US Supreme Court declines to halt Trump's sentencing in hush money case

The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday rejected a bid by the state of Missouri to halt Donald Trump's upcoming sentencing for his conviction in New York on felony charges involving hush money paid to a porn star and left a related gag order until after the Nov. 5 presidential election.

#Missouri (pronounced "misery") is the #ShowMeState and this bumpkin has shown me that my #law #degree is better than his and I didn't even go to law school. Can you say "zero standing"? If this case isn't rejected as frivolous, New York's #AG should sue #AileenCannon for #ElectionInterference for depriving voters of knowing whether #Trump illegally possessed and/or shared #classified information that put #US #NationalSecurity in jeopardy, making it a weaker country...

Don't be 'weak and gay,' Missouri Republican candidate says

Secretary of state hopeful Valentina Gomez was already infamous for a video showing her burning LGBTQ-themed books.

The #ShowMeState showing us how low stupidity and #bigotry can go. Again, so glad I left public school teaching. At this time, bill expected to die in committee, but does not mean they'll stop there.

GOP bill would require teachers to register as sex offenders if they support trans students - LGBTQ Nation

They could also get sent to jail just for using the right name and pronouns for their trans students.

Missouri is known as the "Show Me State." This originates from an 1889 speech in which congressman William Vandiver (D) declared:

""I come from a state that raises [corn, cotton, cockleburs, and Democrats.] Frothy eloquence neither convinces nor satisfies me. I am from Missouri. You have got to show me."

Here's a fun postcard with a goofy "Show Me" interpretation. 😜
