Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Corrupt Leftwing Soros DA Alvin Bragg Threatens Trump With 30 Days of Jail Time If He Exercises His Right, as a Candidate for President, to Criticize His Hyperpoliticized Unjust ProsecutionConsider that Trump's political candidacy depends on him refuting this absurd prosecution as corrupt and partisan -- and George Soros' catspaw Alvin Bragg threatens to throw Trump in jail if Trump dares to dispute this Democrat war-by-other-means prosecution. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg filed a motion Tuesday to hold former President Trump in contempt of court, claiming he violated the gag order imposed upon him by publishing three social media posts relating to two known witnesses in his criminal trial -- Michael Cohen and Stormy Daniels. Bragg is urging Manhattan Judge Juan Merchan to also warn Trump that "future violations" of the gag order can be punished "not only with additional fines, but also with a term of incarceration of up to thirty days." Merchan last month imposed a gag order on Trump, due to his "prior extrajudicial statements." Merchan said they established "a sufficient risk to the administration of justice." Merchan ordered that Trump cannot make or direct others to make public statements about witnesses concerning their potential participation or about counsel in the case -- other than Bragg -- or about court staff, DA staff or family members of staff.So Trump can't point out that Merchan's Democrat-operative daughter works for a company that fundraised $33 million on the promise to get Trump convicted. So Trump can't say anything when the DA fills the jury with leftwing ringers. ...So Trump is not allowed to bring up Stormy Daniels' past statements, which she now alleges are false, to impeach her credibililty. Remember, he's not just a defendant in a corrupt prosecution -- he's running for president of the United States. He is not like the normal defendant where you could, maybe, say, "You can make those arguments in court, but not for public consumption." He's a presidential candidate -- he has to make arguments in his defense for public consumption. And the corrupt Soros DA is following through with his plan to simply make it illegal for Trump to run for office. Megyn Kelly made a good point: the public interest in Trump's comments is an important factor here, too. We're not just talking about Trump's right to speak -- we are talking about our own right, as citizens charged with electing a president, to receive Trump's statements so we can weigh them in making our votes. Even CNN's legal analyst Ellie Honig is mocking the weakness of the Soros Catspaw's case. Once again, leftwing Marxist civilization-destroyers take over an institution with centuries of credibility, strip away all credibility and turn it into a Marxist political weapon, but then wear the skin-suit of the institution demanding the respect previously afforded to the institution.

Daniel Baldwin @baldwin_daniel_
Things to remember about Trump's Manhattan trial: Alvin Bragg is a far left prosecutor who campaigned on 'getting Trump.' Alvin Bragg is bootstrapping a common misdemeanor into a felony (because the statute of limitations ran out on the misdemeanor). To do that, Bragg is using Article 175 Section 10 of New York Penal Law. That requires Bragg to prove that Trump is guilty of falsifying business records and then show he did so with the intention of committing a second crime. The huge issue for Bragg? No one has any idea what the second crime is! Bragg hasn't articulated it. Insanity. The DOJ, which jumps at any chance to 'get Trump,' and Bragg's predecessor Cy Vance each declined to prosecute Trump for this. Judge Juan Merchan donated to Biden for President in July 2020. His adult daughter is the president and partner for a Democrat consulting firm that makes money working with far-left candidates who attack Trump for a living. When Trump and his attorneys pointed this out, Merhcan gagged him, violating his First Amendment rights. To cap it all off? Bragg's star witness is a serial perjurer.

"Paying hush money is not a crime," Honig admits. "In fact, a hush-money agreement, though seedy, is legally no different from any other contract between private parties. So Trump knowing about the Daniels payoff -- and he clearly did -- is merely a starting point here and insufficient to prove anything criminal."

“If a jury doesn’t believe him, that’s it,” one former prosecutor said. 1 day ago Michael Cohen, the former president's fixer-turned-foe, is expected to tell jurors in the criminal trial starting Monday that Trump directed him to pay $130,000 in hush money to porn star Stormy Daniels.|| BTW, that's Politico.

BREAKING: Former Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz says Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg’s case against former President Donald Trump is the “weakest” case he’s seen in 60 years. Fox News host Sean Hannity prompted the former law professor to analyze the case from a “legal standpoint” due to Bragg’s attempt to increase the charges against Trump. “I’ve been doing this for 60 years, Sean. Teaching criminal cases, defending criminal cases, writing about criminal cases — this is, by far, the weakest criminal case I have ever seen in my 60 years. There is nothing here. There is no misdemeanor, there is no felony, there is no federal crime. The feds refused to prosecute — even Bragg refused to prosecute until some of his young progressive woke prosecutors demanded that he prosecute,” Dershowitz stated.

Meara @MillennialOther 2h
Justices Gorsuch and Alito just annihilated the entire foundation of Biden’s DOJ case against J6 protesters. They dunk on the US solicitor general with examples of unhinged leftist psychos disrupting official proceedings, and ask why those protesters were never charged. Alito makes an excellent point about the protesters who shut down the Golden Gate Bridge yesterday, asking the SG if she would apply the same argument if the disruption resulted in someone not making it to court in time to testify. The SG tries to justify this glaring evidence of a two tiered justice system by claiming that it’s different because those protesters “likely didn’t know they weren’t allowed to disrupt official proceedings.” Meanwhile, a nana who took a selfie outside of the Capitol is serving jail time. It’s worth listening to the whole thing, especially BASED Gorsuch with the Jamaal Bowman reference around the 01:10 mark. https://tinyurl.com/4p4a9nsx 10 minutes Posted by: andycanuck (vtyCZ) at April 16, 2024 03:36 PM (vtyCZ) 108

"If I wasn't bound by this unconstitutional gag order, I could tell you the details about how this judge's daughter is fundraising off of this trial. I could talk about how the corrupt Soros funded DA is using a serial perjurer as his key witness. I could tell you about how Stormy Daniels has recanted prior statements. But sadly, this corrupt court doesn't believe in the US Constitution and has told me that I could be jailed if I speak out against this travesty. So America, you'll just have to do your own research." Donald J. Trump, probably
Posted by: Stacy0311 at April 16, 2024 03:44 PM (f87vz) I'd like to see Trump do a press conference while wearing a gag on his mouth, and sit with ventriloquist puppets in the likeness of Bragg, and Merchans (pa and slut daughter), and let the puppets (voiced by off-screen actors) tell the whole sordid story.

@mirandadevine Judge Merchan has so generously granted the defense request to strike the juror in seat 2 for cause. From WSJ pool report: Before granting the request, he read the language of the social media post in question into he record. It is, in part: "Good news!! Trump lost his court battle on his unlawful travel ban!!!” Merchan said, if the post had ended there he wouldn't have a problem. Seriously? Good news?

They have nothing on him, nothing to get him on and that has obviously driven them insane.

I don't think they ever intended to win, ultimately. The charges Bragg brought in this case are a joke. He took a misdemeanor case that even the very political SDNY refused to prosecute and somehow shoehorned it into a felony and is bringing charges that have never been brought before. He could only get a win with judge as corrupt as this one. The goal was to hurt the campaign just like all the other charges. Make Trump fight with both hands tied behind his back.

Gag orders have traditionally been applied to protect the right of a DEFENDANT to a fair trial, not to protect the prosecution from criticism. I wonder if there is any precedent at all of enforcing a gag order preventing the Defendant from criticizing the nature of charges brought as unfair, biased etc (as opposed to attorneys, who are governed by special rules of "respect" for the Court).
As a "prior restraint" on speech, a gag order is (should be) subject to the strictest scrutiny of necessity, vs the free speech rights infringed. And in this case, you have the highest possible speech interest (major political speech, always afforded the highest deference under the Constitution). And the "threat" here amounts to nothing more than a (likely fake) heckler's veto of supposed "online threats" --always a crap justification under the law. Interestingly, the nature of the gag order also belies the whole theory of the prosecution. Trump was well within his rights to use campaign funds to protect his reputation (furthering his candidacy). Much as preventing him from speaking is, by definition, a harm to his candidacy (therefore by definition a political speech infringement). Posted by: Zek at April 16, 2024 04:28 PM (5FPX4) 328

326 Biden supporter John Cougar Mellencamp throws a tantrum and storms off stage after he learns his audience doesn’t want to be politically lectured and would rather get what they paid for.

At this point in time there are two kinds of people in the United States....those that think Trump is getting what he deserves and people who know that Trump is getting railroaded with multiple bull$hit criminal cases. There is no middle ground, we as a country are that divided and it is not going to end well.

It occurred to me on the commute home that these people, pols, DAs, judges, attorneys, etc... fear being held accountable and scrutinized under the same laws and penalties that the hoi polloi are scrutinized and penalized under. If we had a real opposition party we'd be tossing democrats in jail and charging them under the same statutes and charges PDTS is being prosecuted under.

And the "threat" here amounts to nothing more than a (likely fake) heckler's veto of supposed "online threats" --always a crap justification under the law.
Interestingly, the nature of the gag order also belies the whole theory of the prosecution. Trump was well within his rights to use campaign funds to protect his reputation (furthering his candidacy). Much as preventing him from speaking is, by definition, a harm to his candidacy (therefore by definition a political speech infringement).

Yes, it's state court, Manhattan only. The Manhattan DA's office was feaured in the orignal Law & Order. By not having any bridge & tunnel people the jury pool is predisposed to hanging Trump.
