Now: Trump's head slowly dropped, his eyes closed. It jerked back upward. He adjusts himself. Then, his head droops again. He straightens up, leaning back. His head doops for a third time, he shakes his shoulders. Eyes closed still. His head drops. Finally, he pops his eyes open.

Sleepy Don.

The problem for Johnson is, once that motion gets called it’s going to be very difficult for the wing nuts to vote to save him because their base in those districts have been so radicalized by MAGA media that they will get serious blowback back home. Not having to vote helps them

Another juror now says: 'Obviously I know about Trump bc I'm a female, and he has targeted females' she says. Says that she has heard 'he doesn't treat females correctly, stuff like that.'

Obviously she won’t be on the jury. It is nice though that Trump is getting to hear what the majority of Americans think about him instead of just the people he surrounds himself with 24/7 who worship him.

Serious question for all the Fox & Newsmax hosts and producers who follow me. When you bring on guest after guest to repeat obvious lies - like the judge supposedly saying Trump can’t attend a graduation, do you ever feel a little slimy when you just sit there and say nothing?

Now you see why Trump didn’t make it into the Oval Office until noon everyday. WH staff covered by calling it ‘executive time’. In reality it is called addiction & dysfunction. Trump is NOT fit to serve. Vote Blue.

Elena Kagan is having none of Jeffrey Green's argument about Fischer on fluidity.

Soto: We've never had a situation like this where people try to violently stop a proceeding.

Green raises the empty courthouses in Portland.

Breaking: A second House Republican, Rep. Thomas Massie, says he told Mike Johnson that he'll co-sponsor Marjorie Taylor Greene's attempt to oust him from the speakership.

This means Johnson will almost certainly need Democratic votes to remain speaker.

In a filing just made public, the DA's office is asking Judge Merchan to hold Trump in contempt and fine him $3,000 for three social posts violating his gag order.

Mike Johnson's team briefed high-profile right-wing influencers on his restrictive voting bill well in advance of its announcement — in what appears to be a coordinated social media campaign meant to drum up support for the legislation, which is dead on arrival on the Senate.…

The judge said he wouldn’t rule on the graduation yet.

The judge said they would take both the first 2 days and the last 2 days of Passover off.

The judge is taking every Wednesday off.

No other defendant in the country would get coddled like this.

And they’re still crying.

The Trump campaign is bringing up the Passover issue because they believe that Orthodox Jews in NYC are mostly Trump supporters so they want some on the jury. That was on right wing social media yesterday.

I’ve heard her explain it many times. You aren’t going to like the explanation.

But Trump, like a petulant child who has never been told no and always gets things however he wants, stomps his feet and demands that he promise that now over a month out.

Reading between the lines, what Merchan was saying is if you stop violating the gag order, behave yourself in the courtroom, stop filing frivolous motions, mark exhibits as ordered, don’t constantly make excuses to delay, & show up on time, I’ll consider your graduation request.
