Just In: Judge Merchan REFUSES to Allow President Trump to Refute Stormy Daniels’ Incredulous Attacks – Maintains Illegal Gag Order
Gateway Pundit ^ | May 7, 2024 | Jim Hoft

Judge Juan Merchan has ordered President Trump to remain silent as the media and Democrats spin lie after lie against his record and character.

This is how free societies die. Just as shocking as the Democrat party’s lawlessness is the Republican party’s total avoidance to confront these vicious political acts. We all know this lawlessness cannot continue yet Republicans remain too weak to raise their voices with the rare exception the courageous few who are shunned by their own party elites.

On Thursday the media continued their toxic reports on Trump and porn star Stormy Daniels, a opportunist who owes President Trump around $500,000 for court costs that she refuses to pay – a crime in itself.

The Trump team requested Judge Juan Merchan lift the unconstitutional gag order on President Trump but Merchan refused.

The Trump team also requested the case be thrown out after Stormy Daniels’ seven hours of testimony.

Dana Perino at FOX News reported:

In America — depending on who you are — you are Guilty until you prove yourself Innocent. And that’s a tricky business, because some judges don’t allow you to defend yourself at all.

What an evil place this land has become.

New York has a judge that said “the second amendment does not exist in my courtroom”...

So... yeah. Kangaroo courts and Banana Republics are embarrassed by how blatant this is.

He can defend himself in court. He is barred from attacking witnesses, jurors or family members of court officials. It’s a simple concept and not unusual for high profile cases like this.

I left in 2008 when they gave us McCain and then registered as an independent. So glad I left the uniparty and if I donate, it's directly to a candidate.

It is unusual on two accounts. One, gag orders are mostly used so the prosecution cannot prejudice the jury pool.
But in this case, prosecution witnesses are slandering the defendant in very disgusting ways.... and he, the defendant has to remain silent?

Total tyrannical BS.

They are all compromised by sex, drugs and money which is why none of them defend Trump.

The misunderstanding is your problem....... Fuzz.

It’s a nickname for an anti Trump scumbag prosecutor.

The headline writer should learn the difference between incredulous and incredible. The attacks are incredible, we’re incredulous.

you are Guilty until you prove yourself Innocent.

And you have to present your defense first, and then they will tell you if you guessed correctly what the charges were.
