All the idiots that THOUGHT the Manhattan DA’s criminal case and conviction was NOTHING can now eat your hats….
The ex-President HAS been put in place he doesn’t like and is trying to get his way out…..

Donald Trump makes his first visit to Capitol Hill since leaving the presidency Thursday morning, meeting with Republican lawmakers in what is being billed as a resolutely forward-looking session focused on a potential 2025 legislative agenda.

Wednesday’s contempt vote against Attorney General Merrick Garland squeaked by only after an intense whipping effort. And now a series of proposals targeting what Republicans call “rogue prosecutors” (i.e., those investigating Trump) appear to have a wobbly future….
