All in the Timing…

NY Trump Trial Ketchup: Costello Fails, Trump Bails, Defense Rests: ‘BradCast’ 5/22/2024
How many times did the disgraced, twice-impeached, four-time criminally indicted former President tell us he would “absolutely” be taking the oath to testify in his own defense at his 2016 election interference trial in New York?

The attack reportedly went on for nearly four hours before the LAPD moved in, not to stop […]
