Trump Travels to New York For Arraignment by the Soros Prosecutor; Plans to Deliver a Speech Tomorrow

He's scheduled to appear in the Soros Prosecutor's Star Chamber at 2:15.


Former President Donald Trump announced Sunday that he will "deliver remarks" at his Mar-a-Lago Florida resort following his first appearance in Manhattan court on charges tied to the Stormy Daniels "hush money" payment.

Trump, 76, will speak from his Palm Beach home and resort at 8:15 p.m. Tuesday, his campaign said in an emailed statement.

The speech -- Trump's first since a grand jury voted to indict him last week -- would follow his scheduled 2:15 p.m. arraignment in Manhattan Supreme Court.

But the address to his supporters could reveal very little about the case should the judge decide to impose a gag order on Trump during the hearing.

This is absurd -- they're going to put a gag order on a presidential candidate as they attempt to criminalize a non-criminal act.


Legal experts have said such an order, which would silence the 2024 presidential hopeful, would not be unusual, noting they are fairly common in high-profile cases. A source close to Trump's legal team, however, told The Post on Sunday his attorneys are not anticipating a gag order will be issued.

...

He's set to turn himself in to the Manhattan District Attorney's Office on Tuesday, arriving at the courthouse two to three hours ahead of the hearing to be fingerprinted and have his mugshot taken, a source with knowledge of the situation told The Post.
...


The specifics of the indictment, which remain under seal, will be disclosed at the arraignment. Reports say Trump will be hit with more than 30 counts, including at least one felony.

I imagine almost all of those will be duplicative -- charging multiple crimes, as many as can be dreamed up, for the same few actions.

At least the judge is unbiased:


Justice Juan Merchan, who oversaw the trial involving the Trump Organization that resulted in the company paying a $1.6 million penalty, is expected to preside over the arraignment, which will take place in the same courtroom where the company was tried and convicted of tax fraud in December.

Trump lashed out at the judge, saying he "railroaded" former Trump Organization CFO Allen Weisselberg, who is serving time on Rikers Island after pleading guilty to tax fraud charges.

"The Judge 'assigned' to my Witch Hunt Case, a 'Case' that has NEVER BEEN CHARGED BEFORE, HATES ME. His name is Juan Manuel Marchan, was hand picked by Bragg & the Prosecutors," Trump wrote Friday, misspelling Merchan's name.

He went to prison for perjury and other charges and he blames Trump for the crime of Cohen being born stupid.

So he ran to the left and they are pretending to like him because he is willing to lie about Trump now.

192 Have gag orders ever gone to the Supreme Court. It seems like telling people about your arrest and trial is a critical freedom of speech right given what the founders went through.

So in general its not really a public first amendment / political speech issue. Its a run of the mill he said she said, and we don't want to taint the jury, etc etc. And there are limitations to gag orders, they have to be reasonable. This is pretty politically charged, well discussed in public ALREADY and there's really no secret to be kept, except may specifically quoting Grand Jury testimony - except some witnesses have already given extensive interviews. As well as some grand jurors. A very weird scenario. Very weird.

197 So what happens if they remove Trump from running for President in 2024?

There's not a single Democrat who isn't going to have a major freak out over DeSantis, no matter how many people here are sure he's a swamp member. Not a single Democrat will be calm about Ted Cruz if he decides to run again. We know how this goes. Don't we?

They actually hate Trump LESS than they hate just about any other possible Republican candidate. They can pretend that Trump is incompetent. Granted, they also pretend that Dr. Ben Carson is stupid.

So...here's a thought. This isn't about Trump. It's about anyone who has a business, anyone who has "made it" in the private sphere. It's saying, stay in your lane. Be a donor. Buy your politicians, don't BE one. Because we'll destroy you on technicalities and it won't matter that you kept good records or paid your taxes owed or passed every audit and paid your minor fines or back taxes when the IRS disagreed with your armies of lawyers and accountants.

202 How can y'all think Trump is a victim of trumped-up witch-hunt charges?

WaPo reports DOJ has gotten "fresh evidence" of obstruction in the stolen doc case. What they show is DOJ is collecting evidence of Espionage Act violation(s).

America has had 3 people who were found guilty of espionage @ this level and we executed 2 of them (the Rosenbergs).

The 3rd, Robert Hanssen, is in solitary confinement He sold docs to Russia. Doesn't take much to figure out how Russia gets all the comp on politicians they own, Graham.

NYC FBI agent McGongal, who was just arrested and he was being paid by Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska who it now turns was just footing the bills for Russian chaos agent Tony DeVolder aka George Santos.

I don't want to sound like a conspiracy theorist, BUT anyone that thinks Donald Trump did NOT make $$ off those extremely sensitive documents is delusional. That's all the man cares about, or has ever cared about.

303 To all those who keep saying that the leftist Deep State/media/institutional complex can do whatever evil sh-- they want and no normal Americans will ever do anything about it . . .

Similar things were said in the late 19th/early 20th in Europe and the U.S. The Teddy Roosevelt types constantly complained then that modern technologies and conveniences were making westerners soft and that Europe and the U.S. would be taken over by more warlike cultures. Then WWI happened.

After WWI - the "war to end all wars" - there was a strong era of passivism. But that didn't last . . . partly because some people became desperate.

I'm in no way, shape, or form wishing that the terrible ghosts of the 20th c. rear their ugly heads again. That's why I favor a national divorce, the least bloody of the possible ways out of this current tragic trajectory. But these evil leftist f----s need to understand that they will pay the piper sooner of later.

Riiiiiight. Which is why he donated his salary. Look I don't mind accurate critiques. Like he's too old, or he screwed up on covid, or he should have helped out the Jan 6 people, or he didn't do enough to get the wall built, and he didn't fire enough assholes and hired too many (its debateable that this was avoidable or not but I'll allow it). But this is just stupid. Its not just counterfactual, its equivolent to say He's the boogie man!!! Get help. Medicate. Learn how to think. Learn how to argue.

In Edwards case, he actually used campaign money for the payoff.

In the trumped up charges against Trump, they are inferring that the non-reporting of the financial payout from personal funds, violated federal election laws.

389 Tuesday will help clarify the legal and political assets brought to bear against PDJT. Effectively, this will be the opening artillery barrage of what should be a bitter conflict that most likely will further deepen the seething mood of the nation. God help us if the other simmering investigations result in further indictments against PDJT, something that already seems to be a forgone matter. From what I know about major conflicts, and this is exactly that, be they kinetic or political, everything spirals off into the unknown and what seem like a deterministic result rarely ends up there. Is this an existential event? Could be and if it is it could very well spell the end of the country or set its course for the next few decades. All I can say now is the current insurgency that has destabilized the country and is running the persecution of PDJT must be checked. I am not a great historian but my understanding of this nation's history says these next 19 months should be as dicey as I have ever read about our lived. through.

Edwards case was a mistrial and then DOJ dropped it.

Theories of the case are similar- that spending on reputational damage control by or on behalf of a candidate is thus a campaign expenditure. But the facts are different.

As the Edwards case was Federal and was a mistrial it doesn't really offer any basis for decisions.

One, they are mostly atheists and use all Christian religions without any thought to God, and Two, I won't give them, esp my fil, the opportunity of rubbing my nose in this. Many are not nice people. I pass. I will spend the day making my traditional Easter foods.

Posted by: artisanal ette at April 03, 2023 12:57 PM (uQPen)

I think this is probably accurate. Doesn't mean he's perfectly clean but would any other POTUS stand up to the same scrutiny?

And also, of course, he wasn't in office his entire working life so he's got actual failures with real world consequences (for him) in his record.

Politicians have failures but they never have consequences, only We The People pay for the failures of life-long politicians.

And Trump gets a series of breaking all standards. The raid him without cause, the spy on him and his attorneys, destroy attorney client privilege, use the FBI resources to set up the Clinton funded Trump/Russia lie, put 4 (?) special persecutors on him from day one ... then unleash the virus (the response was the killer), steal the election and lock up those that protest the steal.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams, joined by NYPD Commissioner Keechant Sewell, hosted a briefing Monday regarding security preparations ahead of former President Donald Trump's arraignment, stressing that as of midday Monday "there has been no specific, credible threats to our city at this time" and everyday life should continue as normal.

"Control yourselves," Adams warned at City Hall, recognizing anticipated protests and the unique nature of the situation. "New York City is our home, not a playground for your misplaced anger. We are the safest large city in America because we respect the rule of law in New York City. And although we have no specific threats, people like Marjorie Taylor Greene, who is known to spread misinformation and hate speech, says she's coming to town. While you in town be on your best behavior. As always, we will not allow violence or vandalism of any kind. And if one is caught participating in any act of violence, they will be arrested and held accountable no matter who you are."

474 On Friday, Twitter released the recommendation algorithm portion of its code by publishing it on GitHub, where developers post open source software data. Developer Steven Tey dug into the code and found that there is a mechanism through which the US government can "intervene" with the code.

"When needed, the government can intervene with the Twitter algorithm," Tey wrote. "In fact, @TwitterEng (Twitter Engineering) even has a class for it – 'GovernmentRequested.'"

Again I say, my interest is in the plan itself rather than the guy who put it together. All I care about is whether it can work or not. It sounds to me like it can, and ad hominem attacks alone aren't going to change my mind on that.

Organizing on the local level, via something like a militia system that's responsibly run and under the jurisdiction of counties or other local officials, is a course of action I don't see any downside in. At any rate, it ought to be more effective than fuming at our keyboards, which is all we've been doing so far.

We don't, as a rule, talk politics unless the people we are talking to agree so as to stay civil and nice. The idea being we all love each other too much to let topics we don't agree on and aren't going to convince anyone different about to get between us. Life's too short to let things we can't change but only argue about drive us apart.

492 The idea of the timing being purposeful is so twisted.

It would illustrate the problem with "narratives" about enemies rather than "truth" about them. All the "those people worship Trump" ideas, for example. If a person (or political movement) is running on narratives they'll expect certain results and not get them, or get something very different.

Such as Obama explaining away the benighted voters in flyover (was it New York state? Pennsylvania?) as "bitterly clinging to guns and religion." They were doing so because of loosing jobs, he explained. But was he right? Or was he going via a Marxist influenced narrative where religion was only to make people feel better about their oppression, and jobs, the blue collar working class, was *supposed* to like the Marxist narrative. The guns and religion had to be a cope.

But all I see left-ward is a very strange insistence on narrative as reality, beginning with anyone opposing the left as "racist" and ending with... more or less the same thing. Trump is a criminal, not for what he's done, clearly, but because it's his ESSENCE and it's his desires and motivation. Nothing needs be objective, everything is feelings.

I disagree.
If he is prevented from running, he becomes king-maker. He throws his support behind someone and becomes absolutely relentless in campaigning for that person. He would rally support by the millions.

Posted by: gourmand du jour at April 03, 2023 12:09 PM (jTmQV)

I personally believe Trump's conviction is a given. He's going down. People who think any other outcome is possible still hold to the naive belief we still have a Republic, with rule of law and checks and balances and an unbiased judicial system. Of course the charges are spurious, of course the judge is partisan, of course the jury will be rigged. Yet you think he's somehow going to walk.

Fun family story: My son Jake married a lovely Belarusian girl. Last year, our whole family went out to dinner and my uber-liberal daughter Maggie and I were arguing politics, as we do. Our debate wasn't heated; I've encouraged my kids to make the case when it comes to political views. We love each other in spite of our differences. Katya became visibly distressed and begged us to stop. Nobody talks politics in her home country. Talk too loudly and the secret police show up at your door at midnight and drag you away, never to be seen for years, if at all.

You think that can't happen here. I'm telling you it's coming, and soon.
