Somebody needs to voice the fact that the judge’s daughter is going to be investigated for election in interference. Maybe that’ll take some of the steam out of this judge’s hatred. And if she drags him into it, he should be prosecuted for election interference also. This little girly boy can get it both ways.
'election interference'. repubs specialty. from the ' big lie' constantly repeated to an organized plot using fake electors to Destroy a US Election... stopped that Jan 6 Ya remember when VP Pence Refused to Certify the fakes. He stood true to his oath to the Constitution , one of few repubs to do so. FACTS.
The Democrats have never figured out that these cases HELPED Trump politically. Because everyone knows it's just politics, and nothing more. And patriotic Americans are disgusted that the legal system would be desecrated like that.
Anybody with a smattering of experience of New York courts can understand. That sort of 'experience' can't be cleaned up - it leaves a permanent stain.
The law that his appointment was based on required Senate confirmation, which he did not get. Only one judge, Judge Cannon, in these cases applied that law. The other judges just ignored it.
@@chuckschillingvideos So much for the supreme court putting an end to Merchan's misconduct in this case.. 5-4, they agreed to let the sentencing move forward, which tell us they are ok with the unconstitutional behavior of New York justice system.
How can this judge and this Kangaroo Court be able to go on without no one being able to stop it 23:12. Forgive the pun but these trumped-up charges manipulated and pieced together and then the instructions to the jury are so ridiculous and outside any legal judicial Prudence it's ridiculous
So what Judge Harpo Marx Engoron and Judge Dippity-do Communist Merchan are really saying is, that it all goes back to *"Trump stealing the election"* -- or sumpin, and "we're gonna git 'im." That is ALL what this is about. And that has never been, nor can ever be, substantiated.
It seems to me someone should move to have Smith disbarred if he is issuing a report that he has no lawful right to issue-unless Smith has the finding of no authority under appeal.
Actually the appeals court took over , this trump lackey has no standing. and never should have been on the case to start - imagine the Defendant selects / appoints the 'judge' in his case. legal farce.
That’s exactly what I thought, why in the world voters keep electing these idiots? California voters voted for water retention projects years ago and not one project hasn’t been completed.
SCOTUS already gave him this out in the immunity ruling. If he simply applies that ruling then he should at least have declared a mistrial. He chose instead to pick a fight with SCOTUS. So no, he is doubling down when he should have already folded.
@@chuckschillingvideos The judge wants a conviction with no teeth. He has already informed Trump no jail or fine. The Dems want to have Trump the first "convicted" POTUS. It is all a sham.
@chuckschillingvideos Obvious reasons? Elevating misdemeanors to class E felonies on the basis of "an intent to defraud (defraud whom, btw?) in order to commit another crime" (what other crime?) Paying hush money in exchange for a NDA is not a crime. Yet they presented these misdemeanors as felonies to an ignorant jury of liberal peers. Not to mention the State interference into Federal issues (impeding the transition of a president-elect). Between the immunity ruling and the precedents in case law of a State interference into Federal matters (let alone the wrongful elevation of misdemeanors), this case is dead. Therefore, the punition phase should be delayed pending the higher courts appeals decision. NY Judge and prosecutors are making a mockery of the judicial system.
@@jean-yvesferry4669 Are you really this dumb? Merchan is going to be rewarded richly for his loyalty to the cause. A federal judgeship, followed by a trip to the COA and eventually perhaps even the Supreme Court. He isn't worried about getting overturned. He's in it for his future.
Are 'the people' electing them? I'm dead serious, it really is mystifying to me ... Chicago had Lori Lightfoot, everyone agreed that they didn't like her very much then they proceeded to elect someone who was all the same things except (amazingly) even worse. California with their fortnight festival of vote counting that always seems to have a couple of Democrats win stunning come from behind House seats Franken style is preposterous. Don't even get me started on New Orleans local officials ...
Trump should insist that he be convicted. Then, the overturning that comes later will be worth millions, and it will result in reducing his prosecutors to rubble.
I disagree with McCarthy not prosecuting the people that went after President Trump. Pam Bondi MUST indict and prosecute them or they will do it again. If they indeed broke the law, they must pay a price for it. Otherwise, its selective prosecution.
As much as I hate to say this legislation from the bench has gone beyond the pale, we as a nation need to take a position that judges are not the high moral persons they want us to think they are. That being said monetary and criminal charges need to be brought against these judges who participate in political and legislative action that do not follow the law period.
Like with Bruen the Scotus might take it and intervene favorably since it's another case of NYS officials bucking the court now in immunity. It's a disrespect that they need to send a message with.
Lived in LA for many years. One year my wife and I sat in our backyard (many miles from the fires) and saw the Sta Monica mtn fires, ashes dropping all around us. A second time, I was sailing from Sta Barbara to Catalina and could see fires spread across the ridge of the Sta Monica Mtns in Malibu.
If the charge is doing A in commission of B, and B is quite literally left up to the jury to say that B was either C or D or E, I would grade that conviction with an F. You’re right to question the integrity of a conviction based on a charge that lacks specificity about the underlying act or intent (e.g., B being "C, D, or E"). In such cases, the charge's ambiguity undermines the defendant's ability to mount a proper defense and may violate due process principles. ### Legal Issues with Ambiguity in Charges: 1. **Failure to Specify the Act**: If the charge states that the defendant committed "A in furtherance of B," but "B" is undefined or left open to multiple interpretations (C, D, or E), the prosecution has failed to clarify the alleged crime. Ambiguity at this level compromises the fairness of the trial. 2. **Unclear Elements of the Crime**: Criminal convictions depend on proving each element of the crime beyond a reasonable doubt. If "B" is undefined, it’s unclear what the defendant must have done or intended to do, leading to confusion for both the jury and the defense. 3. **Jury's Role**: The jury is tasked with determining whether the prosecution has proven the specific charges beyond a reasonable doubt-not choosing between multiple possible bases for the charge. Leaving "B" as an open question introduces subjectivity and inconsistency. 4. **Risk of Compromise Verdicts**: When jurors are presented with several possible interpretations (C, D, or E), they may reach a "compromise" verdict that lacks unanimity about the specific act or intent. This raises questions about the validity of the conviction. ### Precedents and Legal Safeguards: - **Unanimity**: Most legal systems require jury unanimity on the specific act constituting the crime. If some jurors believe "B" is "C" and others believe it is "D," the conviction fails the unanimity test. - **Fair Notice**: The accused must be given clear and precise notice of the charges against them (see *United States v. Cruikshank* and *Apprendi v. New Jersey* in U.S. jurisprudence). Charges that allow for multiple interpretations violate this principle. ### Your "Grade" of F: Your analogy fits well. Such a conviction would fail in terms of procedural fairness, evidentiary standards, and adherence to due process. Courts should dismiss such charges or overturn convictions based on them, as they fail the fundamental test of legal accountability.
There should be a law passed that no one who is not born in the United States can become a judge, either a local magistrate or a federal judge. No one who is not an American by birth can become a judge.

The same should be for POTUS since Obama was born in Kenya
BTW, the "official/unofficial" conundrum is not justiable by the Courts (including the Supreme Court). This is irrelevant dicta to the central question of who has jurisdiction over the conduct of the President. The Framers removed this from the Article III Courts and specifically assigned it to the Legislative Branch in their Judicial function. Article I Section 2 Clause 5 clearly vests the Impeachment Power in the United States House of Representatives (SOLE POWER means only they can charge high Federal officials with Crimes allegedly committed while in office). To be blunt, POTUS has absolute immunity to criminal charges in the Article III Courts unless he has been impeached and convicted by Congress first. This is a Due Process of Law violation of the 6th and 14th Amendments.
you could argue corruption I’m just saying the motivation is important to understand the actions of the opposition. These people are motivated by zealous partisanship not self gain as with most corruption, this explains why they do things that make no sense, a zealot will do self destructive acts , for the cause.
Not a Dodger fan because LA sucks but am especially NOT a Yankee fan because they have bought themselves world series with their Steinbrenner millions of dollars and won with their players being on steroids in 1998,1999, and 200, and maybe 1996 too!
I'm old and cynical, but I was surprised that Trump was apparently so clean in all his business dealings, that they had to scrape the absolute bottom of the barrel to find a possible though very weak crime.
@ L. he's only protected by judicial fiat... the ' Supreme Court' and other 'judges' that ignore long standing Judicial guidelines ( morals ) to not take cases they are involved in - Defendant one actually gave them their JOBS. So the 's.c. concocted kingly rules to protect trump , Not needed for 200 years. we know where the Founders wrote ' all are equal (legally ) but. WHERE did the Founders write ' except laws do not apply to Presidents " ? Mueller in his report said there were about 7 indictable crimes. legal farce, pure banana republic stuff.
That is the thing. I am a Trump supporter, but even I thought there should be something there there. 15:35 That is why I believe Trump will always win with these lefties.

And since these fires are in a Blue state they are obviously so much more serious than any disaster that could ever happens in a Red one.
What is up with blue cities .. Crime, corruption, incompetence, insanity, deathes, expenses .. it is insane.
