Trump Organization executive surrenders to face charges in tax investigation
Allen Weisselberg prepares to face charges in tax-related investigation at pivotal moment for ex-president
Well first indictments made to his organisation and CFO. Although not Trump personally yet.
Not surprising its how they build a case against the top dog, do deal with all the underlings for further evidence.Trump Organization executive surrenders to face charges in tax investigation

Its depressing the amount of people who are not Tory leaning at all are taking glee in the prospect of them winning in Batley and Spen. As much as I didn't like Corbyn I never wanted him to lose against Tories.
Will be an interesting result either way, how much genuine swing of Lab to Tory (or vice versa) and how much is caused by a split vote.

Batley and Spen: Labour narrowly hold seat in by-election
The result means Kim Leadbeater will represent the seat previously held by her murdered sister Jo Cox.

Can't belive the amount of people who voted for Galloway. Makes the result meaningless to read into on a national sense. As all parties involved last time dropped their share more from Labour but you would expect that to a Galloway party.Batley and Spen: Labour narrowly hold seat in by-election

Can only think that it's a throwaway vote.

Apparently ran a very pro-Palestine campaign which was very popular with the Muslim community
Bizarre how people like him can run a "Labour are controlled by Israel" theme, while the Tories run a "Labour are anti-semetic" theme and both are believed
Yeah its what he's done before or similar he lasts one term in these constituencies complete fails them as an MP, keeps his gravy train going and then get booted out at next opportunity.
At least this time he didn't win.

"A day in the Life of Sue Republican.
Sue gets up at 6 a.m. and fills her coffeepot with water to prepare her morning coffee. The water is clean and good because some tree-hugging liberal fought for minimum water-quality standards.
With her first swallow of coffee, she takes her daily medication. Her medications are safe to take because some stupid commie liberal fought to insure their safety and that they work as advertised.
All but $10 of her medications are paid for by her employer's medical plan because some liberal union workers fought their employers for paid medical insurance - now Sue gets it too.
She prepares her morning breakfast, bacon and eggs. Sue's bacon is safe to eat because some girly-man liberal fought for laws to regulate the meat packing industry.
In the shower, Sue reaches for her shampoo. Her bottle is properly labeled with each ingredient and its amount in the total contents because some crybaby liberal fought for her right to know what she was putting on her body and how much it contained.
Sue dresses, walks outside and takes a deep breath. The air she breathes is clean because some environmentalist wacko liberal fought for laws to stop industries from polluting our air.
She walks to the subway station for her government-subsidized ride to work. It saves her considerable money in parking and transportation fees because some fancy-pants liberal fought for affordable public transportation, which gives everyone the opportunity to be a contributor.
Sue begins her work day. She has a good job with excellent pay, medical benefits, retirement, paid holidays and vacation because some lazy liberal union members fought and died for these working standards. Sue's employer pays these standards because Sue's employer doesn't want his employees to call the union.
If Sue is hurt on the job or becomes unemployed, she'll get a worker compensation or unemployment check because some stupid liberal didn't think she should lose her home because of her temporary misfortune.
It's noon and Sue needs to make a bank deposit so she can pay some bills. Sue's deposit is federally insured by the FSLIC because some godless liberal wanted to protect Sue's money from unscrupulous bankers who ruined the banking system before the Great Depression.
Sue has to pay her Fannie Mae-underwritten mortgage and her below-market federal student loan because some elitist liberal decided that Sue and the government would be better off if she was educated and earned more money over her lifetime.
Sue is home from work. She plans to visit her father this evening at his farm home in the country. She gets in her car for the drive. Her car is among the safest in the world because some America-hating liberal fought for car safety standards.
She arrives at her childhood home. Her generation was the third to live in the house financed by Farmers' Home Administration because bankers didn't want to make rural loans. The house didn't have electricity until some big-government liberal stuck his nose where it didn't belong and demanded rural electrification.
She is happy to see her father, who is now retired. Her father lives on Social Security and a union pension because some wine-drinking, cheese-eating liberal made sure he could take care of himself so Sue wouldn't have to.
Sue gets back in her car for the ride home, and turns on a radio talk show. The radio host keeps saying that liberals are bad and conservatives are good. He doesn't mention that Republicans have fought against every protection and benefit Sue enjoys throughout her day. Sue agrees: "We don't need those big-government liberals ruining our lives! After all, I'm self-made and believe everyone should take care of themselves, just like I have."

The new circus comes to town: fiery support for Donald Trump at rain-soaked Florida rally
Fireworks, a Trump impersonator and undying belief in the former president at his second rally after leaving office
Regardless of how much of the hypocrisy pointed out to these Trump supporters, they don't care. It's identity politics at play and as long as they identify with Trump and his brand, plus that he is standing up for them and more importantly their way of life they will continue to support him come what may. And he'll continue to fleece them as a result. Identity literally Trumps any kind of logic.
