My response post I just did got lost. I understand that they already did a huge hatchet job on the pool. I might have misheard though. But we are likely to get 20 of the least informed new yorkers or at least people who claim they are.

if you can't add an arm...

see above for the Leroy Neiman sketch

Hey, so question about the longevity of this trial...I think i'll just keep this thread for trial stuff for the Alvin Bragg things...even though it is done up like a GDT. I was thinking about adding another for tomorrow and that just seemed exhausting.

I gather he posted against Bragg during lunch and that may have violated the gag order.

From CNN's live tracker. I don't believe this for a second given that he fell asleep. Attorney Todd Blanche said earlier that Trump wants to attend every conference, including side conferences during jury selection. That means Trump will be “eye-to-eye with these potential jurors, in close proximity, as they answer questions,” many of them about the former president that could signal their political views, CNN correspondent Kara Scannell said. Trump’s involvement has been a focal point of his legal strategy not just in this courtroom, but in the months leading up to the trial when his lawyers worked to delay the proceedings, CNN correspondent Phil Mattingly added.

So, he's on notice that jail time will come.

I don't see this in Haberman's feed. Beware.

Copium

Judge getting his warning. If you don't show up we will arrest you. If you disrupt the trial we will proceed without you and you will be in the hoosegow.

for comparison

almost Leroy Nieman worthy

Judge is back on the bench Judge Juan Merchan is back on the bench. He told the court that questions about admitting tweets about Michael Cohen from 2018 is "academic," because the door will be opened once Donald Trump's lawyers try to attack Cohen's credibility.

here are details about the gag order

Looks like they are on a break

Nay, this is MSNBC talking about what the reporters are sending out.

Oh, they are going over the gag order and threats to witnesses. They appear to be surprised by this on my broadcast.

Looks like E.Jean Carroll deposition is not being admitted though.

First inning going ok for the home team.

The bots and trolls are **** posting the hell out of this on Trump's behalf today.

so, walked by the secretary up in front of my office and she's got Foxnews on...and they are showing the motorcade of Trump going to the trial. I blurt out: "Hey its OJ!" I hope she found that deeply insulting.

Until and of course this gets destroyed by Trump killing off another one of his ex-wives...we need to assume this trial will start today.
