There isn’t jury, it’s a Bench trial. Trump (all the best people) employed an idiot lawyer who neglected to tick the ‘trial by jury’ box. The trial is in any case a civil litigation, nobody is going to jail - although Trump could be sent to jail for contempt of court ‘Doxing court officials’ being his first strike. Getting sent to jail for contempt of court is a matter of the judges discretion, again nothing to do with a jury. I agree with Tug, ‘Doxing a court official’ should have earned Trump time in the slammer.

The judge doesn’t decide details of values, he refers to valuations prepared by people who do that for a living, and he refers to the differing valuations the defendant submitted in loan applications and tax filings. In layman’s terms these are referred to as ‘the receipts’ and the prosecution have them.

“It is going to be difficult for my Republican friends to keep calling President Biden ‘feeble’ while he continues to take Speaker McCarthy’s lunch money in every negotiation,” Gaetz, and other MAGA cultists seem unable to follow the obvious logical conclusion to that statement. He should at least realize he needs Democrat help to replace McCarthy. If Gaetz is stupid enough place himself in that position his next whinge fest will be about how Biden took Gaetz’s lunch money too.

Russell Brand and why the allegations took so long to surface
Chomper Higgot replied to Social Media's topic in World News
I think the comment was ‘put up or shut up’. But I might be mistaken. It’s often a response to someone making assertions they refuse to backup. Perhaps a little brusque but not an insult and easily negated by ‘putting up’. -

I think that was a direct challenge, not an insult. Claiming an insult in response to a direct challenge is a deflection, or swerve if you prefer. -
The decline in German exports to the UK include tools, machinery and components that would otherwise be used in UK’s own production and exports. Nobody in the UK is looking at Germany and thinking the mess the UK is acceptable because Germany is facing its own problems. Right now the UK Governing Party are at each other’s throats in Manchester, they know what’s coming their way at the election and it’s not because BREXIT is a success and life in the UK is going just swell.
