I really wish Twitter and the rest of the internet as well would ban Trump.
If there was a tv advert saying "Give just £5 and if we get enough money we'll make sure Trump is banned from the entire internet" I'm sure they'd get donations from around the world. I'd donate.

Sentencing memo filed for Trump's former lawyer fixer Michael Cohen:

Around 4-5 years prison time, due to the seriousness of his crimes.

It's pretty scathing, have a read at the link above.

"Wilful tax evasion, false statements to financial institutions, illegal campaign contributions, false statements to Congress"

The Manafort stuff is out now too, looks like among various other lies he did indeed break his plea deal by communicating with administration officials and then lying to the FBI about it, they have text messages to prove it.

John Kelly, Trump’s Chief of Staff, to Leave White House

John F. Kelly, the retired Marine general tapped as chief of staff by President Trump last year to bring order to his chaotic White House, will leave the job by the end of the year, Mr. Trump said on Saturday, the latest departure from the president’s inner circle after a bruising midterm election for his party.

Mr. Trump, speaking with reporters on the White House lawn before departing for the Army-Navy football game in Philadelphia, said that he would announce a replacement for Mr. Kelly in the next day or two.

“John Kelly will be leaving — I don’t know if I can say ‘retiring,’” Mr. Trump said. “But he’s a great guy. John Kelly will be leaving at the end of the year.”

The leading candidate to replace Mr. Kelly is Nick Ayers, Vice President Mike Pence’s 36-year-old chief of staff and a Republican political operative, who possesses the kind of savvy about campaigns that Mr. Trump has craved. Mr. Kelly, a career military officer before becoming Mr. Trump’s first homeland security secretary, lacked such experience.

Crowdfunding site Patreon this week banned the accounts of several controversial public figures, part of a wider push by tech companies to de-platform users linked to the alt-right and far right.

The accounts of British conspiracy theorist YouTuber Carl Benjamin, better known as Sargon of Akkad, and U.S. far-right political commentator James Allsup, were removed Thursday.

Good exchange, that. I'm sure the Republicans talked about tubes and conspiracies and whatnot.
