….“Then, when prosecutors showed similar disregard for his own rulings in their closing arguments, Merchan simply let it slide. But none of this, none of this can hold a candle to Merchan’s instructions to the jury before they began deliberations. Firstly, Merchan told the jury they did not have to agree on what crime Trump committed (or, indeed, whether he committed a crime at all). Even if four jurors believed Trump had committed one crime, four believed he had committed a second (but not the first), and four believed he committed a third (but not the first two), Merchan would treat that as a unanimous verdict. In other words, the jury were allowed to act like South Park’s underpants gnomes, and convict Trump under the following theory:Point 1: Trump falsified his business records to commit a crime (specified in point 2)Point 2: ?????????????Point 3: GUILTY!….

….“Thirdly, Merchan allowed the prosecution to charge Trump with a misdemeanor crime which has long been considered dead due to its vague character. Fourthly, Merchan allowed the jury to convict Trump not because he specifically intended to defraud anyone, but rather because of a ‘general intent’ to defraud ‘any person or entity.’ In other words, even if he didn’t falsify anything in this case, if you think Donald Trump is a lying liarpants, you can still convict him because of his ‘general intent.” Is it any wonder that Trump was convicted on all 34 counts, on this basis?….
Paul Ingrassia: “This was not a new case: it had been circulating in various court systems, federal and state, for years. These charges were only brought this year to interfere with the 2024 presidential race, period. President Trump is now the leading presidential candidate, by every reputable poll, and the frontrunner by significant margins, a gap that has only expanded over time. There is no reason why this case should be brought now, six months before Election Day, unless there was a conspiracy to prevent President Trump from being on the campaign trail in key swing states, like PA, MI, AZ, and GA, which is exactly what occurred.”
Mark Levin: “New York’s effort to prejudice the Presidential election is comparable to Colorado’s determination, unanimously vacated by the Supreme Court in Trump v. Anderson, 601 U.S. 100 (2024), to remove one Presidential candidate from its ballot. Colorado purported to invoke a federal constitutional provision, but it was also a one-State effort to interfere with the Presidential election. New York’s conduct is more egregious, will cause more lasting damage, and calls more crucially for a Supreme Court remedy.”

After sitting for five weeks through that RIG trial in Lower Manhattan, which was surrounded by vast but unnecessary numbers of New York's finest in order to keep law-abiding MAGA patriots away, and as I watched insignificant numbers of fully funded radical left troublemakers with brand new and gleaming professionally made signs, screaming and cursing from areas said to be close to us and all others, I realize that reason, truth, and love of our country is no longer a force of good and change. These are dark days in America, but we will make America great again. Thank you.

RECORD AMOUNT RAISED FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP’S CAMPAIGNIN MAY ALONE – $141 MILLION IN SMALL DONATIONS,ALMOST $300 MILLION OVERALL!Today, President Trump’s Campaign, together with the RNC, announced a massive $141 million fundraising haul in May, a response of support for President Trump while facing the sham Biden trial and verdict that outraged and motivated Americans from every walk of life. This overwhelming financial success is the result of over 2 million donations, A RECORD, which came in at an average of $70.27. In addition to the staggering amount, 25% of May’s donors were brand new to the 2024 campaign, making the month the best ever recorded for any Campaign in History. Additionally, organizations supporting President Trump raised another $150 million in May. Taken together, the Campaign, and other Trump supporting organizations, raised almost $300 million during the month of May alone, ALSO A RECORD!
Dr. Sebastian Gorka: “In a back and forth lasting for hours, with scores of requests from either side, Merchan accepted every demand from Alvin Bragg's team, and none from the defense. Correction: He said off one request, ‘I’ll think about it.’ As Matt Whittaker, former Attorney General, has stated, Judge Merchan should be wearing the jersey of the prosecution. At one point, he even said to the President’s attorney, as he was standing up and preparing to make a point: ‘Sit down, I don’t want to hear from you again!’ Is any more proof needed than that for you to believe this is a show trial designed to steal the election before the first ballot is cast?”

This was done by the Biden administration in order to wound or hurt an opponent, a political opponent. Mr. President, can you tell us, sir, Donald Trump refers himself as a political prisoner and blames you directly. What's your response to that, sir?

….There is no one in America who would go through what he is going through for us. Not one person, and President Trump is the only one that can give us our Country back - A Secure Border, deport the Criminals, lock up the Terrorists, bring Law and Order back to our Communities, bring down Inflation, strengthen our Military, make us Energy Independent again, and put an end to this Woke Culture that doesn’t bring us together, but only divides us, and so much more…No matter what they throw at him, he just won’t quit because he knows the future of our Nation is at risk…No President in History has been attacked more than him, and he’s standing firm for you and me…THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN IS TO ELECT PRESIDENT TRUMP ONCE AGAIN TO THE WHITE HOUSE!”

Rep. Jim Jordan: “The best line of the day came from President Trump when he said the real verdict will be on November 5th…” https://www.DonaldJTrump.com
Video transcript
I still think the best line of the day came from President Trump, and you've said it already, but when President Trump came out and said the real verdict will be on November 5th, he couldn't be more right, because that day, we the people will decide who's going to win, who's going to be our president, not some partisan judge, not some political prosecutor, not 12 people from Manhattan, but we the people, 330 million of us get to decide on that day. That, to me, is the real takeaway here, and I think the American people are going to be clearly and strongly for President Trump. You can feel that. You saw what happened with the website today. You know, President Trump uses a line that I think is so good when he's out on the stump, when he's at these rallies. He says, "They're coming after my freedom because I'm fighting for yours," and I think the country sees that even more clear today, and that's why I think he's going to win.

The real verdict will be on November 5th by THE PEOPLE—they know what happened here! https://www.DonaldJTrump.com

- Thank you for joining us here today. Earlier this afternoon, Donald Trump was arranged by a Manhattan grand jury on 34 felony counts. - This case is an abomination. You know, it's obviously political. Seven years try to come up with this case. They're just wrong on the law. - The only crime that Donald Trump is being prosecuted for is the crime of running for president. - Political persecution at the highest level. - They've quite frankly given up on trying to beating at the polls. Either gonna steal it or stop it by law firm. - A Democrat prosecutor elected on a get Trump platform. - What's going on here is a disgusting disgrace. It is war on Trump, it is war on the Republican party, and it is a war on a Republican. - This case is the weakest case I've seen in 60 years of teaching, practicing, and writing about criminal law. - I doubt the New York indictment would have been brought against a defendant whose name was not Donald Trump. - This judge, I mean, you don't need a prosecutor if you have a judge like this. This judge is not on the level. - It's a terrible case, but the judge has been pretty much a rubber stamp on everything that Greg has wanted to do. - They're perverting the system of justice. That's where the danger lies, the corruption and subversion of our institutions by the left. - This is the Democrats' entire strategy to confine President Trump to a dirty criminal courtroom and keep him off the campaign trail where he can bring his winning message to voters across this country. - New York has become a legal banana republic. They are so determined to get Donald Trump. - Look, convicting Donald Trump, that's all they have. - I think they have no cards, and they're depending upon Trump getting convicted. - That Trump train doesn't show any signs of slowing down. - The only verdict that matters is the verdict at the ballot box.
