I wish the judicial system would take a harder line. Trump's violated the gag order daily. The media has zero interest in protecting identity. Have the orange bastard spend the night in the clink and ban the media from the courthouse.
Neither group can self regulate.

Yes, jury intimidation at its finest.

But on Thursday, Judge Juan Merchan revealed in court that one of the seven, a cancer nurse, had “conveyed that after sleeping on it overnight she had concerns about her ability to be fair and impartial in this case.”
And though jurors’ names are being kept confidential, the woman told the judge and the lawyers that she had doubts after she said aspects of her identity had been made public.
“Yesterday alone I had friends, colleagues and family push things to my phone regarding questioning my identity as a juror," she said. "I don’t believe at this point that I can be fair and unbiased and let the outside influences not affect my decision making in the courtroom.”

Quote:
After dismissing from the jury the nurse who had already been selected, Merchan ordered journalists in court not to report prospective jurors’ answers to questions about their current and former employers.
“We just lost, probably, what probably would have been a very good juror for this case, and the first thing that she said was she was afraid and intimidated by the press, all the press, and everything that had happened," Merchan said after dismissing the juror.
Prosecutors had asked that the employer inquiries be axed from the jury questionnaire. Defense lawyer Todd Blanche responded that “depriving us of the information because of what the press is doing isn’t the answer.”

didn't think Johnson would have it in him, given that Moscow Marjorie and friends are openly threatening to oust him - but the Israel/Ukraine package is now on track to pass after the House voted 316-94 for it.
Quote:
A bipartisan coalition in the House, led by House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), has overcome a key procedural hurdle to advance a $95 billion foreign aid bill, despite objections from far-right lawmakers.
The vote now puts the legislation to fund Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan on a likely track of passing the House on Saturday. It comes after Israel carried out a strike on Iran early Friday in retaliation for a barrage of missiles and drones launched by Iran last weekend, an Israeli official said.
A rare coalition of Democrats and Republicans — 316 — voted overwhelmingly to pass the procedural measure, known as a rule, to advance the four-part legislation Friday morning. In a sign of how tenuous this move is for Republicans, more Democrats — 165 — voted for the rule than Republicans — 151.

They have a jury and the alternates.
Trump farts when he sleeps.
Someone set themselves on fire outside the court house.
The bond for appeal in trumps civil fraud conviction may not be legit. Prosecution has filed to vacate that bond as it doesnt meet legal/fiscal requirement. Judge will rule Monday.
