Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's "hush money" case against Donald Trump has always been a farce. A misdemeanor that was past the statute of limitations suddenly became 34 felony counts, giving clowns like Adam Schiff the opportunity to showboat and pull off stunts like this:

The original plan was to have Trump behind bars before the election, but the justice system moves slowly, and Trump's sentencing was scheduled for January 10. The president-elect's lawyers moved to block the sentencing, but a court has ruled that the January 10 date stands.

Onto the NY Court of Appeals (which is the NY supreme court, name notwithstanding). And while they're at it, Trump's lawyers should finally be filing in federal court to stop this. It's a colossal mistake for them not to have done so already, but better late than never. https://t.co/rg5TpLg8lq

This will go federal.

Smells like another 9-0 beating at SCOTUS.

I know you guys are really excited about this, but it really reeks of gross political tricks from a bygone age directed at someone whom the voters themselves vindicated. Just let it go.

Just like Hunter Biden, Trump will not be going to prison. We know that's your fantasy, but it's not going to happen.
One step closer to a meaningless sentencing.

Next stop NYSC and then USSC. This is so blatantly a case of political prosecution, it will one day be THE textbook definition taught to law students for centuries. The Biden regime and Garland DOJ have irreparably harmed the US “Justice” as well as the NY injustice system.

The only date to be concerned with now is January 20, when Trump will be inaugurated. Sorry libs, he's going to be your president again.
