Trump NY Case: Done
“…Trump appealed his “criminal” conviction in NY.
Notice that the actual hearing got basically zero coverage in the media.
Want to know why?
Because the justices on the court blew the case up during argument, leaving the prosecution now trying to argue not to keep the conviction but rather trying to argue they shouldn’t be sanctioned for bringing it in the first place.
In order, the prosecution was asked to identify just one case where a bank loaned money, got paid back as agreed, nobody was harmed economically and then was prosecuted for this under the alleged statute. They could not.
Then they were asked to find just one case where between two business entities with extensive knowledge (e.g. “sophisticated parties”) where no economic harm was alleged such a case was prosecuted and maintained. They could not.
Now were there a rule of law criminal malicious prosecution indictments would be in the offing for James and everyone else involved in said prosecution and all of them would be facing a decade in the slammer. But we don’t live in such a world, do we?
And before you claim these are “MAGA” Judges, no they’re not — this is the New York Court of Appeals.
Nor do we live in a world where even reporting on such an incident is within the realm of reasonable expectation.
Now tell me, given that record, why would you ever set up and operate a business or, for that matter, put in anything other than the absolute minimum effort to survive when at any time some wild-eyed green-haired chucklefuck can take an “interest” in you and decide to try to jail you when, in fact, you committed no offense whatsoever…”
