WHEN THE JUDGE GAGS A KEY WITNESS FOR TRUMP’S DEFENSE. The false bookkeeping trial of former President Donald Trump is now in its fourth week. This newsletter has pointed out lots of times, most recently last Friday, that while we know that Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has charged Trump with falsifying bookkeeping records of a nondisclosure payment in order to commit or conceal another crime, Bragg still hasn’t revealed what that other crime is. It’s really the key to the whole case. Without the other crime, there would be no charges against Trump in this matter. The fact that we — and that includes the defendant — still don’t know what the other crime is is one of the great injustices of a felony prosecution that never should have happened.
But now we’re getting an idea of where prosecutors are going. Perhaps the leading theory — they’re all just theories — of the other crime is that in addition to violating New York’s misdemeanor law against falsifying bookkeeping records, Trump also violated another New York misdemeanor law, 17-152, which prohibits conspiring “to promote or prevent the election of any person to a public office by unlawful means.” Put those two misdemeanors together, and bingo! Trump stands accused of 34 felony counts, which could put him in prison for a maximum of 136 years.

Why the FEC witness testimony is irrelevant of course!
The Nazification of Justice.
Judge Juan is badly in need of an interview with Samuel Adams, who would have him tarred, feathered and run out on a rail.
Oh, this case will never survive the appeal process.
Like I’ve said before, you can take the judge out of the third world but you can’t take the third world out of the judge.
This guy was brought to the US from Columbia when he was 8. He has no gratitude toward this country and is actively destroying the rule of law.
This case is total nonsense.
The entry of a payment to an attorney was absolutely accurate.
The law was meant for entirely different circumstances, like a bookkeeper who steals from a company and makes false entries to hide the theft.
But in any event, the entries here were accurate.

How is that going to play on appeal?
The very fact that it is entered in the books is a reality that Cohen was due monies and he got paid. But it appears what he was really after...was to be part of Trump administration.
At this point, the appeals court should not only throw out the case with prejudice but should also call for the arrest of Judge merchan.
This has to be grounds for throwing out the case, doesn’t it?
What turd world banana republic allows a judge to keep a jury from hearing from experts who deal with these exact issues every day?
If justice was truly this prosecutor’s aim, then why not charge Hillary?
She used campaign moneys to start the false Russia claims and not even her own money.
Plus for Hillary it was directly and solely to influence the 2016 election, the same one Trump is being charged with influencing.
Trump has the reason he didn’t want Melania to find out about his allergies affairs.
Justice is supposed to be blind, not just a bit@h for the Democrats to whore out!
Could any of the jurors sue Merchan to be allowed to hear this testimony?
I’m sure they’ll announce the real charge during the sentencing.
Then again ...
I hope so.
How is that going to play on appeal?They don't care.
All they want is the ability to refer to POTUS45 as a "convicted felon".
I am disgusted with these criminal judges. How un-American. They
“Could any of the jurors sue Merchan to be allowed to hear this testimony?”
In a word, no.
FEC expert destroys the entire fiasco is why. The faked up “reason” for the entire farce. The FEC already looked at this from the correct FEDERAL point of view— and election law. There is no “there” there from the election point of view. And from the NY State law about the book ledger entry— NO state law was violated either.So WHAT is the crime being charged in the indictment in this case? This is not spelled out in the charging documents—? because it HAS to be to even be a trail. A judge gagging everyone he doesn’t like in the case... is not going to prove the case. Like the judge is also the prosecutor—something one sees all the time in the turd world, the one this judge comes from and his crummy a@@ daughter fundraising. Scum and scum daughter.
Bragg should withdraw the case- but noooo he’s a crook democrat to begin with, and under the direction of the Prosecutor he had nothing to do with .... assigning to the case! Again, who is in charge here? And, what IS the charge? Unsupportable by needless continuance.
That’s what I thought.
But what can jurors do to protect from being deceived by the judge? If I was a juror and decided based on what the judge allowed and then found out that the judge had hidden the important information from me, I’d be livid.
I’d feel used like a dirty condom. And I would want the judge to pay.
hillary paid a fine...chump change
It would be a shame if the Bear Jew “interviewed” the Colombian cartel stooge to a fare-thee-well...
