Ijebos. Now that you may probably be based in DC, I happened to read about the Trump hotel in DC.
He took an annual $3.1m lease in 2013 long before he became president - they said it would be a conflict. Actually Raskin committee said the hotel was paid $8m by foreign govts.
Politics aside, looks like Trump spent $200m to turn the building into a hotel (Ivanka headed the project) , made $70m in loses while he was President. Then sold it at $375m to Waldorf Astoria.
You may be probably taking your dates there for fine red wines and fillet mignon. Say your silent thanks to Ivanka and Trump org for the adulation you receive from your dates.
I've got a PhD friend who works for the Rockefeller Foundation in DC. She says it's a pretty expensive place to live in and spends quite a lot of time working remotely.

Fani Willis and her lover Nathan Wade.
Both filed dictionary sized affidavits in court saying their romance started after Wade's appointment as Trump's inquisitor.
Bombshell. Wade's law partner is ready to testify in person that they had begun the affair before she became Fulton DA. He has first hand evidence they also cohabited.
There is also evidence that a large amount of her campaign contributions came from fraudulent dark money. Supposed donors had identities stolen and used to donate to her campaign.
Fani Willis also refused to accept a subpoena from Jim Jordan oversight committee. He had the US Marshalls waste federal funds to personally serve her. This subpoena is in regards to her potential misuse of federal grants. A whistleblower questioned her diversion of $484K of federal funds to another cause. Fani Willis fired her
While this back and forth is going It would be interesting to find out if the divorce lawyer Nathan Wade is still billing Fulton $250 an hour with Fani approving payments.

This Fanny thing and her lover might end up in the jails she so wished for Trump. Lying to s court ? Will be juicy to see them on live TV being questioned under oath on Feb 15 hopefully

Where are all those who said Trump Georgia case was the strongest?

DO YOU KNOW SHE HAS ACCUSED AT LEAST 5 PEOPLE OF RAPE?
Yes She has accused others. Was a good thing Trump won. His tribulations have exposed the corruption an greed of

He should go out there and campaign about this. Draw parallels to what he is now facing and what trump and others are facing too.

coolIs jack Smith crazy enough to charge Trump with insurrection?

Jack Smith requested Judge Cannon in the Florida case this week to keep some documents sealed. Supposedly Trump defence should not have the documents unredacted because of another ongoing investigation.
( It's said there exists an ongoing Jan 6 investigation by the Chris Wray led Gestapo)

In those Colorado type cases, the Supreme court asked if anyone had been charged with insurrection.None. judge Clarence mentioned that it's Congress to deal with eligibility of a candidate under the Act. I think he is preemptively challenging any new indictment by Jackboot regarding insurrection, which states will then use to remove Trump from the ballot.

Democrat insiders say it is now 'panic time' after a blockbuster Justice Department report concluded Joe Biden has 'diminished faculties' and is an 'elderly man with a poor memory'.

Increasingly, behind the scenes, a nuclear option is being considered to remove the 81-year-old president as the Democrat nominee at the party's convention in Chicago in August.

The leading candidates to replace him include California Governor Gavin Newsom and Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer.

'I think it is now panic time. Biden should not be our standard bearer,' a former senior Democrat White House official, who worked with Biden, told Dailymail.com.

'He looked like a deer stuck in the headlights last night
. There isn't enough gas in the tank for another four and-a-half years. Ultimately we're going to see more and more prominent Democrats saying the quiet part out loud.

'It's increasingly clear we have a deeply flawed candidate. Democracy is in the balance and this is not a smart path for our party.'



Who would know the difference if they replaced Joe Biden with a wax like statue of him?

As an aside, Congress then under RINO Paul Ryan denied funding for border wall. Trump diverted military funds for construction, the left went to court and stopped the funding .Joe Biden stopped the construction day one, sold the construction materials as scrap...and proposed amnesty for illegal aliens.He went to court to stop Texas razor wire installations along River grande.
This is not a Joe Biden plan. Same thing happens in Western Europe. George Soros is one the biggest proponents of open borders where people are stateless and can walk in to any nation freely. EU an example of free movement of people and goods that will morph into centralized leadership off Brussels to the public one day.

Biden read aloud top secret documents to his ghostwriter in recorded audio sessions.
The ghostwriter deleted the audio once he knew there was a document investigation of Joe Biden. The ghostwriter coperated fully with Hurr and he is now to be charged .

On Mar a Lago Trump is charged for asking his valet or someone whether they could delete cctv recordings. Trump, his valet and IT guy were indicted for having a conversation where deleting cctv footage was discussed. The footage was never deleted, all was handed over to Jackboot.

Two shades of justice. If Joe Biden is senile and cannot comprehend what he is to be charged with, then his ghostwriter should be charged for deleting evidence of classified doc obstruction.
The Justice Department defended not bringing charges against Biden because he’s a “sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.”

Joe Biden report highlights

It establishes that Biden willfully retained classified documents at his Delaware home.

It found that Biden was on tape admitting his possession of classified documents, which he unlawfully shared with his ghostwriter.

It exposes Biden’s lies surrounding his possession of the documents.

And it found the destruction of evidence by Biden’s ghostwriter.

Robert Hurr found him mentally incompetent. He could not remember the year he became VP, the year he left VP and Alo the year his son died.
Indicting him at this time, the jury will view him as a genial elderly man with memory problems. No indictment deapite stealing top secret documents all those years and most likely selling them.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Rep. Deb Haaland (D-N.M.) shook off defamation claims by a group of Catholic high school students from Kentucky over tweets related to a January 2019 incident on the National Mall, after the Sixth Circuit held they are immune from the lawsuit.

The legislators are immune from suit as federal employees under an amendment to the Federal Tort Claims Act, because they were acting within the scope of their employment when they sent the allegedly defamatory tweets, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit said Thursday.

The text of Hamas' proposal for a deal with Israel

The Lebanese Al-Akhbar newspaper, which is often used as a mouthpiece promoting the interests of Hamas and Hezbollah, published this morning the text of Hamas' deal proposal, as provided to the mediators.

The main points of the proposal in brief:
:

1. The cessation of military activity in preparation for the complete cessation and the withdrawal of IDF forces to the surrounding areas.
2. Hudna of 135 days in three stages of 45 days each during which all the Israeli abductees and the bodies of the Israelis in the Gaza Strip will be released in exchange for the Palestinian prisoners and bodies held by Israel.
3. Preventing Jews from entering the Temple Mount and returning the situation on the Mount to what it was before 2002.
4. The restoration of the Gaza Strip and international guarantees.


And now for the details according to the three stages:

The first stage (45 days) -

Hamas requirements and conditions for this stage:


1. A complete (and mutual) cessation of military activity in the Strip, including air activity.

2. Withdrawal of IDF forces from the inhabited areas in the Gaza Strip to the border line (with Israel, as it was on October 6th -AA).


3. The release of all Israeli abductees under the age of 19 (who are not soldiers), as well as the elderly and the sick whose names were previously agreed upon (referring to the hudna agreement of the month of November -AA) in exchange for the release of all the Palestinian prisoners imprisoned in Israel who are younger than 19 or older than 50, as well as the sick among them, in addition to 1,500 Palestinian prisoners named by Hamas, of which 500 are serving life sentences.

4. Completing the necessary steps to ensure that the prisoners who were released for the offenses for which they were imprisoned are not re-arrested.

5. Improving the conditions of the remaining Palestinian prisoners in Israeli prisons and removing the restrictions imposed on them since October 7.

6. Preventing Jews from entering Al-Aqsa (the entire Temple Mount square) and restoring the situation to what it was before 2002.

7. The introduction of a minimum of 500 aid trucks per day into the Strip, including fuel.

8. The return of all the displaced people to their homes all over the Strip without movement restrictions.


9. The opening of all Gaza crossings for the movement of people and goods without restrictions, including the departure of men, women and children for treatment outside the Gaza Strip without any restrictions.

10. Supply of heavy engineering equipment for clearing rubble, equipment for civil defense and equipment for the Ministry of Health.

11. The rehabilitation of the hospitals and bakeries in the entire strip.

12. Brining in of all the equipment needed to set up residential camps, including: 60 thousand temporary residential buildings (trailers and containers) at a rate of 15 thousand per week.
The introduction of 200,000 tents at a rate of 50,000 per week.


13. The beginning of infrastructure restoration all over the Strip, including water, electricity and communication infrastructures.

14. Approval of a comprehensive plan for the rehabilitation of all the residential buildings, commercial buildings and public buildings that were destroyed as a result of the fighting within a practical schedule of three years.

15. Renewal of all the humanitarian aid provided to the residents of the Gaza Strip and especially the functioning of UNRWA - as it was before October 7.

16. Supplying the diesel needed to operate the power plant in Gaza and needed for all sectors in the Gaza Strip.

17. Israel must be forced to meet the needs of the Gaza Strip in the area of electricity and water.


18. The beginning of the indirect talks to reach a complete calm agreement.

The exchange of prisoners will be closely related to the degree of implementation of the aid income.

Egypt, Turkey, Qatar, Russia and the United Nations will guarantee the implementation of this agreement.

These are Hamas' demands for the first stage
.
Foolish leaders like Blinken will pore through every wording of the deal.
The most important word from the deal is hudna.

The “hudna” that Muslims make with non-Muslims can never be more than temporary, and is entered into only because the Muslim side feels it is too weak to conduct open warfare, and would benefit from a respite from open hostilities. Alternatively, a Muslim polity may enter into a hudna with non-Muslims if it has a reasonable expectation that those non-Muslims will soon adopt Islam.

If the hudna is undertaken in order to give the Muslims time to gather their strength, then the Muslim side is then not merely allowed, but required, whenever it feels strong enough, to re-engage in open hostilities. And of course all during the period of the “hudna” it may conduct whatever operations not involving combat that it is capable of, including economic boycotts, diplomatic offensives, and suchlike — which is exactly what all Muslim states do engage in to weaken Israel, whether or not they are still in an official state of war......


It's Hamas request for a ceasefire to allow them to stock up
After 145 days they resume hostility.
The hudna can be broken any time all the same when Hamas feels strong enough or when Israel is weak enough to not do anything when Hamas fires rockets.
This is no ceasefire deal.

Why not. It could be argued he ordered the murder of America citizens.
European courts have indicted dictators and other leaders. A European court could indict Obama for knowingly arming ISIS. A local court would also include obstruction of justice for firing Michael Flynn after he said Obama was arming serious jihadists. Obama also has war crimes , forcible displacement of population in Libya, Syria and Iraqi Yazidis.

This evening, we are publishing some of the intelligence information found there by our forces – indicating a direct “connection” from Iran to Hamas and more so – to Yahya Sinwar. We found official Hamas documents from 2020 detailing the funds transferred by Iran between the years 2014 and 2020 to Hamas and to Sinwar. More than one hundred and fifty million dollars were transferred from Iran to Hamas. This is another example of how Iran exports terror across the Middle East.

This mickey mouse DA Alvin Bragg effort to prosecute vax deniers brought to a screeching halt. In his mind they must be Trump supporters.
The defendants must have spent a lot of money paying laywers in a frivolous case brought by a DA who is also using an archaic law to target Drumph.

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg attempted to charge two New York residents with felonies for having false vaccine passports while he has let off others charged with far worse crimes scot-free.

New York State Supreme Court Justice Brendan T. Lantry dismissed the felony charges against the rdecisionesidents, identified as J.O. and R.V. in the , who had bought the forged vax passports, usurping Bragg's decision.
judge wrote in the opinion, "Clearly, Criminal Possession of a Forged Instrument in the Second Degree (Penal Law § 170.25) is not among the most serious crimes in the New York Penal Law, nor are the factual allegations against Defendants R.V. and J.O. particularly serious in nature."

"Moreover, the factual allegations — that the Defendants purchased fake COVID-19 vaccination cards so that they could provide same to their employer (R.V.) and school (J.O.) — do not rise to the level of the majority of the crimes adjudicated in Supreme Court, New York County, namely homicide, sexual assault, drug sale, robbery, burglary, and other violent and non-violent serious felony offenses," Lantry continued.
