The defense didn't rest, it ran out of excuses.
🎯
The prosecution dusted their hands, tuned out the lights, left for the holiday.weekend, leaving Costello IN A BURNED HEAP 😂
@user-gw5pp2ur4h: HA!, HA!, HA!
Do you think it was appropriate for Joe Biden to shower with his teenage daughter? In her diary, she spoke of showering late at night only after her father had gone to sleep so he wouldn't join her -- Pg. 11.
The defense didn't rest, it never really got out of bed.
Disrespect for the judge in court is disrespect for the law and for history.
Not to mention the jury….
yeah I dunno about that. Is it smart? No. But... judges are not living embodiments of the law itself... they are just human beings... personally if I were in a court with Aileen Cannon or Clarence Thomas overseeing a case I would not respect either of them just because they put a robe on.

Costello's testimony= "equivalent of drunk driving." Perfect analogy: not only driving while intoxicated, recklessly weaving all over the road, but also being belligerent and hostile when police officers stop you, threatening them and refusing a sobriety test.

@@joannecleve4718 Mr. Lawrence? Haha, that's a good one! If he's so "mister," why's he ducking debates and asking for his show's nonsense to be off-limits? Sounds like he's got a lot to hide. Maybe he should stick to his script where no one can call him out!
@antimediaman9354 We get it. You have some exclusive knowledge about Lawrence trying to gimmick a debate with, of all people, Ben Shapiro? That's patently hilarious. Lawrence could debate circles around Shapiro with minimal effort. Compare the two and what they've accomplished in their respective careers. As for the other debate opponents you keep spouting off about, same result. Keep spending your time copy/pasting your nonsense all over. Not my time being wasted.

@@antimediaman9354
I disagree with Biden 100% on his support of the Israeli genocide of the Palestinians. 100%. Trump, on the other hand, is offensive in EVERY way and was an embarrassment every single day. He is still despicable every day, even out of office. Biden has many redeeming qualities. Trump has none.

In the UK watching Lawrence's magnificent summaries 🇬🇧
@alimar0604 I’m curious how common this type of journalism is in UK?
From what I can tell this isn’t really the norm in the US and maybe more common in certain European countries. I always was under the impression that UK journalism on average was pretty unbiased/neutral and factual (excluding maybe some outlets), I wonder how you would rate UK journalism compared to US?
Edit: I’m from the Netherlands, full disclosure.
@@Wizz15 hi Wizz, in the UK we don't tend to have this sort of lengthy storytelling presentation. In most cases the news is presented in short bites within a general news programme. The full story would perhaps be presented in a separate documentary with no bias. I am generalising of course! I find the US news presenters to be quiet excitable compared to the UK. Best wishes 👋
@@alimar0604😅
Don't you think it sounded like he was speaking about Boris Johnson?
In South Africa doing the same. 🌺
This is a judge who does not suffer fools gladly. Glad to see him put the defense on their heels.
Why is anyone so deluded by him? Its insane.
It’s called a cult it’s inexplicable
He’s the Pied Piper…taking everyone with him…so criminal like him…🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Because his message is WS and the thought that all people are created equal as human beings and therefore are to be treated as such, is something they aren't willing to partake in.

not delusion, it's complicity
A national embarrassment and STAIN
0 days since tRUMP embarrassed America.

He also lied when he said he wouldn't take a salary

Thank you once again, Lawrence, for showing the world what went down in NYC today. This is history happening before our eyes and through your words we all get to see it unfold. Bravo 👏 👏👏👏
"Uncouth buffoon" is a perfect description of Trump! Way to go Lawrence!
Many years ago, while playing a family word game, my mom coined the word "bluffoon". I'd argue that this fits Trump and many of his ilk as well 😁
Lawrence is a scholar and a poet.
So well said Lawrence the uncouth buffoon may have money but I doubt it , no one needs to grift like he does if you have money ,but he has absolutely no class whatsoever. He’s rock bottom cesspool slurry!
Your parents MUST be siblings
I’ve called DT both uncouth and a buffoon so many dozens of times over the past 8 years so I especially enjoyed hearing Lawrence use those perfectly Trump-descriptive words in succession lol. ✌🏼⚖️
The defense has an indefensible client.
Well said. Thank you.

Yes, and think of the money he makes with this fiction!
When your client is guilty, you put the system on trial.
No defense at all. I love that judge. Thanks so much Lawrence. Sleep well 💕
Often no defense is a valid defense in court cases. The defense is never legally obligated to prove anything and defence lawyers have won many cases without calling a single witness. If they feel the prosecution hasn't proven their case, they may not want to give the prosecution a shot at scoring points on cross examining their own witnesses. Of course this tactic demands that the defense has scored major hits from cross examining prosecution witnesses. In some jurisdictions throughout western democracy, the defense is also given the advantage of presenting their closing argument after the prosecution should they elect not to call any witnesses. The advantage here of course is that the jury typically retains more of the final argument when they go into deliberations.
@@joeblog2672 Well, no defense would have been a valid defense if the prosecution hadn't proven their case, but unfortunately for the defense team the prosecution has.
Hope one day you have to go before a corrupt judge yourself
@@Borvo1 I do tend to write long comments so I omitted that point to avoid extending myself as indeed, it seems the prosecution has proven their case beyond ALL doubt (reasonable and unreasonable). And of course, the defense's misfortune is our good fortune!
@@joeblog2672 WOW!! You needn't be so long winded in your defense of trumps NOT HAVING a single witness to call in his defense which is a more accurate analysis of why his lawyers didn't call a single defense witness. He's got nobody to call to defend him. You can throw as much as you want at the wall while hoping it sticks but that doesn't change that facts in this case.
Complete disregard for the judge and the law itself, yeah, that's a winning strategy. Well done little donny, well done.

Thank you, Mr. O’Donnell.
Trump also said He wouldnt take a salary, so many lies....
Trump: "I don't need a plane, I have my own plane." "I don't need anyone's money. It's nice... but I am very rich." "Mexico will pay for the wall." So many lies and now no problem begging for money and hocking merchandise. His followers have been led by their wallet to now feel like he is the victim and they need to come to his aid.
To be fair, there's evidence he donated most of it. Guaranteed he wrote it off on his taxes, though.
Didn't need a salary had so many scams going that paid waaaay more than potus salary
Legally, he had to take at least $1. He did donate the rest. Why wouldn't he deduct on taxes? He had to claim the income.
The grifting in return is more than his would be salary in folds. All a con game from the start!

Stormy Daniels was doing her job as a prostitute for the money as a job & so was Cohen who still works for Trump in disguise as the fixer
While Implementing the NEW WORLD of ORDERS IS ON SCHEDULE AS THE original PLAN announced by Henry Kissinger under the bushes following 911
The new Police State will be by Robots who are already watching everybody on camera already in place.
JOE BIDEN who is funding world war 3 - is apart of the plans & schemes
Because he not only is supporting these wars, he left major military weapons to the Taliban
In Afghanistan
But the news has ignored his activities as well as they are owned by the money supporters of the new world of orders
Because they have more rights then humans as ruled by the Supreme Court - are currently destroying the constitution.
Everything is connected to the overall plans.

@@TS-qi6kh This is not name calling. It is accurate and artful description arising from astute observation.
@@TS-qi6khLol! Have you ever heard Donald Trump speak? Or read his incessant social media posts? HIS behavior is the reason that people call him names. Did you watch the first Republican debate in 2015? 😳I’ve seen a lot of presidential debates and I never heard any candidate call his opponents names. But then Trump came along and did just that. And he kept those names alive by consistently referring to his opponents by the names he’d called them. It took his Republican opponents over a month to finally start fighting back and start using words that described him very well. Words like phony, fraud, liar, RINO, race-baiting xenophobe, con artist, etc. He’s actually the “crooked” and “crazy” one. He’s rude and immature. Disrespectful and undignified. He’s the worst of the worst and is definitely an uncouth buffoon. If the shoe fits…

All of "YOU" people have serious issues . Do you understand the word? Look it up in a dictionary or better yet , look in a mirror.
And yet, for some reason, y'all leftist keep holding him to that regard..🤦♂️
When he's in the position of POTUS, he was indeed. It's the position, not the man, that made him so, which is why he should never be allowed in that position again.

The best Trump could do here was to attack the proceedings (the usual last defense of the guilty), or to spew excuses aimed at his base (I am not allowed to testify in my defense!), or try to get some mafia wannabe guy to try to bully the judge and process, because Trump likes “pitbull” aggressive exchanges and thinks they help…somehow.

Trump is a disaster for this country lock him up for the safety of the American people.
I understand why Biden is a disaster but why Trump?

@@percybyssheshellythe fact that you pretend to not understand, demonstrates that you are either lying or intentionally $htupid.

Your report is admirably very strongly presented, Lawrence. Much appreciated
Your reporting is perfection. Thank you.
Lawrence needs to be president!!! He knows his facts!!
In his past, he was a US Senate STAFFER 😊
That’s a really bad joke. O Donell reads off a teleprompter!!!
And presidents don't ?
@@kookootrix1978 Trump doesn't know anything about anything. He thinks water breaks magnets. So... no, some presidents don't.
Only those that can read .
Am holding my breath till the jury returns from the deliberation room.
Yeah, pretty much. Betting there is that "one" person...
Same
And, America has to stand by and wait and wait for a verdict. The intensity of the trumplican maggot era is so full of fricking drama and idiocy..
@@schmooter833 Even if there is "one", he will have to put up with the others setting him straight.
@@penelopesimpsonadams624 Sounds accurate. Ever since 2016 it's been almost daily outrages and drama, and I and many others - including professional talking heads and scholars are still saying "I don't understand how to so many people truly believe Trump is America's best. My hypothesis is that it is due to poor education - people have been complaining since I was in high school in the 60s that civics is neglected. And *then* education was dumbed down. The economic squeeze on the working class, the end of the post WWII economic safety nets beginning in the Reagan-Thatcher years. That is, the backlash from the power elite. And the global proliferation of autocrats under such conditions. Certainly am hoping for a verdict, "We the jury find the defendant accountable."
We see Costello making a fool of himself where is Abbott when you need Abbott and Costello put together in one room
Must be frustrating knowing you can't make the truth disappear.
The GOP seem to think that "uncooth buffoon" is how people normally are.
It's a Republican norm!
It has become the defining quality of most Republican legislators (think: Matt Gaetz, Ron Johnson, Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley, Margorie T. Green, Boebert, Mike Johnson, Kevin McCarthy, Moscow Mitch, etc......). These people are not only uncouth, but unethical, without a moral compass, deplorables that belong in prison rather than our Congress (I mean, mostly of them were involved in the Coup, for example).
@abrahamdozer6273 This is called projection.
Because they are corrupt, the other party must be too. Because their former president was a criminal, the current one must be too. Because they commit election fraud and have foreign interference, Biden must have too. Etcetera…
Only if it serves them. Thanks to justice that will be corrected in the end and it won't be in man's court.😮❤...
Their inbreds
Lawrence has one of the best and most critical jobs in 2024, calling out the idiocy and stupidity of the criminal sociopath out on bail running for office for which he proved unfit and totally unqualified. Lawrence gets to do it on TV. I love it.
He was president for 4 years already. And have you analyzed his accomplishments?
@@jonahzablow2132 Accomplishments? You mean being the most corrupt and incompetent occupant of the White House in history? You mean getting impeached twice? You mean his own VP wouldn’t endorse him? His whole administration was incompetent from day one. The list is too long. From Pruit out for corruption at EPA, Price out for corruption at Health and Human Services, Zinke out for corruption at Interior… naming ntujob Flynn as NSA?!?! Disbanding Pandemic Office before a Pandemic. Come on not evem his Chief of Staff endorsed him. Where were you those 4 years? How about J6?
I’ve been on a jury a couple of times, and by far the most important aspect of the trials was the judge’s guidance to the jury.
I absolutely love these videos. “ An uncouth buffoon”. Perfect.
