    Da sind wir uns ja dann ausnahmsweise mal einig. Bin weder Politiker, noch Sympatisant der #cdu, aber der Zustand der Regierung von #merz ist unterirdisch.

    Seit den Beleidigungen linksgrün-versiffter auf Tassensuche ist die Politik der Union ein einziges Fiasko!
    P.S. Meine Töchter sehen das übrigens auch so, musste gar nicht erst fragen 🌈🏳️‍🌈🥳

  12. In #HunterBiden’s trial, jury selection highlights #UnitedStates’ drug epidemic
    
The nation’s political divisions were also laid bare as 6 men & 6 women were chosen….

#JurySelection for the trial of #POTUS #Biden’s son Hunter turned into an impromptu but painful indictment of the nation’s drug epidemic, w/person after person telling the court of their loved ones’ battles w/ #addiction.

  13. The judge overseeing the #HunterBiden case is nearly done w/ #JurySelection, having narrowed the field down to 32 potential candidates, from which defense lawyers & prosecutors will use peremptory challenges to end up w/a dozen #jurors & 4 alternates. It is increasingly likely that jury selection, which began Monday morning, will finish by the afternoon.

  14. A man set himself on fire on Friday afternoon near the Lower Manhattan #courthouse where #JurySelection continued in the #criminal #trial of #Trump.

    The man doused himself w/a liquid around 1:35PM ET in Collect Pond Park, across the street from the courthouse. Onlookers screamed as bright orange flames engulfed the man. It was unclear what motivated his action.

  15. So that was definitely more important than monitoring #TrumpTrial #JurySelection.
    For sure.

  16. The prospective #jurors left for the lawyers discussion, some may be brought back in for individual interviews. The defense & the prosecution may both seek to strike jurors "for cause." If they can't do so, they will use their limited number of peremptory challenges, which allow them to excuse jurors w/o a reason.

    Those who survive challenges will be seated on the jury unless this process has given them the concerns articulated above.

  17. #Trump's lawyer, Susan Necheles, confronted many prospective #jurors about their #socialmedia activity, clearly the lawyers know things about them, a lot of which was not stuff they were asked in open court. They clearly have people doing deep dives on these people. It’d be pretty hard to not have concerns that their identities will be *leaked*

  22. Another prospective juror interviewed by Necheles, says she is very "centrist." She says she appreciates #democracy & a diversity of #political opinion. But, says, "I really don't think this case is about my #personal politics, this case is ultimately about the #evidence & the #facts presented." She concludes by saying that her family background "comes from #totalitarian regimes," & that bc of that, she believes in "innocent until proven guilty."

  23. The latter prospective juror's voice reportedly shook as she basically insulted Trump. She says of his personality: “It's not my cup of tea”

    [I’d probably be less diplomatic]

    #Trump is staring at her from the defense table.

  28. Necheles is all but cross-examining certain prospective jurors about their #socialmedia posts & #personal info.

    One juror said she fiercely disagrees w/ #Trump politically but has no feelings personally.

    Necheles asked if the prospective juror's husband had written a ‘book opinion’ about Trump. The juror said that her husband does write book reviews.

    (Sheesh)

  30. #Trump will likely be pleased w/Necheles's #VoirDire. She questioned the #credibility of those who are expected to testify against Trump, & made a reference to #MichaelCohen, suggesting that some #witnesses might want to seek “revenge” (the title of a Cohen books) on Trump. Cohen’s book is specifically named on the questionnaire.

    Trump gives the hairy eyeball to jurors when Necheles suggests that a witness may be lying if they change the details of their story.

    #law #JurySelection #TrumpTrial

  31. Steinglass wrapped up by asking whether any of the 18 prospective jurors would have trouble finding #Trump #guilty if prosecution proves its case. He asks each individually. Not one expresses any concerns about doing so.

    Susan Necheles, defense, is up. She begins by saying she has “the honor of representing President Trump."🤮

    This could backfire if any prospective jurors are irked by hearing Trump referred to in the “dear leader” way he insists.

    #criminal #law #JurySelection #TrumpTrial

  32. Steinglass explains the concept of “accessorial liability.” He uses the same analogy he did on Tues: a husband hiring a hitman to murder his wife, he asks prospective #jurors if they would understand the husband to be #guilty of the #crime. Today, though, the #defense lawyers object. #Merchan overrules, & the hitman question stands.

    Steinglass managed to compare #Trump coordinating the falsification of docs w/a husband putting out a hit on his wife.

    #criminal #law #JurySelection #TrumpTrial

  33. “We’re going to ask you to be patient as we walk you through all those documents in what sometimes may seem like excruciating detail.”
    
The potential jurors, called on individually by Steinglass, said they could do that.

    #Trump is reportedly staring intently at the jury box as the #VoirDire goes on. He (again) shakes his head as Steinglass references someone being “criminally liable” for the acts of others.

  34. Meanwhile, another prospective juror who had earlier said he had strong feelings about how the #criminal justice system has treated #Trump has now said he “misinterpreted” the question & has no such beliefs.
