “everyone in the system knows that is not happening.”

    A judge gave Trump 30 days to pay the $454 million civil fraud judgment. He'll owe an additional $112,000 in interest each day he doesn't.

    excerpt:

    "Judge Arthur Engoron, overseeing the former president's civil fraud trial, finalized his judgment in the case Friday evening, per court records — meaning Trump now has 30 days to fork over the $454 million in fines or secure a bond for the total amount, the Associated Press reported.

    The amount includes a $354 million penalty plus nearly $100 million in pre-judgment interest.

    A spokesperson for Attorney General Letitia James confirmed to the AP that Trump will begin accruing interest of $111,984 per day.

    Per the AP, this interest amount considers both the penalty and the pre-judgment interest — not just the penalty — meaning Trump will owe more interest than the $87,502 per day previously thought.

    On Thursday, Engoron rejected Trump's lawyers' attempts to delay the start of the penalty."
