Thank goodness for that. I wonder how long this nonsense is going to delay the whole process, but not so long if there's a choice of people to do it.

Hang on: who appoints this Special Master? If it's Trump, he'll be dead before he gets round to it.

"Trump tried to pay off $2million he owed a lawyer with a horse"

The judge in the case has asked for nominations from both sides with a deadline, then will select one to her liking.

And she is very obviously biased in Trump's favour. This could be fun.

Still out in the wilds but heard the news about HM.

My condolences to all on this thread affected by this sad event.

Thank you, Across.

I'm very sad, despite it being so completely unexpected.

I'm expecting a rise in trollery and disruptive activity to try to take advantage of an inherently disruptive moment. I hope we as a nation land safely after it.

God save the King.

I can't really do better than write "what she said" here.

I wonder what name he will choose to reign under; Liz Truss confidently referred to him as Charles III, but I am not convinced.

Oh gosh. What a time for a typo.

so not completely unexpected

It has been confirmed that he will be Charles III

Thank you across.

I'm not grieving like some maybe but I respect her duty of service wholeheartedly.

However, I wonder about the future and where and how this might impact GB

I just came across the footage of Trump's poorly attended rally, fascism in plain sight.

Shocking but not surprising.

I saw a clip of it too. It was horrific, really horrific. I actually think TFG is unhinged and will just say anything to keep some adoring fans.
He needs locking up.

Just in per cnn. NY AG has filed a civil fraud lawsuit naming Doofus + kids as respondents. To my knowledge all other suits are against the various businesses. Breaking story.

Oh please let the mud stick this time. He has wriggled out of hundreds of lawsuits, let that not be this one

Across Do hope your DH is doing OK.

Various sources on twitter say that she is also making criminal referrals for Donald Trump, Don Jr, Eric Trump, Ivanka Trump and the Trump Organization to the IRS criminal division and U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of NY

Yes, that is true. But I don't know if it's an actual criminal referral or if it's just "Hey, y'all may wanna look at this pile of steaming poo. May be something in there you can use".

From your keyboard to God's monitor!

DH doing great! We're in Grand Teton Natl Park, WY. Last leg of a 7 week RV trip and he's having a ball. Lots of work for him setting up and breaking down and no problems.

That's really good to hear about your DH!

A 7week RV trip sounds the dogs bollocks! Fantastic.

That is great to hear Across

@Roussette

We love it! Next year we're going to Tennessee for a week then on to Disney World for 11 days. Year after that we're planning on heading to Maine with a side trip to NYC and possibly Boston.

Good Lord willing and the creek don't rise.

We are going to need new thread! The next one, please, is to be full of accounts of various legal matters in several states landing on Trump with a mighty splat, plus the odd interfering with the course of justice charge and a treason indictment or two....

I love that saying! Me and DH have just spent a long weekend in Madrid with 3 American friends of ours we met on a cruise. We've been trying to get together since Covid and met up in Spain. One of them used that phrase, love it!

Phew! Just got a new thread here as the last post!
