The two big stories this week illustrate the corruption of the legal system and of the Democrat party, which controls key portions of it. As well, they illustrate the media’s continuing effort to deny us the truth we see with our own eyes.
The Indictment of President Trump
New York District Attorney Alvin Bragg, Jr. has indicted former President Trump. Arraignment is scheduled on Tuesday. Sometime before then we are likely to see the charges against him, which reportedly -- as is the normal order of weak cases -- run to over 20 counts. Charging so many counts is a prosecutorial trick based on experience: Some jurors may think the more counts there are the greater the likelihood of a pony hiding in the manure pile; others may just want to get out of the deliberations and agree to one or two to get out of there. Almost universal criticism of this move, by even the editors of the Washington Post, suggests there is ample reason to believe this is a meritless, politically motivated prosecution.
Quick polls suggest that this view has purchase:
"Republicans (93 – 5 percent) and independents (70 – 26 percent) think the Manhattan District Attorney’s case is mainly motivated by politics, while Democrats (66 – 29 percent) think the case is mainly motivated by the law,” Quinnipiac announced in a press release.
Per Quinnipiac, that means that 62% of all Americans “think the Manhattan District Attorney’s case involving former President Donald Trump is mainly motivated by politics, while 32 percent think the case is mainly motivated by the law.
Bragg’s office (a New York state operation) received federal funds to investigate Trump, and if you think Attorney General Merrick Garland was not in some way involved in this matter, you and I are in disagreement.

Clarice ping
The nation is hopelessly divided and there is less and less we share in common.
The left hates this nation, we love it.
The left hates the constitution, we love it.
The left hates capitalism, we love it.
The left hates individual liberty, we love it.
The silver lining in the indictment is that this will fail, just like all the other stupid democrat projects to waste money and inflame their gullible base. And Alvin Bragg will become another piece of objective evidence that Affirmative Action does not work, in the classroom or the ballot.
This is all about Bragg thinking he will run for NYC mayor and the publicity will help him.
And I said, "What about 'Breakfast at Tiffany's?'"
It might. There is something seriously wrong with a lot of NYers. Hateful revengeful..don’t care what the truth is..just get em!
I think I remember that film
The Democrats ain’t funny. They’re rotten.
>>>>The silver lining in the indictment is that this will fail... <<<<
The same NYC judicial system recently found a 2016 meme-maker guilty - Trump will be a slam dunk....unfortunately.

Fat Albert for Mayor? Who’s going to vote for him? Rikers Island?
I’ve never seen it, but I remember “Moon River”.
As I recall, I think we both kinda liked it ...
NYers have overblown egos. They think they are the be all and end all. A problem they share with most Democrats.
That New York Grand Jury...came so close to being Super Heroes.
They could have been the catalyist for saving the integrity of the citizens of America.
Instead they chose the the chicanery of the few.
Don't forget all the third worlders who broke the law to get here, who hate Gringos with a passion. You can see it in their mean ugly faces, especially their women and nasty little screaming anchor babies, when they are all shopping together at WalMart with the cash welfare dollars we so freely have gifted them with. Because they are all oh so special.
The United States is no longer a nation. Maybe it never was.
It doesn’t matter what people who know nothing about the charges think.
I agree that there is an excellent chance that Bragg has nothing, that he has in fact committed a crime (or several) himself, and that Trump will wind up better off.
However.
Subornation of perjury (if charged) and tax evasion (if charged) are crimes which, if proven, will send Trump to prison if they can be proved.
No, THEY have gone bananas
