The Daily Beans Allow Me To Retort (feat. Mayor Karen Bass; Adam Klasfeld)
Thursday, June 12th, 2025
Today, Trump’s new lawyers argue at the Second Circuit Court of Appeals to move his 34 felony count appeal to federal court; Trump’s DoJ calls Governor Newsom’s lawsuit a crass political stunt and irony immediately died; Customs and Border Protection confirms it’s flying Predator drones over Los Angeles; a new Quinnipiac poll shows Trump’s approval is sliding considerably across all issues; Trump and Kegseth screened military audience members for loyalty and weight prior to his speech at Fort Liberty (i refuse to call it Fort Bragg); Representative LaMonica McIver has been wrongfully indicted by a grand jury; a Manhattan jury found Harvey Weinstein guilty on a sex crimes charge on Wednesday; they’ve resorted to paying people to attend Trump’s stupid birthday parade; and Allison and Dana deliver your Good News.
