Sorry to hijack here because this is an important twist in the ongoing saga but this type thread is super frustrating to many here. I have twitter but I am currently on the pc in the pole barn which is 25 years old and runs XP. XP isnt supported by Google any longer and twitter posts wont load. Many here arent on twitter at all. So we can not see the sauce. I could but would have to search through my phone to find it (I will).
Many contributors here will post the tweets contents in the body of the thread. Is there any way we can make that SOP?
On Monday, Trump's lawyers filed a pre-motion letter requesting that the conviction be set aside and the sentencing delayed in light of the Supreme Court's decision, arguing that even though Trump's crimes occurred before he assumed the presidency, some of the evidence used should have been redacted. Merchan ruled against a similar motion in April on the grounds that it was "untimely."
With sentencing delayed by at least two months, the lawyers will have ample time to argue that Merchan should not have dismissed the first motion and that the evidence from Trump's time in the White House should not have been introduced. Prosecutors did not oppose the delay, writing to Merchan that "although we believe defendant’s arguments to be without merit, we do not oppose his request for leave to file and his putative request to adjourn sentencing pending determination of his motion."
There is no reason you should ever be connecting a XP machine to the internet. A new machine on craigslist or FB Marketplace can be had for stupid cheap.
We have 6 computers in the house. I am not in the house. I am in my office in the pole barn. The pole barn is dusty dirty. It is where the kids on my crew cut rebar and wire mesh, cut wood stakes out of 1 by 4. It is where my wood shop and metal shop are. It is where I build furniture, sand it and finish it. It is where I do metal fabrication and welding. It is where my equipment is powerwashed and painted at the end of the year. It is where I do all the maintenence for the farm equipment and my companies equipment. It is where my wifes farm animals find refuge from the storms. It is not a place you put new electronic equipment.
Also I do have access to twitter on my phone. My post was more for those without than myself. Your condescension is unwarranted and unappreciated.
You're the one asking for others to go out of the way to accommodate, everyone else seems to have no problem accessing these sort of links. In the time you spent arguing you could have just gone and used one of your 6 computers in the house then.
In wake of the Supreme Court's ruling that presidents are granted total immunity for "official acts," a path has opened for Donald Trump to avoid sentencing for his conviction on falsifying business records to hide an affair with adult film actress Stormy Daniels. According to The New Republic, Juan Merchan, the judge who presided over the hush-money trial that landed Trump with 34 felony convictions, is no longer certain that sentencing, which was delayed to September, will ever happen.
“The Court’s decision will be rendered off calendar on September 6, 2024, and the matter is adjourned to September 18, 2024 at 10:00 AM for the imposition of sentence, if such is still necessary, or other proceedings,” New York State Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan wrote in a letter Tuesday. The sentencing was supposed to take place on July 11, just days before the Republican National Convention.>
No, everything Trump has been convicted of or charged with fell under his Article 2 Constitutional authority. What Obama and Hillary did falls outside Article 2, they violated Trump's rights by attacking a political opponent. Hillary paid for the dossier, they used it to get FISA warrants to spy on Trump. Obama knew what was going on, his VP Dick Cheney told him and Obama did nothing to stop it.

Ty from everyone who couldnt see the tweet.

Hell even a cheap Linux PC is easy to set up and learn these days and way more secure, there's no excuse to still be using WinXP.
Install Linux on that PC.

^ yep, not good fren behavior.
They wasted government resources on this witch hunt, no consequences!?
Yes just like Russia, Russia 🤨
YES! I placed our President on a prayer roll! I’m grateful! 😀
That's an extremely biased article, and they get many of the facts wrong.
Yes, it is an MSN article, but they are admitting the case against Trump is dead.
All according to plan.

Does this ruling prevent Trump from going after obama, Bush and Clinton?
No, everything Trump has been convicted of or charged with fell under his Article 2 Constitutional authority.

IMO, no. Think about their crimes and what an “Official Act” is.
No, it clearly defined the difference between official acts and unofficial acts.
so the Judge is running scared? Not surprising
So, what does "decided off calendar" mean? I'm definitely no lawfag 🙈 and best I can tell, Sept 6, 2024 is ON the calendar lol
I am just guessing, but the decision will be made without setting an official date on the docket to make the announcement.
