President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

Who was it that once said, “Let those of you who have not raw-dogged a porn star and paid $130,000 in hush money cast the first stone.”?

 

I've ignored all news all day. I refuse to give this schmuck one more second of attention (until the morning). I'll assume he's calling for a popular uprising.

 

He’s attacking the judge, the judge’s family, the DA, Hunter Biden, Joe Biden and Hillary because … HER EMAILS!

 

It's unique in American history because we never elected a career con man, grifter, serial liar who cheated on his third wife with a porn star before.

The theory is this: New York law makes it a crime to falsify business records. Ordinarily, that is just a misdemeanor. But if the falsification is done with intent to defraud and intent to conceal another crime, that act becomes a felony.

That is exactly what this case is about,” Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg said during a news conference following Trump’s arraignment. “Thirty-four false statements made to cover up other crimes. These are felony crimes in New York state no matter who you are. We cannot and will not normalize serious criminal conduct.”

Okay, but what are the other crimes Trump is accused of covering up? The indictment doesn’t say, but Bragg was asked on Tuesday, and he offered a few possibilities. First, he said, the doctored records “violated New York election law, which makes it a crime to conspire to promote a candidacy by unlawful means,” including making false statements. Second, Bragg cited the federal election law cap on contribution limits.

But, but, but. This is not well-trodden legal territory. If I understood Bragg’s argument correctly, there is a certain circularity to saying that a false statement on corporate books becomes a felony, not a misdemeanor, because state election law makes it a misdemeanor to promote a candidacy by unlawful means, such as making false statements.

 

SSDD, in other words.

 

Please, he was shoved out of a window years ago.

 

That's because Clinton was only married once!

 

Actually, I just deleted that because per the indictment the Enquirer determined that it wasn't true.

But then why pay him?
