The House passed that as well. The Speaker advanced that. Fox News calls this "taking us to WW III".

Tomorrow we get back to the Trump hush money trial in NY. I'll be here to keep everyone apprised of what is going on. If you aren't a true MAGA supporter I'll give you the gist of what is happening in NY.

So, today judge Merchan held Trump in contempt and fined him $9,000. He also said that any more violations of his gag order will result in jail time. There are four more violations of the gag order that will be revisited on Thursday. Testimony will resume today.
Since the defense has opted to not stipulate to anything, Phillip Thompson, a court reporter in the E. Jean Carrol cases is testifying that Trump's words in that trial was unaltered and shows exactly what Donald Trump said.
Now, Keith Davidson, attorney for Karen McDougal and Stormy Daniels is testifying to his role in getting $150,000 for McDougal and, in October, 2016, acquiring $130,000 Daniels. Davidson is now testifying that he reached out to Dylan Howard, David Pecker's editor, about a "blockbuster story about Karen McDougal". The trial has been suspended for lunch during which Trump deleted the posts to his truth social that judge Merchand said violated his orders.
Testimony has now started to continue with Keith Davidson stating that Karen McDougal's story was about a ten month affair with Donald Trump. Now the prosecution is asking about Stephanie Clifford, aka Stormy Daniels. Most of Ms. Clifford's deals were handled by her manger. The prosecution is going through text messages with Davidson about these. These include suppression of the Stormy Daniels' story especially after the Access Hollywood film release and the necessity to keep all this quiet just prior to the 2016 election date. Howard to Davidson, "Trump is f@cked."
Davidson has now testified that Trump and Daniels used pseudonyms for each party including the real name of Davidson's former classmate.
The trial has ended for the day. Transcripts have yet to be released.

Turns out that this was not because of the protesters. It was counter-protesters that attacked the peaceful protesters there. The police were called and they didn't intervene for several hours. This made the counter-protesters who had stopped their attack to reengage their attacks.

Looks like the 1864 Arizona law that the appointed SC ruled as the law is getting overturned and will be signed into law. Unfortunately for women there, a 90 day delay after the legislature there goes home at the end on July will ensue. This is not a good look for Republicans there. That same law said the age of consent to sexual activity for girls was 10 years of age.
Well, the Arizona state Senate just upheld the 1864 law. So, this becomes a real issue in that state this year.
There's an article in the Washington Post today about Florida's newest abortion ban. Seems that when Ron DeSantis signed the law that prohibited abortions to 15 weeks he signed it at a church in Orlando. This 6 week ban he signed behind closed doors. Pro-Choice advocates started getting a ballot initiative to get at least 24 weeks back into the state's constitution. This whole business about fetal heart beats is pure nonsense as at even 6 weeks that heart is nothing more than a tube of cells and doesn't resemble a human heart at all. But, that was never their point. The fetal heart beat was just a way to engage antiabortionists to their cause. Now, it's on the ballot this November and may actually get enshrined in their constitution. Democrats also see this as an advantage to run their opponents in that state. While here in Washington state the GOP is running the most MAGA Republican they could find, overlooking a more moderate candidate that is going to run regardless. Jay Inslee has decided not to run for a forth term while we are close to a super majority in both legislatures.
