Many Americans are infuriated by the obvious lawfare campaign the left has been waging against Donald Trump. Legal experts and professors of constitutional law say these cases are weak and abusive. It's the stuff of banana republics.
But to actually watch it play out in real time in a Manhattan courtroom makes me furious. As I noted yesterday, Hillary Clinton did essentially the exact same thing and was never prosecuted. If we're going to start prosecuting so-called "hush money" cases, let's start with Congress!
It's not enough to drag Trump into court on trumped-up bookkeeping charges. Soros-funded District Attorney Alvin Bragg is also trying to hold Donald Trump in contempt for violating a gag order.
The concept of a gag order has always been controversial in the American legal system because it directly conflicts with our First Amendment right to free speech.
Nonetheless, gag rules are employed in the judicial system but almost always to protect the rights of the defendant. Police, prosecutors, other local officials, and the media will be told by a judge to shut up about a case so the defendant can get a fair trial.
But in this case, they are using the gag rule against Trump to prevent him from defending himself.
So, an attorney who went to jail for perjury but is a key witness in the case can go on TV and launch one verbal assault after another against Trump, and he can't respond.
It's unacceptable. It's unfair. It's un-American.
Silence On The Hill
Where is the Republican Party? Every elected conservative official should be pounding the table about this outrageous lawfare. This is a total abuse of the law!
But there is more outrage from progressives over the fact that we're impeaching Homeland Insecurity Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas!
I believe what we're witnessing is a criminal conspiracy consisting of the Biden administration, elected left-wing officials, and other forces within the GOP establishment to deny the American people the right to vote for the candidate of their choice.
Their silence speaks volumes.
Still Swinging
No matter what position they put Donald Trump in, he keeps swinging, and he won't give up.
After he was forced to sit in Judge Merchan's kangaroo court and listen to the attacks against him for hours on end, he left the courtroom yesterday and immediately visited a bodega in Harlem to "prosecute" the case against the left.
But this wasn't just any bodega.
This was the bodega where a clerk was attacked by two people trying to rob him. In the fight, the clerk ended up killing one of the robbers in self-defense. District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who is going after Trump right now, went after the heroic bodega clerk, charging him with second-degree murder.
Thankfully, the outrage against the neo-Marxists who run New York City was so great that Bragg had to back down. He dismissed the charges two weeks later.
Trump met with the bodega owner and talked about the crime wave that is sweeping America under the defund the police left.
It was an excellent reminder of how Alvin Bragg and his progressive allies have perverted the justice system.
