"[T]he US government is...trying to break up #Google, the largest #tech #company in the history of the world, and there has been virtually no press about it.
" #Biden's comms team isn't bragging about the administration's accomplishments, because the senior partners in this coalition oppose those accomplishments. They don't want to win an #election based on the promise to prosecute an anti-corporate revolution, because they are counter-revolutionaries."
"Let’s remember that #SCOTUS was packed by the Federalist Society to support the Koch brothers’ desire to install an oligarchy controlled government. Part one and two have already been achieved by packing the #SCOTUS and having Citizens United which legalized political bribery." -GeorgeVotesBlue

Justice #Merchan explains the reason prosecutors charged #Trump w/falsifying business records as a #felony: Because, they say, he covered up a second #crime, violating the state #ElectionLaw that forbids a #conspiracy to aid a person’s #election by #UnlawfulMeans.
Last week, prosecution won a major argument when they argued that the jurors did not have to agree #unanimously on the “unlawful means” (#crimes) they might determine that Trump used.
Here is the (two dimensional) political placing of the parties in the forthcoming UK election from Political Compass....
If you thought you didn't have an awful lot of choice, the fact that all major parties are (on this assessment) siting in the blue (Right/Authoritarian) quadrant will confirm that suspicion

“As part of this process, yet another false business record is created,” #Steinglass says, leaving a trail of potential #UnlawfulMeans that jurors could draw on during deliberations as they seek to determine whether #Trump unlawfully influenced his election victory.
On 27 Oct 2016, the money was sent, & on 28 Oct, just 11 days before the #election, #StormyDaniels signed the NDA.

#Steinglass lands his argument by saying that while the sex between #StormyDaniels & #Trump took place in 2006, the payoff wasn’t until 2016 because his concern was NOT his family, as his lawyers have suggested, but the #election.
Though many of Trump’s family members have been staring at their phones throughout this summation, all of them looked up when Steinglass said that.

#Blanche: “This is the #campaign, this is an #election, this is not a #crime.”
Blanche argued this in his opening statement, when he said “spoiler alert” — campaigns try to #influence elections.
#criminal #law #TrumpTrial #CatchAndKill #conspiracy #ElectionInterference
#Blanche is trying to suggest that the meeting that Trump & #MichaelCohen had in 2015 w/ #Pecker, of The #NationalEnquirer, when prosecutors say they hatched a plan to suppress damaging stories about #Trump & promote negative ones about his rivals, was SOP between a presidential #candidate & the #press. It was not.
Blanche suggests that bc Pecker’s relationship w/Trump, & their #CatchAndKill agreement, was not an #election #conspiracy bc it predated the campaign.
Confusing: Blanche highlights that “some sort of tax scheme” was involved in the repayment to #MichaelCohen. Prosecution’s theory of the case is that #Trump falsified records to cover up a #conspiracy to #influence the 2016 #election — & one way to prove the conspiracy is that #tax #crimes were involved. It’s unclear why Blanche would draw the jury’s attention to an important aspect of the prosecution’s case.

#EU #election poster for Centerpartiet spotted in #Stockholm today:
"Håll gränsen mot massövervakning" - means approximately "stand firm against mass surveillance" - Svante Linusson and Muharrem Demirok
Glad to see them pushing this important issue in the election. I hope it gets them some votes.
Election day is in two weeks, on June 9. Don't forget to vote!

Damning Evidence Blows Up Trump’s Espionage Crimes
Documents with classification markings discovered in Trump’s private quarters months after prosecutors had subpoenaed them and the FBI conducted its own exhaustive search of the property. Investigators had “strong evidence” that the former president “intended” to hide classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago resort, according to newly released court documents.
He told his staff to avoid security cameras when moving boxes.
And his espionage continues.

What do Americans really know about Trump and Biden?
Why Biden’s good news isn’t getting through, and what Biden should do about it - @rbreich
Why are we not enforcing the gag order?
Known liar Mike Johnson, Byron Donalds, Cory Mills, Doug Burgum & Vivek Ramaswamy hang around lower Manhattan to be trumps gag order gangsters.
Gag order prohibits trump from making comments about jurors / witnesses and also from causing others to make comments about the case, jury or court staff.

Third-party campaigns can inject new ideas and force major parties to incorporate a wider array of interests.
The minor-party campaigns of Ross Perot in 1992 and Ralph Nader and Pat Buchanan in 2000 are remarkable examples where their campaign increased overall voter turnout.
But lawmakers from the Democratic and Republican parties make the rules – and those rules make it very hard for third parties.

US 'swatting' pranks stoke alarm in election year - Digital Journal
Startled by nighttime pounding on his door, American political strategist Rick Wilson walked out in his underwear to find policemen with guns drawn. TheyAFP (Digital Journal Inc)
Good morning - depending on how much weight you put on the predictive aspects of by-elections, you can interpret this how you wish:
on a low turnout (just on a third of eligible voters cast a ballot) Labour sees a massive swing (third largest in recent by-election history) away from the Conservatives to win Blackpool South
The Greens didn't do well but perhaps the think to watch is Reform UK, very much coming up on the (right) outside against the Tories!
