Weisselberg will skate too when his defense attorney adds up all of the perks the DA receives that he isn't paying taxes on. What a joke.

Manhattan D A: Trump Skates
Are the walls closing in?


Oh, To buckle or to Unbuckle, that is the question.


Guys gotta be the squeakiest cleanest MoFo in the Country by now. Near 6 years and thousands of man hours, nary a peep regarding any meaningful crime.

Laughable.

Access Hollywood and Stormy Daniels. Six years of investigation, at untold cost — much of it billed to the taxpayers — and that’s what they came up with.

"...James’ prosecution of Trump is a flagrant violation of Standard 3-4.4 of the American Bar Association’s Model Standards for Prosecution Function.

This standard deals with discretion in filing, declining, maintaining, and dismissing criminal charges and says this:

(b) In exercising discretion to file and maintain charges, the prosecutor should not consider:

(i) partisan or other improper political or personal considerations;

(ii) hostility or personal animus towards a potential subject, or any other improper motive of the prosecutor

The other proof of the political motivation of these indictments is the fact that the alleged “crimes” — helping employees avoid taxes by giving them perks like cars, housing, and tuition — are almost never prosecuted by New York state. These are typically handled with civil fines and penalties....

This past week I was in New York and I spoke to two well-connected Democrats.

One told me New York prosecutors “just hate Trump so much” they are blind to the implications of what they are doing.

Another, a business leader, said that the biggest loser in the indictments was, in fact, President Joe Biden.

“The precedent has now been set, you can criminally prosecute a president and his associates,” the person said, pointing out the legal vulnerabilities of the president's son, Hunter Biden...."

Not really.

First of all, Republicans are much less likely to use the law as a partisan weapon against opposing candidates and their families, in the first place. (Disagree? Examples, please)

Secondly, Hunter Biden has not lived in the kind of Red-state jurisdictions where he might have to reasonably fear a rogue GOP prosecutor of investigator.

And more generally, few people of any political persuasion are as comically ripe for investigation as Hunter Biden. So whatever the “precedent” value of this anti-Trump jihad may be, there will be very few people to use it against in the future.
