New York judge says Trump can’t attend Supreme Court arguments on presidential immunity
The Hill ^ | April 15, 2024 | Ella Lee

The New York judge overseeing former President Trump’s hush money trial said Monday that Trump cannot attend arguments on presidential immunity at the Supreme Court next week.

...

The decision to not allow Trump to be in Washington, D.C., on April 25, when the Supreme Court is set to hear oral arguments on a presidential immunity claim Trump is making in his federal criminal case, came just before the New York trial adjourned Monday.

“Arguing before the Supreme Court is a big deal, and I can certainly appreciate why your client would want to be there, but a trial in New York Supreme Court … is also a big deal,” Judge Juan Merchan said to Trump lawyer Todd Blanche, rejecting his request to let the former president play hooky.

You do have evidence that he’s a cartel stooge or are you just flying by the seat of your pants?

I don’t know, but it seems Trump’s lawyers aren’t the meanest pit bulls he could find.

Cartel stooge doing drugs supplied by his Colombian bosses?

Stooge.

I agree. Merchan IS a stooge.

And his daughter is a DNC operative.

We notice that you ALWAYS come to the defense of your Democrat Party teammates like cartel stooge Merchan.

And we also notice that you've never once criticized his DNC daughter.

You're the FR Democrat Party operative dog that didn't bark, joesDemocratcucks.

Or a safe place for anyone trying to lay a hand on Trump. They start to arrest him, things may just go in some direction nobody can predict.

One, He hasn’t been hanged from an overpass. Two, he furthers the corrupt criminal goals of DA Bragg. Three, he is a democrat involved in dirty money through his daughter. And that is one, two, three strikes you’re out at the corrupt Columbian ball game...

That is all good evidence he is a cartel stooge.

I Don’t have a clue. But this is one of those things in history where some small thing goes sideways. Like an Archduke moment.
That Serb never dreamed it would unleash the carnage of WWI. The simple act of trying to arrest Trump, a decent man, on a frame up charge may go wildly askew from what the communists expect.

In their fantasy he goes to jail, can’t campaign, everybody turns away etc. Maybe...maybe not.

And really, his corruption is manifest in his actions. No underlying felony charge as required, he doesn’t care. 6 year statute of limitations, he arbitrarily extends it for a year because of covid.
On and on.... Merchan is corrupt and driven by third world thiking.

By ordering him to appear in court for his felony trial. He isn’t required to be at the Supreme Court.

Here is your Colombian cartel stooge Merchan in action. Sounds a lot like you and your opinions, BTW:

GROTESQUE BIAS AGAINST TRUMP (JOHN HINDERAKER)
https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/4231430/posts

...NoJustice stooge Juan "Cartel Merch" Merchan had previously ruled that the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office could not play Trump’s interview to a jury because it could be prejudicial.

He doubled down on playing the tape — but said prosecutors could introduce the exact words that Trump said, meaning so long as jurors don’t hear the recording itself, it’s fair game.

=============================

The Access Hollywood tape has NOTHING to do with this trial - except in the minds of your stooge Merchan, his DNC operative daughter, and FR Democrat Party operatives like you...

By ordering him to appear in court for his felony trial.

Only Democrat Party sympathizers refer to the kangaroo show trial as a "felony trial", Fuzz.

The rest of us spit on the clown show that is the New Jerk state "justice" system.

It shows a pattern of behavior relevant to the charges.
