PREVIOUSLY – According to media in New York City, the jurors in the Trump trial have informed Judge Juan Merchan they have reached a verdict. According to most media reports the jurors requested an extra 30 minutes after their planned 4:30 p.m. court end time to fill out the jury verdict form. WE AWAIT THE NEWS
Throughout the trial the prosecution refused to outline the underlying crime that President Trump was guilty of violating.
Without telling the defendant what crime they committed, the defense did not know what point of specific law to refute. Then, in the closing arguments by the prosecution, the Manhattan District Attorney finally stated the crime that frames their case against President Trump. A federal campaign violation.
This context of surprise attack LAWFARE is egregious in the extreme because throughout the trial the court refused to permit testimony from expert defense witnesses, including testimony from the Federal Election Commission, that federal campaign violations never took place.
The court previously said the defendant is not being charged with federal campaign violations because this is a state case; ergo no FEC testimony is valid. Then in the closing arguments, the state says the underlying case which frames the state prosecution are FEC violations of law.
Jonathan Turley writes an op-ed in The Hill sharing the extreme nature of the judicial breach that has taken place. This is unmitigated Lawfare in the extreme and the American people can see it clearly.
(Via The Hill) – […] going into the deliberations, the court allowed the jury to be told repeatedly that there were federal campaign violations committed by Trump. That is not true. Putting aside that the federal government found no basis to impose a civil fine, let alone bring a criminal charge, the court barred a legal expert who could have shown that no such violation occurred. The jury does not know that. Instead, the judge allowed them to be repeatedly told a false fact that could make it difficult for anyone to acquit.
However, the instructions then went in for the kill and turned the jury deliberations into a canned hunt.
To see just how insane this trial was at the direction of the New York District Attorney Alvin Bragg and corrupt Judge Juan Merchan you can take a look at the jury instructions [55-Page pdf HERE]. The jury instructions are a Lawfare construct assembled by Judge Merchan to frame deliberations against President Trump. Read them to see how crazy they are.
After the Judge ended a half day of jury deliberations, President Trump gave a short interview to Dan Bongino. Interestingly at the 12:33 point, Bongino notes the importance of the Attorney General position in the next administration. President Trump immediately says he made two bad choices in that position in the prior administration. WATCH:

The world is waiting to see the outcome of these jury deliberations. It’s crazy how silly the USA looks to the rest of the world.
Tim Pool admits in this interview that he voted for President Obama, became cynical and jaded thereafter, didn’t vote in the 2016 election and finally awakened to the pragmatic value of President Trump in 2020, now calling him “the greatest president of my lifetime.”
Perhaps Mr Pool’s personal political story follows the arc of many self-described young libertarians, I don’t know. Factually, I try to relate to those who didn’t see the fraud that Barack Obama represented, but often I find myself walking away physically and mentally from this expressed political worldview because it seems odd to me. I want to embrace those who are new to a reality of massive political manipulation in the U.S, yet I find myself struggling to understand how so many people just didn’t (or don’t) see it.
In this interview Tim Pool asks President Trump about deportation of illegal aliens, the structure of a new cabinet, how to eliminate the bureaucracy that seems to control the DC machinery, and more. The video is prompted to the segment with President Trump [1:31:00]. WATCH:

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.
This is interesting. Only a very small segment of the U.S. electorate seemingly understands the ramification of a dollar-based central bank digital currency (CBDC) for the USA. There is also evidence the Russian sanctions were created as the starter fuse for the CBDC process.
WASHINGTON DC – […] Crypto-friendly legislation moving through Congress in the last two weeks drew a surprising level of bipartisan support, surfacing household names such as Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi as unexpected allies, while suggesting that crypto skeptics like Sen. Elizabeth Warren may soon be isolated on the issue.
After an excellent rally in the Bronx, New York City last night, President Trump gave an interview to local media. Speaking to Tara Rosenblum from Crotona Park, during the short question and answer session, President Trump was asked about Nikki Haley stating she would vote for him. The question was about having room for Nikki Haley in the future Trump administration.
During his response, President Trump noted there would be room for Nikki Haley. WATCH:

It’s been 100 years since a Republican candidate has won the Bronx, but this evening Donald J. Trump will host his South Bronx rally in one of the bluest areas in the entire state of New York.
The rally is set to take place at 6pm before a massive crowd in Crotona Park – just weeks after another massive gathering of 100,000 supporters in New Jersey. Crotona Park , a 127 acre public park, is just blocks away from the boundary line of Rep Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s district.
Democrats (and assorted Marxist crazies) plan to hold a counter-rally at the other end of the same park.
“One of the other things I’m going to do — and I may be foolish in doing it — is I’m going to make a heavy play for New York, heavy play for New Jersey, heavy play for Virginia, heavy play for New Mexico, and a heavy play for a state that hasn’t been won in years, Minnesota.”

Professor Alan Dershowitz went to New York City to sit in on the ridiculous trial of President Donald Trump. Apparently, Dershowitz just had to see for himself what he was hearing from others about the insane rantings and rulings of Judge Merchan.
Mr. Dershowitz said he sat in the front row and had a ringside seat to some of the worst judicial conduct he has ever witnessed in a judge.
There are two videos. One short video with Larry Kudlow, and one longer video from Dershowitz podcast. Mr Dershowitz explains what he witnessed first-hand, and it was apparently just as bizarre as the stories he was hearing. WATCH:

Donald Trump Jr. generally maintains the weakest judgement skills amid the Trump family organization. In part, DJT Jr.’s poor judgement seems to be an outcome of his own sense of self-importance and rather openly inflated ego.
Today Donald Trump Jr. brought the professional MAGA grift team to New York City; some of the pros have a history that does not exactly align with the truthful and earnest side of justice. One of the worst offenders, within MAGA Grift Inc., is Pam Bondi.
Apparently, many people are unaware that former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi was one of the key architects of the false and corrupt prosecution of George Zimmerman. As Florida AG, Pam Bondi selected her former campaign manager, Angela Corey, as special prosecutor to frame George Zimmerman using extreme Lawfare.
Angela Corey was a real piece of work and corrupt to the core. It was Bondi’s selection of Angela Corey that led to the completely manufactured witness #8 that became known as Rachel Jeantel. In New York City, Judge Merchan might be corrupt, political and ideologically twisted, but the manufacturing of a fake witness in Florida was far worse than anything Merchan has done in his courtroom.
Literally, Bondi, Corey and a guy named Bernie DeLaRionda manufactured a witness in Jeantel that never had any information about the Zimmerman case. This was originating LAWFARE in the extreme.
Pam Bondi, with a plank in her eye, doesn’t exactly have the room to talk about the splinter in Judge Merchan’s. I know it doesn’t make MAGA Inc. happy when I point this out, but I cannot be intellectually dishonest. WATCH (prompted):

I have spent too much time researching the issues and the granular details of every person. As a consequence, I don’t think there’s a single person at this press conference not financially dependent on the Trump storyline. It’s all sketch.
To highlight my point. In the segment below, the worst of the worst element of Florida politics surfaces. Representative Maria Elvira Salazar (R-FL) condemned the proceedings against President Trump, while apparently counting on us not to remember her full support for congressional Lawfare and the Nancy Pelosi constructed January 6th commission.
Do better!
