Rapidcreek,

An appellate court judge REJECTS yet another attempt by Trump’s legal team to delay the start of his New York criminal trial.

Between lower and appellate court attempts, that’s more than 10 attempts, by the DA’s count.

reddig33,

I guess these lawyers are actually getting paid (by someone).

homesweethomeMrL,

It’s debatable. For his second impeachment trial, trump hired bargain-basement priced lawyers and an intern. See Michael Wolff’s Landslide for lots of details.

I know for formality they have to give a reason for each rejection, but a simple “No” would be great to see.

ChocoboRocket,

Republicans threw out respect, formality, duty, and established processes a long time ago.

With a stacked supreme Court, they are free to flout any law and interpret anything however they chose without consequences.

I fully agree that a “no” is all they deserve, if an explanation is actually required, hit them with “No, illegal”
