Please ping me if you do notice additional journalists who're actually quitting X so I can add them to the eXit spreadsheet (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1p5crRGK0Y9MuFsfkyOBEC--3wXxFTd71fPCUcIFPXK0/edit#gid=0) - hopefully seeing their peers do it will convince more folks to do the same.

Such an awkward coincidence that the testimony of ignoramus Paul DePape, who intended to break Nancy Pelosi's kneecaps and bludgeoned her husband with a hammer, is basically a distillation of the core messages of the leading #GOP candidate for President. https://www.kqed.org/news/11967247/david-depape-on-witness-stand-details-grand-plan-to-violently-interrogate-nancy-pelosi

David DePape, on Witness Stand, Details ‘Grand Plan’ to Violently Interrogate Nancy Pelosi | KQED

DePape, who attacked Paul Pelosi with a hammer last year, testified on the third day of his federal trial in San Francisco, occasionally breaking into tears as he detailed an outlandish plan to kidnap the former House speaker and other 'evil' targets.

While I'm glad Trump's criminality and corruption is coming into focus, I also hope that doesn't cause us to ignore his terrifying, deadly level of incompetence at being president. This is the man who urged the public to prevent COVID by injecting bleach.

UNREQUITED LOVE:
At the close of Trumps trial in Colorado where voters want him removed from the ballot, his attorneys made some...let's call them novel....arguments about Jan. 6 and Trumps culpability.

JODIE FOSTER makes an appearance in this story, and I bet you didn't see that coming.

Dig IN KIDS cus this is almost certainly going to SCOTUS:

'Like a stalker and their victim': Trump lawyers say rioter's 'unrequited love' caused Jan. 6

A ruling is imminent after voters and attorneys for Donald Trump wrapped up a trial in Colorado over whether Trump should be disqualified from the 2024 ballot.
