Dear God, More Classified Docs Were Found AFTER FBI Search
Court documents revealed on Tuesday that former President Donald Trump’s lawyers found additional classified documents in his bedroom some four months after the FBI raided Mar-a-Lago to retrieve documents. The FBI searched Trump’s residence in August of 2022 after his lawyers gave a certified letter to authorities claiming there were no more documents on the property, despite the National Archives still asking for specific materials to be returned.

Trump Doesn't Testify. I'm SHOCKED!!!

Former President Trump will not take the stand in his own defense during his New York criminal trial, after his attorneys rested their case Tuesday, shortly after prosecutors did the same the day before.

“We’ll be resting pretty quickly — resting meaning resting the case. I won’t be resting,” Trump said outside the courtroom Tuesday morning. “I don’t rest. I’d like to rest sometimes, but I don’t get to rest.”

So, Trump was too chicksh-t to testify. - Stephen King

Georgia quarterback Jaden Rashada has filed a lawsuit against Florida’s coach and boosters for their alleged role in a $13 million NIL deal falling through.

According to the lawsuit, Rashada was convinced by coach Billy Napier, top booster Hugh Hathcock, and former staffer Marcus Castro-Walker, to turn down a $9.5 million offer from Miami. Hathcock allegedly told Rashada that he could get “whatever Jaden needed” to convince him to commit to Florida. During a recruiting visit, Rashada’s father was even told he could get a job in the security industry if his son played there.

And at a time when our public schools are growing more segregated, let’s remember that our work isn’t done until every child can get an education worthy of their promise. - Barack Obama
