    Trump is appealing the sentencing hearing for his hush money criminal conviction that is scheduled to occur this Friday.

    His hope is to delay it into his second term in office where he could use the presidential immunity argument to delay it until after January 2029.

    Giorgia Meloni - Wikipedia

    excerpt:

    "Meloni is a Catholic and a conservative, and believes in defending "God, fatherland, and family". She is opposed to euthanasia, same-sex marriage, and same-sex parenting, saying that nuclear families are exclusively headed by male–female pairs. She is also a critic of globalism. Meloni supports a naval blockade to halt illegal immigration, and she has been accused of xenophobia and Islamophobia. A supporter of NATO, she maintains Eurosceptic views regarding the European Union which she describes as "Eurorealist". She was in favour of improved relations with Russia before the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, which she condemned, pledging to keep sending arms to Ukraine."

    It's unsettling and embarrassing when the dean of your law school is indicted in two states (GA and AZ) and is a co-conspirator in a federal criminal investigation that indicted Trump.

    Statement by Chapman University in June 2007 about its selection of Eastman to be the dean of its law school.

    Chapman had high hopes for Eastman in 2007.

    excerpt:

    "ORANGE, Calif. Dr. John C. Eastman of the Chapman University School of Law faculty, a well-known champion of Constitutional law and a frequent expert commentator on television and radio, has been chosen as the new dean of the Chapman law school and Donald P. Kennedy Chair in Law, stepping into the position left by retiring Dean Parham Williams. Dr. Eastman, formerly the Henry Salvatori Professor of Law and Community Service at Chapman, also has served for the past 10 months as the Interim Associate Dean for Administration in the law school."

    CU program that hosted John Eastman to teach about ‘woke’ threats to rule of law • Colorado Newsline

    excerpt:

    "A group of 11 House Democrats rose to object to electoral vote counts in a joint session of Congress ahead of Trump’s inauguration in 2017. No Democratic senator joined the effort, which was gaveled down repeatedly by then-Vice President Joe Biden, and which then-House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said was “not going to have an impact on the outcome.”

    Zywicki did not respond directly when asked if he believed those efforts were comparable to Trump’s alleged plot to remain in power following the 2020 election."

    What's more important. Trump and Eastman trying to steal a presidential election from the American people or Eastman's perceived threats of 'woke' in America.

    Eastman who was once a visiting professor at U. of Colorado claimed without evidence that widepread fraud occurred in the 2020 election that stole the election from Trump.

    Zywicki as a visiting scholar to U. of Colorado taught a course called 'Rule of Law' where he discusses what he says is the threat of 'woke ideology' and anti-capitalist sentiment.


    CU program that hosted John Eastman to teach about ‘woke’ threats to rule of law • Colorado Newsline

    excerpt:

    "Todd Zywicki, a professor at George Mason University’s Antonin Scalia Law School, was
    appointed in June as the program’s visiting scholar for the upcoming academic year. In the fall semester, he will teach a course on Austrian economist F.A. Hayek and another on the “Rule of Law.”

    As described on the center’s website, the latter course will “address threats to the rule of law, including ‘Woke’ ideology, the rise of anti-capitalist attitudes, crony capitalism, and intellectual attacks on concepts such as freedom of speech.”"

    Not yet Eric.

    We, as sane people have to hope that once this mind fuck passes into history that things will return to normal.

    Of course that means that democrats have to get their act back together and present some good leaders in the future.

    Clearly, just being on the right side of things isn’t enough.

    NY Appeals court denies Trump's request to stop Friday's sentencing.


    Appeals court denies Trump's bid to halt Friday's hush money sentencing

    excerpt:

    Prosecutors said there is no evidence "whatsoever" to back the claim that presidential immunity applies to Trump prior to his inauguration on Jan. 20.

    "The claim is so baseless that there is no support for an automatic stay here," said Steven Wu of the Manhattan district attorney's office. "There is a compelling public interest in seeing this process come to an end."

    The conviction of Trump in NY on 34 felonies was for actions that occurred before he was even president.

    Yet Trump has been trying to halt the sentencing hearing again based on what he says is presidential immunity.

    Trump Jr. visits Greenland and Danish king changes royal coat of arms amid feud over Arctic territory

    excerpt:

    "Greenland, the world’s largest island, sits between the Atlantic Ocean and the Arctic Ocean, and is closer to New York than it is to Copenhagen. It has been under Denmark’s control since the 14th century but became a self-governing territory in 1979.

    It is also home to a large U.S. Air Force base and major mineral reserves, catching the eye of Trump, who expressed a desire to buy the island during his first term in office."

    Prospect of price hike in 2025.


    Consumers could face price rises of 20% in 2025, trade experts warn

    excerpt:

    "The price of household staples including food and drink could climb by as much as 20% in 2025 if challenges with sourcing and transporting goods continue, an industry body has warned.

    The cost of electronics, machinery, chemicals and petroleum products could also rise, said the Chartered Institute of Procurement and Supply (CIPS), as a result of geopolitical instability, including tensions in the Middle East, supply chain disruption and cybersecurity issues."

    Not to worry.

    Trump will fix it with more tariffs and maybe a bit of Hannibal Lecter.

    Although Trump is like the clown at the circus who gets the ball rolling politically and wins elections, un-elected ultra-billionaires like Musk have used the opportunity to worm their way into a presidential administration and can wield great oligarchy power.

    Trump has upgraded from 'minister of everything' Jared Kushner in his first term to Elon Musk in his second. In hindsight, it makes Kushner seem very low-level and innocuous.


    Musk plays politics abroad as world leaders brace for Trump’s return

    excerpt:

    "Musk could easily be dismissed as a mischievous antagonist who simply loves to shock and is pursuing his own obsessions one X post at a time.

    But he’s not just some troll. He’s the world’s richest man, owns some of the globe’s most strategic and influential businesses, and is wielding a mighty social media network. Musk is highlighting his enormous influence as a populist force galvanizing political provocateurs as a kind of one-man supranational non-state power."

    Trump says the Gulf of Mexico should be renamed the Gulf of America.
