C’mon, Braggy, a good Stalinist like doesn’t need bait & switch tactics. You got a man, think up a crime and hang ‘im high.
it doesn’t matter... at this point DJT WILL shoot someone on fifth avenue, and i would still vote for him... yes it depends on the man...
That means Bragg is guilty of slander.
What if we call Bragg out for some crimes? Fair game?
So -- if anyone pays the government more in taxes than necessary ... that's a crime. Here's your prison cell, Mr. Trump.
Similar to the case where Trump borrowed money, paid the money back, with interest, leaving banks eager to do business with him in the future ... that's a crime. Here's your prison cell, Mr. Trump.
TLDR: Alvin Bragg is full of shit.
Biden told Iran that they can go ahead and attack Israel as long as its “Within Certain Limits” if you want to talk about crime THAT is the crime
If you lie to them it is a crime. If they lie to you it is not a crime. Comprende comrades?
Braggy is pretending to be an intelligent human being to hide the fact he’s a blithering idiot.
Being that the Election was OVER when Trump made those “legal fees” entries into his books—how could the entries possibly have defrauded the voters?
Bragg is representative of alot of people in power who abuse it. a sad state of affairs.
I guess we have to give the poor jerk a chance; he needs time to think up a crime first./Sarc
“Alvin Bragg Says Trump Tried To Conceal ‘Another Crime.’”
??????????????????????????????????
Comrade Bragg, one has commit a *first* crime before one can conceal a “second crime”.
Don’t worry, he’ll find a crime even if it’s impure thoughts on a steamboat landing.
So I assume everyone who covered up Hunter’s crimes will be prosecuted by Bragg?
All I can say is “snipers wanted”
“corrupt[ed] a presidential election” by hiding negative information from voters.
So...all the DC creeps who buried Hunter’s laptop.
bkmk
exactly one of about a dozen reasons this will the thrown out on appeal
But Trump was never prosecuted for soliciting or accepting that purported contribution. Nor was he prosecuted for later reimbursing Cohen in a series of payments.
Bragg leading an inquisition will cost him and the other neocons.
If Cohen mischaracterized a reimbursement as income on state or city tax forms, that would be a peculiar sort of fraud, since the effect would be to increase his tax liability. This theory of "another crime" requires jurors to accept the proposition that tax fraud can entail paying the government more than was actually owed.
Not if it was the lesser of two evils. Consider this hypothesis:
Did Trump's retainer payment to Cohen go into an IOLTA that most lawyers are required to maintain? An IOLTA (Interest on Lawyers' Trust Accounts) is essentially an escrow account where lawyers park client retainers until they bill the client for actual legal services rendered. They must itemize a bill that details every transfer of client money from the IOLTA to their personal accounts as earned income.
If Cohen paid Stephanie Clifford from his personal bank account and then illegally transferred money out of the IOLTA in cover the money, that is essentially embezzlement of client funds. If Cohen then billed the Trump organization for legal services to cover the withdrawal of the payment from his IOLTA, is that why Weisselberg doubled the payment to Cohen? Was Weisselberg aware of what Cohen did and basically give Cohen a documented income for his tax returns to cover his withdrawal from the IOLTA and also replenish the retainer?
Did Cohen agree to do this because the alternative was admitting to embezzlement of client funds, similar to what Michael Avenatti was convicted of?
