The sting was an agent posed as a 13 year old in a text conversation.   Kiddy porn and stuff found on his phone.  The reason this is news is the following:

 

"President Donald Trump’s administration appointed him to an election integrity commission to investigate the president’s claim that millions voted illegally for Hillary Clinton in 2016"

 

 

Yet another Team TRUMP member that's indicted.  Only the best people.

Guess they have to get something done.  Their impeachment debacle was a dud.

Apparently the National Guard and NYPD aren't enough to stop the criminal scumbags in NYC.

 

I don't have the video hidden because the shots are at the end and you only hear them, not see them.  The part that you don't see is the Latino guy disarming the black guy and shooting him with his own gun at the end of the video.

So african american with a gun threatened and attacked a smaller latino man pulled a gun got the gun taken away and was shot with the same gun.  reports say that the "shooter" was apprehended immediately, with some reports saying he and his partner willingly turned themselves in when police entered the car.

 

Unsure how police or national guard are supposed to deal with this or are expected to be able to deal with this.  It's an open world and even supermax prisons can't keep weapons and violence out of their facilities.

 

Seems to me this racist individual who caused all the issues fucked around and found out to the extreme.

Searches for virtual private networking (VPN) software briefly spiked in Texas this week after Pornhub suspended service in the state over a law forcing adult websites to verify the age or identities of their users.

The four-fold rise in Google searches for tools that can circumvent the state-level blocking suggests the law may already be having unintended side effects, days after a federal appeals court upheld the legislation and said it could remain in effect.

I'm not blaming the NYPD or the National Guard.  Just criminal scumbags like I wrote in my post.  The only way they would have known that guy had a gun would have been to frisk him, and they aren't allowed to stop and frisk random people anymore.

 

NYC is a craphole.  Especially in the subway system.  Although the new court guidelines put in by Kathy Hochul cycling dangerous criminals in and out of the jails and courts isn't helping.

So Fani's lover officially resigns.  And now the case is most likely delayed until after the election.  I already said a month ago that the lovebirds were going to screw up the case.

 

Now Merrick Garland is concerned that all of Trump's cases will be delayed until after the election, even though he is responsible for some of the delays...

I'd just like to point out that although I'd prefer Trump to be found guilty before the election, so voters can know whether they're voting for a convicted felon or not, the Georgia Indictment does not have to get to trial before the election.....

 

Even if Trump wins the 2024 election, (and that's not the given that so many people seem to think, or hope it is) he can't have his DOJ quash this case. He can only do that for federal cases....

 

So, if Agent Orange wins a second term in November, Fani (or her successor) will be there waiting for him in 4 years.....unless of course, the fat bastard does the world a favor and dies before then....

Speaking of Republican assholes, former Trump aide Peter Navarro  is asking the Supreme Court for a get out of jail free card:

Peter Navarro is asking the Supreme Court to give him one last chance to stay out of jail.

The former Trump White House trade adviser is slated to report to federal prison in Miami next Tuesday to begin serving a four-month sentence for defying a subpoena from the Jan. 6 select committee, but is seeking to remain free while he appeals his convictions.

Navarro’s attorneys filed an emergency application Friday afternoon with Chief Justice John Roberts, who receives such appeals from the D.C. Circuit. Roberts is likely to refer the request to the full court for action.

 

 

There's a special place in jail for scumbags like Peter Navarro.....
