At this point in time finding Donald Trump guilty of anything, any crime at all, is just a matter of Judge Juan Merchan following through on expectations.
The entire world is watching what happens in New York City through the prism of ridiculous lawfare and politics. No intellectually honest observers believe this is a trial about substance, guilt, criminal activity or innocence therein. The illusion of a nonprejudicial justice system has long past and everyone can see the extreme politicization taking place in Judge Merchan’s courtroom.
Finding President Trump guilty of a crime is seemingly a foregone conclusion. Even the White House is saying Joe Biden will deliver remarks to the nation from the official executive office as soon as the guilty verdict is delivered {SEE HERE}.
Judge Merchan has yet to release the public version of jury instructions, however he previously decided last week that the jurors do not need to agree on a predicate crime in order to fund President Trump guilty of trying to hide one.
{SOURCE}
Yes, you read that correctly…. The jurors do not need to believe a crime was committed in order to convict Trump of unlawfully hiding a crime he never committed. Let that insufferable Lawfare logic sink in.



How has this perversion and mockery of “justice” been allowed to get this far??
How many more so called “judges” just like this Marxist are there polluting the judiciary?
I’m now fresh out of words….for the moment at least.
The perversion of justice has gotten this far in part because the Republican controlled House is MIA. Far too many representatives are corrupt and protecting themselves and their corporate donors, instead of putting the country first.
Establishment republicans are like moderate muslims. They wont kill you but they still think you should be killed.
This is nothing new; Establishment Republicans were “MIA” or actively working to destroy PDJT from day one, with McConnell being PDJT’ s nemesis.
Establishment Repubs (Bushies) did everything they could to undermine Reagan, and his agenda as well.
Establishment Republicans (Rockerfeller and Romney Sr.) conspired with Dems, the I/C and the MSM to undermine Goldwaters campaign and assasinate JFK.
Establishment Republicans are an intrinsic existential threat to our Republic, and must be destroyed.
I endorse Dutchman’s above observations 100%.
Truth!
Further to Dutch’s points about the disgusting RINOs who are also trying to destroy our President Trump and the MAGA movement, the Libertarians have apparently endorsed RFK Jr. as their nominee.
This is the kind of insider baseball that should have been foreseen and dealt with WAY BEFORE it happened. The RNC and GOP top honchos who are well educated in the ways of Swamp politics should have been on top of this from Day One.
We do not need the damn Libertarians coming in to f**** things up at this point in the campaign. They told us months ago that they were going to do this. Where TF were the dumb ass Repubicans??
Having dealt with the Libertarians on the local level, I can tell you that they are for the most part mean spirited, anti-MAGA, Never Trumpers and basically whores.
They had their chance and managed to get on the ballot in NY, then something happened and they lost the line.
This was probably another set up to try and derail our President and it must be dealt with immediately.
Where are all the people on Team Trump who are supposed to be protecting him??

I’m not sure these Boos were from Libertarians most of them looked like BLM…
I don’t know, madeline. Libertarians have a contrary streak a mile wide. I know it’s hard to believe that Libertarians can be that stupit. That Saturday night so-called Libertarian Convention was a game changer for me.
You would know, Seneca, per your courageous and patriotic run for office. The voters in the constituency you ran for office in voted unwisely. You would have been splendid and office holder.
Their grievous loss.
Thank you very much for your kind words! As far as the article I posted, I was wrong about RFL being nominated by the Libertarians as was pointed out by another sharp eyed Treeper.
I did go back and make the correction.
As far as my own political career in small town Nueva York, it has been the best lesson possible in the vagaries of our election system, top to bottom.
Here are the facts:
Up till fairly recently I never would have believed that there was cheating in my small town in my small county until I got involved with a NY election integrity group.
My eyes were opened by the data they had researched. CHEATING IS EVERYWHERE, IN EVERY TOWN, COUNTY AND PRECINCT.
Unless Team Trump can use the available tech to stop the steal NOW, it will be too late on Nov. 5th.
I concur – libertarians are basically socialist contrarians – they are rude, immature and ill informed. I could say more, but no need, we all saw it on display…
hanson, the only thing I would change in your statement here is “they are rude, immature and their default settings malfunction at critical points.
I’d like you to say more because now I’ve got to try to explain this happy horse sh***t to my friends and family.
No not socialist at all. It’s more everybody for themselves and all of them for the devil.
Actually I have always defined Libertarians as socially liberal and fiscally conservative; meaning you can do whatever you want to do, BUT you have to pay for it yourself in someway, either financially, physically, or spiritually.
Seneca the Elder,
In the article you offered, I read, RFK Jr. was “nominated” to become their nominee, but did not get enough delegates to actually become the Libertarian nominee.
Subheadline from your source, right below the C=SPAN video clip:
Kennedy was defeated for the nomination in the first round of voting
Your submitted Source: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13461623/rfk-jr-libertarian-trump-biden-party-presidential-nomination.html
I am not trying to argue with you,( I actually agree with ya for the most part of your comment above..) I am only replying to clear up that RFK Jr. is Not the Libertarian nominee.
Have a Great Memorial Day~! GOD Bless~!~
🙂
JB- many, many thanks for the correction! And thank the good Lord that he is NOT the nominee.
I had a very hectic day today with our family here for the holiday and I admit that I was distracted.
As it turns out, and wonderful news, you are correct and he will not be the nominee.
Sorry for any confusion, weeping or gnashing of teeth, my friends!
You are welcome & I hope I helped out others as well, by trying to make things more clear for any who may have been confused.
Hope the rest of the Memorial Day weekend goes well for ya, & GOD Bless~!
To JB and others: please check out this article about the thing that the Libertarians chose for their nominee. And have your barf bag ready:
https://notthebee.com/article/rip-libertarian-party-get-a-load-of-the-goober-libertarians-just-nominated-as-their-presidential-candidate-
I was sympathetic to much of the Libertarian world, especially in the Ron Paul runs (was anti-Bush, McCain, Romney), and I can’t understand how legit L’s could be taken in by one-trick-pony RFK – pure Socialist with barely one issue of substance.
Yes. And I always was never taken in by one-trick-pony RFK. Despite all that Russell Brand says. I understand RFK lost in round one.
Well the top GOP well-versed Swamp Critters ARE the ones wanting rid of us and Trump.
You are right on this one, Seneca. This is not the first time in my life to be embarrassed by my association with Libertarians but it’s the first time I have to hide myself in shame. That little episode at the Libertarian Nation Convention was a deal breaker for me. Can’t associate with rabble, if you know what I mean.
To intense and all my Treeper friends, before we go any further with this Libertarian stuff, please check out what, not who the Libs just nominated.
Have your barf bag ready!
https://notthebee.com/article/rip-libertarian-party-get-a-load-of-the-goober-libertarians-just-nominated-as-their-presidential-candidate-
Oh, Lord. (Intense, shakes her head in resignation.) We’ll never be able to explain this.
The Uniparty at work. It’s why everyday I am more and more proud of my user name on this website.
I agree, there is no opposition party.
This Attorney General leaves the MOST bitter taste in my mouth…. retch
Rope for sale.
Strong and itchy.
Can be used multiple times.
^^^^^ LOVE
Not from BabylonBee: A radical muslim is the one who wants to kill you, a moderate muslim is the one who wants the radical muslim to kill you!!
Thank you.
wrong. the repubicon caucus is part of the perversion. if we want an un-perverted system , it will need to be built from the ground up and over-take and replace the current system.
Well, in order for that to happen, massive #’s of MAGA people, who currently don’t know squat about how a Political party works or how to build one, will need to learn.
Most do not have a clue, where the actual political POWER is, within a party and they focus their attention on Federal or National as opposed to State, and on elected PUBLIC officials, at the expence of elected PARTY officials.
Its like we have this old clunker car, sitting on blocks in the front yard.
And some in the household, who are clueless about how cars actually work, are saying “Oh, that POS is beyond saving, we should scrap it, and build our own new car, from the ground up!”
If you can’t get an already assembled car (party) up and properly running, because of your ignorance of how cars (party’s) work, HOW in the HELL do you suppose you are going to construct one, grom “the ground up”?
Great analogy. Could be applied to lots of things.
Will you teach those who don’t know, please?
Start organizing! You see the need, do something about it!
NAILED IT like a hammer.
Anyone who wants to start a new party should try running for local office in your own town on an “independent” line, one not affiliated with Dem, Rep, Cons or Libertarian if available.
The it’s set up in NY, it’s almost impossible to do and you can never even come close to winning.
Seneca, it is the same in your neighborhood to the south. Pennsylvania is a political sewer.
In my locale, the vast majority of local Republican voters simply cannot stomach the idea that the PA GOP is not at all what it purports itself to be. There is much public clinging to the Republican Party image of smaller government, lower taxes, etc., with little to no interest in trusting their eyes, ears, and lived experience. Smells like beaucoup fear to me.
“If we don’t admit to the existence of the hidden agenda, then it doesn’t exist.”
Right now the organization is advertising itself as Trump supporters – all in! We’ll see how this little maneuver shakes out on the heels of 11/5/24. I would wager real money that it will be the same knife in our backs, and in PDJT’s, as they delivered in regard to 11/3/20, even with – and in spite of – a “Republican win” for control of the Oval.
There are truly good, but naive, people working inside the Party at the County levels: keeping the Party’s physical offices open, answering the phones, and doing their best to represent what the Republican Party still claims to be.
Locally, these good people believe everything they are told from the State Party operatives, who just happen to be ever so closely connected to the “Republicans” employed inside the County Bureau of Elections.
I leave you to draw your own conclusions regarding the final statement in the last paragraph above.
Fear is a strong motivator to keep eyes, ears, and mouths tightly closed against the Truth.
Thanks for your reply! I have been politically active in my neck of the woods for decades. I am a lifelong registered Rep except for a few months when I changed my registration to Libertarian so that I could run for town board without getting all those signatures.
The sad truth is that all the chicanery we read about that’s happening nationally is also happening in our small towns and villages.
I never thought that all those nice people who work for the board of elections would be such cheaters and fraudsters but they are, and the worst of the lot are the RINOs.
In my county the Repubs who are in power hate MAGA REPUBLICANS like me.
Brilliant analogy.
How many have a file with an Epstein video, a CIA dossier a signed confession for a future challenge to secure theiroffshore accounts……….I wonder?
Its actually much simpler than that. No one in the Senate or Congress can be elected or reelected without access to the UNLIMITED campaign funding, which only the RNC or DNC, and DCCC or RNCC can provide.
If your opponent, from the “other party” has access to that UNLIMITED $, and you don’t, you lose.
In 2022, we saw it clearly as McConnell and McCarthy and Ronna withheldfunds from MAGA candidates, who then lost.
At which point the Mc’s completed the self-fulfilling prophecy “See, we TOLD you MAGA are too extreme, and ABORTION killed them!”
We can learn something from Bernie. Specifically how to fund campaigns.
Think about the power of a few million $5 donations directly into a candidates coffers.
Where there’s a will, there’s a way & in the process we force the RNC, NRCC & NRSC to bankrupt themselves.
The coup continues. We are just lucky that they haven’t killed him off.
It’s a good thing he wasn’t home during the raid on his house. That certainly seemed to be their goal.
Do you actually believe that?
“Oh, gee we were really HOPING PDJT would be home, so sorry we missed him!” like they could not ascertain his schedule?!!
Anyone who thinks this was an attemped “hit” has to see this is the worst planned hit, evah.
Competence is not a hallmark of the FIB.
Then why would they approve deadly force?
It may not have been an attempted hit, but we all know they would’ve been ecstatic if something bad had accidentally happened.
Unless President Trump got wind of the raid and absented himself, shall we say, on short notice.
Remembering how he set up at his Bedminster Club right after he was inaugurated as it was discovered the WH were bugged.
A possibility?
If you are talking about the judge, I would agree.
Fear not.
Like SOH Johnson, Judge Merchan is just another dead man walking, sold out to the highest bidder.
May God have mercy on their souls.
Trust God. Fear not.
As Saint Padre Pio said, “Pray, hope, and don’t worry. “
I like it. Good philosophy!
So are they.
Should they perpetrate that, or permit that, they will receive no trial nor any effort to ascertain how severe their consequences shall be.
They would condemn their entire Derp State to a complete slaughter devoid of mercy or qualms over personal culpability.
Yup, while I pray daily for his safety, if they touch a hair on his head, may GOD have mercy on them, cause thats where they will have to go, to seek any mercy,…and I’ll be sending em off.
I genuinely wonder if they can be THAT stupid.
SO MANY people, world-wide, are praying for DJT, and I know genuine prayer can work miracles.
I also know, as Fr Chad Ripperger, a 15-year exorcist, has stated, “Sin makes you stupid”. And the derps are nothing if not sinful and apparently unrepentant.
They were ready and prepared to “Ashli Babbitt” Trump during the Mar a Lago raid, if necessary.
if her throat would be slit, that image would be more accurate.
then they rape her
Their proxy Alvin Bragg is doing that right now…
“He was a fattish man of paralyzing stupidity, a mass of imbecile enthusiasm –one of those completely unquestioning, devoted drudges on whom, more even than on the Thought Police, the stability of the party depended.”
~Orwell (of course)
Because there is no morality in them, Quoheleth.
Power and the maintaining of it is all. They will do anything to keep it. There are no moral barriers which give them pause. They crossed the line long ago.
Their motto is “By any means necessary”.
They are creatures of the fetid sewer, and have absolutely no fear of showing themselves as such.
The judiciary in the main should be alarmed. The repugnant antics of Bragg, James, and judges like Merchan and too many others whose names we all know paint the whole system and all like them as Berian corruptocrats.
If I were a judge with any power to right this heinous wrong after the predictable ” verdict” is delivered and who had any honour, I would make haste to do so…lest I be tarred with the same filthy brush.
Are there any judges like that? I dare say few.
I suspect as this abominable travesty reaches the end of Act I on Tuesday we will find out.
Take heart! Whatever happens, the cruel and illegal lawfare verdicts will not separate us from our support for President Trump. Damn the torpedoes and full steam ahead. Every beat- down they try to do to him only makes us stronger. Fools that they are!! They are bereft of any human goodness. They have fallen in to the ditch and don’t even know it!!
I’ve been wanting someone to make this meme relevant to the circumstances we face in several areas, because it is so perfectly Truthful…
THANK YOU!!!
It’s so horrible that we’ve reached the point where someone felt compelled to spell it out.
No words needed.
Shocking.and regrettably accurate.
This is True in many directions…
needs another labeled FDA/CDC, another with all pHARMa convicted serial felon corporations;
another labeled US Dept. of Education/ teachers’ Union
Higher Education System/ University Funding Network…
So much more ad nauseum
The first time I saw this meme, it said ‘covid-19’ on the L and 2020 on the r .
WEF/CFR on the L and WHO/CCP on the r instead… would have been accurate
I listed a few more earlier.. a fraction of the actual list of gang-rapists having their way now.
We could put people’s names there… how about ‘Fauxi’ and ‘Dazik’… so many others need to be “properly credited”
Republican’ts don’t like getting their dainty fingers dirty unless they’re shoveling taxpayer money down their gullets at the taxpayer funded, pig trough.
Their hands are plenty dirty.
They do their dastardly deeds behind closed doors so they can pose publicly as righteous servants.
But now we are peeping through the keyholes, Maquis, and can, if not see it all, at least understand that when doors are close nothing good is going on behind them.
We assume the worst and most probably are completely right in our judgement.
because the government and judicial system you expect to have is dead and buried long ago……probably coinciding with the installation of the kenyan clown.
Wrong. A great deal of the subversion if our legal system occurred during Bush Jrs term, before the kenyan.
Failure has always been the goal of the Uniparty.
I personally assume that 99.9% of judges are corrupt – how else did they get their names put up for election or appointment?
I assume that 70% of that 99.9% are Marxists or are OK with the Marxists if it furthers their career.
I feel when they put on those black robes any sense of duty to their oaths starts dissipating. Ego takes over. And that sense of superiority which seems to infect most politicians as well.
For most I suspect they love to hear themselves addressed as “Your Honour” when they have none.
I’m with you, but at 77 I have to do something or bust! i’m going to stand on the corner of my very busy street, with a sign,
” No Crime, No Time”
Maybe I’ll get shot in my crime ridden city, but then someone goes down with me( cameras everywhere). Maga Day- No Crime No Time, stop working for couple days( we dont have enough money even working a full week anyway)
Im already a DAR
Might as we make it MEGA-R! At least i saw the world before it turn to shit! There’s my GRITS they came out,( girls raised in the south)
I’d join, Dee!!!!! Come one, come all, girl.
God bless you 🙏🏻
Democrats, law schools and bar associations are cranking out affirmative action lawyers from third world countries like M&Ms!
<I’m now fresh out of words…>
Give me a call 🙂
🤭
I would, dear Wordman…
But I came up with some 😎
Will keep you on speed dial.
When I rrad your comment, I read it as “I’m fresh out of words, that I being ladylike will allow myself to use in public” or something to that effect.
Mentally, I could almost hear “Dirty rack-a-frack, barstud suns a bitc,..”.well, you know.
You know me too well, dutch 😎😂😘
Zero accountability to criminal behaviors within the professions/industry… that’s how.
We the People are not holding anyone accountable in gov’t. or the judiciary – and criminals have invaded & run amok.
“It is not the function of our Government to keep the citizen from falling into error; it is the function of the citizen to keep the Government from falling into error.”
~ Robert H. Jackson, Chief Judge, War-Crimes Tribunal, Nuremberg
Too many have misunderstood the function of government, Amara Grace. And in knowing this, the government has stealthily redefined and reinterpreted its clearly proscribed Constitutional powers ever since the inception and adoption of that sacred document.
And while I agree with Jackson’s statement, I have gotten to the point where I feel this country has grown too large and unfortunately too far away from the DC seat of power for any of us to hold any of these criminals accountable. I think it is safe to say that on aggregate we are not a moral people any longer. Or at least we have placed people in positions of power whose moral centres have disintegrated, if they ever had such a centre to begin with.
Again, I am in agreement with Catherine Austin Fitts that change will have to to start at ground level…locally. Office by Office. It will be no short term endeavour. It took decades for us to awaken, and I suspect it will take equally as long before the rotted beams will be disposed of and new ones cemented in.
In any event, unless we begin this rebuild of our Republic with Christ as its cornerstone as He was at the beginning of it, I fear the project will not succeed.
(Oh….and I believe political taqiyya is a real thing. We must hold aspirants for public office to rigorous examination.)
Yes, we must work each office, locally and on up. But we don’t have decades. The Gulag and the Reset are fast approaching. Perhaps Divine intervention?
Betsy Jones asked, “How has this perversion and mockery of ‘justice’ been allowed to get this far??”
Because those in places of authority and/or responsible for stopping it are either ok with what has happened or are actually facilitating what’s going on.
The reasoning and causes are only confusing when your approach is based on looking at the situation with normal eyes. Forget that. Just look at what is actually happening and has happened. It’s not mysterious or confusing at all, frankly.
Again, what we are seeing is not happening now–it’s evidence of what has already happened.
This is correct, Sharon…a long time in the making.
Like finding a noxious fast growing weed in your garden, seeing it and then trying to trace it back to its origin so one can dig it out.
Only to find that the roots have spread so far that it will take major digging to get them all out.
I agree.
As CS Lewis said, “You can’t go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.”
With the mercies and help of Almighty God.
We’d best get started…
“Noxious weed.” Another great analogy.
It’s an insult to weeds!
Answer to your first question: Because We the People have sat idly by and allowed it! Answer to your second question: Many! Solution: When the government (or government officials) fear the people, there is liberty. When the people (US) fear government there is tyranny. Thank you, Thomas Jefferson, for the solution. We passed the point wherein the government (and government leeches) stopped fearing the people decades ago and as a result of that fact, we may have lost the ability to ever regain our liberties. I’m pretty sure they won’t be reclaimed by voting.
We also allowed the government to control the public school system controlling & defining what is education and what is and is not taught – soon the schools became indoctrination centers as well selective subject educators.
Absolutely. Soap Operas, Sports, Hollywood celebrity culture and Social Media. Zombies and Sheep abound.
They’re not rotten enough, T…
(good one)
😉
To your first sentence,
Betsy, some were asleep, now many are awake. A front row to history is what we all have at this point in time.
Buckwheat…
I can see no other way of extricating ourselves from this sordid state of affairs other than having to go through all that we are going through so we can no longer avert our gaze.
As Sharon above noted, none of this began yesterday.
The depth of the midden in the Augean stable is now in full view. And the stench as well.
We cannot ask God to get rid of it for us whilst we all stand around leaning on our shovels.
Lots of work to do.
It has gotten this far because “we”, the citizenry, were not paying close attention to our government for at least the last 30 years.
We listened to mainstream media, voted for candidates based more on party than studying the inner dynamics of their job performance etc, etc, etc.
Then, I would bet most went on about their lives not giving their government but a bare second thought.
Perhaps it had to get this bad for millions of us to be paying close attention.
We can thank President Trump for calling our attention to a broken, corrupt government and for having the courage and fortitude to get us back on track.
My best guess is that many millions of us will not be letting this happen again.
We are fighters now and fighters forever.
President Trump woke up millions of us and poserdent Biden has awakened millions more.
That time will come…we know not what or when. Though I’m betting before November 5.
They tested us out with the “successful” covid lock downs and mandates and think they know how easy it will be to apply that template for future “events”.
I think they are wildly miscalculating.
I think you are right.
No more.
We’re on to them now.
This far and no further.
Judiciary and medical professions, big ones that I thought were proud to have been held to and maintain highest standards.
When professions dishonour themselves and by their actions destroy scared trust, civilization is the loser…and us with it.
“We do not have Obama judges or Trump judges, Bush judges or Clinton judges,” said Chief Justice John Roberts in 2019.
That was nonsense then. It is positively obscene today. Judges have always been political creatures.
Roberts deserves a lot of blame for encouraging sentimental pretending, which is how clowns like Merchan, Engoron, Beryl Howell, Chutcan, Boasberg, etc. manage to exist without being run off the bench.
Yes, Roberts — one on the side of evil if ever there was one. Definitely a Never Trumper. And, a Bush judge!
Because they use Communist venues and spineless RINOs are complicit.
Due Process has now gone Woke.
Due process is now gone. Period.
When the pendulum swings back, it MUST be DEVASTATING.
These trash cockroaches will scatter when the lights are turned on! May Trump’s response be quick and cutting!
That is an insult to cockroaches!
No matter how you cut it, cockroaches are NFG!
We need some kind of roach motel, they can check in, but they can’t check out!
And final!
WILL be
A totally BS “guilty” verdict might set off some serious public uprisings that the leftist trash don’t anticipate
I’m kind of thinking it’s exactly what they’re doing this for
yet, no reaction just allows the noose to be tightened even more.
I’m worried about that too.
Dear God… please have mercy on us all… especially our PDJT. Please don’t let these evil people win.
I worry that every jurist has been threatened, or will be threatened, to convict Trump or be destroyed themselves.
The level of lawlessness in NY court system has no bounds. Its terrifying. It is truly fascist/totalitarian and extremely dangerous.
Can there be an appeal now? This ruling cannot be lawful.
I’m so weary of the constant trauma, one after another after another.
Ever faithfully weary thou be.
🤣
Patiemce, maybe you are a leftist- a wolf in sheeps clothing.
No one who cares abput Trump or this country OR an honest judiciary… would ever laugh at tthe prospect of PDJT being convicted and possible sent to prison.
You cant help but laugh; right?
Anyone who truly cares for Trump and justice would be distressed… but YOU LAUGH. Who are you?
And Marquis… maybe u r too.
Do you honestly think Maquis and Patience are laughing at the prospect of Trump being convicted and sent to jail???
OMG 😲
😃 😀 😄 😁 🤣
Feel better
You are exactly where they want you! I was getting there. Had to step back for while.
I hear you. Take time to turn it off, take a break, and recharge. I, personally, always find praying my Rosary helps me.
Then they’ll say: See? We told you those people were dangerous.
Yep
Not a good idea that what they want I believe Trump poll # will jump bigly
Oh, I think they anticipate it, to some degree. They know…..
Yes the signals are strong that they are going to convict him of nothing. Their other phony cases are falling apart so there is extreme pressure to get this conviction. Then congress will try some kind of lawfare preventing Trump from running or something to that effect. Difficult to predict insane imaginations. My worry is that while many of us know what’s really going on, the masses who watch mainstream media will only hear what a criminal he is. Take something for nausea and watch a little of the propaganda media. It will still make you sick.
If they wanted Congress to pass legislation barring him from running, they would just have a couple of more RINOS retire, …WHICH THEY HAVEN’T DONE.
And I would add which they have no intention of doing.
A far more “doable” path to keeping PDJT’s name off the ballot, is to deny him the nomination, at the Convention.
“For the sake of the party, and down ticket races, the R party CAN NOT have a convicted felon as our nominee!” is the argument that will be made to the Delegates at the Convention.
THIS, and the same argumeny made to the voters, is the primary use for this “conviction” narrative.
Dutch, do you think it’ll fly? I think maga republicans, REAL maga republicans, will NOT take this lying down, and burn the phone and internet lines to a crisp!!!
Although, perhaps that would not work.
Joe will “address the nation” on the solemn occasion of a President being found guilty by a jury of his peers of multiple felonies related to the 2016 election.
He will admonish the GOP for supporting him and urge them to drop him as their nominee.
He will go on the attack against all Trump supporting notables and gloat massively about being the savior of “Our Democracy”.
Talking heads will nod in agreement and fill their shows for weeks with anti Trump and anti GOP programming. But what else is new?
Yes indeed.
Welcome to the Republic of Banana.
Where bananas and worse are continually shoved into our backsides.
So,where do we go to get a REDRESS of grievances?!
Heaven, and, in due course, our own hands.
Maybe if we re-dress ourselves as trans people will they begin to listen to us. I may try it. I’m shopping for a dress. Something plain. I’m a reserved kind of man……I mean, woman.
HaHa! You might be onto something there.
When all of the government agencies are equally corrupt, I have no idea, other than the ultimate solution.
To the Courtroom of Heaven; I posted the way in a couple of places… scroll down below this comment the video explaining the way appears there.
All we need is one hold out on the jury. Praying for a righteous outcome.
Judge already stated, unanimous vote is not required, didn’t he?
No, a felony conviction in NY must be unanimous.
Not in this idiot’s courtroom, according to said idiot.
“Yes, you read that correctly…. The jurors do not need to believe a crime was committed in order to convict Trump of unlawfully hiding a crime he never committed. Let that insufferable Lawfare logic sink in.”
They just don’t have to agree on a crime, any crime.
The idiotic reasoning is that the jury need not be unanimous regarding the made up underlying crime that this pretend cover up is covering up.
Dumbest logic ever.
They don’t have to be unanimous on what crime was committed.
If one juror holds the line and votes “not guilty” it’s a win for Trump.
Unfortunately, that hold out has to be prepared to be a martyr after he’s disowned by many of his family and friends.
Would you really want the sort of family and friends who would disown you for doing what you believe is right?
I live it every day!
Evil is allowed to rule, for a short time.
Let us continue to pray, fast and sacrifice.
This can not be allowed to continue. Only God and His intervention can get us out of this mess.
if I were one of the obamaloids orchestrating all this behind the scenes, I would be happy to know the people I want to destroy will not fight back, hide in their prayer closets and wait for God instead of using all the skill, talents, and mind that God has given them to fight back.
And you would be guilty of mistaking humbleness and humility in the face if Gid, for meekness and timidity when confronting the evil in man.
And you would not live to regret it, …
You sound like an obamaloid.
AMEN!!!
Praying, praying, praying.
Thinking about it . . . if they (the Lawfare machine team) were truly confident about the rightness of their case, they would not need to come up with this latest perversion . . . could it be possible that they are not 100% confident in the jury and they are relying on the members of the jury being totally ignorant as well as compliant with the Lawfare agenda?
What are they going to do with themselves if the jury does not convict in spite of every Lawfare effort to pervert the system?
As far as the two attorneys on that panel, they will certainly have no career left if they follow Merchan’s illegal instructions.
“I thought so little they rewarded me by making me the ruler of the Queen’s Navy!”
If they do as they are told, they may be rewarded.
If they are honest, they may be identified and destroyed.
Hopefully, one of them is a John Adams instead of a Michael Cohen.
Courage is necessary virtue.
WSB: “As far as the two attorneys on that panel, they will certainly have no career left if they follow Merchan’s illegal instructions.”
Wrong …. The legal community in New York including the bar association is corrupt to its core. The two lawyers on the panel will have no career left if they don’t follow the judge’s instructions and if they don’t vote to convict.
Moreover, and more important, the two lawyers know what all the other jurors on the panel know, which is that any one of them who stands hard for a “not guilty” verdict will be doxxed by their fellow jurors and will become the targets of intimidation and violence once the trial is concluded.
The other excuse these two lawyers will have for going along with the crowd — at least in their own minds — will be that they expect the verdict to be overturned on appeal, and so they themselves will have no personal responsibility for participating in an extreme perversion of justice.
They’ll get jobs with lawfare.
don’t kid yourself. the deepstate can extort, threaten, and frame a juror, just as easily as they can do it to a judge or anyone else. . . . . .and you’d never know about it.
But God would, which is why we MUST turn back to Him and His Laws.
As a jurist….I would question this ruling by the judge… based on basic concepts of fairness, justice and logic… that we all possess. You don’t need to a lawyer or judge to know that.
And the jury witnessed other injustices done TO the defendant who is a POTUS.
He is being denied his basic rights as a citizen. It’s scary to see this happening in America.
I winder how fast an appeal could be done… and hopefully snatched away by SCOTUS.
This is blatant election interference of a national election. It cannot be permitted. It’s shocking that this is occurring.
Can the jury rule for a lesser misdemeanor with a fine?
Don’t place too much hope on the Supremes… they’re not Trump’s friend. Even the two he appointed
But Thomas and Alito should be solid.
with poopy in the WH it is really not surprising since he’s the evil leader
This has occured to me, as well.
And the Bronx ralley could have seriously shaken their confidence, as well.
Seeing what they think of as ‘their voters’ showing such broad support for PDJT, has got to have them worried, that despite the jury being from Manhattan, that one ir more are closet MAGA.
They are NOT looking to put PDJT in Jail, if that was their goal he woukd already BE there, as he has given Merchan grounds with his flaunting of the gag order.
I remain sceptical this is about getting a conviction, SO THAT Congress can pass legislation to keep him off the ballot.
SCOTUS, in the Colo. case said “Only Congress can,…” but they did not lay out the predicate under which Congress can,…and currently they don’t HAVE it.
I continue to think that, in addition to a general effort to try to discourage votes for him, this will be used AT THE CONVENTION, to try to dissuade delegates from voting to give him the nomination.
THATS the logical way to keep his name off the ballot, and I fully expect RDS, maybe with Nikki as his VP choice, to try some theatrics at the Convention, similar to Cruz in 2016.
“For the sake of the Party, and downticket candidates, we CAN NOT nominate a convicted felon!” will be the pitch.
But it won’t work….
dutchman: “I continue to think that, in addition to a general effort to try to discourage votes for him, this will be used AT THE CONVENTION, to try to dissuade delegates from voting to give him the nomination.”
Steve Bannon and his crew at War Room are hearing from numerous people that lots of monkey business is now being played behind the scenes by GOPe/Neocon delegates to the summer convention. Their goal is to either keep Donald Trump off the ticket somehow, some way; and if they can’t manage that, to force him to accept Nikki Haley as VP.
Ain’t happening.
The more they try to “force” him, the more he will resist. He will pick his pick. He’s trying for unity, which they do not want unless everyone is unified in UniParty. Let all of the creeps show their anti-American faces in the middle of President Donald J. Trump’s nomination, and pray they all live to regret it! I am sick to death of this evil. Our lion will win in spite of it all. Please, Lord, let it be so!
I just returned as a Delegate to the NCGOP state convention in Greensboro, NC. The Delegates were 90% MAGA and most of the delegates going to the National Convention are MAGA. The grassroots delegates at the convention were not savy to how party policy is passed (Manipulating Roberts Rules to Order) while fantastic MAGA resolutions were not able to get to the floor because delegates being tired and accepting Motions to Adjourn. Most of these delegates have learned a lesson on GOPe methods of getting their ideas while MAGA ideas die from manipulation of convention session time and knowing that Free Booze was going to be available at Receptions following the meeting session. Progress was made and great learning by new delegates occurred. NC delegates to the National Convention will not be swayed to abandon President Trump!!! Old time GOPe in discussion with me expect Trump to prevail and the when in office will have his agenda curtailed by Uniparty members blocking agenda. These old timers thought this effort would also fail if Trump is Trump.
His poll number will go sky high people can see what’s going on
IMHO, the general public will need this judge’s orders explained in simple language and soon. Legit legal voices need to be on every news show, twitterX, instagram, ticktocking … explaining judge’s unjust ruling.
Like before the verdict and before FJB has his chance to blither about it. Else, it’s off to the races with the lies.
“Legit legal voices need to be on every news show……”
Why would you believe that the media, who are and have been our enemy for quite some time, would allow ‘legit legal voices’ a platform to address the common folk?
Ans: Because that what needs to happen, whenever / wherever they can get the word in. I see plenty of twitter feeds here and videos here where someone on the right leaves some lefty talking head speechless.
His poll numbers probably will go up while the Deep State continues to push for Trump’s head on a pole.
What is it with these Marxist pederast makeup wearing freaks? NY is infested with them!
Look into his background.
Where do Merchan’s (Spanish for Merchant) true loyalties lie?
He isn’t acting on his own.
He was installed.
Always, always, always look back at least two generations.
Bolshevik Show trial.
In more ways than one
Ancient Spanish-Gallician, derived from or morphed Mercado.
But you’re right. 😉
I once knew an American Jewish politician whose parents had immigrated from South America. Nice enough guy, and we always got along.
His name was something along the lines of Jose Sanders (named changed to protect the innocent).
He always got both the Hispanic vote and the Jewish vote – the Hispanics because they made assumptions based on his Hispanic first name, and the Jews because he was Jewish and they knew it.
Similar to Mayorkas and Sotomayor…best of both sides!
Hmmm. Mayorkas is Jewish, family came here from Cuba.
I have not seen anything indicating Sotomayor is Jewish, but this behavior is sort of Milei/Mileikowsky like:
https://m.jpost.com/Jewish-World/Jewish-Features/Sotomayors-Jewish-ties
Who knows, maybe she, like Madeleine Korbel Albright will suddenly “discover” her hidden heritage as an adult.
( Someone shove a picture of a unicorn in my direction, quick . . . )
Jack “Smith,” or “whatever his real name is” (Trump).
Talentless fools that couldn’t even plant the evidence to convict on a crime that they themselves made up from the emperor’s fake clothes.
Would there be Prison time?
4 years
For Trump? At least 20 years. Effectively a death sentence.
For Bragg, or Merchan? Perhaps a sternly worded letter of disapproval.
Fifth Amendment: “No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment …”
Sixth Amendment: “In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall… be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation…”
To charge someone with a secret unnamed predicate crime is itself a crime.
yes, a crime that will go unpunished except for a citizen jury and citizen trial.
Stop trying to win the case with rule of law or evidence. It really confuses tyrants.
Yes–its Anti-Law by anti-Christs.
This is reminiscent of the infamous “deeming” of Obamacare into existence when it had not been passed by Congress.
Ah — once again, Roberts! Part of the cabal.
I’m so SICK of it all!
Welcome to the third world version of the United States of America.
Maybe it’s time for the Red States to break off from the blue States.
a national divorce is needed, but the cleaving should be on precinct level, not state level.
Agree
There are no “Red States” or “Blue States” either, for that matter.
State R party Executive committees PAINT the State “Red” or “Blue” as needed as part of the illusion of choice.
The experience with the totally FAKE “Americas Gov. of the free State of Fla.” SHOULD have opened everyones eyes to this reality.
Hard to believe some people still don’t get it.
Whatever.
Go live in California then !
Isn’t California the state where heavily Red GOP Orange County and a fee other similar jurisdictions “magically” went Blue during the 2018 and 2022 mid terms?
🤔
Wonder who was controlling the ballot counting and tabulation??
🤔
Y’all miss the point!
No wonder we are being taken over by the communist.
Some people just don’t get it !
Dutch, I get what you’re saying, but I’m not quite sure I understand it.
You, “just” referring to precinct-level works?
State (level) executive committee, not precinct.
MNN BREAKING NOW …
* FBI DEMANDS GAG ORDER TO STOP SUSPECTS THEY SHOOT FROM CRYING OUT IN PAIN
this unjust system and it’s proponents warrant destruction. by any means available. otherwise, we all just bend over and accept out own slavery and subjugation.

?
D-Day?
Sentence first, verdict whatever!
It’s like a Choose Your Own Adventure storybook for Communists and the depraved!
Off with her (his) head!! (The Queen of Hearts)…the end they choose.
This is somewhat similar to what the judge did on the case of that Carroll woman. President Trump was not found guilty of raping her, BUT “something” surely did happen. Hence the millions in compensation for her.
That’s under appeal……
E. Jean Baby won’t see a dime!
Won’t matter anyways…..when is her trial for having an illegal (unregistered) firearm?
I’ll vote for Trump whether he’s out of jail or behind bars!
And when Trump is sworn in as #47, I hope he has that corrupt Merchan investigated.
Governor or 2 got elected, while in jail.
This was in the first half of the 20th century. Southern states, I think.
Oh, I hope his first 24 hours are glorious for some, and terrifying for others!
CIVIL WAR 2.0 ?
This judge: what a total waste of a human being! Where are the jurists on the SC on this? We are well beyond a Banana Republic!
SC cannot intervene, only provide “post conviction relief.”
It is a procedure thing.
Judge Merchan is besotted
with wickedness.
Aware of only one instance when jurors need not be unanimous in deciding a defendant committed the act or omission made the basis of the crime indicted, continuous sexual abuse of a child over a 30 day period, and that is permissible because the underlying predicate acts are so hard to prove individually due the child’s testimony. The jury must still unanimously find multiple acts of abuse, but need not agree unanimously upon the exact same predicate acts. Maybe due process in New York is different than the rest of the country. Or maybe the Fourteenth Amendment just doesn’t apply to President Trump. Kafkaesque.

Retired Magistrate here: The “justice” system has gotten this far out of hand because attorneys and judges didn’t want to punish, at one time, the few rogue judges, because well, it could happen to them and if we all stick together we can protect each other. It’s a club and the general population isn’t part of it.
Most judges accept campaign contributions from big law firms, political entities and lobbying groups. Of course those contributors except something in return. This has been happening for a long time with the result it is now totally out of control.
I have said on this site before that the law is what the judge says it is in any particular courtroom on any particular day. It is then up to the party that isn’t satisfied with the ruling to appeal, depending on whether or not they have the funds. Of course then you are dealing with judges higher up the food chain who accept the same types of contributions. Every once in a while you find a judge who actually listens to the facts, applies and law and renders a fair ruling.
Unfortunately, that boat sailed a long time ago in New York City, the state of New York and other metropolitan areas.
I think that boat left the country in its entirety. We are now a siht hole country (but with nuclear weapons!).
And open borders to make sure we get a never ending flow of turd world illegal alien trash.
but Judge Cannon
I am so glad to see you say that, having seen it yourself. I have been close to many judges and attorneys, though I am not one myself, and have seen the corruption and lack of morals in most I have known. Even the so-called “good” ones.
The laws and Constitution mean nothing to them, only self benefit. I know a very few honest, incorruptible attorneys and judges, but the list is short as more retire each day. I do remember a time when many could be trusted, but those days are gone.
The club protects the club, like politicians, many Doctors, and other self-policing professions.
It all ALWAYS comes down to the love of money!
Asshats, every blessed one of ’em.
Make it blasted. They most certainly are not blessed.
Ever thought of taking this injustice into the Courtroom of Heaven personally? There is only Justice there –
*all* are subject to God’s Laws & His Decree
“Dishonest scales are an abomination to the LORD, But a just weight is His delight.”
~ Proverbs 11:1
I’ve posted this a few times lately, but here it is again – this satanic minion ‘judge’ & the minion lawyers need to face the ONLY TRUE Judge & Law Giver
{
}
Even if God has these exacerbated trials & tribulations planned purposefully to strengthen his Faithful… zero harm – and in fact possibly much good – can come from this approach to beseeching his mercy and intercession according to His Perfect Will.
We should go to the Queen Mother of Heaven with our Rosaries!!!
OK… AND go directly to the Ultimate Law Giver and Judge TOO please.
That’s Weissman’s 17 Angry Democrats from Brooklyn attempt to charge President Trump with Obstruction of Justice for Tweeting he was innocent of Russian Collusion when they knew he was innocent because the guy who wrote the Russian Collusion Dossier told them he made it all up in January 2017!
Merchan was born in Bogotá, Colombia. He moved with his parents to the US (NY) when he was six.
Looks like his kind of jurisprudence is what is practiced in his birthplace.
Of course! Another Little Napoleon.
Verdict – GUILTY !
of what ????
nothing !
but you are guilty because we say so !
I sentence you to 50 YEARS in solitary !
Sure is a good idea to undermine the trust in the separation of powers – the foundation of the Republic – and the entire judicial system, for the sake of a political talking point.
Champions of “democracy” at work.
He gave the thugs plenty of time to either bribe or threaten the jurors before they reconvene.
That one.
Yes, there is no crime. The prosecutions witnesses have testified that there was never a crime.
It’s dead on appeal and I can’t believe the fine would be much anyways. They’ll get the headlines but sending poor Joe out to comment is a huge political mistake.
This trial more than any is boosting Trump into the White House.
Agree on Joe, his crew continues to get a “C” for Consistency, but overall an “F” for freakin stooooopid.
What a country!
Merchan’s bias is no surprise. The bastard is a corrupt judge. What will really be the final straw is if one of the higher courts does not overturn a guilty verdict.
Greta Van Susteren pointed out this judge’s ruling is illegal and cited the Supreme Court ruling https://twitchy.com/samj/2024/05/26/unanimity-trump-judge-greta-n2396620
Well what is his lawyers going to do.. can SCOTUS step in this is like a bad movie.
This is a several days old. Been discussed and then some.
In memoriam to this occasion, think I’ll rewatch “12 Angry Men” and hope there’s at least someone on that jury with the character and fortitude to stand up for something…that this farce must end. It’s also a damn fine film and I haven’t watched it in a long time.
I believe this scam of a guilty verdict will be used by Biden to justify the cancellation his so-called debate with President Trump…Biden will say he’s not going to debate a convicted Felon…Blah, Blah…..Biden’s already scheduled his press conference after the verdict is rendered…What does that tell you??? The Fix is in………..Corruption doesn’t even begin to describe what we are witnessing…..If Trump doesn’t win our Republic is officially dead….
That was the dirty dem’s plan from the very beginning….it was broadcast as such months ago by one of the dem’s operatives…
That would be a political blunder that Joe can’t afford.
The entire country can see just how criminally corrupt, the new york judicial system truly is. The complete joke of a judge, merchan, is a pathetic clown. The imbecile has absolutely no integrity, no honor and is an embarrassment.
Am I to anssume all the high scholars, high politicians, high generals, high priests, high law school professors believe THIS IS OUT OF THEIR CONTROL? This is the worse possible decision in America’s history, if they attempt to make this miscarriage of Justice render any kind of penalty. All these esteemed great ones in America better come to their senses overnight to stop this circus act from proceeding else this country will never be the same again. This is NOT legal theory and case law arguments; we ALL understand Right from Wrong, even we uneducated ones! If they do it to Trump, we KNOW what they can and will do to every one of us! Please; you’ve had your show; now just leave it alone while we’re all still whole!
Why is Merchan acting this way? Maybe they caught him with a boy under his robe.
That one.
Let’s just go back to stoning 🤬
Going Old Testament would be counterproductive, I think. These jackals at the DOJ already think that walking into the Capitol and taking pictures is a violent crime.
The filthy pigs are insuring the USA is going toward war!
The truth is no, they do not want war, they want us scared afraid cowering in our homes. That is what they want. They want us following orders, like show up to get your vaccine and then go home and die.
I do not know how many people have said to me war is what they want, we cannot go there. I ask them, did you go get their vaccine shot?
I have been to lots of countries on this earth and can say with certainty, the USA is a breed of its own. We are very different and unique, if you were born here and have a generational ancestry, none like us.
Wouldn’t it be funny if the jury predicated to the judge’s face that he was a criminal?
We can dream.
Hope and change we can believe in.
I miss corn fed justice as displayed in that photo.
I believe President Trump is in control of everything that’s been going on. He, numerous times, told us not to worry, everything will be okay, we’re watching a movie, or something to that effect. I believe we are watching a movie of what “would have happened” had he not caught on, stepped in, and destroyed the DS/NWO to save the USA. All these people we’re seeing now are actors or AI. Thousands have been arrested, tried, and executed, and those not executed will die in GITMO. The 2020 Election will be overturned. I can’t wait to watch the end of the movie.
Step away from the pipe.
Stop reading RealRawNews!
Ya beat me to it!
