Trumps criminal trial. The judge late today denying another attempt by trumps lawyers to just run away from this thing. Indeed, the judge admonishing trumps lawyers for insinuating that actor Stormy Daniels changed her story while rejkting the mistrial request.

That explains it. It is a dewormer. For a guy who believes doctors are con artists trying to scam you into getting a vaccine, he got a fast one when the worm started eating his brain. The inside of his head is basically the movie dune. You should definitely vote for him. I want to say to any of rfk jr. Fans who are watching, do not despair. Just because he admitted in a sworn deposition that he had parasitic brain damage doesnt mean he is going to drop out. Because Bobby Kennedy jr. Does not know the meaning of the word quit. That information was in the part of the brain that the worm ate. Good morning. Welcome to morning joe. It is thursday, may the 9th.
