Which would you rather have, anonymous sources from CNN, or flat-out lies from Donald Trump? My answer? Neither.

I don't know if that Sunday post by or attributed to Trump is a problem. We'll see how Judge Chutkan responds, if she responds at all. Will she deem it inflammatory or harmful to the proceedings? She said she will be monitoring his public statements. All we can do is wait to see what, if...

These are the unsourced news items I ignore. "people familiar with the matter, "sources tell CNN," "according to text messages obtained by CNN," "multiple sources told CNN. When I see phrases like that, I seldom read the rest of the story and I put no credence in it. Without named sources, we...

I don't understand your question. What/who are you taking about?

More of the same. This is the 3rd or 4th time that deadline has been extended because the merger attempts fail, because investors are shying away. If it is true that Trump will resume posting on Twitter, that will be a major blow to Truth Social which makes it even less likely that investors...

Trump Tucks Tail When Judge Shows Teeth Trump is bashing Fani Willis on Truth Social this morning but not a word about Jack Smith, Judge Chutkan or others involved in that case. As Trump complies with Chutkan's order, look for the judge(s) in the Georgia indictments to follow Chutkan's lead.

I was thinking it might mean Trump is walking away from Truth Social now that he is no longer bound by a contract to post first on Truth Social, and that Truth Social is a financial failure. I don't know that will happen. We'll have to wait and see. But the possibility certainly exists.

What does that mean for Truth Social?

Some Were Wrong About Trump When Judge Chutkan laid down the law (so to speak) about what Trump can and cannot say about the case before her and the people associated with this case, some commentators on the cable TV news shows predicted Trump could not go 24 hours without violating the judge's...

Point taken. You are correct. Some leakers intend to do exactly as you suggest. I was speaking more about the effect of leaks on me, which I try to keep to zero. Here on EO, you will almost never see me cite a news story that relies on unnamed sources. In my personal reading and news watching, I...

The media often reveal their sources. You see it every day when they quote a person by name, or cite a document that readers can verify.

You can entertain yourself with leaks all you want. Go ahead and make up all the stories you wish to explain the unexplainable. Personally, I rarely waste my time on them. I am never puzzled about who is leaking because I don't care. Being patient, I'm happy to sit back and wait for the truth...

I have not commented about this before but let me do so now. There is much talk in this forum about leaks from DOJ. The problem I have with that is the blanket assumption that all leaks are from the DOJ all the time. In many cases, the "people familiar with the matter" who are quoted in many...

Per Google Bard: "Judge Tanya Chutkan can sanction someone who is not on Trump's legal team. In her role as a federal judge, she has the authority to impose sanctions on anyone who violates the rules of the court, including witnesses, lawyers, and even members of the public. This includes TV...

Georgia Grand Jury Expected to Indict Trump Next Week All indications are Fulton County DA Fani Willis will present her investigation results to the grand jury next week. An indictment of Trump and others is expected. After years of speculation, we'll finally learn what the Georgia case...

I don't know the answer to your question. The judge was very clear regarding witnesses and jurors. Her statements were more general regarding other aspects of the proceedings. The judge did say this: “Even arguably ambiguous statements from parties or their counsel, if they can be reasonably...

That's Waters and Cain. My question was about Trump. What has he said since the judge's order and instructions were given?

Just Curious I'm not on Truth Social. Since yesterday's hearing in Judge Chutkan's court, what, if anything, has Trump said on Truth Social, or anywhere else, about Judge Chutkan, the Trump case in her court, Jack Smith, Mike Pence (witness), the DOJ, or related matters? How long do you think...

Irrelevant. The paper discusses in detail why Section Three applies.
