Donald Trump’s Manhattan trial, created without an underlying crime, continues today. A Federal campaign finance misdemeanor is being tried as if it were a state felony case. There is no predicate for this case.
The criminal trial is based on charges of falsifying business records in the first degree, which is typically considered a misdemeanor. The Manhattan District Attorney created a separate legal theory—that the alleged falsification of records was done “in furtherance of another crime.” Prosecutors say the crime was a conspiracy to undermine the integrity of the 2016 election.
Judge Merchan will not allow Donald Trump to bring in any campaign finance experts to defend his case. However, he will allow the prosecutor to bring up the fraudulent Letitia James and E. Jean Carroll cases.
The fix is in. They wouldn’t even tell the defense who the first witness would be.
Prosecutors intend to call Trump’s former personal attorney, Michael Cohen, to the stand to testify on the alleged payments. He has been considered a star witness. However, Cohen, in 2018, pleaded guilty to campaign finance violations, making false statements to Congress and tax evasion. He was sentenced to three years in prison as a convicted liar.
CONTEMPT
The former has been illegally silenced with a gag order preventing him from defending himself.
Judge Juan Merchan found Trump in contempt for violating his gag order. Merchan has fined Trump $9,000.
On Thursday, the judge will hold a second hearing about Trump’s alleged additional violations of a gag order. The former president has continued to defend himself in his trials. Judge Merchan has already threatened Mr. Trump with imprisonment.
The judge’s adult daughter is a Democratic fundraiser for Adam Schiff, the Biden-Harris duo, and other Democrats. She is making money from this trial. Trump cannot mention her, Michael Cohen, other witnesses, court staff, jurors, prosecutors, and others connected to the case.
The goal is to slap as many charges on him as possible to influence the November election.

This judge is the most corrupt judge in the country.
Merchan’s name is appropriate. Corrupt judge raking in millions in fund raising through his his lesbian marxist daughter.
More election interference by the Communist Democrats, RINO’s and the lying media. But the 2020 election wasn’t rigged? These people are the worse!
Kangaroo Courts! If this doesn’t wake people up to the two tiered justice system I don’t know what will. Our courts and justice system have been infiltrated by, dare I say communists? Not just left leaning and/or progressives, they want to bring our country down, because without us, they can have their one world order, bring us to our knees and have to follow whatever they want us to do. Total control over our lives, every aspect of them; just like China! No cash to spend how you want, stop using your damned cards all the time. I was just at Mystic Sea Port and they wouldn’t take my cash to buy some popcorn, I needed a card! I didn’t buy any! Pay attention they are chipping away at all our freedoms, Not Just President Trumps! Look what they are doing to him, we could not stand up to what he is dealing with, we would have taken a plea deal and be in jail for something that wasn’t a crime!
“Dare I say communists?” . . . Yes, you may. You would be a liar if you didn’t.
These people are horrible!
Tyrannical communists
