Trump 2024
Updated $52 m in 24 hours.

I think people need to think twice before doing some things. Judge Merchan has created 75m plus enemies who loathe him. How can you just do stupid things then live in fear the rest of your life?
Taking away the right to elect someone of your choice is no small matter.

Now that you are paying taxes in America, should you not vote?😄😄 Why cant you vote. Those who live off govt largese also pay indirect taxes when they spend every dollar gifted to them.

I guess this is how you are coping with the grief - asking brainless questions. We've literally seen convicted felon trump and epstein partying it up. They were as close as that, co-rapists and pedophiles.
Im not grieving, I have been saying for years that they want Trump out , as a lesson to any other wonnabe and for trillions of dollars in stake. They can kill for that, they want to weld absolute power.
I know you are a reformed conspiracy theorist , this should jog your memory and interest you.

Alex Jones of infowars has a list
and agenda of those attending this years Bilderderg 70th Annual conference.

https://www.infowars.com/posts/bilderberg-70th-annual-conference-kicks-off-meeting-agenda-and-attendees-released/

This is real journalism, unlike those who scream gotcha questions in press conferences.
Dont just dismiss opinions of others because their core beliefs don't align with yourself. There are cases where others have a better understanding than you.

Why this is important. Alex Jones is nuts. He once attended that meeting, took photos and videos before they outed him and kicked him out. The video was on youtube but he was effectively deplatformed and his accounts deleted.
The list does have serious heavy lifters of our workd including .Adewale Adeyemo.

Im willing to bet you all those on that list do not support Trump. Notice I just don't dismiss you just because you are a gone case.

---If Trump is religious as he claim to be---he shouldn't have got involved with Stormy during the time when Melania just gave birth to Baron---
Now exactly what did the jury find Trump guilty of?
The actual felony. Tax evasion, falsifying business records or
campaign violations ?

The indictment moved from a misdemeanor to concealment of another crime. Which actual crime?

The Appeals court, what crine will they be requested to overturn?

Apologists claiming it was not a political trial but immediately they began to talk about elections.
Adam Schiff who is a client of the judges daughter (that Trump was barred from talking about) already soliciting for donations.
Ijebosb the trial has nothing to do witn politics , Soros funded Alvin Bragg campaigned on getting the New Yorker Trump.
I've checked other threads here, A majority seem to think the trial was dubious.

Brah, stop lying. Biden forgot he had the documents and returned it immediately they asked for it. Trump on the other hand, wanted to keep the documents. The Feds requested those documents for months on end, but Trump refused to return it. What would you have them do?
Liar . He read some docs out to his biographer in 2017 informing him they were classified. His son is reasonably suspected of using a classified document in 2015 to his business partners. Search for Biden transcript with his biographer who deleted the tape recording as soon as Trump was indicted

Trump's wife Melania and Ivanka never supported him during this trial. His lawyer Cohen and other staff have been convicted of crimes which Trump was actively involved, so why not Trump getting the guilty verdict.
Yes you are right. At Mar a Lago the Gestapo took numerous photos of her bedroom implying they dont share the same bed.
Im pretty sure Melania an Ivanka told you they dont support Trump.
Cohen was a plea deal not from evidence from a just trial. Only a fool cannot see how that plea deal was arrived at.

Apart from.the usual TDS infected ops ,Im hardly seeing the ululations and jubilations over the verdict.
Everyone here I suppose sees this as culmination of a banana republic and political vendetta by the deep state.
Trump has always said they are coming after the people, he is only in their way.
Joe Biden: "We just have to demonstrate that he will not take power by -- if he does run -- making sure, under legitimate efforts of our Constitution, does not become our next president again."
Factcheckers twisted this to mean what he didn't mean.

I hear Trumps donations website crashed.

Lets see what happens , I think this kangaroo court verdict might have stepped on too hot coals.

Im not sure the reporting that this crime is not bailable. Judge Merchan has set sentencing to 4 days before the Republican convention. I saw reporting about Florida delegates to the convention being manipulated by RINOs.

Choice tweet from AG Paxton. Remember he can indict Joe Biden over the border policies, now that noone is above the law.Ill revisit hi take two days ago about the FBI being worse than the Gestapo.

You are calling someone a terrorist, a terrorist lover, and an antisemite because you are too stupid to backup your views on the topic.
This makes you a disgusting person.

But, I already knew that. Black people who support Trump are generally bigots filled with self hate. And being equally stupid, rip their masks off when called out on their stupidity. Just like the white people who call black people "nigger" the minute they get upset.
Listen to what Hamas, Abbas, Arafat, Khamenei, Nasrallah say before yapping about fellow terrorist supporters.

this has been a kangaroo court from the

It seems dishonesty is a prerequisite for being a conservative in this thread.
You said anyone who supports a cease fire and/or a 2 state solution and/or criticizes Netanyahu is a terrorist, antisemite, terrorist supporter, Hamas supporter and wants to kill Jewish people. Because you stand by the morals of the west.. blah blah blah

Here are those western Values in Trudeau taking the same position as I have. He supports the ICJ, is calling for a cease fire and believes Netanyahu is responsible for the lack of a 2 state solution and wants a 2 state solution which means he recognizes the Palestinians should have their own government. I'm sure you know what a 2 state solution is.

Man up and call him a terrorist supporter, terrorist and someone who wants to kill Jews. You're an intellectually dishonest hack, bigot and lunatic.
You are mouthing off on a topic that you know zero about. Have you read Hamas charter and it's view of Israel for a start?
Is there a distinct people called Palestinians?

Most of this post is a lack of understanding of NY Law and supplementing that lack of understanding by people willing to lie to you.
1.) Most of your questions would be answered if you read the jury instructions.
I pulled out some sections below.

2.) The jury instructions have been written down, as you have them and have linked them. By NY law, they are not given to the Jury. Nor are they given the witness testimonies. They have to ask for them if they want them. When they do ask, the Judge brings both defense and prosecution in to decide what they should get. In fact the Defense could decide to hand the jurythe the jury instructions. But, that's not beneficial to the defense, so they won't. This is all NY law and out of Merchan's hands. In fact Judge's usually lean toward the defense as they don't want the case to be overturned on appeal. Merchan has definitely been generous toward Trump in this case.

3.) Comparing Mother Theresa to Trump in a case involving sleeping with a Prostitute is beyond the pale even for degenerates like you. At the crux of this is the fact that Trump did in fact break the law.
I have gone through the opinions of tens of attorneys in the media.They are all saying the judge should be quartered. His every action was to aid the prosecution. I will take their opinion, not from NYT or Jessicarabbit.

On the other hand it's probably good you are becoming aware that the propaganda places like the food writer you listen to generally lie to you.
What did judge do for the 4-4+4 rule? Like they dont have to agree on which predicate law voz broken but that a law was broken.
Say count 1
4 jurors say tax law was broken, 4 say falsifying business records, 4 say violation of federal election law . Makes it 12, count 1 was 'unanimous' because all jurors believe that one predicate law was violated.Mother Teresa could be found guilty by this judge merchan.

Secondly he didnt write down jury instructions. He read them. If they need clarification,they blow a dog whistle He rereads for them again. They should rely on the notes they took when these 55 pages of instructions were read to them.

Reading the shit you post is tiresome. There's never any thought or depth to it. You just regurgitate propaganda as if you don't really have any core beliefs about anything and if you do, don't have the intellectual range to align them with what you read.

1.) Alito lied about the sequence of events. The neighbors called the police after Alito's wife harassed them weeks after the flag flew. The timing is memorialized by a Police Report/Call. The flag was put up around Jan. 17th, 3 days before Biden's inauguration.


https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/28/us/justice-alito-neighbors-stop-steal-flag.html

If you did read Alito's letter and not whatever propaganda was fed to you, you would notice he didn't explain the purpose of flying either flags. For the upside down flag he tells the ridiculous story that his wife flew it, he no idea about it, yet when he noticed it took it down (why did he take it down if it didn't have a nefarious purpose?) He goes on to say his wife owns half the house so she has the right to fly what she wants. The same for the 2nd flag. Doesn't explain why, of all the flags in the world she flew that one and says that his wife bought that house. Now imagine, a Conservative Man's response to a controversy is that he can't control what his wife does even though it may affect his career. Esp. a Conservative man who is 1 of 9 unelected judges appointed for a lifetime. It's bullshit


2.) The meanings of Flags and symbols change over time if they are co-opted. Just like the swastika did. The swastika had a different meaning before it was adopted by the Nazi Party. Christian Nationals took over the Appeal to Heaven flag about a decade ago. And since then that is what it has been associated with. California has been flying that same flag for 60 years. I'm sure they weren't aware it had been co-opted by Chrisitain Nationals. Someone like Alito would be aware what the flag stood for as he is a Christian Nationalist and the progenitor of the movement saw him as his hope. He also had access to Alito's circle. Why else would they fly such an old rarely flown flag at their private residence? Coincidence. Don't believe in such. Esp. combined with the first Trumper flag.


From <https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/22/us/justice-alito-flag-appeal-to-heaven.html>

3.) The bigger picture. What separates the US from the rest of the world are our courts. Courts that people believe in because of the belief in its fairness and it's impartiality. Alito is destroying that perception. It's all fun and games for you because you're incapable of real thought. You live in a Nigeria, where Justices are bought and corrupt and so justice is bought and sold. And by all accounts that's working out for you right? Yeah.. you can keep that bullshit there.

NYT to the rescue. Pure propaganda horse shit to keep low level IQ sheeple contained within the plantation. Not worth my time reading
Kangaroo courts are the hallmark of America. Judge Merchan comes to mind. Randomly chosen in 3 Trump cases, against Steve Bannon and Allan Wesselberg whom he all jailed. Donated to Biden. His daughter is a Biden fundraiser earning commissions, she has hauled in $93m using this case, proof in emails she sends out. Merchan disrespectful, never using 'President Trump' in the courtroom. He blocked defence expert federal witness testimony on campaign finances on the basis that he is the one to explain the law to jurors.His jurors , 15/18 get their news overwhelmingly from your rag NYT.See breakdown.He allowed irrelevant testimony meant to make Trump look like a criminal. Upto the last day he instructs jury to examine 3 laws that Trump may hav broken and does not need a unanimous verdict..(Im not 100% sure about this media reporting). Prosecutors inflate a misdemeanor at most to a felony .
Yes Can America preach about justice to shitholes?

Next up. Gestapo FBI.

Ijebosb,

Justice Alito has rejected calls to recuse himself from jan 6 cases plus Trump's because his wife was the one who flies the flags,all sorts of flags and its within her rights.The property is jointly owned, she is an equal partner.

Meanwhile
The city of San Francisco has taken down an “Appeal to Heaven” flag that’s flown in its Civic Central Plaza for 60 years after the The New York Times described it as a “January 6 symbol” in a piece noting that it flew at a beach home owned by Supreme Court Justice Sam Alito and his wife.

Looks like there are very dumbed down people over there in America. The ones who never saw wrong with Frisco flying that flag for 60 years.
Or maybe some things don't matter unless it has to do with Trump.
Others are disinterested because banging white pussy is a priority and a yuuge achievement to them.

I see you're employing the Basilico defense. Obfuscate until the point is lost.
You know your point was that anyone who calls for a cease fire, supports palestinians or criticizes Israel's over -aggressive genocidal war is a Terrorist and Terrorist supporter. So, now that France, part of the "West", has criticized Israel and says it's time for a cease fire, are they terrorists and terrorist supporters as well?
Of course they are not.. only simpletons reduce criticism of Israel to that.

Can't point to France on a map? lol. I speak French and have been to France.. et toi?
The mere fact that you support Biden policies wrt Middle East and especially Iran shows you are either a terrorist supporter or an incorrigible fool. I do understand you get your warped positions from liberal rags like wapo, huffpo msndnc and nyt.

The longstanding effort to keep extremist forces out of government in Europe is officially over.

For decades, political parties of all kinds joined forces to keep the hard-right far from the levers of power. Today, this strategy — known in France as a cordon sanitaire (or firewall) — is falling apart, as populist and nationalist parties grow in strength across the Continent.

Five EU countries — Italy, Finland, Slovakia, Hungary and the Czech Republic — have hard-right parties in government. In Sweden, the survival of the executive relies on a confidence and supply agreement with the nationalist Sweden Democrats, the second-largest force in parliament. In the Netherlands, the anti-Islamic firebrand Geert Wilders is on the verge of power, having sealed a historic deal to form the most right-wing government in recent Dutch history.[/i]

The author is demonizing right wing as if his position is the gospel truth.
You no elite, being an American grants you not a single IQ advantage.So absorbed in your bubble you can't see the walls of the left crumbling down block by block.

Hunter is on trial. His lover Hallie Biden, widow of his dead brother is a star witness in his gun case coming up in a weeks time.

Now She is star witness. Joe Bifen visited her yesterday,claiming its 4 days to his son's memorial. In other words, witness tampering.

Thats a fake story very widespread unfortunately in sub-Saharan Africa.
Arabs invasion never changed the genetic of native poeple in north africa . Its someyhing impossible to do for a hudge north aftican population .

Native population adopted the islam religion , the official language arabic . Thats why by definition they are arab countries . ( ex: if nigeria for exemple adopts Arabic as first official language ,it will be able to submit its candidacy to the organization of Arab countries and once approved become an Arab country too without changing anything to its population )

And for native language in maghreb ( the amazigh) is widely used in all maghreb , its even an official state language studied at school . And the arabic dialect spoken in the Maghreb is different from the Arabic of the Middle East. Middle Eastern Arabs don't even understand it. to communicate with them you must use classical academic Arabic .

Pic . Algeria ( arabic, amazigh and french)
Hmm classical arabic is a well known tactic used to explain why any critic should shut up .
I have listened to a clasical arabic speaker who is a Christian and he says there is nothing special about the classical when it comes interpreting what the books mean.
