Thank you NW Great title!

Poor little snowflake pining for his owner. I bet Cruz was really pissed off when someone manage to snap him!

Major Snowflake Champ is an excellent insult for ex-45 et al.

And just as in 2016 the MSM will undoubtedly give him an undeserved and excessive amount of airtime. Hmm

Trump to tell CPAC he is Republican 'presumptive 2024 nominee'.

One of our neighbours have a dog that looks like Snowflake but it's called Guinness.... I have never seen it resemble anywhere close to that colour Grin

Carlson et al have a real problem with Biden going around looking all normal, playing with dogs, accompanied by a wife who actually appears to be fond of him. It could lead saner Republicans to believe maybe the President isn't all bad. It is a sign of panic that they have to attack every evidence of normality, decency etc in case it rubs off on somebody. He's holding hands with his wife - it's not really his wife you know, it's a marriage of convenience, they just happen to share a mutual hobby of eviscerating kittens. He's throwing a stick for a happy dog - sorry, that's the Wrong Sort of dog, at the age of 14 years it's looking distinctly worn round the edges. What's the betting that if the poor old fellow didn't look a bit, er, old they'd decide it was a robot dog, or a ringer, or a vampire dog that kept young on drinking leftover child's blood from its master's rituals?

OK, now he can control the weather? Which isn't really weather, even? Er right. I expect Biden would be quite chuffed to be able to do that.

@ZoeTillman
Just in: SCOTUS has cleared the way for prosecutors in NY to get Trump's tax returns —the court rejected Trump's request to halt lower court rulings that dismissed his challenge to the grand jury subpoena.

Need to check if this is correct, but if so, things are moving along quite nicely.

EveryoneRevealsThemselves · 22/02/2021 14:55

Yep! This seems to be breaking news from multiple sources:
BREAKING: US Supreme Court denies Trump’s request to keep tax records from Manhattan district attorney.

This puts a new New York grand jury on the brink of getting 8 years of Trump’s tax returns and other financial records

Aren't there already a stack of sealed indictments waiting for him too ? Or are they awaiting this ruling ?

apnews.com/article/donald-trump-us-supreme-court-court

The court’s order is a win for Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr., who has been seeking Trump’s tax records since 2019 as part of an investigation. Vance, a Democrat, had subpoenaed the records from the Mazars accounting firm that has long done work for Trump and his businesses. Mazars has said it would comply with the subpoena, but Trump, a Republican, sued to block the records’ release.

Vance’s office had said it would be free to enforce the subpoena and obtain the records in the event the Supreme Court declined to step in and halt the records’ turnover, but it was unclear when that might happen. In a three-word statement, Vance on Monday said only: “The work continues.”

Representatives for Trump did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
