Alina Habba's behavior both in the courtroom and outside the courtroom on Monday stunned legal experts, as Habba routinely made a complete fool of herself and tried to engage in mudslinging with attorney general Letitia James. Experts said that it is evidence from her behavior that not only does she not know how to try cases, but that she also doesn't even know the basics about how to act in front of a judge - and both of those things are going to doom her client.
Also, late last week, Judge Aileen Cannon issued a stern warning to prosecutors in the Trump documents case, telling them that she would punish them and ignore their future filings if they didn't stick to the 220 word limit that she had set for them. The offending filing was where prosecutors warned Cannon that she was getting played by Trump, but she apparently didn't want to hear it. Calls for Cannon to be removed from the case are growing louder, but legal experts appear to agree that it is too late to have her removed.
And Marjorie Taylor Greene managed to shock the entire country this week by not only saying something that was true, but admitting a harsh truth about how bad the Republican Party is for American voters. During a brief conversation with a CNN reporter, Greene said that the American public is sick of Republicans never doing anything for them, and she admitted that she's also tired of this. But Greene's admission comes with a caveat, showing that she still doesn't really understand why voters don't like her Party.
Finally, most of the attention from the media following Donald Trump's testimony in the fraud trial was on his erratic behavior and the stern warnings to him and his lawyers from the judge. But in between the theatrics, there was actual legal questioning, and at one point Trump clearly admitted that they submitted incorrect property values to banks. That is literally what he was sued for doing, the very thing he swore he never did, and then he admitted to it on the stand.
