MSNBC : Juror 2, the oncology nurse, has been excused from duty. She had concerns about her identity becoming public

MSNBC
: Juror 2, the oncology nurse, has been excused from duty.

She had concerns about her identity becoming public and said friends and family have already inquired about whether she's a juror. The juror added that, given these outside influences, she was concerned about her ability to be fair and impartial.

UPDATE:
“Two jurors have been dismissed in Donald Trump’s hush money trial,” the AP reports.

“One was excused after expressing doubt about her ability to be fair and impartial. The other was dismissed after prosecutors raised questions about the accuracy of his answers during selection process.”

“The dismissals on Thursday bring down to five the number of jurors seated so far.”

Moskowitz: I think it's important that together as a committee that we begin Comer's therapy session.

Moskowitz: I think it’s important that together as a committee that we begin Comer’s therapy session. He has suffered tremendous loss. And that is the loss of his impeachment hearing. There’s all sorts of different stages of grief.

MAGA Supporters Admit Paying for Sex in order to Defend Trump:

This was what MAGA supporters in Manhattan were saying yesterday:

MAGA Voter: “What man didn’t pay for a prostitute in the United States? I know I did plenty of times.”

Fact Check: 14 percent of men have paid for sex in their life according to Business Insider.

MAGA Voter: “I’ve been to Thailand, so I’m not going to judge my president for what he did in his personal life. I’ve been to Thailand 3 times. What do you think I’ve done in Thailand, just sit in a chair? No, I go out and have fun with women. That’s what we do as men.”

DO NOT lump ME in with your crap behavior, you degenerate, lying sack of crap.

DJT: "My trial is an assault on America"


This trial is NOT an assault on me.

*I* did not cheat on YOUR wife with a porn actress and a nude model.

*I* did not scheme to cover up payments to keep them quiet.

DO NOT lump ME in with your crap behavior, you degenerate, lying sack of crap.

Maddow ftw

Maddow: The wheels of justice grind slowly. I did not think they would grind so slowly that they would rock the defendant apparently to sleep.
