ALL CASES AGAINST PRESIDENT TRUMP MUST EITHER BE DROPPED BY PROSECUTORS OR DISMISSED BY THE RELEVANT COURTS
For half a century, it has been the position of Democrat and Republican administrations, that the DOJ cannot indict a sitting president. This position has been justified for a myriad of reasons, all of which come down to the fact, that the president is the head of the executive branch, and unelected prosecutors, juries, and judges cannot exercise a power that makes it impossible for a president to carry out his constitutional duties while defending his liberty and reputation in a courtroom. To allow such a procedure would be to do permanent damage to the constitutional construct of our government and set a precedent that could not be reversed -- that is, prosecutors indicting a sitting president for infinite reasons that destroy the purpose of functioning of the office.
The issue has come up as to whether the same principles of non-prosecution would apply where the charges would be brought by a state or locality. After all, it has been argued, the DOJ's jurisdiction is federal not state. Of course, that is simply wrong -- that is, there are thousands of DA's and state AG's who, if not prevented from bringing charges against a sitting president would empower politically motivated, often elected prosecutors to do untold damage to the republic, e.g., Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg. Moreover, localities and states do not have a sort of reverse federalism authority to bring local or state charges against the president who is federally elected. In other words, there's even more of reason to disallow such criminal actions outside of the federal construct.
Therefore, not only should the courts in New York and Georgia, upon motions by the president's lawyers, dismiss the cases with prejudice, but if the state courts refuse to do so, the president's lawyers should seek dismissal in federal court of the cases. The federal jurisdiction is beyond debate. Additionally, the president would retain the plenary power to dismiss those state actions himself if the federal court does not act for the same reasons set forth in the DOJ legal memoranda of long-standing. In short, no locality or state has the power to cripple the federal constitutional office of the presidency, diminish the standing and authority of the president, not to mention undo the national election that resulted in his swearing in.
That lard azz Leticia James was so pissed she coulda bit through a 10 penny nail during her little diatribe earlier today.....she can say what she wants but she knows it’s O.V.E.R.
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
To be resumed in January 2029
I predict the hack Merchan will try to impose a delayed sentence until after Trump leaves office.
All of the prosecutors and the courts that went along with the hoaxes need to be arrested and tried for sedition. I don’t care what they do in the interim except to be in the J6 gulag. With no bail and who knows when the trials will happen. See, Conservatives can fight back.
I hope Donald pardons himself before then.
Missed that.
Link to video?
Unless Donald pardons himself, which I hope he does.
Dismissed with prejudice. JFK as Special Counsel re Weaponization of Government and DS RICO.
The larger, most important jury has spoken yesterday!!
Hopefully a violation of civil rights charge can be had against her by the US AG.
I’m pleased Mark Levin has addressed these issues of law fare against the President. He is right on! Presidents need to be able to do their jobs and execute leadership unhindered by malicious law fare. The citizens have made their decision. Do NOT impede the will of the people or the President with frivolous and redundant interference.
Trump didn’t just gain the power of squeaking into the presidency, he roared in with a earth shattering, trauma inducing, message sending version of a landslide, a signal that there is a realignment taking place that could leave the democrat left out in the cold.
There will be great pressure from democrats to back off this voter angering and voter alienating harassment of the president, especially in view of the next midterms, it clearly isn’t helping them.
I assume Leticia James will pursue her charges and sentencing against Trump. That benefits her and her career. High-profile prosecutions are standard procedure for NY AG’s seeking the Governorship, and she will be no different.
She would enjoy the left-wing accolades and publicity from a Constitutional crisis.
If she is stopped, it will be from fearful or sensible Democrats who tell her to “stand down,” or ELSE.
Not enough.
The deprivation-of-rights-under-color-of-law prosecution teams need to be civilly charged as such and disbarred.
The president does not have the power to pardon charges brought by the state. Levin’s argument is that state officials cannot constitutionally impede the office of the President, which means that they cannot bring suit against him, either civil or criminal.
If instead of seceding, South Carolina had made some specious criminal charge against Lincoln, to tie him up in a court room in South Carolina, and prevent the functioning of the Executive Branch for the length of his term. This is exactly what Alvin Bragg and Letitia James are attempting to do.
I heard a new arrest warrant for beating the sh*t out of two liberal women has been issued.
On day 1, DJ T should pardon all January 6 th political prisoners.
yeah. no dice, DOJ. Justice coming your way. hopefully soon.
