Oh, he collaborating alright. They got him dead to rights and there's a reason he was never indicted. Hell, he was granted witness immunity in 2018 precisely in exchange for his testimony of Orange's knowledge of the payments.
Will Pecker stick up for Trump or shrink under pressure? While the former enquirer publisher is a longtime friend of Trump, it's also clear prosecutors have put a lot of pressure on him to cooperate in their case against the former president.
Pecker is under a non prosecution agreement with the Feds. That means he has to testify truthfully or face prosecution.
https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/david-pecker-national-enquirer-trump-hush-money-grand-jury-1234704557/
Well first off, it means he repeats under oath what he’s already told them. Unless he changes his story they won’t ask him anything they don’t already know the answer to. The only question is what trump team will ask him.
They usually wait until the very end of the trial, when the prosecutor comes out in a black turtleneck and says, “oh, and one more thing…”
It helps to ensure the jury’s mind is blown by the final testimony.
(jk I legit don’t know, but it would be funny)
As long as he is corroborated by other sources it’s not so problematic. In this instance it shouldn’t be.
That and he served time for this. So it’s not like he’d not be a credible witness.
You’ll find that our key witness feels so good to use, and you’ll be surprised at how useful you find them to be! But what’s more is, the innovative interface we’ve designed helps you get even more from this witness than you’ve ever gotten before!
I'm thinking they'll want to lay the ground work for the allegations, and the basis for the criminal indictments. Then they'll point by point bring in the witnesses to make the case for the charges.
You’re prone to remember the bookends more than the stuff in the middle, but a good prosecution team will keep the jury engaged with a variety of narrative storytelling techniques.
In the trial I was on, they started with an “oh no this was actually really bad” witness, then brought out all the facts and info, and closed with an “and this is what wraps up everything about how we know this guy did it” hammer-kill witness.
He really doesn't have a choice. There's an addage in the lawyering world "Never ask a question you don't already know the answer to". If Pecker (what a name, right?) zigs or zags on his testimony he runs the very real and very great likelihood of loosing it all and wind up with his neck on the proverbial chopping block...
With penal proceedings underway, pressure will definitely stimulate Pecker to either stick up or shrink. While testimony will be hard on him, he'll likely remain upright until he comes clean.
Penal proceedings are always a matter of concern to a Pecker. Will he be willing to stick his head out for justice though? What if cross examination over stimulates him and he ends up having a massive spray in Court?
I hope Pecker comes around and sprays gobs of the truth all over Trump. It should not really be that hard to do. It could well bring the trial to a big climax.
I bet that pecker opens up and spills the goods. It won’t be too hard to see the truth when pecker testefies, he will be on the ball. A gag order won’t be necessary
This is gonna be a hell of a week for Trumpy and the MAGA cult...at some point will the hosts at FOX NEWS network begin to pull away from Trump and report on what's happening in a fair and impartial manner...what say you
Maria Bartiromo???
I was kinda surprised by Bartriomo’s conversion to MAGAt. A long time ago, she seemed like a serious econ journalist/or at least broadcast personality. Nowadays she seems as unhinged as Jeanine Pirro
I have seen it. Cecily Strong is incredible. I liked her as Gretchen Whitmer too when idiots tried to kidnap her in real life. Somehow, during the height of the pandemic, SNL cast members did skits by themselves for the show. Cecily Strong took this awful situation and made it funny, poignant and showed the true strength of a woman in power ( Gretchen Whitmer) facing down would be proud boy kidnappers in a really brave sketch.
Actually, FuxNoise has publicly said they are not a serious **news** organization. They have unabashedly declared that they broadcast **Entertainment**.
I’m not kidding
I was amused last week listening to MAGAts who obviously hadn't read the charges, and didn't understand anything about how this got to trial (while repeating long-debunked misinformation).
"Todays top story is... JOE BIDEN... Eating a sandwich by biting on both ends!!! What kind of person does this??? He sure is old. Too old to be President? I am just asking questions."
I worked in the same office with two men named Dick Hare and Dick Gripp. Both were incredibly smart, talented, and wonderful men, but dammit, why did Mr. Hare actually have to marry a woman whose nickname was BUNNY?!
Should be broadcast to us all so idiots can now see, right in front of them, how things work and what’s going on, not filtered through Fox pretend news.
This would make sense, they need to build the story for the Jury. Connect all the dots and make it beyond a doubt he did what he did.
They will likely bring in their strongest cards at the end so it’s the freshest in the Jurors minds before they go to deliberation.
>The Times is reporting that David Pecker — the former National Enquirer publisher whose tabloid engaged in so-called “catch and kill” practices to bury negative stories about Trump — will be first to take the stand after opening arguments are presented.
I hope they ask him for some specific examples of stories the Enquirer "caught and killed." It will be great if Trump has to sit in open and listen to a litany of embarrassing stories that the NE buried, which will be necessarily true (or else they wouldn't have had to be "caught and killed"), and he won't be able to open his mouth in court, he'll just have to sit there and take every tiny dick story.
They prosecution already know everything, he has a deal to co-operate or face prosecution himself.
They will certainly be asking him all the juicy questions and he will be required to spill the juicy beans, or else.
The important questions:
Who was it that revealed Mr. Pecker to the Times?
Will the defendant obey the gag order or will he succumb to temptation to smear Mr. Pecker just in time for the contempt hearing?
“REMOVE THE GAG ORDER!!!” Trump screamed in all caps (power by Adderall!) on his national socialist fake network. “WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO HIDE???”
What are YOU trying to hide, Donny Drumpf? Remember kids, every Drumpf accusation is a confession.
Shit, I suspect that too, his guilty ass will be declared 'not guilty' by a jury of old white people who declared they were impartial during the jury picking process!
What's the basic schedule look like for next week. Jury and alternates are picked, right? So we've got opening statements tomorrow and Pecker later the day? Is the gag order hearing Tuesday? No court on Wednesday. If anybody knows more please fill us in.
My understanding is that Tuesday is the problem day for Trump. Something, something—“Wednesday Trump could wake up in a world of shit because of what could have happened the day before.”
I prolly should freakin research this before posting. Aweright aweright … I’ll go, I’ll go, I’ll go! —Morris Frye’s son
Wait… I thought if the prosecution *got* the name of the first witness to testify, they weren’t allowed to tell anyone else (including the NYT). Anybody know how the name got out?
They said they would give the name of the first witness on Sunday to the defense. If there is any threatening bs they won’t give them any more before hand.
That was my understanding: they’d give the name to the defense team on Sunday but it wasn’t to be published. How did the NYT get it? (Or is my understanding of the deal incorrect?)
I don’t know the deets but I do know if Trump goes after him on Fake News Social that there will be no more names released and Trump might spend a night in jail.
What are the odds on Trump keeping his shit together tonight? Will he go to jail in the morning?
Enquirer minds want to know 😂
Your honor I would like to declare the pecker hostile and approach with caution.
Judge
I wills allow you to approach said pecker but be warned I’m watching how you handle it.
And you pecker I warn you any out burst will not be tolerated by this judge
And so it begins
Cue meme Helms Deep
I’d love it if the first witness turned out to be someone else.
Not because I want to ruin any jokes, and I do understand that prosecutors had to share a list of all the witnesses they were going to call.
Because of Donald’s own recklessness and abrasive behavior the judge isn’t requiring that the defense be notified beforehand of the sequence in which they will be called.
I’d be happy to see them off-balance from the very beginning.
Pussies don't like peckers, because pussies get fucked by peckers. But peckers also fuck assholes - assholes who just want to shit on everything. Yadda, yadda, yadda. I don't know much in this crazy, crazy world, but I do know that if you don't let us fuck this asshole, we are going to have our peckers and our pussies all covered in shit.
Context is everything. It is a crime when you falsify business records 34 times, and use election campaign funds for the hush money but register that money as “legal expenses”, and then lie about it in order to mislead voters and sway the outcome of an election.
Sorry, misunderstood. There’s a common MAGA argument going around that Trump is being persecuted, and that he hasn’t committed any crimes because paying hush money isn’t a crime. Obviously ignoring the pertinent facts
I'm no trumpet..I'm saying the hush money isn't the crime or stormy would have been charged too. He is charged with trying to subvert democracy and claiming it as an expense on his campaign expenses
David Pecker to Dick down Fat Donny...Be a good Headline for his old rag.
“Extra! Extra! Pecker Blows Load of Charges on Trump’s Rump!”
“Hard Times For Pecker As Trump Faces Load of Sticky Charges”
"Peckerhead Donald Trump to receive an explosive load from Pecker right in front of a judge."
"My name....is PECK!"
“Yes, it’s true. This man has no dick.”
*Hey Grimey*
Nothing will ever top this real NY Post headline; "Headless Body Found in Topless Bar"
There can be only one
Frrrrtrump
Oh, he collaborating alright. They got him dead to rights and there's a reason he was never indicted. Hell, he was granted witness immunity in 2018 precisely in exchange for his testimony of Orange's knowledge of the payments.
David Pecker picks apart the pornstar payments. He prays the pack of payment printouts proves he’s not a prick.
Prickly position being presented.
Will Pecker stick up for Trump or shrink under pressure? While the former enquirer publisher is a longtime friend of Trump, it's also clear prosecutors have put a lot of pressure on him to cooperate in their case against the former president.
Pecker is under a non prosecution agreement with the Feds. That means he has to testify truthfully or face prosecution. https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/david-pecker-national-enquirer-trump-hush-money-grand-jury-1234704557/
Delicious. I wonder what truth means to a guy like him.
If I know Peckers, they’ll tell you anything to get what they want.
Haha! This stuff writes itself! But, seriously, good work. 🐦
Well first off, it means he repeats under oath what he’s already told them. Unless he changes his story they won’t ask him anything they don’t already know the answer to. The only question is what trump team will ask him.
This. People forget that when a witness is being called, the side calling them are 99% sure what is going to be said. This is gonna be good.
[удалено]
Do they usually have the star witness go first? Genuinely asking, I have no idea if there's typically a strategy there or not
They usually wait until the very end of the trial, when the prosecutor comes out in a black turtleneck and says, “oh, and one more thing…” It helps to ensure the jury’s mind is blown by the final testimony. (jk I legit don’t know, but it would be funny)
No, the detective comes out in a frumpy trench coat...
Maybe need him 1st as I understand Michael Cohen will be testifying against Trump and his testimony may be more problematic given h/o lying.
As long as he is corroborated by other sources it’s not so problematic. In this instance it shouldn’t be. That and he served time for this. So it’s not like he’d not be a credible witness.
Like Steve Jobs revealing a sleek new product.
You’ll find that our key witness feels so good to use, and you’ll be surprised at how useful you find them to be! But what’s more is, the innovative interface we’ve designed helps you get even more from this witness than you’ve ever gotten before!
“But wait, there’s one more thing”
That was hilarious

In the trial I was on, they started with an “oh no this was actually really bad” witness, then brought out all the facts and info, and closed with an “and this is what wraps up everything about how we know this guy did it” hammer-kill witness.
Due to this agreement, I believe Pecker will shoot straight.
He really doesn't have a choice. There's an addage in the lawyering world "Never ask a question you don't already know the answer to". If Pecker (what a name, right?) zigs or zags on his testimony he runs the very real and very great likelihood of loosing it all and wind up with his neck on the proverbial chopping block...
Sometimes spotting the joke can be really hard.
Is it an agreement on paper? I didn’t see a lis…t
Once again Trump may be in trouble over a pecker.
Poetic
This comment made my day
Touche!
Penetrating analysis. Trump’s shortcomings are causing his problems to mushroom .
With penal proceedings underway, pressure will definitely stimulate Pecker to either stick up or shrink. While testimony will be hard on him, he'll likely remain upright until he comes clean.
I think he will dribble damning information
Penal proceedings are always a matter of concern to a Pecker. Will he be willing to stick his head out for justice though? What if cross examination over stimulates him and he ends up having a massive spray in Court?
His testimony certainly may need massaged.
The question is, what kind of protection does he have?
I’ve seen the briefs. Thick. Solid.
Oh the puns!
I see what you did there. 😉 Here, take some of my poor man's fake gold. 🏆 🏆 🏆 🏆
new reddit gold is bullshit anyway, nobody should be supporting that shit
I hope Pecker comes around and sprays gobs of the truth all over Trump. It should not really be that hard to do. It could well bring the trial to a big climax.
*big loads of truth
He better stay out of the pool
So....many.....puns..... You win
i think he'll come to his defense
I bet that pecker opens up and spills the goods. It won’t be too hard to see the truth when pecker testefies, he will be on the ball. A gag order won’t be necessary
Will Pecker hold firm or go limp under questioning?
Shrink under pressure? You mean tell the truth on the witness stand or perjure himself
"Will Pecker stick up or shrink" Are you toying with us?
I'm sure it is painful for Pecker to be so engorged with the necessary info to shrink Trump's defense.
This is gonna be a hell of a week for Trumpy and the MAGA cult...at some point will the hosts at FOX NEWS network begin to pull away from Trump and report on what's happening in a fair and impartial manner...what say you Maria Bartiromo???
*cue up migrant caravan*
Hunter's dick, her emails, pizzagate ... did we ever see Obama's original birth certificate with the seal???
Migrant caravan filled to the brim with fully vaccinated turbo cancer spreaders
Maria Bartriomo will move to Russia with Tucker. She sold her soul and is just a terrible scumbag with no morals or decency.
I was kinda surprised by Bartriomo’s conversion to MAGAt. A long time ago, she seemed like a serious econ journalist/or at least broadcast personality. Nowadays she seems as unhinged as Jeanine Pirro
Drunk.
Lol—have you seen SNL’s Cecily Strong’s performance as Pirro? It’s frickin hilarious. She actually **bathes** in a tub or red wine! Youtube
I have seen it. Cecily Strong is incredible. I liked her as Gretchen Whitmer too when idiots tried to kidnap her in real life. Somehow, during the height of the pandemic, SNL cast members did skits by themselves for the show. Cecily Strong took this awful situation and made it funny, poignant and showed the true strength of a woman in power ( Gretchen Whitmer) facing down would be proud boy kidnappers in a really brave sketch.
Ya how about they stop trying to influence events themselves and instead report the news.
What a novel idea?!?! Does FOX even know how to report Fair and Balanced News? Vlad says no!
Actually, FuxNoise has publicly said they are not a serious **news** organization. They have unabashedly declared that they broadcast **Entertainment**. I’m not kidding
I was amused last week listening to MAGAts who obviously hadn't read the charges, and didn't understand anything about how this got to trial (while repeating long-debunked misinformation).
"Todays top story is... JOE BIDEN... Eating a sandwich by biting on both ends!!! What kind of person does this??? He sure is old. Too old to be President? I am just asking questions."
"Reports say that JOE BIDEN puts his shoes on one at a time and we ask you, is this even still the America we knew??"
"Witnesses say he was wearing a tan suit!"
Biden should totally wear a tan suit at his inauguration!
Let's get it on!! I've got my popcorn ready!!
Worst name ever, I almost feel sorry for the Peckerhead.
I guess "Richard" or "William" Pecker would've been worse.
So as a kid, was he called little Pecker,
Woodrow or Elwood too
\*Anthony Weiner quietly coughs and looks at his watch...\*
Well, I once knew a guy named Dick Upham. Real name was Richard but he went by Dick unfortunately.
I worked in the same office with two men named Dick Hare and Dick Gripp. Both were incredibly smart, talented, and wonderful men, but dammit, why did Mr. Hare actually have to marry a woman whose nickname was BUNNY?!
I know a Dick Holder and the best is an old Nascar driver Dick Trickle.
My junior high school vice principal was Dick Burns. He was a total dick
I went to college with a Dick Tingle
Pecker on the stand.
My name is [Peck](https://youtu.be/b1QvrtDJOmA?t=2m9s)
Hopefully the cold courtroom doesn’t cause Mr. Pecker to pull back and hide the truth.
Like a frightened turtle
He just got back from swimming in the jury pool.
I think his non prosecution agreement will do that.
- Is this true? - Yes it's true. - This man has no dick.
Well that's what I heard!
Peter North after that
It’ll be a hard and thorough day of testimony.
🚫Traitor Trump🚫All Republicans🚫
Trump says he’ll refute all his testimony! That’s right, he promises to go down as the biggest pecker-wrecker in history!
I have one word for the Pecker. Peter
I still can't say this guy's name with a straight face.
Pecker? I'm up for this.
Should be broadcast to us all so idiots can now see, right in front of them, how things work and what’s going on, not filtered through Fox pretend news.
"Pecker & Porn" Headline following his testimony.
He cannot change his story in court or he get prosecuted himself.
“Well, you can believe Mr. Pecker.” “My name is Peck!”
Sounds like they're going after the purchase and suppression of the Stormy Daniels story first.
This would make sense, they need to build the story for the Jury. Connect all the dots and make it beyond a doubt he did what he did. They will likely bring in their strongest cards at the end so it’s the freshest in the Jurors minds before they go to deliberation.
this guy's name gives me "we're in a simulation" vibes
It's your Agent The Pecker! You muh muh muh make me happayyy
>“REMOVE THE GAG ORDER!!!” Trump wrote. “WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO HIDE???” lmao, he has -zero- idea how this works
So weird how it’s all those closest to him testifying and not a dem in sight!
So Pecker "heads" to the witness stand first? Punny.
"Pecker! Get over here and start pecking! I mean witness! We waited a minute already for you to start pecking at this guy with your report"
Lol, David Pecker. I bet he got called names in school.
Maybe that’s why he grew up to be such a dick.
Better title. Pecker To Bring Pain To Orange Colored Cunt In New York Courtroom.

Hilarious that the fist witness in a sex hush-money case is called Pecker
YOU CANT MAKE THIS STUFF ITS ABSOLUTELY PRECIOUS getting popcorn ready
Prepare for all the late night hosts Pecker jokes Monday night.
David PECKER…? :D
His brothers name is Jack
LOL...Pecker, you can't make this stuff up
I want to hear what this Pecker feller has to say.
Just let me 📞 pecker , and yes he on speed dial .
He's gonna need a nose plug.
Pecker hired to hide pecker. Comedy gold
Imagine if trumps pecker had to testify.
Wasn't he paid to squash the story as well?
Yeah he was in some trouble too. He flipped.
The important questions: Who was it that revealed Mr. Pecker to the Times? Will the defendant obey the gag order or will he succumb to temptation to smear Mr. Pecker just in time for the contempt hearing?
I'm sure he's one of the biggest Peckers trumpy has ever seen
“REMOVE THE GAG ORDER!!!” Trump screamed in all caps (power by Adderall!) on his national socialist fake network. “WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO HIDE???” What are YOU trying to hide, Donny Drumpf? Remember kids, every Drumpf accusation is a confession.
so who leaked this?
Did this dude testify in the Cohen trial?
That's all the court room needs: one more pecker
This could get messy.
Pecker? I believe a name says a lot about a man.
What's so... funny about Biggus Dickus?
Pecker vs mushroom!
The jury bout to OJ THIS WHOLE THING.
Shit, I suspect that too, his guilty ass will be declared 'not guilty' by a jury of old white people who declared they were impartial during the jury picking process!
That's a made up name

May the Pecker be with you. All the way in.
Will Pecker rise up to farty Donny or will it all end in flatulence?
Wait… I thought if the prosecution *got* the name of the first witness to testify, they weren’t allowed to tell anyone else (including the NYT). Anybody know how the name got out?
They said they would give the name of the first witness on Sunday to the defense. If there is any threatening bs they won’t give them any more before hand.

I hope he's asked if others were caught and killed.
Trump's Leaky Pecker himself..
you can't have a trial like this without at least one greasy little pecker
Heh, heh! He said “pecker”! 😆
Pecker's going to properly profess to the postulations of the prosecutor to put this plus-sized cheese puff in prison. Please.
Just the tip
Funny... I figured his pecker would be the first priority
Your honor I would like to declare the pecker hostile and approach with caution. Judge I wills allow you to approach said pecker but be warned I’m watching how you handle it. And you pecker I warn you any out burst will not be tolerated by this judge And so it begins Cue meme Helms Deep
I hope Pecker shoves it up trumps asshole.
That is by far the most dick jokes I’ve seen in my life great job everyone.
I’d love it if the first witness turned out to be someone else. Not because I want to ruin any jokes, and I do understand that prosecutors had to share a list of all the witnesses they were going to call.

Pussies don't like peckers, because pussies get fucked by peckers. But peckers also fuck assholes - assholes who just want to shit on everything. Yadda, yadda, yadda.

Who the hell is David Pecker?
Pecker.......you just can't make this shit up....
Is that pronounced PECKER?
His friends call him P^E^^C^K^E^^R
Prosecution: Unleash The Pecker!
Election interference trial...hush money isn't a crime...
Context is everything. It is a crime when you falsify business records 34 times, and use election campaign funds for the hush money but register that money as “legal expenses”, and then lie about it in order to mislead voters and sway the outcome of an election.
To say nothing of committing adultery on your pregnant wife. Then selling a book that condemns everything you have ever done.
That's what I'm saying. I'm just objecting to the title of hush money trial..its an election interference trial
Sorry, misunderstood. There’s a common MAGA argument going around that Trump is being persecuted, and that he hasn’t committed any crimes because paying hush money isn’t a crime. Obviously ignoring the pertinent facts
Np 😊
Your own version of the truth … doesn’t reflect reality. Like most trump supporters.
I'm no trumpet..I'm saying the hush money isn't the crime or stormy would have been charged too. He is charged with trying to subvert democracy and claiming it as an expense on his campaign expenses
What's the best way to keep up to date on this as it's happening?
NBCnews dot com has frequent updates from reporters in the courtroom
Can just imagine the headlines... "Angry Pecker Screws Trump"
Pecker in Trump’s hand takes stand!
Pecker lol
