Only one spiteful group wants to see Trump sentenced before inauguration

Blacks are twice as likely to be on welfare than whites. Their higher poverty rates coincide with their high out-of-wedlock rate.

Stop blaming “racism” for problems that the black underclass is creating in their own communities - and start holding your people responsible for something. Not everything is whitey’s fault.
Give us the ACTUAL numbers of who is on welfare, can't do it, can you?
 
Again. Per capita. You can’t compare absolutes when one group is the majority population and the other is a slim minority.
Lol, per capita. Per Capita are more black folks murdered by the police? Per Capita do black folks face more racism? Per Capita do black folks face more discrimination? Per Capita are black folks denied more business loans?

Doesn't matter. You always tell us per capita is meaningless when it comes to black crime.
 
Spiteful at the minimum.

Lawfare is what it really has been, all these cases against Trump have been lawfare and nothing more.


In what appears to be a bid to ensure that President-elect Trump enters office as a formally convicted felon, Judge Juan Merchan has denied Trump’s post-trial motions and proposes to sentence him next Friday, January 10.
The bait for Trump to agree to this is that Judge Merchan is signaling that the sentence will be a conditional discharge – meaning the president-elect would face no prison time and no post-sentence monitoring (such as probation). Moreover, because the imposition of sentence and entry of the judgment would end the proceedings in the trial court, Trump would be free to commence his appeal of what would be 34 felony convictions on the charge of business-records falsification.
I do not believe Trump will agree to this; instead, I suspect he will seek an immediate appeal on the immunity claims that Merchan conclusively rejected in today’s 18-page opinion and order. It is not surprising that Merchan denied Trump’s immunity claims; he had already ruled against Trump on this point in an opinion issued on December 16.
In prior proceedings, Manhattan’s elected progressive Democratic district attorney, Alvin Bragg, appeared to acknowledge that Trump would likely have a right to appeal an immunity ruling against him prior to being sentenced. That is no doubt why, rather than push for a sentencing date, Bragg’s prosecutors proposed that the case be frozen – held in abeyance while Trump served his four-year presidential term. In that scenario, the case would theoretically to resume in 2029 (when Trump would be 82-years-old) with final presentencing rulings, the imposition of sentence and entry of the judgment of conviction, and the appeal.
In Friday afternoon’s ruling, Merchan rejected that proposal, claiming that he had a responsibility to sentence Trump prior to inauguration, lest what the judge frames as an important public interest in getting the sentencing done were undermined.
It is not clear to me that there is any such public interest. There seems, instead, to be the interest of Merchan – an activist Democrat who contributed to Joe Biden’s 2020 campaign against Trump in violation of state judicial ethics rules – to ensure that Trump is branded a convicted felon while there is still opportunity, pre-inauguration, to make that happen.
Nevertheless, Merchan appears to acknowledge that Trump still has cards to play. The opinion states, for example:
"This Court must sentence Defendant within a reasonable time following verdict; and Defendant must be permitted to avail himself of every available appeal, a path he has made clear he intends to pursue but which only becomes fully available upon sentencing. [Emphasis added.]"
Put aside how precious it is for this demonstrably hostile judge to express his deeply held concerns about the vindication of Trump’s appellate rights. Merchan must interject the word "fully" because, while Trump can only bring his complete appeal based on all claims of error arising out of the proceedings only after sentencing, he should be able to bring a partial appeal now targeted solely at Merchan’s immunity ruling.
...


Criminals should be sentenced. Let him presidate from prison.
 
Actually, you clowns only use per capita when you want to claim that black folks are the face of crime.
No, we are responding to your claim that most criminals are white.

Guess what? Most criminals in China are Chinese.
 
The CR Trump wanted was trashed.

Gaetz was trashed.

There will be no chance of a MAGA omnibus bill that Trump wants.
I don't understand what the hell you're talking about...The election was certified, the CR under Biden, the last one under him was done. Now, their aim is to get a budget done. The only question is whether to do one big budget, or split it into two, involving border security...

While the majority is slim, I think the Trump agenda will be successful, despite the childish speed bumps the Democrats are putting in place on the way out...
