Some context:
Former Trump White House Communications Director Michael Dubke suggested on CNN Tuesday that Trump had mobilized his allies and proxies to the courthouse in an effort to “get around the gag order” imposed on him by Judge Merchan.
Yep. He’s trying to violate the gag order indirectly. Unfortunately for him, the gag order specifically includes attempting to have surrogates violate the order on his behalf.
I suspect there’s another gag order hearing incoming.
“It’s not an 11th violation of the gag order! It’s the first time he violated the gag order in this way. That automatically restarts the count!” – Trump’s lawyers, probably.
80/20 odds says this judge goes with it so he doesn’t actually have to punish Trump.
I’ll eat my hat if he locks the orange dumpster fire up for contempt. Zero fucking chance.
I’ll eat your hat if any of these judges ever grow the balls to lock him up for anything.
Just like QI. Was never warned about this specific type of violation, so this scolding won’t even cost $1,000 for Donald.
If you just rtfa you would see that he’s also barred from directing a third party to say something.
But, nah, reading and educating yourself takes precious time away from being outraged. Hell, sometimes it makes it even harder to find a reason to be outraged.
funny how you sound outraged but, like, sullen about it, like you’re on the side of the losers or something, also you didn’t say anything about what he said which is teh lulz. you just came in outraged about the outrage, and played yourself!
Which is funny cuz the first post seems more sad than angry, which was also in your post, yet you focused on the other thing. Weird!
I responded literally directly to what was said by pointing out that article notes that the gag order includes a ban on him directing other people to speak for him.
And I didn’t actually address it? How does one even reason themselves into such a ridiculously mindless position?
Your reading comprehension is BAD. Like bad bad. Real bad.
This place is just getting worse and worse. You’re right, but lemmy == reddit with the unthinking downvotes.
if downvotes on reddit are the reason you’re here, you’re not here for the right reason
if you think the behaviour of the users on reddit was the problem, you don’t get why the rest of us are here
OK gatekeeper.
