Quite the coincidence


Alina Habba: "Judge Merchan...has somehow randomly selected had Steve Bannon's case, had Allen Weisselberg's case...somehow, he randomly also gets Donald Trump. That's not the way the system works. You assign a case randomly...but in the new America, under the Biden Regime, we are sitting here in a politicization of all our judicial systems."

Fulton DA Fani Willis and Judge Scott McAfee have CRUISED to victory in their respective contests tonight.

Fani Willis leads by 79%.

Scott McAfee leads by 67%.

I guess prosecuting Trump is popular after all.

wait until she loses her law license.

[BriGuy]

still believing all those fake POLLS!

No, I don't believe the polls. I believe that, as in 2016 and 2020, Trump will do better than what the polls suggest by about 2 percentage points.

We’ll see just how popular it is . I wouldn’t be cracking that Grey Goose open yet if I were Fatty.

Georgia appeals court agrees to hear Trump's request to remove Fani Willis from his criminal case.

Everything pointing to Trump being found not guilty or a hung jury which will be the same result.

Even as Judge Aileen Cannon sits on the espionage case against Donald Trump, Special Counsel Jack Smith appears to be hard at work. A new document was unsealed, and it indicates that Smith suspected additional obstruction efforts by Trump. Other files are waiting to be unsealed, with Smith insisting that witness names be redacted to protect them, and Trump, of course, wants them unsealed (probably so that he can harass them), but according to Newsweek, the two sides have made a deal. It is obvious that Trump shouldn’t have taken those documents by his attempts to hide them, yet that doesn’t appear to make any different to Cannon, who, this month, postponed the trial indefinitely. According to reports, Cannon said she has eight “substantive” motions that will take until July for rulings. Given her rulings and confusion on certain laws, she probably needs three months to make sense of the motions. She needs to lose her job.

Earlier in May, Newsweek reported that former U.S. Attorney Barbara McQuade believes that Cannon is harming national security by holding up this trial. She specified what she meant: “What ally would share their intelligence secrets with us, knowing that Trump would regain access soon if elected, with no accountability for breaching their trust?” Many are wary of Cannon’s motives. Jennifer Rubin wrote an opinion piece about Cannon for the Washington Post. She thinks that, perhaps, “the federal trial may be too complicated for her.” Rubin went on to say that Cannon’s delays and other critical rulings show Cannon’s inexperience, including her asking the parties to write up jury instructions and her failure to understand the Presidential Records Act. That would take a quick read to understand. Perhaps she doesn’t want to understand. Legal experts are right there with Rubin.

When Cannon delayed the start of this trial indefinitely, Norm Eisen spoke to Newsweek to share his thoughts: “I’m not surprised, but I am disgusted. Whether she’s doing it out of partiality for the former president or is just a lousy jurist, this latest blunder by Judge Cannon takes the cake.” It’s hard to say which it might be for Cannon, but it is telling that the Eleventh Circuit Court of appeals has overturned her decisions numerous times. Eisen further said: “This case should have been tried to a verdict already and would have been if any normal judge had gotten it.” Several lawyers have said that Cannon is “out of her league” on this case, and they would love to see her recused. Why the special counsel hasn’t made that move yet is a mystery. She is obviously biased.
It is a damned shame that someone appointed to protect the liberties of citizens has gone so awry. She has been appointed to a lifetime job, and she can’t even respect the duties of that job. Will she use these same tactics when another criminal defendant appears before her, or are these reserved only for Donald Trump? Not only should she be recused, but she should also be kicked off the bench.

Tick tick tick …


That sound you hear is the clock running out against Team Lawfare .

Has anyone looked at the polls recently? Trump is completely dominating! I hope they find something else to charge Trump with and keep him on trial until November!

Not only does Trump lead in all the battleground states, but states which should be slam dunks for Biden are becoming battleground states. They are tied in New Hampshire. They are in a statistical tie in Minnesota - Minnesota..!!

Honest question (which I know you're too gutless to answer): Are you being deliberately dishonest, or are you just stupid?

Those results are each from democratic primaries. Obviously democrats are going to support the people prosecuting Trump. Meanwhile, Trump leads statewide by 6%.

Trump is not begging the Judge at all. He is only stating what will happen when Trump beats the case and the Judge is realized a fool.

Why is Team Trump begging Judge Merchan to dismiss the case against Trump?

The trial is almost over. Go for that full jury acquittal.

If the coverage of the case provided by Fox News and other conservative media outlets is accurate, than it should be a near certainty that it will only take a few minutes for the jury to deliver that not guilty verdict.

Considering how slam dunk everything is, the desire for the Judge to interfere with an unnecessary dismissal doesn't make a ton of sense.

Unless Team Trump isn't confident at all because they know the case isn't going the way conservative media is reporting things.

When did CNN become conservative media ?

Clown show with Cohen being a confirmed liar and thief now. Judge is so in bed with the Biden administration clearly. This case should be dropped. Corrupt legal system in NY!

This week, TFG will have his chance to say to his jury under oath the things he said outside the courtroom.

I’m sure that since he is telling the truth with nothing to hide and is a brave, strong, tough guy he will get on the stand to clear all this up, just like he promised.

And sure enough he again proves what a pathetic lying coward he truly is.

<sub>Fat Alvin’s “Star Witness”

Cohen admits he stole from Trump through his reimbursement</sub>


Michael Cohen admitted that he stole $30,000 from the Trump Organization when, as part of his reimbursement for the Stormy Daniels reimbursement, he requested $50,000 for a reimbursement for IT services, when Cohen had actually paid $20,000 for the services.

"You stole from the Trump Organization, correct?" defense attorney Todd Blanche asked.


"Yes, sir," Cohen said.

Blanche hammered Cohen, asking if he ever repaid the Trump Organization or "Did you ever have to plead guilty to larceny?"


"No sir," Cohen said.


At the defense table, Trump shook his head and pursed his lips.

Cohen remained calm during this questioning when Blanche raised voiced, almost shouting at Cohen.

The precedent for 14th Amendment disqualification

At least eight public officials have been formally adjudicated to be disqualified and barred from public office under Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment since its ratification in 1868.

Section 3, also known as the Disqualification Clause, has gained new relevance in the wake of the January 6th insurrection, when a violent mob that then-President Trump summoned and urged to “fight like h****” seized the United States Capitol to disrupt the peaceful transition of power. Adopted after the Civil War to protect American democracy from those who sought to destroy it, Section 3 disqualifies from office anyone who swore an oath to support the Constitution as a federal or state officer and then engaged in insurrection or rebellion against it!

Section 3 is not a criminal penalty, but rather is a qualification for holding public office in the United States that can be and has been enforced through civil lawsuits in state courts, among other means.


Missouri Laws 561.021 – Forfeiture of public office — disqualification

Except as provided in subsection 3 of this section, a person who pleads guilty or nolo contendere or is convicted under the laws of this state of a felony or under the laws of another jurisdiction of an offense which, if committed within this state, would be a felony, shall be ineligible to hold any public office, elective or appointive, under the government of this state or any agency or political subdivision thereof!
