NEW YORK — The judge presiding over Donald Trump’s hush money trial has fined him $1,000 for violating his gag order and sternly warned the former president that additional violation could result in jail time. The
fine marks the second sanction for Trump for inflammatory comments about witnesses since the start of the trial last month. He was fined $9,000 last week for nine violations. Judge Juan M. Merchan warned Monday that additional gag order violations could potentially result in jail time, though he said that was “the last thing I want to do.” Prosecutors in Trump’s hush money trial...

Judge Juan Merchan fined former President Donald Trump $9,000 Tuesday and held him in contempt for violating his gag order, warning he may impose jail time for future violations. Merchan

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy of Ukraine warned in an interview that Russian influence had pierced the American political system and rejected the idea, backed by allies of Donald Trump, that Ukraine could swiftly end the war just by making massive territorial concessions. But
Zelenskyy said Tuesday that he had privately urged Trump through intermediaries to travel to Ukraine and that Trump had expressed interest but had not yet committed to making a trip. Zelenskyy said he was open to hearing Trump’s proposals for the war, while making clear he was highly skeptical. “If the deal is that we just give up...

DNC Activist Warns Democrats to Stop Registering Young Voters, "They're Gonna Vote for Trump"

Conservative Treehouse ^

This is a little funny. The
Washington Post has an article about Democrat data scientist Aaron Strauss, who helps direct progressive spending at the firm OpenLabs, warning his peers that registering young people to vote, young people of color specifically, is helping Donald Trump. The data shows that when Democrats help register young voters, they end up registering people who will vote for Trump. Now they are considering not even holding voter registration drives in target markets because they align with Trump.

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis (D) warned that the “train is coming” in her prosecution of former President Trump in his election interference case, despite efforts to slow down the case amid the discovery of her once-romantic relationship with a former special prosecutor. Willis,
who avoided being disqualified from the case after appointing her former boyfriend to work it, said the weeks-long process detailing her relationship didn’t derail the main case because her team “has been continuing to work.”

MSNBC's Symone Sanders Warns: If Trump Wins, Women Will Dress Like Handmaids

Say what you might about Donald Trump, but one thing he is not is a Puritan. This is the man whose romantic escapades filled the pages of New York tabloids for decades. For
gosh sakes, Trump's the former owner of the Miss Universe and Miss USA pageants, where contestants paraded in swimsuits! So Symone Sanders-Townsend's attempt to scare voters by claiming that if Trump is elected, America will be turned into a dystopian world in which women are forced to wear long, loose dresses, and cover their hair with hoods, was ludicrous: "If people are not paying attention, and we...

Democratic presidential candidate and Minnesota Congressman Dean Phillips reasserted on X over the weekend that he would not pursue a third party bid for the presidency as it would help Republican Donald Trump.

January but then hinted at being open to a joint campaign with Republican Nikki Haley in a radio interview last week. “I think it’s a conversation that Ambassador Haley and I should have if that’s what this comes down to,” Phillips said to WCCO on Thursday when asked...

Outgoing Dutch prime minister Mark Rutte is imploring Europeans to "stop whining" about Donald Trump and focus on supporting Ukraine. "We should stop moaning and whining and nagging about Trump," Rutte said during the Munich Security Conference, according to Reuters. He didn't say who he would prefer as president in 2024, but
said, "It's up to the Americans. I'm not an American, I cannot vote in the U.S. We have to work with whoever is on the dance floor." While Rutte will be exiting his role as prime minister soon, he is the leading candidate to be the next secretary-general...

As US allies reel from Donald Trump’s weekend comments encouraging Russia to attack European allies if they don’t meet NATO budget contribution goals, multiple former Trump advisers warn in my upcoming book that the former president will seek to formally withdraw the US from the NATO alliance if he wins a second
term. In “The Return of Great Powers”, which will be published March 12, a former senior US official, who served in both the Trump and Biden administrations at a high level, told me that if Trump defeats President Joe Biden in November “the US will be out of...

The Hill ^

An adviser to former President Clinton warned Sunday that President Biden must broaden his appeal to 2024 voters instead of just focusing on attacks against former President Trump if he wants to be reelected. Doug
Sosnik, a senior adviser to Clinton, compared the 2024 election to 1980 in a New York Times op-ed, with Biden being former President Carter and Trump former President Ronald Reagan. Sosnik pointed out that both Carter and Biden had trouble winning over voters, and warned that Biden may need to switch strategies to win. Biden has spent much of his 2024 reelection campaign focused on...

Switzerland. In doing so he added his voice to the swelling chorus from Europe that fears a Trump return to the world stage.

Donald Trump urged the Republican party to unite behind him so he could 'take the country' back from Joe Biden after decimating his rivals in the Iowa caucuses on Monday night. The
former president, 77, praised all of his fellow candidates and paid tribute to his family - including Melania's late mother-in-law - as he spoke to supporters after his 30-point win in the first primary contest. It took just half an hour for Trump's landslide victory to be called as thousands of his die-hard supporters turned up to vote in sub-zero temperatures and wind chills as low as minus...

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) issued a warning to states moving to keep former President Trump off the presidential ballot, saying the House of Representatives has the final say over whether electors from those states are certified on Jan. 6, 2025. “Maine,
Colorado, and other states that might try to bureaucratically deny ballot access to any Republican nominee should remember the U.S. House of Representatives is the ultimate arbiter of whether to certify electors from those states,” Massie posted Friday on X, formerly Twitter. Billionaire Elon Musk, owner of X, replied to Massie’s tweet about certification: “Interesting.” Trump was declared ineligible...
