There was a time when mules were of great value in the creation of what sustains all human community life. Mules that pulled ploughshares were evaluated with a level of discernment that would rival modern NFL drafts.
Entire communities, often spread miles apart, knew the strength of each other person’s mules. Auctions would bring people from great distances, and there were quiet men of great knowledge who understood the invisible traits that qualified the best mules.
The best, the absolute best, were held with a regard even more valuable than the land they walked. The remarkable thing about these mules was their diversity in physical appearance. Ultimately, what made the great mules of such value was the part that could not be seen, the part the quiet men looked for.
President Trump delivered brief remarks to the assembled press pool in New York City after the jury delivered a guilty verdict. WATCH:
.
President Trump said he will not quit the fight for our nation. This one man is the tip of our national spear.
Regardless of how much they attack him, President Trump stands resolute, steadfast and unwavering in opposition to the destruction of our nation. As much as it pains us to see these vicious lawfare attacks, we can be certain that every leftist effort will result in a backfire against them.
Pray for President Trump. Pray for strength within our nation and prepare yourself mentally for the task at hand.
UPDATE: According to media in the courtroom the New York City jury has found President Trump guilty on all 34 counts.
PREVIOUSLY – According to media in New York City, the jurors in the Trump trial have informed Judge Juan Merchan they have reached a verdict. According to most media reports the jurors requested an extra 30 minutes after their planned 4:30 p.m. court end time to fill out the jury verdict form. WE AWAIT THE NEWS
To see just how insane this trial was at the direction of the New York District Attorney Alvin Bragg and corrupt Judge Juan Merchan you can take a look at the jury instructions [55-Page pdf HERE]. The jury instructions are a Lawfare construct assembled by Judge Merchan to frame deliberations against President Trump. Read them to see how crazy they are.
After the Judge ended a half day of jury deliberations, President Trump gave a short interview to Dan Bongino. Interestingly at the 12:33 point, Bongino notes the importance of the Attorney General position in the next administration. President Trump immediately says he made two bad choices in that position in the prior administration. WATCH:
.
The world is waiting to see the outcome of these jury deliberations. It’s crazy how silly the USA looks to the rest of the world.
President Trump delivers remarks after Judge Juan Merchan delivered some of the most ridiculous instructions in the history of jury instructions.
Judge Juan Merchan told jurors they do not have to agree unanimously on each of the 3 counts charged. The jury can have 4 members agree to guilt on each of the three counts and the judge will accept that as 12 decisions for guilt overall. There’s no way these types of instructions will pass appellate court review; but that’s not the purpose of the Lawfare that Judge Merchan is participating in. WATCH:
Showcasing the political intents of the Biden administration to arrest and jail his political opposition, the campaign of Joe Biden thought it would be a good idea to hold a press conference outside the New York City courthouse where closing arguments are taking place. The Biden team thought it would be a good idea to showcase the politics of the prosecution; go figure.
Supporting the effort was the washed-up actor Robert De Niro, known in acting circles as Hollywood’s tallest midget (video below). The actor was heckled by the pro-Trump supporters near the courthouse and the Biden campaign team was visibly frustrated. Things just didn’t go well for them. The whole event was really goofy. WATCH:

Donald Trump Jr, Eric Trump and Lara Trump delivered remarks to the media following the rather silly Biden campaign effort.
NEW YORK – […] Anti-Trump protesters and supporters of the presumptive GOP presidential nominee got into a scuffle outside Manhattan Supreme Court during dueling press conferences by the 2024 campaigns for Trump and President Biden — the latter of which featured a fired-up Robert De Niro speaking to a crowd of dozens.
Inside the courthouse, defense lawyer Todd Blanche told the jury of seven men and five women that Trump’s longtime lawyer-turned-star-prosecution-witness Michael Cohen was “the GLOAT. He’s the greatest liar of all time.” (read more)
HatTip The Gateway Pundit – These remarks by former Mississippi Governor Phil Bryant are somewhat shocking to hear said out loud.
Governor Phil Bryant: “I’m the campaign finance director for Donald Trump in Mississippi, so we raise money. I’ve talked to a number of very wealthy individuals that God has blessed that say I can’t give money to Donald Trump because the FBI will show up at my door.”
One of the more sad, albeit predictable, aspects to the politicization of American justice institutions is that there’s less and less shock associated with the dropping of pretenses. Many people on these pages and in the discussions across the internet warned several years ago that downstream from the weaponized government was going to be an end-point era where all trust was dissolved. We are essentially at that point now.
While both wings of the UniParty apparatus in DC played together in the creation of the post 9-11 surveillance state, it was the Obama administration who added the weaponization knob based on political ideology.
Weaponizing the DOJ and FBI via the Intelligence Community (2012 and beyond) was an outcropping of the previous weaponization of the IRS and regulatory system (2009 to 2012). When I discuss this issue with people, I like to draw attention to the Obama and Eric Holder continuum.
The National Security Division of the DOJ (DOJ-NSD) was created by Eric Holder specifically to function as a weaponized agency, using FARA (Foreign Agent Registration Act) as the tool for the surveillance and targeting. While the NSD system was being put into place (2009/2010), Main Justice requested the CD ROMs from the IRS containing the Schedule-Bs of every 501(c-4) political organization. The DOJ quickly settled the class action lawsuit brought by conservative groups.
With the spotlight on the Cincinnati office (Louis Lerner), Obama moved his Chief of Staff Jack Lew into position as Treasury Secretary. The DOJ under Eric Holder then moved away from using the IRS and began to using the NSA database (weaponized FISA-702 authority) in 2012.
Judge Aileen Cannon has rejected the request by Special Prosecutor Jack Smith to ban President Trump from talking about the DOJ/FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago, and/or the circumstances that led to the Biden administration approving the use of deadly force.
FLORIDA – […] U.S. District Court Judge Aileen Cannon turned down the gag order request Tuesday as she delivered another sharp warning to prosecutors that they need to make more concerted efforts at dialogue with Trump’s counsel before bringing disputes to the court.
“The Court finds the Special Counsel’s pro forma ‘conferral’ [with the defense] to be wholly lacking in substance and professional courtesy,” wrote Cannon, a Trump appointee. “It should go without saying that meaningful conferral is not a perfunctory exercise.”
Tim Pool admits in this interview that he voted for President Obama, became cynical and jaded thereafter, didn’t vote in the 2016 election and finally awakened to the pragmatic value of President Trump in 2020, now calling him “the greatest president of my lifetime.”
Perhaps Mr Pool’s personal political story follows the arc of many self-described young libertarians, I don’t know. Factually, I try to relate to those who didn’t see the fraud that Barack Obama represented, but often I find myself walking away physically and mentally from this expressed political worldview because it seems odd to me. I want to embrace those who are new to a reality of massive political manipulation in the U.S, yet I find myself struggling to understand how so many people just didn’t (or don’t) see it.
In this interview Tim Pool asks President Trump about deportation of illegal aliens, the structure of a new cabinet, how to eliminate the bureaucracy that seems to control the DC machinery, and more. The video is prompted to the segment with President Trump [1:31:00]. WATCH:
At this point in time finding Donald Trump guilty of anything, any crime at all, is just a matter of Judge Juan Merchan following through on expectations.
The entire world is watching what happens in New York City through the prism of ridiculous lawfare and politics. No intellectually honest observers believe this is a trial about substance, guilt, criminal activity or innocence therein. The illusion of a nonprejudicial justice system has long past and everyone can see the extreme politicization taking place in Judge Merchan’s courtroom.
Finding President Trump guilty of a crime is seemingly a foregone conclusion. Even the White House is saying Joe Biden will deliver remarks to the nation from the official executive office as soon as the guilty verdict is delivered {SEE HERE}.
Judge Merchan has yet to release the public version of jury instructions, however he previously decided last week that the jurors do not need to agree on a predicate crime in order to fund President Trump guilty of trying to hide one.
Yes, you read that correctly…. The jurors do not need to believe a crime was committed in order to convict Trump of unlawfully hiding a crime he never committed. Let that insufferable Lawfare logic sink in.
There was a time when mules were of great value in the creation of what sustains all human community life. Mules that pulled ploughshares were evaluated with a level of discernment that would rival modern NFL drafts.
