NY fraud case against Trump is a glaring abuse of judicial authority. Time to strike back with 42 U.S.C. § 1983

So, it is a primary duty of our President to “take care that the laws be faithfully executed,” which includes those laws affecting federal elections.

I am impressed you have learned something today.

Publius · 2024-03-15T12:29:42.359Z

Federal elections are administered by the States.

Federal elections are administered by the States.

With the proviso that “Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations, except as to the Places of chusing Senators.”

Besides, my point was that the NYAG (happy?) was not politically biased against DJT, although she clearly thought that he was worthy of pursuing. DJT has had a horrible reputation in NY and NJ all through the 80’s and 90’s for being a cheat and a grifter.

These two sentences are contradictory.

How exactly? The AG is prosecuting DJT because of his reputation for dishonesty and financial shenanigans, which were proven. Test has naught to do with prosecuting him because of political disagreement.

FreeAndClear · 2024-03-15T19:21:32.150Z

Because he wasn’t prosecuted in the 80s 90 or even 2000s while everybody knew he was a cheat. She went of her way to go after him. It’s targeted.

Once again you show your ignorance concerning the Presidents’ role which specifically require that he ". . . shall take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed . . . "

And some of those laws, with respect to federal elections, are found under 18 U.S. Code Chapter 29 - ELECTIONS AND POLITICAL ACTIVITIES

Perhaps you would do well spending more time learning Civics 101, and less time here exhibiting your ignorance.

And absolutely no section of Chapter 29 pertains to the means of choosing electors for President. Rather than simply reciting a Chapter heading, perhaps you might cite to the section that you think pertains to anything that DJT involved himself in. I think you’ll find there are no such sections because the means of choosing Presidential electors is solely the province of the States.

Well of course it’s targeted; the issue is whether it’s motivated by political differences and devoid of a legal basis.

Let’s assume that it is in part politically motivated. How is that relevant? If a police officer arrests you because he hates you, but he witnessed you committing a crime, does it matter that he hates you? I’ll tell you clearly - it does not.

That’s the rationalization with which i don’t disagree. But both things can be true. He indeed is a cheat and she indeed went after him because she doesn’t like him and because of politics

It’s relevant in the real world not in the legal world. In the legal world. It’s not. In the real world it is.

Practicing law i often have to remind myself that the real world is different.

The perfect examples are non compete. So they are almost impossible to enforce in New York. But having to litigate it is so expensive that they essentially carry their full weight. Real world versus legal world.

amd trump is a innocent as a newborn lamb to MAGA.

cant even admit he fudged figures to a bank to get a better interest rate.

Allan

NO he’s innocent because he didn’t break any freaking laws, there is no victim of fraud, the banks testified in his favor, the only fraud going in this mess was the charge & trial itself and the idiotic radical grinning fool of a judge. It will be overturned eventually!

They can’t shoot arround the corner either.
If they move to remove this Speaker too Ill throw up.
