"Damn, how can I get ahold of HER money?" And quickly thereafter, "wow, can I use this to delay my trials?"

That SOB married her there to get a tax exemption, and neither he or the kids bother to maintain the site, at least from what I last saw.

They are a disgrace, all of them.

The article points out her rulings against a ban on late term abortions in NJ, in favor of a Gambian refugee (where she excoriated the magistrate who questioned the refugee's application for asylum) and against freeing two detectives who allegedly protected a drug dealer. She seems to have been somewhat of a feminist (of the Barry Goldwater / Sandra Day O'Connor mold) who celebrated women's progress in society.

And the recordings of her slashing Donald to bits are extremely satisfying. She definitely had his number. She knew her brother is an asshole.

I'm not ready to dance on her grave.

But..I am dusting off my dancing shoes for when the Orange Asshole ® finally transitions to the great beyond. I may even take tap lessons for that glorious day.

President Biden did not do enough to stop the volcano from erupting, and Gym Jordan is going to hold an investigation on the matter.

I never thought the USA would have 1/2 a government of true clowns, I thought that only happened in banana republics.
