Another Soros-funded Democrat prosecutor takes aim at President Donald Trump.
Fearing they cannot legitimately beat him at the ballot box, they resort to open, politically motivated lawfare to keep him out of office.
We’ve endured four years of Mueller's failed "Russia Gate" hoax, two failed, politically driven impeachment trials from radical House Democrats in Congress driven by Nancy Pelosi, not to mention the highly-partisan “January 6” Committee that failed to call a single witness adverse to their pre-cooked “it-was-an-insurrection” narrative, and a host of other Trump-related political prosecutions.
But now, this weekend's announcement from President Trump that he expects to be indicted on Tuesday in Manhattan forecasts the most radical tactic yet that the Democrats will use to block Trump's return to power: lawfare with unfounded charges in the criminal courts.
Let’s be clear. The feds have already declined to prosecute anything surrounding Trump's civil settlement with Stormy Daniels. Perhaps that is because confidentiality clauses are part of millions of civil settlements in lawsuits around the country every day. I’ve seen hundreds in my own career as a civil litigator.
In other words, nothing to see here.

Said Dershowitz, “When I was coming of age in the 1950s Southern prosecutors would target civil rights workers and search for any possible violation of the law, no matter how technical. If they discovered or invented a violation, they would indict, prosecute, convict and sentence the target… That, precisely, is what we are now seeing with the Manhattan district attorney, Alvin Bragg, targeting the former president and current candidate, Donald Trump.”
Georgetown constitutional law professor Jonathan Turley, also a Democrat and also a political opponent of the president, says that Bragg is “outside of his lane,” for trying to concoct a federal crime against Pres. Trump that the feds already declined to prosecute.
Professors Dershowitz and Turley are both dead on.
~Snip~
Constitutionally, not even a Bragg-manufactured “felony conviction” can stop Trump from serving again. But that won’t stop the Left from fighting to keep Trump off the ballots in these states. Why should the Constitution stand in their way?
Thus, if Bragg’s felony conviction scheme succeeds, a likelihood considering no Republican, and especially not Trump, can get a fair trial in New Woke City, the Trump campaign should sue in federal court in each of these states, for declaratory judgment. Trump should argue that no state law, and no federal law, if one existed, can block him from seeking the presidency, or appearing on the ballot, regardless of Democrat Bragg’s lawfare strategy currently underway in the criminal courts in Manhattan.
State legislatures must rein in out-of-control political prostitute prosecutors like Alvin Bragg, who abuse their offices to advance a political end-game. In the meantime, rest assured that the Constitution will not allow him to succeed in the scheme.

Commentary:
According to Johnathan Turley, in NYC what Trump did is a misdemeanor and has a two year statue of limitation with it. Bragg is trying to use a federal law which has a seven year limitation on it but he cannot prosecute a federal law in NYC. He is trying to make his NYC crime somehow part of a federal crime. The feds looked at this crime and threw it out because they knew it wasn't a good suit. There is no precedent for this and it most likely will be thrown out by an honest judge.
The goal of Maoist Democrats is to never allow this man to be in a position of power again, not even a crossing guard. Their lies and attempts to convict Trump of something, anything has failed miserably.
So, no arrest warrant issued yet, Frustrating Maoist DSA Democrats:

​

American thinker. End of story. Bragg is not Soros funded. Just another straw man for Republicans to hate. The trouble is that Americans do not hate George Soros. We know that Trump's campaign turned over internal polling data and other campaign information to a Russian spy. They were willing to meet with a Russian who said she had dirt on Clinton. That Trump attempted to pressure a foreign government to investigate a political rival and incited violence on Jan 6.

You want state legislators to interfere in criminal investigations when it is someone you support. You are the same garbage that wanted Hillary Clinton locked up because she was your political enemy.

Jonathan Turley is a Republican. His opinion depends on whether the person is a Democrat or Republican. He told Republicans that they didn't need a underlying crime to impeach Obama. Yet when Trump was being impeached, there had to be a underlying crime. Turley is Republican dogshit. A dishonest judge will be required to throw it out and Republicans have put plenty of those in office.

The goal of you Nazis is to take over this country and ensure you cannot be voted out. You Nazis are attacking this country.

Far leftist Democrat loons like Bragg couldn't care less what the Constitution they despise says about anything. ....

The Feds have already passed on prosecution of FEC violations by Trump.
NY State law has a two-year statute of limitation. Bra is far out over is skies on this.

The Feds were ordered by the corrupt AG Barr to drop the investigation.

Lol! Bragg has not had an end run around anything.

NYS Open Legislation | NYSenate.gov

30.10.4

4. In calculating the time limitation applicable to commencement of a
criminal action, the following periods shall not be included:

(a) Any period following the commission of the offense during which
(i) the defendant was continuously outside this state or (ii) the
whereabouts of the defendant were continuously unknown and continuously
unascertainable by the exercise of reasonable diligence. However, in no
event shall the period of limitation be extended by more than five years
beyond the period otherwise applicable under subdivision two.

(emphasis added)

In the case of felonies, for any periods where the where the individual is outside the state the continuous dates for that absence are not counted toward the SOL.

So for example say:

• An individual commits a crime and remains in NY for 1 year,
• Then moves to Florida for 5 years.

Only 1 year will have "ticketed" on the SOL clock because the time in FL would not count. However the maximum time can be extended only an additional 5 years. So you have the base SOL of 5 years and a maximum extension of 5 years meaning 10 years total. Now, if the individual had spent all 5 years in NY state, then the 5 year rule would apply.

YAY! Political Persecution!!!!!!
The lack of self-awareness from BOTH the persecutors, and the sheep that are clueless to what's right before ALL our eyes, is astonishing.
It's not ever hyperbole. or comedy, or GASP...conspiracy.

It's all in our FACES, right before our eyes.
Seven YEARS of this CRAP is EXAUSTING to ANY clear thinker on this PLANET!

What are you demented subverted demoralized zombies gonna do with all of us DEPLORABLES?

 

[saveliberty]

I found a real crime:

It is likely that a serious felony has been committed right under District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s nose and he is not investigating it. Under New York law, it is a felony to leak confidential grand jury information, such as whether the jurors voted to indict. The protection of secrecy is as applicable to President Trump as it is to anyone else.

We know that the information was disclosed while the indictment itself remains sealed and before any official announcement was made or charges brought. It is unlikely that the leak came from the Trump team, which seemed genuinely surprised.

The most likely, though uncertain, scenario is that a person in Mr. Bragg’s office or a grand juror unlawfully leaked the sealed information. That would be a class E felony, subject to imprisonment.

Bragg let go a murderer and a sex offender who then raped six more people.

He's a Soros DA. Just like Gascon, Boudin, Krasner, Gardner, and all the other Soros fucktards that are getting BOOTED FROM OFFICE.

This clown Bragg should be booted from office and disbarred. He is ABUSING the law.

​

America is currently a "Banana Republic." The woke, Marxist Democrats have no conscience, soul, or sense of shame. They're like rabid hyenas or a school of piranha circling their next meal. The one and only thing on their mind is to satisfy their insatiable hunger for power and control. Beyond that ... they have no sensible plans or thoughtful solutions to America's problems, and they don't care to. They've lost their humanity and have become jungle animals.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Well this is an interesting take. People are routinely tried in Federal and State Court for the same criminal activity. A President can’t pardon a State Prisoner. He has no authority over State Prisoners. A part of our separation of powers.

But now the premise is that if One has looked at it, then no one else may.

To make sure I understand your point. Let’s say that a mob forms outside Mar A Lago. They break in and murder Trump. Federal Prosecutors decline to charge the mob. Does that mean that Florida can’t prosecute the mob?

I love the extreme right. They come up with novel legal theories. Unique interpretation of laws that actual participants in the field say is wrong. We saw this time and again in the McMichaels trial, the Chauvin Trial. And I love it when the RW swears there is evidence. They never manage to produce the evidence.

Now. That being said. I don’t see anything but a hung jury as an outcome for any of the crimes that Trump is alleged to have committed.

My reason is people. I honestly don’t think you can put together twelve people without one of them being a die hard Trump Sycophant. That individual would not convict if they had video and audio evidence of Trump doing everything he was accused of. By the same token, one of the Jurors will be a Trump hater. And they won’t acquit if God Himself wrote Not Guilty on the wall.

My reasons don’t have anything to do with if Trump did it or not. I don’t know. Nobody outside of a few people do. Nobody posting on this message board knows.

I’ve said this before. I voted for Trump in 16. I sat out the election in 20. I refused to pretend that one of the steaming piles of shit was in anyway superior to the other steaming pile of shit. And don’t go pretending your guy is better than the other. Your guy, whichever one it is, is a steaming pile of shit. Both of them are roughly as popular as Jock Itch. A majority of Americans want any other two candidates in the next election.

Using your murder scenario. Federal and state authority has concurrent jurisdiction. Under the federal supremacy clause, the federal authorities can move their case first.
