BS.
It is not an issue of “jurisdiction”. If the DA’s “evidence” is tainted, it has direct bearing on the case.
OJ Simpson got off because the defense was able to cast doubt on maybe 5% of the evidence against him, therefore “contaminating” the other 95%. The jury was suspicious of the bloody glove “found” by Detective Furhman (so was I) and that allowed them to ignore the victim’s blood on the Bronco (which didn’t have any logical explanation).
Not saying that would happen with a partisan jury pool in Fulton Co. but it certainly would brought up on appeal.

My view on OJ was that he was both framed and guilty.
The prosecution’s strategy was to use every single bit of evidence they could find, even some that might be questionable, under the “overwhelming weight of the evidence” theory.
It was a huge mistake, they had an open and shut case until the defense was able to poke holes on a small portion of the evidence and then throw out the baby with the bathwater so to speak. When you have the victim’s blood on the door of the defendant’s car you don’t really need to prove a glove dropped at his house “fit”.
That jury was looking for an excuse to acquit OJ, and the defense provided them with it. In GA, the jury will be looking for any reason to convict the defendants, so tainted evidence won’t matter. It could matter on appeal.

From the article:
In an email, Greenberg summarized the results: “This is grim.” The study, he said, found that collectively, voters in the Democratic base of “Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, LGBTQ+ community, Gen Z, millennials, unmarried and college women give Trump higher approval ratings than Biden.”
On 32 subjects ranging from abortion to China, the Democracy Corps survey asked voters to choose which would be better, “Biden and the Democrats” or “Trump and the Republicans.”
Biden and the Democrats led on six: women’s rights (ahead by 17 points), climate change (15 points), addressing racial inequality (10 points), health care (3 points), the president will not be an autocrat (plus 2) and protecting Democracy (plus 1). There was a tie on making democracy more secure.
Donald Trump and the Republicans held leads on the remaining subjects, including being for working people (a 7-point advantage), standing up to elites (8 points), being able to get things done for the American people (12 points), feeling safe (12 points) and keeping wages and salaries up with the cost of living (17 points).

Tina, informative posting from you today. Everything swirling around the Trump indictments seem to involve collusion, constitutional distortion, or fabrication of reality or evidence. The DC draino Willis letter, in itself, should hurt her case, even with evidence being destroyed (which will also put question marks as to the validly of her charges). As for McCarthy resigning, it’s an act of revenge from him to put control of the House in jeopardy, possibly leaving it with a one-person majority in 2024.
In the meantime, should the House be turned over to the Dems, all the overseas funding of wars will be granted, unlike what is currently happening with a slim R majority. A meeting yesterday had the worst Secretary of Defense, Lloyd Austin, threatening Congress with unsubstantial warnings about what will happen should the billions of aid not be given – this kind of military wisdom from a man pushing climate change as a top priority, CRT training, pushing conservatives out of the military, and in charge of the disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal. Yep, this guy is brilliant! The republicans walked out of that meeting, not trusting Austin’s version. But, his words will be embraced should the Dems be in charge, and the one-issue warriors around here will be joyous.

The U.S. and Guyana defense forces discussed upcoming engagements to include strategic planning sessions and processes to enhance both countries’ military readiness and capabilities to respond to security threats.
The SFAB is a specialized unit of the U.S. Army established to advise and assist partner nations. Since 2022, the SFAB has conducted several joint training exercises with the GDF to strengthen their capacity and capability at the tactical and operational levels.
The SFAB Advisors stated, “We are thankful for the opportunity to train with the Guyana Defense Force as our partners and friends. We look forward to deepening the partnership in the weeks and months to come.”

“Pro-Russia Ukrainian MP Illia Kyva shot dead in Moscow suburb
A former Ukrainian MP regarded by Kyiv as a traitor has been shot dead in a park in suburban Moscow , in an attack attributed to Ukraine’s SBU security service.
Illia Kyva was a pro-Russian member of Ukraine’s parliament before Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, but fled to Russia a month before the start of the war and frequently criticised Ukrainian authorities online and on Russian state TV talkshows.
Russian investigators said in a statement on Wednesday that Kyva had been shot, adding that his body was discovered in a park in the elite Moscow suburb of Odintsovo.
“An unknown person fired shots at the victim from an unidentified weapon. The man died on the spot from his injuries,” Russia’s investigative committee said in a statement.
In a comment to national TV, Ukraine’s military intelligence spokesperson Andriy Yusov hinted at the country’s involvement in the killing: “We can confirm that Kyva is done. Such a fate will befall other traitors of Ukraine, as well as the henchmen of the Putin regime.”
The killing suggests that Kyiv continues to have undercover assets deep inside Russia. Moscow has previously blamed Ukrainian secret services for the assassination of Darya Dugina, the daughter of an ultra-nationalist Russian ideologue, and the death of Vladlen Tatarsky, a prominent Russian military blogger who was killed after a blast in a cafe in central St Petersburg.
In a separate attack on Wednesday, a Russian-backed politician in occupied Ukraine’s eastern Luhansk regions was killed in a car bombing.
Oleg Popov, who served as a deputy in the pro-Moscow Luhansk regional parliament, was killed after the “detonation of an unidentified device in a car”, Russia’s investigative committee said, without providing detail.
Several Russian-controlled officials in eastern Ukraine have been killed since the start of the war.”

Let’s hope we see a lot more of this.
The United States charged four pro-Russian soldiers with war crimes on Wednesday for the abduction and torture of an American national in Ukraine.
Merrick Garland, the attorney general, said the charges against the four “Russia-affiliated military personnel” were the first to be brought under the US war crimes statute.
According to the indictment, two of those charged – Suren Seiranovich Mkrtchyan and Dmitry Budnik – were commanding officers of military units of the “Russian Armed Forces and/or the so-called Donetsk People’s Republic”.
The two others charged were lower ranking military personnel, identified by only their first names – Valerii and Nazar.
“Acting on behalf of the Russian Armed Forces and the so-called Donetsk People’s Republic, these four individuals allegedly violated the human rights of an American citizen,” said Katrina Berger, executive associate director of Homeland Security Investigations.
The Justice Department said Mkrtchyan and the other soldiers abducted the US national, who was not identified, in April 2022 from his home in the village of Mylove in the Kherson Oblast in southern Ukraine and held him for at least 10 days.
“Mkrtchyan, Valerii, Nazar, and others allegedly threw the victim face down to the ground while he was naked, tied his hands behind his back, pointed a gun at his head, and severely beat him,” the Justice Department said in a statement.
At one point, Budnik threatened to kill the victim and asked for his last words, it said.
“Shortly thereafter, Nazar and others allegedly conducted a mock execution,” the statement added. “They allegedly forced the victim to the ground, put a gun to the back of his head, then moved the gun slightly and shot a bullet just past the victim’s head.”
The four are charged with three war crimes – unlawful confinement, torture, and inhuman treatment – and one count of conspiracy to commit war crimes.
If taken into custody and convicted they face a maximum sentence of life in prison.
“As the world has witnessed the horrors of Russia’s brutal invasion of Ukraine, so has the United States Department of Justice,” Mr Garland said. “The Justice Department will work for as long as it takes to pursue accountability and justice for Russia’s war of aggression.”

My final take is RDS had the best night because he went on the attack, and whenever he was attacked in return he just confidently spoke truth and kept talking about his legislative victories. Someone said..”He just kept pulling bills out of his pocket” He exposed Haley tonight and laid her to waste. The debate covered most of the issues the base cares about. I miss the poop map. A better answer regarding Trump being “fit” for office would have been… no because of character. If Trump wasn’t running he would win the primary easily. There is no way Trump will ever debate RDS…he is a formidable debater and a strong ass leader. It’s obvious.

Haley says she’ll back Trump, stand down if he runs in 2024
4/12/2021
ORANGEBURG, S.C. (AP) — Former U.N. Ambassador and South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, often mentioned as a possible 2024 GOP presidential contender, said Monday that she would not seek her party’s nomination if former President Donald Trump opts to run a second time.
“Yes,” Haley said, when asked if she would support a second bid by Trump, in whose Cabinet she served for the first half of his administration.
“I would not run if President Trump ran, and I would talk to him about it,” Haley said, asked by The Associated Press if a possible Trump bid could preclude her own effort, were he to announce first. “taffing turmoil.
On Monday, Haley defended her former boss, who this past weekend lit into fellow Republicans including his own vice president, saying he was “disappointed” in Mike Pence and calling Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell a “stone-cold loser.”
“I think former President Trump’s always been opinionated,” Haley said, asked about Trump’s weekend comments and if they hurt the GOP. “Just because he left being president, that’s not going to stop. But I think what he also talked about were all the successes that he had in the administration. And I think that’s what Republicans are uniting on. … Every day Biden and Kamala Harris are in office unites the Republicans.”

So Biden says he met with Golda Meir after the Israel’s Six Day war. Pretty impressive for a kid who was still in High-School.
If more questions could have been put to Biden, it could have gone this way:
Question: What do you think of public displays of the Ten Commandments?
Biden: I opposed these displays, uh, be-because, you know, I was there that day, and I met with Moses when he came down from the uh, the mountain. I could see the writing on the uh, on the stone, was the handwriting of Moses, not God.
Question: What great empire from history inspires you the most?
Biden: The Babylonians were the best. I mean look at the story. Neb…Neb…I am not going to pronounce his name right…Neba-chuzzier [sic. Nebuchadnezzar] rules the world, right? But he goes insane, so, I uh, I met with him after, you know, after he was put out of office, and I tell him, look, don’t let them tell you you’re insane, you can still do this. And the rest is history. He gets back into power and does a great job for the American uh, I mean Babylonian people.
Question: And what do you think of Alexander the Great?
Biden: Oh he was good too, you know Greece didn’t amount to much, and so I go over there, and I find this nice, clean, young Greek kid, and I tell him, Alex, you can lead your people. I know you can do it. And within a few years he conquered the world.
Question: Any thoughts on Julius Caesar?
Biden: A great man. I didn’t meet him until later in my time in the senate. But Rome had great senators. I was happy to serve with them.
Question: What about President Franklin Roosevelt?
Biden: President Roosevelt? Oh, he was before my time. How old do you think I am? I did have a chance to meet his son Teddy Roosevelt. I think he was president too.

I agree with the first part, not the second.
Unfortunately, it is probable that some of his bad picks were BECAUSE of his advisors, I don’t think he would have picked Wray on his own for example. I am sure he picked Sessions because he values loyalty and Sessions was the first senator to endorse him. On the hand his inclination was probably to fire Comey on Day 1 but he was probably advised not too. Big mistake.
Trump did more to reach out beyond his base than any President I can remember. Can you think of ONE thing Biden has done to “reach beyond his base”? No? Me neither.

Several polls confirm there is still strong support for Ukraine, which is encouraging given the amount of Pro-Putin propaganda of the the type Janzam regurgitates here all the time.
“The baseline is a November 2 Gallup Poll showing that 55% of Americans think we are doing the right amount or need to do a lot more.
The 2023 Reagan Institute Summer Survey found a strong majority in favor of supporting Ukraine.
“Three-quarters of Americans say that it is important to the United States that Ukraine wins the war against Russian aggression, including bipartisan supermajorities of Democrats (86%) and Republicans (71%). Independents lag significantly behind partisans at 58%. Americans are less sure of who is currently winning the war between Russia and Ukraine, with 31% saying Ukraine, 27% saying Russia, 25% saying neither, and 17% saying that they do not know.
The Chicago Council on Global Affairs had similar findings.
Majorities of Americans continue to support providing economic assistance (61%) and sending additional arms and military supplies to the Ukrainian government (63%), down slightly from a year ago. About half of Republicans agree.
A narrow majority of Americans say that the $43 billion in weapons, equipment and training that the United States has provided to Ukraine has been worth the cost (53% vs. 45% not worth the cost). Six in 10 Republicans say it has not been worth it.
An Emerson College poll conducted on behalf of the Association of Marshall Scholars found that 76% of respondents felt that NATO members should continue to support Ukraine.
This means that there will be Congressional support for Ukraine funding for the near future.”
It is sad 6/10 Rs are succumbing to pro-Kremlin propaganda on the value of the aid but still encouraging that 71% of Rs think it is important that Ukraine win the war against Russian aggression.

MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) – A man has been charged with murder after killing a woman who allegedly made him feel “suspicious” while performing oral sex, according to charges.
Damarean Kaylon Bible, 25, of Minneapolis is charged with second-degree murder after the deadly shooting near Lake Street early Tuesday morning.
Speaking with authorities, Bible initially claimed he was not involved in the shooting, but later admitted that he was once shown the video footage gathered by investigators. He then admitted to shooting the victim, saying she made him feel suspicious while performing oral sex.
After the sex act was complete, Bible said he continued to feel suspicious, so he shot her. Gunshot residue was located on her sweatshirt hood, according to police, and he admitted to shooting her from “inches away.”
Once arrested, Bible was given a phone to make calls to his parents, during which he told his dad that he “just murdered someone” and that he, “knew he wasn’t God, but he had to do it.”
