In the New York case against President Trump’s business operations, far left Judge Arthur Engoron previously issued a gag order forbidding President Trump from criticism of any court employee. Today, Judge Engoron levied a $5,000 fine against President Trump because a Truth Social media post made prior to the order was visible on the Trump campaign website.
This judge is nuts. Literally, nuts.
(Reuters) – Donald Trump was hit on Friday with a $5,000 fine by a New York judge for violating a gag order barring the former U.S. president from disparaging court staff during a civil fraud trial in which he is accusing of unlawfully inflating his net worth to dupe lenders.
Future violations by Trump could be punished by steeper fines and possible imprisonment, Justice Arthur Engoron said in an order. The judge noted that the violation appeared inadvertent, but added, “Make no mistake: future violations, whether intentional or unintentional, will subject the violator to far more severe sanctions.”
Engoron said in the order that a social media post by Trump attacking the judge’s clerk – which was deleted from the former president’s Truth Social platform – had remained visible on his campaign website two weeks after he had ordered it taken down. (More)
As President Trump mentioned in one of his short video clips, other businesses are taking notice of what is going on with the NY justice system taking away ownership of the entire Trump Organization, and those businesses are choosing to not set up their business in New York.
My question remains – how long before higher courts stop this show before there is no coming back from the edge?
It better be soon, these activist insurgents – judges,etc have destroyed our justice system all in the name of insanity ruling the roost.
The root cause of their insanity is the fact that they are owned and compromised. They judge accordingly.
IMHO – Chief SCOTUS Justice John Roberts is perfectly fine with letting rogue lower court judges destroy President Trump. Roberts was apparently fine with the 2020 election fraud so what’s changed? (Nothing as far as he’s concerned).
Whats changed is despite Roberts being the Chief Justice, this is no longer “the Roberts Court” it is “the THOMAS Court” and this became evident during the last session, and will become MORE evident, during this new session.
The ending of any “Constitutional right to abortion” or similar Constitutional right to Affirmative action, while affirming there IS a Constitutional right to Religious liberty, and restricting overbearing EPA, these are examples of THOMAS, not wisshy washy Roberts, asserting his influence.
And, he and Alito are jyst getting started; SCOTUS can only take cases that are brought TO them, they can’t originate, but this term we are going to see some doozies, so strap in and hold on!
Dutch, I sure hope that you are correct. I’ve gotten the impression over the past year that Justice Clarence Thomas has become tired and is ready to retire. All the garbage the Lying Media is spinning about his wife Ginny certainly doesn’t help.
Or maybe the attacks on the Mrs. have reinvigorated the senior Justice’s determination to continue…….and see President Trumps rightful return to the Oval Office. .
The Supreme Court just stayed the injunction the 5th Circuit and district court had issued forbidding the government from colluding with social media to suppress speech. The government is now free to work with social media to suppress speech despite all the evidence that came out. Alito, Thomas, and Gorsuch dissented. That could change after the court hears the case, but this is a bad sign, and shows me that Roberts, Kavanaugh, and of course Barrett are fine with government speech suppression, just like they were fine with lockdowns and other authoritarian measures. It’s not Thomas’s court; the Roe overturning was a Pyrrhic victory at best. The left has been winning elections right and left ever since. Barrett is like Rehnquist and believes government can do whatever it wants when it comes to individuals. She is not one to be counted on in cases of government overreach, and Thomas and Alito won’t be there too much longer as they are getting up there age wise.
Says WHO?
“To consider judges as the ultimate arbiters of all constitutional questions is a very dangerous doctrine indeed, and one which would place us under the despotism of an oligarchy.” – Thomas Jefferson
Well, Miss Libby, it certainly will be coming to that, for sure. Andrew Jackson had the same challenge.
Kavanough cried; a MAGA male does not
cry unless it is on behalf of someone else
being injured
Barret seems out of her depth
and Gorsuch acts mostly conservative
Yes. I share Your perspective as well. The top court is unreliable and is being controlled by anti-Trump entities.
Roe was overturned but the issue was merely reverted to the states. The communists have never stopped infiltrating top offices in state governments with anti-Constitutional radicals who control laws, law enforcement, elections, and courts, not to mention school administrations as well. They’ve played the long game for decades without much resistance, and we see the results now.
And a significant number (varies by state) of the Republican politicians in seemingly red states are also corrupt and controlled by globalist money or are perverts or cheats being blackmailed by Leftwing radicals or other anti-Constitutional entities.
Truth be told, we who endorse MAGA and President Trump may be a large faction- maybe 50 to 70 million solid MAGA conservatives- but we don’t have anywhere near a majority of state governments on our side.
Its a long hard battle that we face. Not shrinking from it, but not going to fantasize about it either.
And remember how Biden went after Thomas during his confirmation hearing!!!
Yes. That script was written by the Communist Deep State puppeteers who even today still control the White House, the Executive Branch, and most critical parts of the federal government.
Better pray that God keeps our beloved, revered, honored Justice Thomas in good health, body and mind.
Thanks Dutch! Hope and pray you’re right!
Roberts is compromised. He has Epstein Island in his history, so he has to follow orders.
Illegally adopted children is what they are holding on him.
how can illegally adopted be such a big deal to him? I bet they were trafficked.
Roberts was spied upon by Obama, Brennan, and Clapper. They used THE HAMMER to spy on judges, to bribe and coerce them, as well as to spy on innocent Americans.
https://www.theamericanreport.com
he was also fine with obamacare being declared a tax
Yep
That’s because like the judges in the Trump cases, Roberts is owned and compromised.
I bet you the CIA has shown Roberts pics of him doing something. That is their way
A lot of people share that same suspicion.
NYS will be in ruin. Soon.
NYC has been to the brink several times.
It’s not coming back one of these days, sooner now, than later.
Wait!! What??? It hasn’t been a sewer forever?
Remembers that Dickwad Dinkins, and how ruinous he was for NYC? The out of control crime, debt, garbage on the streets, etc?
These dipwads on The View were blabbering on about Guiliani, and “what has he ever done?”… I was aghast at their absurd ignorance!!
Just got NY back to law and order, put THE ENTIRE NY/East Coast Mob in prison, guided NY thru 9- 11. Just those few piddling things. Dumbasses.
I don’t think any higher court can or would “stop it” until after the case is finished at this level. What other businesses choose to do, based on how this case is currently going, is legally irrelevant because they aren’t parties to the case. You finish the case in process, and then you can appeal over any issues you believe are unfair or illegal.
If NY is perceived as generally hostile to business as a result of this case, fewer companies will set up there. That’s true in any state or city. It’s why there are different tax incentives in virtually every state, and why those perks and rules change as different administrations get elected.
Trump has companies and properties all over the globe. If he can’t do business in NY, he can shift his HQ to someplace else. NJ would be a relatively easy move. Or Florida. There’s no “edge” to come back from if you’re a billionaire CEO, and big companies do take hits regularly.
Agreed. Donald the Master of The Deal could recover some sunk costs AND give us all a bigly chuckle by selling Trump Tower to Hochul and Adams for use as “migrant” housing.
I’m wondering if he just can’t get rid of the building by bringing them down rather than leave them to be used or bought by another entity.
Roberts? Don’t make me
Laugh
Is it possible that the higher courts can do nothing while the “hoax procedure” is ongoing?
A judgement has to be issued prior to their involvement?
Indeed, no reasonable person can think that any judge is above any and all laws by himself. We are all in the cross hairs of a corrupt judicial system.
Never. They’re all in on it.
I understand that actors need to find other work while they’re on strike, but I don’t understand how Larry David got a gig on the bench.
Oh, thats funny!
haha
WHAT??
Black Lives Matter Leader Stands Behind J6 Prisoners, Endorses Trump
‘This is what the government does to those who express independent thought and want to stand up for what they believe,’ said Mark Fisher.
https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/exclusive-black-lives-matter-leader-stands-behind-j6-prisoners-endorses-trump-5513609?src_src=goodeveningnoe&src_cmp=gv-2023-10-20&cta_utm_source=goodeveningnoecta&est=clPoVZBk3VlBytzWFSwHM3KbQ2QwftnvFxe%2FAxCoIFg1XDbIDWLCwjjK4gHeDw%3D%3D
Clarifying, he is the co-founder of BLM RHODE ISLAND,……NOT the National BLM founded by several avowed marxists, that used the $ to buy mansions and funneled the rest thru act blue to finance DNC.
When BLM first arose, many long time local black “activists” got on the “BLM bandwagon” and subsequently rebuked the National BLM group and its founders, and calling it/them out as a SCAM.
The article this link leads to is behind paywall, but I saw enough to see this is NOT someone directly linked to the NATIONAL BLM org.
Yes, that pay wall thing is getting ever more common these days, isn’t it? Some sites even have their comments section locked up unless you pay.
Boy this judge Engeron sure has a punchable face. Just saying.
Beat me to it!!
It appears this guy enjoys being a character.
Who Is Arthur Engoron, Judge Over Trump Fraud Civil Case Trial? (businessinsider.com)
As I thought- a jerk lefty liberal
Cartoon world villian-liberal-crazy
I’m getting sickly albino vibes from him
Yuk.
he is smirking
Careful punching that one. It appears to have leprocy.
Looks more like AIDS to me.
Sort of good news when I read a judge had been killed but then it wasn’t him.
That judge has a face that just screams to be punched.
He reminds me of the nerdy kid who wore a pocket protector in high school, but wasn’t the brightest bulb, and resented those with more brains, more money, more abilities, and especially, more popularity.
This is the kind of person who should never be allowed to hold power over anyone else.
Our Congress is chock full of those former picked last in gym class types.
Looks like someone already punched him a couple times but you know what they say “third time’s the charm”.
Adviser Linked to Pence, Kemp Working to Undermine Republican Speaker Nominee, Jim Jordan
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2023/10/20/adviser-linked-pence-kemp-working-undermine-republican-speaker-nominee-jim-jordan/
Interesting how so many saboteurs of PDJT/MAGA are former Pence staff /advisors. And that putrid Kemp–what a repulsive cretin he is with that smirky mouth of his. UGH
Why? why is he complying with any of this?
Because he’s a law-abiding citizen, that’s why. He’s trying to work within the system that we have, which is supposed to be “justice is blind”. Except when it comes to Trump, they rewrite the entire script. What they’re doing to Trump It is a damn shame!
when the law is immoral and the governing body is evil, it is our DUTY to resist it.
The courts (plural) haven’t finished yet, each level has an opportunity to provide justice. When the process is complete we’ll know for certain if justice prevails.
By which time it’ll be 2025 in the United Socialist States of America.
You really want Engoron to put him in jail, huh? Or increase the judgment amount? Strategy matters, Muley. Mr. Trump has been in court thousands of times. He knows the ins and outs better than we do.
Not complying definitely does not work in all situations. They make reality TV out of all the defendants who try to pull that “sovereign citizen” nonsense, which never works.
I interpret MB’s comment to be in a broader, more general sense, and not neccesarily specifically advocating that PDJT “resist” by refusing to comply.
Beyond that, I actually don’t have much of a problem with this Judges gag order; it is specific to employees of the Court, and IIRC, thats all.
Chutkins gag order goes quite a bit further, to cover both witnesses, prosecutors and the Judge.
Given Smiths propensity for leaking, it gives him an unfair advantage “in the Court of Public Opinion” which is where all of these cases are actually being adjudicated, and where PDJT has a distinct and overwhelming “home court” advantage.
Idiot prosecutors, you never brace a bear in its cave, or a lion in its den.
If he does order President Trump in jail, it will help the President. Donal Trump is a great American, and he has the support of the American people. The judge is a totalitarian punk.
If he orders jail on Trump, I classify that as an assassination attempt.
Probably most of the prisoners would love to have PDJT in their jail. He’d have them eating out of his hand in no time.
Or maybe it’s a blessing. Pray for DJT have faith and follow our Lord.
Failure to comply allows the judge more power over you.
Okay, between this and the insane budget request the only thing that makes sense to me is that the Uniparty is actively TRYING provoke someone to the point one of these cretins is lynched.
Yes, they would LOVE some violence from MAGA. I expect a false flag to get the party started.
The Real Image Of Mr. Arthur Engoron!!!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roland_Freisler
Thanks for the link. It’s a good example of a product of a weaponized judicial system. The US left does appear to be morphing into the Fourth Reich.
been there, doing more and more now
No. They’re already there. Just haven’t finished consolidating power.
Judge Roland got his, alright. (“Directly” from the sky above)
While his kangaroo court was in session. Probably a 500-pounder courtesy of the 8th Air Force. 👍😁
The hanging judge back in the Western days.
He’ll never buy himself another drink.
The natives called this ‘counting coup.’
COUNTING COUP
http://plainshumanities.unl.edu/encyclopedia/figures/300/egp.war.013.jpg A depiction of counting coup
Counting coup, or striking an enemy, was the highest honor earned by warriors participating in the intertribal wars of the Great Plains. Native peoples recognized precise systems of graduated war honors, and usually the greatest exploit was counting coup.
Key to a man’s success in Plains combat was demonstrating his own courage by proving superiority over his opponent and, in a competitive sense, over his own comrades. Killing was part of war, but showing courage in the process was more important for individual status. This was best accomplished by risking one’s life in charging the enemy on foot or horseback to get close enough to touch or strike him with the hand, a weapon, or a “coupstick.”
Humiliating the enemy also played a part in this fighting, as illustrated by an account from the Jesuit missionary Father Pierre-Jean De Smet. In De Smet’s 1848 visit to the Oglala Lakotas, the Oglala leader Red Fish related to the priest how his men had just suffered a disgraceful defeat at the hands of the Crows. The Crows killed ten Oglalas, then chased the others for a distance. The Crows then were content merely to repeatedly count coup on their enemies with clubs and sticks, thus demonstrating to the Oglalas that they were not worth the ammunition needed to kill them.
This idiot is right out of central casting. Can’t place exactly who I’m thinking of, but there’s been a few in movies over the years… pretty sure one was “And Justice For All”.
What an ass.
God forgive me, but I just hate these horrible people. They blatantly break the law and destroy our once great nation, with no consequence.
Somehow we have to channel this hate into some kind of productive action…..it’s hard when you feel so powerless.
Trump needs to pay it in pennies, and make the judge count it!
Every time I look at this guy I think of hippi Bernie.
Are they brothers?
Prolly, in-bred bros…..
Instinct..
.
I am reading all the other headlines from GP and Brietbart, Fox, etc. it is all kabuki theater to forment a crisis. They want conservatives to lash out and start shooting left wing people. DONT FALL FOR IT, keep you powder dry. PDJT has this, let him resolve it.
well I don’t know
we would be rid of many
not a bad strategy LOL
Fining Trump for a tweet he made BEFORE the gag order was issued? Has the judge ever heard of ex post facto laws?
The Trump team didn’t remove the tweet after the gag order was issued. Trump has enemies everywhere.
Now that Sydney Powell has entered a plea of guilty and is willing to testify against Trump how does this change the landscape? With all of the proof that exists of election fraud could none of it be used by her defense? I smell bananas and see kangaroos in these courts!
What makes you believe that Sydney or any other persecuted Trump associate will testify AGAINST President Trump?
You just ASSUME that because that is what the “over charging, over zealous, communists” want you to believe.
Don’t fall for the BS.
I’m with you Abigail. I have this sneaking suspicion that pleading to a minor charge (thereby not going broke via lawfare), testifying “against” President Trump as a witness, allows for a broader range of DISCOVERY to be used. It feels like a “be careful of what you wish for” for these corrupt, moronic, inbred, delusional, petty and intellectually deficient DAs and Judges. Just sayin…
don’t you fall for the opposite BS
She agreed to testify “honestly”…not “against Trump”. And she did not plead guilty to the racketeering conspiracy felony charge…they dropped it.
The attorney for the other person who pled guilty said his client could also be called to testify…but didn’t see anything in his case that would be against Trump anyway.
Trump’s lawyers should appeal everything these clown judges and prosecutors have said, done or leaked. Tie up the appeals courts and if they don’t act in a timely manner, start appealing to the Supreme Court and be public about it. Something needs to put pressure on the Supremes to stop this bastardization of our judicial system.
Keep in mind that the SCOTUS sat on their hands in the case of the fraudulent election.
That was soul crushing, I held out hope they would rectify the fraud–
How do I donate to the Trump campaign directly?
Read the comment by Wvvet, and then the next, by Deguello, as well as those above.
We don’t “shoot leftists” when they provoke us with this lawfare attacks against PDJT,…..we DONATE.
Hence, PDJT is fined $5000, and he takes in $5 million in donations, from the $1 million in “free media” coverage he gets.
So CHILL, everyone,…and DONATE.
You can go through Winred (puke), or write a check.
and I thought Judge Ito was the biggest moron to sit on the bench, besides that pervert using the penis pump, that is, until we got a look at this useless specimen of a human being!
How a man this defective gets to sit in judgement of anyone, is truly unbelievable!
In fact, this farce is really mind blowing!
…and what a great illustration!
This is no judge. He is a totalitarian puppet. He is on a mission to destroy President Trump, but in the end, what goes around comes around. Evil might win early skirmishes, but evil will lose the battle. There are no cases in history where evil wins in the long run.
There aren’t? The hill dog is still walking around free along with her perv husband. Joe still hasn’t touched, nor has #44.
It ain’t over I suspect.
I am thinking this so called judge is still salty over being slapped by the appellate court. It will be great watching the rest of his rulings get ripped to shreds when this circus is over with but by then AG James and the rest of the lunatics will have already celebrated a headline. The process is the punishment.
I HATE these people
SC Roberts, crawl out from under your chair NOW!
There are a good number of analysts (and I might agree with this actually), that Trump should go all in and force this absurd judge to put him in jail. NOW. Rather than waiting for months and then having this happen. Call this idiot judge’s bluff.
The made-in-NYC-nazi judge looks like a caricature of some fusion of Batman villians.
That’s an insult to Batman villains!
These kind of people never made it back alive from the Vietnam battlefield! Friendly fire cured the problem! By any other name. it’s called fragging!
Trump should refuse to pay the fine.
Who knew there are people out there with thinner skin than the Kenyan?
They’re all like that. It’s in the leftwing DNA.
Shades of “ex post facto “
This weirdo should be completing psychological questionnaires in an intake facility somewhere.
What the judge did is not by any stretch legal. The state bar should remove his license.
It’s New York, remember?
The “judge” reminds me of a gargoyle that one might see on the eaves of a middle-ages cathedral. (He’s probably planning to retire, soon, so he’s perfectly OK to allow the left’s handlers to use him and his office to harry Trump.)

This is using the justice system to destroy the system of justice. It happens in all tyrannies and totalitarian states.
Sheer madness from this so-called judge! Do not allow any apologies from your attorneys or even think about paying a fine. Publicly donate it to a charity, like Little Sisters of the Poor.
The court is only disparaging itself.
Point fingers and chuckle.
Yes, point and laugh. Meme the hell out of this judge. After all, he only gagged POTUS, not all of us.
There’s a fool born every minute. Someone to step in and make things right? One judge out of all the judges in NY came forward to put a stay I think it was. Why do I keep thinking of Rome and its falling? Wasn’t that due to the senate and the over reaching of their leaders?
This “judge” is a disgrace.
Yeah, this judge is gonna discover what his nasty, petty, vindictive behavior will bring him … And eternal bath in the Lake of Fire.
Woo-hoo!!

Sundance, Why was my post taken down? Is Jan Hapler Hayes a conspiracy theorist?
this judge should go after Real criminals not playing a political against president Trump,
A criminal going after criminals? Surely you jest.
When will the higher courts reign this nutjob in?
Judge Yellowteeth Engomoron is truly a petty little man
I just hope he and the AG are fully vaxxed and up to date on their boosters.
This guy just oozes creepy.
Great picture of the real true President!
I guess it didn’t matter whether or not it was true, eh?
This judge is a biased crackpot with an even more-biased law clerk.
