What the "Townhall Tipsheet" doesn't tell you, of course, is that this is a settlement agreement between Brag and the bogus crap-show of Jim Jordan that will provide for an attorney from Bragg's office to sit in at the deposition of Mark Pomerantz, the former assistant DA in Braggs office. And, the "Tipsheet" also fails to mention the reason Pomerantz quit is because Bragg wasn't filing criminal charges fast enough against Trump! Must have slipped their "minds"...

Well now if you had more than 2 brain cells of the 3 you currently possess, in operation at the time you wrote your stupidity above, you would have understood this from the article:

Right there in the article:

"Pomerantz will appear before the committee on May 12, as the Associated Press reported, and he can have his lawyer present."

Gosh you really are more obtuse than we thought.... IF that is possible.   wink
Of course, obtuse, he can have "his" lawyer present but the DA's office will have their participating, too:
“Our successful stay of this subpoena blocked the immediate deposition and afforded us the time necessary to coordinate with the House Judiciary Committee on an agreement that protects the District Attorney’s privileges and interests,” a spokesperson for the office said in a statement."
"Pomerantz will be questioned by the committee on May 12 alongside legal counsel from the DA’s office."
"Pomerantz previously served as one of the DA’s office’s top prosecutors in the Trump case."
"He has said he left due to Bragg’s reluctance to seek criminal charges against Trump at the time."

Another typical Jim Jordan abuse of his subpoena power goes kaput before him and his fellow GOP clowns:
“What I do not respect is the use of the Committee’s subpoena power to compel me to participate in an act of political theater,” Pomerantz’s statement reads. “This deposition is for show. I do not believe for a moment that I am here to assist a genuine effort to enact legislation or conduct legislative ‘oversight.’”
“Fortunately, I do not have to cooperate with the cynical histrionics that this deposition represents,” it later adds. “Although the rule of law compels me to be here, it does not require that I play a substantive role in your theatrical production. Under the law, I can decline to answer your questions for several reasons.”
" Pomerantz said he thought Trump was “guilty of numerous felony violations,” and called the disinclination to charge the former president “misguided and completely contrary to the public interest.”"

There are 2 standards of justice, one for Democrats in that they are permitted to do anything they want including violating subpoenas, and one for Repubs in which they go to jail for the same thing.  
Lol! He didn't violate a subpoena, unlike either Bannon or Navarro, both of whom ignored theirs. Pomerantz was there, thereby fulfilling the demand of the subpoena to be there. He did what he said he did: he honored the rule of the law. Deal with it.

Breaking News

"Right wing primetime host Tucker Carlson is leaving Fox News immediately, the cable network announced Monday.

The announcement came days after Fox News’ parent company settled Dominion Voting Systems’ defamation lawsuit for $787.5 million."


I guess someone's head had to roll. Bye, bye Tucker.
How sweet it is!....

Tucker Carlson leaves Fox News in wake of Dominion defamation settlement

Posted By Rod Kaufman

"Carlson spoke at an event on Friday for the conservative Heritage Foundation, at which he formerly was a copy editor and fact checker at the organization’s now defunct policy review quarterly."
"Heritage president Kevin Roberts said after Carlson’s speech: “If things go south for Fox News, there’s always a job for you here.”
“You’ve saved me before,” Carlson replied."
https://thehill.com/homenews/media/3966300-tucker-carlson-and-fox-news-part-ways/'
Carlson was a "fact checker" at Heritage? And the want him bacK? Speaks volumes about the Heritage foundation...

Don Lemon fired at CNN.

You truly are a piece of work aren't you?   

So inform us all how your lunatic assertion that my posting is "another whataboutism"??  

I read the news about Don Lemon, then I posted the article.  

How exactly is that whataboutism?    You truly are a deranged meathead.   tongue

I guess if something happens tomorrow, and Hunter Biden is magically indicted, and I post about it, then according to your insane, deranged mental condition, that is also whataboutism, because another person was indicted?  

Absolutely moronic are your postings lately.  smile

BTW, I'm not giddy and dancing up and down because CNN fired Lemon.  I really couldn't care less, however it is a bit sad for him. They have their reasons.  

My answer to his propaganda is to watch others challenge him, and I like when that happens and he's exposed as the liar he is. 

However I don't want him fired for putting out his propaganda.  I'm not ANTI-free speech, yet YOU on the other hand ARE for silencing speech you don't agree with, which exposes volumes about your feelings about free speech.

Like the communists of days gone by, you're all for censorship and silencing of speech you disagree with. wink

Me?  I'm FOR the Bill of Rights, the 1st amendment and allowing anyone in this nation to speak freely whether I agree with them or not.   
"Me?  I'm FOR the Bill of Rights, the 1st amendment and allowing anyone in this nation to speak freely whether I agree with them or not."
That's the real laugher here. Dems protest gun violence, and it's throw 'em out for violating rules of decorum. Media says something negative about someone whose views you like and you're hopping on the bandwagon to get 'em in court while you hope and pray their ratings go down and proudly post about it if it does. The hypocrisy that you exhibit typifies so many cons that one can't keep count anymore...

Really?  What alternate reality are you living when that occurred?  I guess now you're going to just make fabrications of lies, or have you lost it that much that you're starting to believe your own psychotic bullshit?   tongue  

Apparently you are referring to the Losers in the Tennessee House of Reps, who completely disrupted the IN SESSION Congress with bullhorns, and screaming, which WAS a violation of the WRITTEN Rules of the House of Reps in Tennessee, and whose violation had as a remedy INSIDE their Rule book for the Tennessee Congress of being voted OUT of their seats by the remaining Legislative members.  

See, that's how gov'ts act when complete Anarchists like the 3 Democrat losers VIOLATED the rules of Decorum.  They have written Rules just like we have written laws in States throughout the nation, and when one CHOOSES to violate those WRITTEN RULES Of Decorum or the law they end up suffering consequences of their VIOLATIONS of the Rules or Laws.  

If you have a problem with those Rules and/or Laws, that's called too bad.  We live in a civil society not a society of MOB RULE.  

Now, aside from those facts above, I know of a little girl who lives in Castaic, CA, who is such a coward that he runs to Herb to get others thrown off because he can't handle his own battles, so he has to get others to fight his battles of words for him because he's not bright enough to engage in a discussion, due to his feeble intellect. 

I know that occurred.  And the little girl who did that is named Rod Kaufman. Are you familiar with that dimwit?  smile

Subsequent to the fantasy world that the feeble minded girl who lives in Castaic, CA penned in his first delusion, was this next bit of psychosis.

The resident freakshow in Castaic, CA wrote this:  "Media says something negative about someone whose views you like and you're hopping on the bandwagon to get 'em in court while you hope and pray their ratings go down and proudly post about it if it does."

LOL!  I'm hopping on the bandwagon to get the media in court when they say something negativer about someone whose views I like?  

Hmm... I don't recall ever saying that, however once again, I can point to You and every other loser leftist here who have been acting completely giddy over Tucker Carlson's axing from Fox.  

I can point to You and every other leftist here who has been frothing at the mouth for Dominion to "take down Fox" once and for all.  

As for your assertion that I hope and pray that media host's ratings go down is a bit over the top.

I will admit to pointing out the facts, such as that CNN has lost more than half of its viewership and that their ratings are in the toilet, and yes I'm proud to post about their failing network.  I do enjoy posting about their failings as a network.  I have no problem with doing that.  

Furthermore, without question, I'm happy to see them get their asses handed to them on a platter through the FREE Market.  That's how it is supposed to work but I'm quite certain that I've not said they should be taken off the air for their propaganda.  

That's a different story, as I don't vote against the 1st amendment and I don't want media outlets silenced as You do want Fox News taken off the air by the gov't tyrants. 

There's a big difference in wanting to see CNN and MSNBC fail, and wanting the gov't to step in and tyrannically silence their freedom of speech as You and some others here have stated over and over about FoxNews.  

However, you are free to wallow in your delusions as communists like yourself have been known to do.  smile
"See, that's how gov'ts act when complete Anarchists like the 3 Democrat losers VIOLATED the rules of Decorum. "
Actually, they only threw out the two black reps while the white one said she was spared because the color of her skin.
"...a coward that he runs to Herb to get others thrown off because he can't handle his own battles, so he has to get others to fight his battles of words for him because he's not bright enough to engage in a discussion, due to his feeble intellect."
Whether I or someone else brings it to his attention, if Herb ultimately decides  to throw you off it's for good reason(s). You can read about them in the terms of service. 
You've managed to get yourself kicked off several times, haven't you? Nobody else approaches that but you. You're obviously the problem that prompted the solution...
Nobody but Fox and other right wing "news" outlets spread misinformation to the degree that they do, and the Dominion case and others coming up obviously demonstrate it...
