I hope if anyone is named in Trump's report, that measures are swiftly taken to protect them, as you can guarantee some MAGA will go after them.

And we didn't have long to wait as Trump has now been indicted for a fourth time: https://apnews.com/article/trump-georgia-election-investigation-grand-jury-willis-d39562cedfc60d64948708de1b011ed3

A court in Georgia appears to have accidentally leaked a list of charges against Trump on their web site...

If an ordinary citizen had Abbott's body count, they'd be on trial for serial murder.

At least it's easy to cure using antibiotics these days, and WHO provides them for free.

This could have gone in the Twitter thread, I guess, but Twitter had to turn over all Trump's stuff to federal prosecutors, and was fined $350,000 because they delayed turning it over. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/aug/09/twitter-fined-contempt-trump-case It will be interesting to see...

They keep electing Ted Cruz and it looks like he'll win the next election too, despite famously fleeing the country when Texas had a major power outage during a massive winter storm. At this point I assume Texas is just outta luck for having sane people in charge.

The prosecution has filed for a protective order, specifically citing that truth social post. The deadline for Trump's team to respond was set to 5pm Monday - Trump's team tried to ask for a delay, but were denied. Trump has responded with another tirade on social media attacking the judge and...

Unsurprising as the GOP didn't even field a candidate there. Maybe they figured it would just increase their embarrassment if they also had a candidate fail miserably.

Why was engineering deserted during that bit anyway? Do they not need a bunch of people there working to make sure the warp core doesn't fall out or something?

I thought during one of the other cases he did, and was given a stern warning not to do it again, but I can't find any news stories saying so, so I am probably misremembering.

https://www.cnbc.com/2023/08/03/-donald-trump-arraignment-live-updates.html I presume that means he'd be held in custody until the trial, though I'm not holding my breath. He's already fundraising off the whole thing, of course.

Trump unsurprisingly plead not guilty at his first appearance and has been released on bond. Next appearance is August 28. One of the conditions of bond is him not discussing the case with anyone other than through attorneys. 99% chance he blows that by posting about it on social media in the...

To answer my own question, according to the Guardian's coverage: Also the assigned judge is an Obama appointee, Tanya S Chutkan, who's delivered some harsher than requested sentences to Jan 6 defendants.

So is he now barred from running?

And the X sign is now an ex-sign.

https://sf.gov/information/sign-rules-commercial-and-industrial-districts I am pretty sure that counts as a roof sign and is not in any way vintage or historic. Twitter HQ is not, as far as I can tell, in a special district for sign illumination.

That's partly why I think most of the Twitter-alikes are poorly named. What do I say I'm doing if I'm posting on Mastodon? I'm Mastodoning? Mastocating? Mastoba- anyway!

I am amused that when they talk about scrolling the wiki, the screenshot they show isn't even of the main Fandom Transformers wiki, and is instead the Fandom Transformers Movie wiki. Possibly because the ROTB article on that one is longer. Because they copy/pasted the trivia section from...

If he fled to the UAE or Saudi Arabia, what's the likelihood they'd turn him over? According to Google, neither country has an extradition treaty with the US...
