Nice turn of phrase. LOL.Quote:
This week, the prosecutors, a former Biden Department of Justice 7th floor suit, who came to attempt to true-up DA Alvin Bragg's campaign threat to Get Trump, announced that the NEW lynchpin of the case isaha!not only the federal election law but a state election law as amorphous as your brother's promise to be a good boy on prom night.
This newly invoked state law alleging Trump conspired to "promote or prevent the election of a person to a public office" will supposedly bridge the local law and federal law to magic up a felony to hit Trump with before the election.
So was there really a crime committed within NY state?Quote:
Testimony from the prosecution's first witness this week was former publisher of the National Enquirer David Pecker. Pecker, notwithstanding that awkward name, had a less titillating story to tell about the famous man in the crucible than one might be expected to learn in a trialin which the entire premise was that Trump paid to kill stories that hurt his reputation so he could steal the 2016 election. You might be thinking at this point, didn't Hillary Clinton win New York in the 2016 election?
Correctamundo, mon cherie.

Why would Pecker have any idea that doing what he'd been doing on behalf of Donald Trump, former Obama apparatchik Rahm Emanuel, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Mark Wahlberg, and other stars for decades all of a sudden would break federal elections law? Because Matthew Colangelo and Alvin Bragg wanted him to repeat that incantation to a gullible jury to magic up a federal felony. This case was so egregious that specialists in federal election crimes said there was no case.
Quote:
We understand, however, that the DA and Matthew Colangelo are claiming a conspiracy happened. But using rhetorical zip-ties to allege a conspiracy doesn't mean a conspiracy actually happened. This is especially true since Pecker changed his story only after the full weight of three levels of the judiciary pressed him.

This case is a legal game of Jenga. The Biden-connected prosecutors are desperately hoping that defense attorneys don't pull out one of those blocks lest the entire foundation of this case collapse, which it should.
