Donald Trump can attend the high school graduation of his youngest son, Barron, in Florida next month, the judge overseeing the former president’s hush-money trial said. It was not immediately clear whether the trial would pause for the day.

New publicity stunt: I’m a famous comedian. I announce I’ve written the funniest joke ever put to paper. I televise me sealing the joke in an envelope and it will only be revealed on my upcoming Netflix special. As we await the launch date, I say “things are too PC” to gain right wing interest 1/x

Convince right wingers I’m one of them. “Kids these days. Keyboards. Dancing. Cancellation. Etc. etc.” Get them to buy tickets to my show. Great unsealing of joke… a 45 minute Aristocrats style rant about the very right wing in attendance. They were the joke the whole time. 2/3

“Can’t call people rednecks anymore because your cousin parents might get offended. Can’t celebrate 3 kings day anymore because you all wanted to kill the vice president. Can’t drink bleach anymore… wait. No, please. Everyone here tonight, drink bleach. You’ll do this country a real solid.” Etc. 3/3

Craziest part about it was when the judge said, “I’m reluctant to rule in the plaintiff’s favor on account that defendant clearly needs more money to buy some style. But ultimately I think limiting defendants ability to make such poor jacket decisions is of greater benefit to the state of Delaware“
