The most "perilous" case, according to the article that Trump was facing has been dismissed by a judge.

The decision by U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon brings a stunning and abrupt conclusion to a criminal case that at the time it was filed was widely regarded as the most perilous of all the legal threats that the Republican former president confronted. Trump faced dozens of felony counts accusing him of illegally hoarding classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida, and obstructing FBI efforts to get them back.

Thread contains about two dozen bat#### crazy GOP campaign ads from the last 10 years wherein they shoot either Democrats at large, Democrat politicians, Democrat policies (???) or analogue stand-ins for Democrats.

Only way to fix any problem is to shoot it.
To be fair, a couple of those ads were pretty good I thought. (The one where she shot/exploded the Prius with socialism printed on the side was not one of those).

Well sure seems like we are the way to project 2025 rolling out in the US. I wonder if they’ll just fire all public servants in the Fed who voted Democrat. Trump is going to be happy consolidate power and the the system is rolling over for him.

I for one am shocked somebody like Eileen Cannon would do something like this. Absolutely floored.

Sounds like you are recalling the congressional baseball shooting in 2017. The House Majority Whip, a Police Officer, a Congressional Aide and lobbyist were shot. The shooter had a violent past and was a left wing activist. The House Majority Whip shot was Republican Steve Scalise.

The 11th Circuit already squashed her a few times, this decision will get appealed as well. I wonder if they reverse that if it goes back to her or if it'll get shifted to a judge with actual experience.

Shush now. You may only post things that confirm the only gun slinging kooks in America are Republicans. No one has any interest in this.

Yes, a baseball game! Thanks for recalling this and a bit surprised to be honest that in fact it was a Republican that was shot by someone from the left.

No shortage of US politicians assassinated. It's the American Way.

Trump plans to announce his running mate today. Wonder who he selects? MTG? Someone else?

No way it's MTG. I would bet it's J.D. Vance.

Unless he or the chosen candidate pulls out due to that not wanting to risk themselves.

J.D. Vance sounds like an evil Wall Street fat cat who wears a suit, smokes cigars and owns several oil companies.

Trump in an interview on the photo:
“Elsewhere in the interview, Trump said he’s “supposed to be dead.”
“A lot of people say it’s the most iconic photo they’ve ever seen,” he added of an image of him pumping his fist before being escorted away by agents.
“They’re right and I didn’t die. Usually you have to die to have an iconic picture,” he added.”

He famously wrote a book about his difficult journey from a white trash family to being an evil wall street fat cat (actually a high price lawyer, but you know something like that).
