Former President Trump and eight co-defendants asked a state appeals court on Friday to review a judge’s ruling allowing Fulton County District Attorney Fani Williams to stay on the election interference case.

“DA Willis has covered herself and her office in scandal and disrepute, as she has squandered her credibility and repeatedly and flagrantly violated the heightened ethical standards demanded of her position,” the appeal states.

New Georgia Voting Rules Approved

The bill also clarifies the grounds for challenging voter eligibility. Voters may be challenged on the grounds of being dead (duh), having voted or registered to vote in a different jurisdiction, having filed property taxes in a different jurisdiction, or listed a non-residential address on their registration. It's unclear what items on that list would be objectionable to the many Democrats who voted against the bill. We obviously can't have dead people voting (which happened multiple times in New York in 2020) and any registration listing a commercial property as an address is suspect.

Democrats attempted to explain their "no" votes by claiming that the law would result in more "baseless attacks" on voters. But who would such attacks be aimed at? Dead people? Those attempting to vote twice or even more? Both of those things happened repeatedly in New York's then-20th Congressional District in 2020 and several people were arrested.

Assuming Kemp signs the bill, starting in 2026, Georgia ballots will no longer be scanned using QR codes. Many voters complained that all identifying information should be readable by human eyes. The bill would require future ballots to include either readable text or filled-in markers such as bubbles. There haven't been too many issues with the QR codes thus far, but this change will make the work of monitors easier.


A comment to this article:

Florida changed mail in ballot and dropbox rules in time for the 2020 election. That's why Trump won by 3+% here rather than "losing" like he did in GA, AZ, WI, MI and NV. Mail in ballots required 100% signature match and drop boxes were only allowed inside voting locations. Oh, and mail in ballots had to be requested by the voter.

A federal judge from Washington, D.C., is facing criticism for what experts are calling "inappropriate" comments about former President Trump in a media interview as Trump faces a federal trial in the judge's district.

Senior U.S. District Court Judge Reggie Walton for the District of Columbia appeared in an interview with CNN’s Kaitlan Collins Thursday after Trump criticized the daughter of New York Judge Juan Merchan, who is presiding over the hush money case scheduled to go to trial April 15.

Walton, in a rare media appearance for a sitting judge, sat for the interview Thursday and criticized Trump’s comments, calling them "very disconcerting."

Dear Judge Walton,

Do you remember what this symbol means?? Does it ring any bells?? Perhaps something you learned in Law 101. JSMH...

My broski has a REAL issue with this on our ballots here in Texas. I'll urge him to work with his State Rep to get this changed here.

perhaps Willis should have a competency hearing?

she appears to be seriously delusional and not in complete control of her faculties

at least thats my view from an impartial observation

oh, and by the way Willis - if you could learn to speak English, that would be great

Thanks for that report. Glad to hear it. And I hope, and expect, that the Dems will pay for that bond, and more.

Truth Social: Trump's DJT stock plummets days after going public

8 hours ago
By Sam Cabral,
BBC News, Washington

Shares of Donald Trump's social media company fell by more than 20% on Monday, less than a week after it began publicly trading under the DJT ticker.

The drop comes after Trump Media & Technology Group reported it had lost nearly $60m (£48m) last year while only bringing in around $4m in revenue.

The price plunge caused the former president's net worth to shrink by $1bn, according to Bloomberg.

Shares had surged last week, giving the company an $11bn valuation.

But experts warned the stock was bound to tumble, as its main product - Truth Social - loses users and burns cash.

The price spike drew comparisons to the pandemic-era "meme stock" mania, when the share prices of companies like GameStop and AMC soared even though basic parts of their businesses, such as revenue, were weak.

Meme stocks are ones that gain sudden popularity on social media, sparking price rises as online investors rush to buy.

On Monday, shares of Trump Media - which makes its money exclusively through advertising on Truth Social - fell $13.30 to $48.66. But they are still up nearly 200% so far this year.

The surge has been driven by small-time investors, at least some of whom appear to be showing support for the former president as his legal troubles, and the bills that accompany them, pile up.

Mr Trump holds a nearly 60% ownership stake in the company and stands to earn a billion-dollar windfall when he cashes out his shares - though he is legally barred from doing so for another six months unless the company's board grants him a waiver.

But these investors are making a bet on a company that, in a special filing on Monday, told the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) it "expects to continue to incur operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities for the foreseeable future".

According to the financial filing, Trump Media paid about $40m in interest expenses and $16m in operating losses in 2023.

The company said its management had "substantial doubt" that it "will have sufficient funds to meet its liabilities as they fall due".

Truth Social launched in February 2022, about one year after the former president was banned from Twitter (now X) and Facebook in the aftermath of the violent riot at the US Capitol.

While Mr Trump's accounts on both platforms have since been reinstated, he has continued to use Truth Social as the main avenue for his social media posts.

But his presence on the platform has not helped it gain a broad audience. Estimates from Similarweb show the company has roughly five million active monthly users, far fewer than rivals.

Truth Social has claimed it has about 8.9 million sign-ups, but it has declined to share the commonly disclosed performance metrics that could give shareholders a better sense of its
operations.
