One is sitting in jail because he refused to negotiate bail. Good for him. Such a patriot

This is the jail where the inmate died from being devoured by bedbugs

Just to clarify this ... he didn't have an attorney nor could he afford one so he entered the jail w/o seeking representation or petitioning for a bond in the state case. If that wasn't bad enough, he had another outstanding case in which he assaulted an FBI agent while being arrested on Federal charges in another state. He came in on a Friday, stayed in jail over the weekend until a state judge heard and then held him w/o bond due to the other outstanding warrant for arrest and assault of that Federal agent.

He is not going to have the luxuries of the others - so this is another example of that 'two-tiered' justice system.

trump's new lawyer once called him racist, un-american, sick, cruel and unforgiveable; that was in 2017

As a citizen, his new lawyer had the right to his opinion at the time. He 'just opined it by thinking about it.' As a lawyer for Trump, he is bound by law to provide prudent legal defense and objectively set aside his thoughts on the current matter. And the money has got to be good - hopefully paid upfront - certainly, EVERYONE knows who has or ever will work for Donald T by now.

So you got an inkling he may not like Trump? Whatever gave that away?

It's a rare ex-Trump lawyer who doesn't file a case against him for something. Even Rudolph has to pick his words carefully.

So? Guess he should have taken care of that outstanding warrant huh?

Disbarred attorney Rudy Giuliani is complaining about a shortage of lawyers to defend him. If only he wasn't disbarred...

of course he has that right, no one would deny it

my thinking was more along the lines of 'is trump actually aware he said that about him?', 'has trump had to sink that low he can only find someone with that opinion of him but is still willing to take his money?', and how mealy-mouthed the lawyer now is about 'we don't get to choose our clients'...bollocks. He could refuse to represent trump the same so many others have before.

I understand your high-ground point. I wouldn't want to represent Mr. Trump, given all the baggage he carries and his narcissistic personality.

From the lawyer's perspective, it comes down to money. So it isn't about choosing the client - it is about accepting a high-profile client that allows his firm to brag about their expertise and charge more money than before. It's bragging rights with $$$$$$.

Yes, he could take the moral high road and refuse the client - but that's not in the nature of most lawyers. After all, you must swallow your pride and represent your client in court even when he tells you he is guilty. Thus, lawyers generally have no 'moral high grounds,' so to speak. That's why there are so many bad lawyer jokes. [Saying this somewhat facetiously.]

Trump could care less about what a person thinks about him. He only thinks in terms of what level of services that person can provide him and possibly how he can screw them over afterward.

Point taken.

apparently meadows has to make yet another court appearance regarding his efforts to get his case moved to federal court

In a Tuesday order, U.S. District Judge Steve C. Jones asked both Meadows and Fulton County prosecutors for a more substantial legal argument around one particular issue: whether the case should be moved to federal court if Jones agreed that “at least one (but not all) of the overt acts charged occurred under the color of Meadows’ office.”

A day after setting Trump's trial date for March 4, Chutkan wasted no time shooting down the six motions.

At least one document was described as a brief "in support of Donald Trump."

 

[butters]

nicely illustrating piece about why meadows' case shouldn't be referred to fed court under the excuse he was only doing what he did as a part of his job:

Problem is, helping candidate Donald Trump attempt to overturn an election is not part of a Chief of Staff's duties. Meadows said in court that he was not endorsing the fraud claims but was only helping then-President Trump investigate the allegations. Even if this were true, however, it is the Attorney General and not the White House Chief of Staff who would lead such an investigation.

Perhaps the reason that Meadows did not defer to DOJ is because they had already concluded that there was no widespread election fraud. It is not the White House Chief of Staff's role to intervene when the country's top law enforcement official refuses to do so.

Lastly, the federal Hatch Act of 1939, which forbids federal employees from interfering in elections, bars Mark Meadows from engaging in the very activities that he admits he did. Thus, he cannot have a "colorable federal defense" to the underlying charges and should not have his case removed to federal court.

Rudy forfeited the Georgia defamation case against him because he refused to turn over records. He was found guilty as a result. Now the Civil damages can accrue. I think...since he just sold his Manhattan apartment for 6.3 million...that that is a fair damage amount. Bury the piece of shit in the pulper cemetery he once refused to finance

Democrat Questions Trump's Chance at 'Fair' Campaign During Trial​

Representative Ro Khanna said that Trump's court dates should not "compromise [the former president's] ability to have a robust campaign schedule."

Right. All 215 pounds of him.

I don't think that someone's decision to run for public office erases due process for crimes they are indicted for. Steam ahead on the trials without reference to his campaigning. Those who say this is election interference would find a way to object to it anyway. Everyone knows he's only running to try to keep himself out of prison. It has nothing to do with fulfilling the public support duties of a president.
