I think we are well into the dominoes-falling stage of the proceedings.
Or, you might stay, the

Just more stable genius stuff.
Trump on Truth Social called James "corrupt and racist" over the lawsuit before lashing out at Engoron, calling him a "Trump Hating Judge who is who is unfair, unhinged, and vicious in his PURSUIT of me."
Engoron's ruling last week cited multiple examples of Trump overstating the value of his assets. In one case, Engoron wrote, Trump's financial statements valued his Mar-a-Lago club at between $427 million to $612 million even though the Palm Beach County assessor appraised the market value of the property at $18 million to $27.6 million.
"He values Mar-a-Lago, in Palm Beach, Florida, at 18 Million Dollars, when it is worth 50 to 100 times that amount," Trump wrote shortly before midnight. "His valuations are FRAUDULENT in pursuit of Election Interference, and worse. THIS WHOLE CASE IS A SHAM!!!"
Trump went on to claim that Engoron "refuses to accept our big win" from an appeals court in June, which raised the prospect that some of the allegations in the lawsuit were too old to try. But the court on Thursday rejected Trump's attempt to dodge the charges and allowed the case to proceed to trial.
"Judge Engoron's Valuation of Mar-a-Lago, the most spectacular property in Palm Beach, Florida, IS FRAUDULENT!" Trump continued to fume shortly before 1 am. "He states a value of 18 Million Dollars, knowing full well that it is worth, perhaps, 50 to 100 times that amount. Engoron is working diligently to misrepresent me, and my net worth, which is substantially MORE than is shown on my fully 'disclaimed' Financial Statements. I have not even included my most valuable asset - BRAND!"
BRAND!
Do you know who I AM?

I think what Chutkan did is - again - quite smart. She has scheduled a hearing on a possible gag order, a couple weeks out. Since scheduling that hearing, The Defendant has
already come out with additional aggressive language toward judges, counsel and witnesses.
I think what she's doing is letting the prosecutors build a case based
solely on what he's done while obviously on notice. Much in the way that the prosecutors (like the House select committee earlier in the year) are building their cases almost entirely on (1) documentary evidence, and (2) testimony of
Republicans, especially appointees.

Too late for a "gag order" during today's lunch break.
FAFO Day for the guy who tried to overthrow the government.

Trump the fascist whining after today's court session:
Donald Trump: “I think it is very unfair that I don't have a jury.”
It's his fault he doesn't have a jury. His lawyer, Alina Habba, botched the deadline to request one.
“The judge on Monday suggested that it may have been the former president's fault that the case is being tried without a jury.
Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron noted that “nobody asked for” a jury.”

Proof that, just as "conservative" republicans have been telling us for ~ the last 5 decades, (that's half a century, Randy), God and Jesus are republicans.

God and Jesus are blond white skinned republicans, to be clear.

Angry Jesus. I only remember one Bible story where Jesus got pissed off. And there was something about rich men getting into heaven.
