Though I don't disagree with the judge's comments, I find it interesting that he would throw the defense such a bone - "Hey, here's something you can use for your appeal should your case go south. Good luck!"

An appeal will be a year from now. By then nobody will remember or care.

There you go again, being all practical.

The Chairwoman of the House Financial Services Committee is demanding violence from the mob because the judicial branch of government can't deliver justice.

The judge doesn't like that.

Scuttlebutt is that a serious number of Democrats are beyond pissed with what Waters said.

Minority Leader McCarthy is looking at getting her censured, and with a 2 vote swing from the Democrats, he might just get it.

[Doctor Phibes]

She shouldn't be in Congress after saying that.

"Convict, or else" is not an incitement, if you ask Speaker Pelosi.

But she's not the first Democrat to threaten violence, is she Senator Schumer?

It's hard to take their protestations about Trump's awful behaviour seriously when they pull this kind of stuff, and I happen to think that what Trump did should also preclude him from running for President again.

These people are undermining both the justice system and the democratic process.

Biden has said 'the evidence looks overwhelming', and he's 'praying for the right outcome'.

Politicians should really learn to STFU about ongoing court cases.

I have to think that is exactly what they are after.

I think they're playing to their base, just as Trump was.

Biden has said 'the evidence looks overwhelming', and he's 'praying for the right outcome'.

I think his actual words were "The case is overwhelming." Slightly different.

President Joe Biden said Tuesday he was “praying the verdict is the right verdict” in the trial of former Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin. He said he believed the case, which has gone to the jury and put the nation on edge, was “overwhelming.”

Also his handlers he had the good sense to not say anything until after the jury was sequestered.

Apparently Ms. Waters has always been this way

Her gender and tint have always protected her

And this will probably continue

Yes, what he said wasn't as bad as Waters, but still, he's the freaking boss. He really ought to let the process play out.

The verdict is in. That was awfully fast.
