if you didn’t click through on this link, you may have missed the memo from the acting secretary of defense written 2 days before insurrection day.

Still in it looks like. But he’s still got the problem of wanting to make an argument his client doesn’t care about.

Re paying for a lawyer: Maybe in Dershowitz’ case Trump doesn’t have to worry about paying because reasons.
Edit: hmm. From cnn article linked in previous riverman post.
No other attorneys have announced they are working on Trump’s impeachment defense.
So maybe Dershowitz never actually signed up for this. Trump will definitely have some clown ready to go. No way he passes up a chance to spew to a national audience.
He is not even going to mount a defense. And he will still get 45 votes. The country is completely broken.
Anyone still confused how the Holocaust happened? We have 50 million people, at least, who can’t wait to participate. Human beings suck. Way to go Zuck.
If there’s one thing MAGA taught me, it’s that a lot of Germans hated Hitler. There’s just something about the human condition where one group of people become fanatical and you need to do everything in your power to make sure they don’t become national leaders. Because that’s when really bad shit happens.
It’s startling to think Qanon people look at us like we are the crazy ones. Right now there’s a guy telling his buddy over a beer “Dude, it’s so obvious Trump and Biden switched faces. Trump is still the president. How do you not see this?”
John Weaver, a longtime G.O.P. operative who advised John McCain and John Kasich, made sexual overtures to young men, sometimes offering to help them get work in politics.
Just underlines that right-wingers can’t meme - or make comedy of any form because of their complete lack of a sense of humour etc.
Wrong picture George - it’s sort of the whole point of the “shouting” thing - this is the image to use next time
Man, Don Jr. is painfully stupid. I kind of feel sorry for him. Such a pointless life to lead.
Truly insane. GOP is a terrorist organization.

Miller should be found guilty and executed. Fuck him.

He’s not wrong, but nothing matters. Trump is getting acquitted no matter what.
I know I’ve said a bunch of times Trump is acquitted even with no attorney, but we can take it even farther than that. Let’s say some attorney has the bright idea to tank Trumps defense. He volunteers his services to Trump. Makes exactly this argument and a bunch of other shitty ones. Basically his whole defense is just more justification to convict Trump. It doesn’t matter. Trump still gets off.
The whole thing is a pointless exercise. Don’t get me wrong, it must be done, but whether Trump has the best defense, no defense, or even a defense that actively undermines his claim of innocence doesn’t matter at all. He is winning no matter what.
Love when Twitterheads act like they’ve uncovered some great hidden “aha” moment.
The dude tweeted “this is what you get when you steal an election.” Of course he thinks it was justified!

Does he also think it was Antifa that was responsible? I hear that’s a popular combination of beliefs.
This is bullshit conspiratarding. SecDef wrote that letter because those parameters on military deployment in DC were precisely what the DC Mayor asked for. See for yourself.
DC Guard were there for logistical support only, that’s why they were deployed without armaments.
MSPs will be asked to vote this week on whether the Scottish Government should pursue an Unexplained Wealth Order (UWO) to investigate the source of financing for Donald Trump’s Scottish resorts.
