I thought it would be good to have a separate threat for the legal activities related to TFG this week so the weekly thread can discuss what else is happening this week? I suspect the power brokers are going to attempt to slide a whole bunch of shit through while everyone is distracted.

I do not understand why he is being allowed to go back to Florida when the governor has flat out said he won't help NYS get him back

*snip* sanctuary states for heathens Some of us heathens (in the religious sense) may actually need sanctuary states if parts of the GQP get their way. Mostly TIC. Mostly.

I know because of the who and the 24 hour news cycle, this kind of coverage was inevitable, but I don't care. Just tell me what the charges are when he's charged and let's move onto the next part. This guy has been shady for decades. Time for consequences. This isn't directed at anyone here, more the abovementioned 24 hour news cycle.

I'll be honest, I watched every second of the coverage of his plane leaving on January 20, 2021 because I wanted to savor the moment he left here never (God willing) to return

(Not directly indictment related but I figured it's easiest to keep all recent news #45 related in one spot.)

Have they ruled on it being televised yet? I think the fact he insisted on zoom but suddenly doesn’t want the circus lacks any real credibility.

This is the first time I've seen that all 34 charges are felonies?!

I'm happy for Scott that he has a beat that led to national attention bc he's a great reporter. NBC has pulled some truly fantastic reporters out of our local market and I'm genuinely so happy for them.

How do the felonies work with voting? I see in Florida a person can vote with a felony charge if they’ve served the sentence (paid fine, service, etc). If DT is charged and found guilty in NY does that affect his voting?
People backing a candidate who can’t even vote for themselves because of crimes is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard.

I happen to be in NYC with my H and kid for spring break. My H keeps telling the kid that I planned this trip to be here when DT gets in trouble.
I’m not even trying to pretend otherwise.
