The Trump trial continues on Tuesday. The ex-attorney for Daniels and McDougal testified in the Trump trial. The attorney's name is Keith Davidson. He was questioned by prosecutors about the negotiations that led Daniels' tabloid deal and hush money payment. The payment is the center of the case against Trump. Many witnesses took the stand on Tuesday like Michael Cohen's former banker Gary Farro. Farro gave details about paperwork tied to the $130,000 payments to Daniels. Robert Browning testified, and he is the executive director of C-SPAN archives. His testimonial was used to enter videos featuring Trump into evidence. One key lawyers has confirmed Cohen's plan. Also, Trump removed the social media posts that Judge Juan Merchan ruled violated the gag order. Trump has to pay a $9000 fine by the end of the week. The judge said that Trump can be jailed if he violated the order again. Merchan will consider other gag order violations brought by the prosecution in a hearing on Thursday morning.
More than 1,000 protesters in over 60 colleges in America have been arrested. The vast majority of protesters have been peaceful and desire a ceasefire and liberation for the Palestinian people. Likewise, we condemn the minority of protesters using slurs, using objects to destroy windows and tables in Columbia, and who seek destruction instead of freedom for people in the Middle East. Those who commit destruction against innocent property have nothing to do with the freedom of speech and the right to protest. People have the right to protest injustice, but no one has the right to destroy innocent property or threaten people based on race or creed. Criticizing Zionism and criticizing Israeli governmental policy isn't anti-Semitism, but some folks are anti-Semitic and use coded language in trying to spread hate. The terrorism of Hamas and the epidemic of anti-Semitism in America should not be minimized. Recently, a Jewish student was blocked from going to a class in UCLA. To be clear, most college protesters aren't anti-Semitic, but we have to be on the side of opposing bigotry. Also, we should condemn the excessive police response against some protesters that is blatantly police brutality, and we have tons of evidence showing that reality. The only solution is a two-state solution with no occupation, a ceasefire, freeing all Israeli hostages, reparations for Gaza and the West Bank to rebuild Palestinian lands, and full human rights for Israelis and Palestinians.
The historic protests in college campuses in America has been part of a movement. It has spread from Columbia University in New York City to Virginia, Georgia, California, etc. What is truth behind the protests? The vast majority of the protesters are not anti-Semitic. They sincerely feel that they want to protest the war in Gaza. They oppose the occupation of Gaza plus the West Bank and other aspects of the Middle Eastern crisis. There is no question that Hamas is a terrorist organization that committed the murder of innocent Israelis, and the far-right regime of Netanyahu is indeed complicit of war crimes in Gaza (like killing aid workers, harming civilian locations in Gaza, and other actions). This is a nuisance issue. There should be a promotion of the freedom of speech, and some officers have used excessive force against protesters proven by video evidence and witness testimony. Fights break out between pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian protesters at UCLA. This has been going on for decades like police repression of anti-Vietnam War protests and the protests during the anti-apartheid movement era. Many campus people were suspended at Columbia University. Also, we are clear to oppose anti-Semitism, and many of the protesters are Jewish people. So, these Columbia students demand the school to divest from Israel and have a ceasefire. We shall see what the future holds.
GOP South Dakota Governor and Trump Vice President nominee Noem defending shooting and killing her puppy is not shocking to me. It shows the cruelty and barbarism among many GOP MAGA cultists. This person bragging about this sick act in public shows how depraved her mind is. You don't kill an innocent puppy period. This is disgusting, and people have universally condemned her evil comments. Governor Kristi Noem should be ashamed of herself. This is insane for anyone to glorify killing a puppy. Donald Trump has yet to condemn her statements. The GOP is headed by Trump. The Republican Party is not the Party of Lincoln or David Rockefeller. It is the party of Trump being part of a cult. Cruelty and brutality are part of the MAGA cult ethos. Trump wants to change America for the worse.
The GOP has been a cult for a long time. One Arizona fake elector being part of the RNC post, and many Georgia GOP candidates (for the House of Representatives) believe in the lie that Trump won the election in Georgia in the 2020 election. The Republican Governor of Georgia, Kemp, even said that Biden won Georgia. Bill Barr still defending Trump after what has taken place shows his cowardice. Trump has criticized Barr too, but Barr wants to follow the MAGA cult. Barr believes in the lie that progressives are more of a threat to democracy than Donald Trump. The truth is that Trump has clearly stated that he wants to be a dictator on Day 1 if he is elected President, he wants retribution against people who disagree with him, and he seeks to renew the Muslim ban (which is anti-morality). No President has the right of unlimited immunity forever as no President should act like a king.
