Twelve New Yorkers have begun deliberations on the 34 felony counts against Donald Trump in the first criminal trial of an American president. He is accused of falsifying business records in connection with a payment to a porn star.
From this article it sounds like that’s not all his news sources and the Truth stuff was through a repost bot. He also said he followed Michael Cohen.
Second juror: ‘I’ll try to keep an open mind’
The second juror is a married man who works in investment banking.
His hobbies include hiking, music and concerts, and he said he reads “basically everything” — including Trump’s Truth Social posts through an account that reposts them on the social platform X.
The man also said he follows Michael Cohen, Trump’s ex-fixer who made the hush money payment at the center of the case, on X, but he assured Trump’s attorney he would be able to put aside any opinions about Cohen.
“I’ll try to keep an open mind,” the man told prosecutors during questioning.
Sus for sure, but he’s not actually on Truth. Seems like an extremely risky juror though. Kind of odd that he says he reads “basically everything”, but apparently only if it’s posted on Twitter, and only Truth deserved mention in the media consumption questionnaire.
“Reads everything” sound like someone who’s “rejected MSM”. As soon as some actually uses MSM in communication I know I can check out of that conversation and they’ve detached from reality.
Juror 2 is an investment banker that gets all his news from Twitter and Truth Social. I don’t know how they let him sit in on this one.

Hearing the evidence must have been a real shock to their bubble.
