Liberals will be tearing what’s left of their hair out even more this morning as Judge Juan Merchan just granted President-elect Trump’s request to file a motion to dismiss the charges in the Stormy Daniels’ ‘hush money’ case and removed the sentencing date for the president-elect from the schedule.

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D) is opposing that request. Instead, Bragg floated that Merchan could freeze the proceedings while Trump is in office, meaning the conviction would remain on the books but sentencing wouldn’t occur until 2029, at the earliest.

Merchan ordered Trump to file his formal motion asking for dismissal by Dec. 2 and Bragg to respond by Dec. 9.

Merchan also confirmed the stay in sentencing for Trump, which was requested by both Trump and Bragg attorneys.

The sentencing was scheduled for Nov. 26, but on Friday, Merchan said that date “is adjourned.”

The judge will then decide how to proceed.

In a letter to Merchan on Wednesday, Trump defense attorney and now-nominee for Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche demanded the case against President-elect Donald Trump be tossed.

“On November 5, 2024, the Nation’s People issued a mandate that supersedes the political motivations of DANY’s ‘People,’” Blanche wrote.

“This case must be immediately dismissed.”

Blanche said that “immediate dismissal of this case is mandated by the federal Constitution, the Presidential Transition Act of 1963, and the interests of justice, in order to facilitate the orderly transition of Executive power following President Trump’s overwhelming victory in the 2024 Presidential Election.”

Trump’s imminent return to the White House has already pumped the brakes on his other criminal prosecutions.

Donald Trump to kick all transgender people out of US military
November 25, 2024
Donald Trump is reportedly planning to issue an executive order that would ban transgender individuals from serving in the U.S. military, potentially as early as his first day back in office. The proposed order, expected after his inauguration on January 20, would also mandate the medical discharge of thousands of currently serving transgender personnel. According to The Times, defense officials estimate that around 15,000 transgender service members could be medically discharged under this policy, effectively labeling them unfit for duty. This aligns with Trump’s ongoing criticism of what he calls “woke” military policies, which he argues prioritize diversity and inclusion over operational readiness. A source quoted by The Times remarked that transgender personnel will be “forced out at a time when the military can’t recruit enough people.” They also noted that only the Marine Corps is currently meeting recruitment goals and emphasized that some of those targeted by the policy hold senior positions in the armed forces. The report coincides with Trump’s nomination of Pete Hegseth, a former U.S. National Guard major and Fox News host, as his defense… […]
Romanian Presidential Election: Populist Candidate Wins First Round
November 25, 2024
Calin Georgescu primarily campaigned through videos on TikTok, criticizing the European Union, NATO, and the Romanian political establishment. Calin Georgescu, an independent right-wing populist candidate who campaigned primarily on TikTok, won the first round of Romania’s presidential election on Nov. 25. Georgescu, 62, and Elena Lasconi, leader of the opposition center-right Save Romania Party, advanced to the second round set for Dec. 8. Marcel Ciolacu, the current prime minister from the ruling Social Democrat Party (PSD), came in third and missed out on the run-off. George Simion, a right-wing nationalist from the Alliance for the Unity of Romanians (AUR), finished in fourth place, with nine other candidates also competing in the field. Romania’s Central Election Bureau reported that 9.4 million people cast ballots, representing a turnout of 52.4 percent. Georgescu campaigned against NATO and the European Union. In a 2021 interview, he referred to NATO’s ballistic missile defense shield, located in the Romanian town of Deveselu, as a “shame of diplomacy.” […]

A Modest Proposal for California and Other States That DON’T KNOW HOW TO COUNT VOTES – Twitchy
November 25, 2024
If you are like me, you enjoy Calvin and Hobbes, hockey, dogs, and alternative music from the 80s and 90s. No, but seriously, if you are like me, you are getting pretty sick of blue states in America that take longer to count votes than Halley’s Comet does in between appearances above our night sky. This weekend, a tweet from Elon Musk (and Newsweek magazine) put California’s failure in stark relief. India counted 640 million votes in 1 day. California is still counting votes 🤦‍♂️ https://t.co/ai8JmWxas6 — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) November 24, 2024 California had approximately 16 million voters in the 2024 election. Some of those voters might have even been citizens of the state, but, of course, that is impossible to tell since Governor Gavin Newsom and the state legislature have outlawed voter ID. It is now 19 days after the election and California is still counting those 16 million. (Or finding suitcases full of ballots to count, at least.) Recommended Everyone knows what they are doing. They are going to keep the election going until the candidate they want to… Read the full article here […]
No Wake for the Woke
November 25, 2024
Democrats will learn nothing from their electoral drubbing. If they were capable of self-reflection and intellectual growth, they would not need “safe spaces” or social media platforms dedicated to mass censorship. When you are so afraid of dissent that you feel psychologically compelled to label all contrary opinions as “hate speech,” you are not a fully functioning adult willing to process new information and adapt accordingly. You are a toddler whose reflexive instinct is to cry, scream, and call everyone a “poopy head” when you don’t get your way. We have seen the “poopy head” routine play out on cable television for weeks. Democrat operatives tell their dwindling viewing audience that they lost the election because of “disinformation,” racism, and misogyny. Americans are just too “stupid” and “deplorable” to be trusted with the vote. The country is a MAGA junkyard filled with “garbage” human beings. The hyperventilating harpies of The View insist that Kamala Harris ran a “perfect campaign.” If anyone is to blame for her loss, the formaldehyde femmes explain, it is the news media. “Journalists”… Read the full article here […]
‘Right Now Is the Most Dangerous Time’: Major Potential Trump Pick Sounds Alarm on Transition Period
November 25, 2024
(WND)—Kash Patel, the former Department of Defense chief of staff who is reportedly on President-elect Donald Trump’s short list to be the next director of the FBI, is now sounding the alarm about the current time period before Trump is inaugurated, leaving Joe Biden and the Deep State in charge. “Right now is, I think in my opinion, the most dangerous time, the sort of lame duck period where the president is not acting in the capability that needs to defend this nation,” Patel told Maria Bartiromo on “Sunday Morning Futures” on the Fox News Channel. “And what we need to do is have our leaders of the agencies and departments that were confirmed by the Senate show up and do their job and tell the Senate and the House of Representatives these are our failures, these are our weaknesses, we need help, we need you to respond the in this time of need. And those guys not showing up to the Hill and just deflecting their responsibility shows us how much more danger we’re in,” he continued. “We know what President Trump’s gonna do, but he’s 54 days away from taking the oath of office. Right now, we need the United States of America to remind those agencies… Read the full article here […]
THE DELUSION CONTINUES – DEMOCRATS ARE FREAKED! Da Nang Dick Wants to Put Constraints on Insurrection Act Before Trump Enters Office (VIDEO) | The Gat…
November 25, 2024
Leftists torch Washington DC during the George Floyd protests in Washington DC during the Summer of Love 2020. Democrats are completely freaked out that President Trump is going to turn the military on the American people once he comes back into power. ‘Da Nang Dick’ Blumenthal told MSNBC on Sunday that he is going to introduce a bill to attempt to put constraints on President Trump’s use of the military here at home and how he interprets the Insurrection Act. It’s as if President Trump was never Commander in Chief for four years. These people are living in a massive delusion. Creepy “Da Nang Dick” Blumenthal (D-Conn.) is most famous for faking his Vietnam War service and lying about being the captain of the Harvard Swim Team. Da Nang Dick has been called out by Medal of Honor recipients in the past. On Sunday Senator Blumenthal explained why he wants to change the laws before Trump enters office. Da Nang Dick Blumenthal wants to change the Insurrection Act before Trump enters the White House.

Tea Party Patriots Action Survey Shows Strong Support for DOGE
November 25, 2024
There is strong support for the soon-to-be formed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), led by Tesla CEO and X owner Elon Musk and entrepreneur and former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, a McLaughlin & Associates survey taken on behalf of Tea Party Patriots Action (TPPA), found. The survey results, first obtained by Breitbart News, asked respondents if they “support or oppose a Department of Government Efficiency whose sole purpose is to audit the government for inefficiencies and to instruct Congress on adjusting the federal budget to reduce costs and eliminate redundancy, unnecessary programs, and unnecessary services.” There is overwhelming support: 71 percent across the board said they support DOGE. Of those, 40 percent said they “strongly” support it, followed by 31 percent who “somewhat” support it. Just 16 percent said they oppose DOGE, and of those, only six percent “strongly” oppose it, while ten percent “somewhat” oppose it. It should be noted that there is bipartisan support for this venture, as 79 percent of Republicans, 64 percent of Democrats, and 68 percent of independents support the creation of DOGE.
