President Trump didn’t make any entries because no CEO of any multi-billion dollar company makes entries to the financials.
Lights going dim for DA Bragg’s case before going totally dark.
OH SHIT meter railing.
bttt
LOL
“They want Trump to become “convicted felon” Donald Trump...”
Heck, even “Donald Trump, charged with xx felonies....” works on the low IQ voters.

Doesn’t matter. It will be like Engeron. Merchan will declare no trial is needed and declare Trump is guilty of something, anything, and all that remains is how long he shall remain in prison.
What the hell do they teach in law schools? How to prepare an invoice?
Bragg forfeited huis right to life liberty and happiness by this effort
Good point✔ In Bragg's initial filing he never even mentioned the election law violation; he is trying to wedge it in as an extra.🤔 ...except that New York shredded the Constitution when it became a 'Rat controlled state. sigh Same with California... same with D.C.❓ More piling on. American people need to awaken soon❗
Funny how NO ONE IN THE PRESS remembers that Slick Clinton ‘paid’ Paula Jones $850,000.00 dollars ‘not to have sex with him.’
And then, sap Monica who DID have (and it even wasn’t ‘sex-sex’ or ‘is-is’ or something like that) ended up vilified and living the life of a Leper.
Socialist Democrat Logic! A Pox on all their houses!
Patriots HAVE had enough. LANDSLIDE win for President in Exile Trump come this November. Let’s make it a GLORIOUS Victory, FReepers!
When our federal level politicians have to use the taxpayer funded secret hush fund to pay to those accusing them of some sexual peccadillo, how do they account for it in the ‘books’ ????
The real ‘problem’ with the ‘freedom of speech’ issue is that ‘freedom of speech’ only applies to a citizen’s RIGHT to address the federal government with grievances WITHOUT PERSECUTION.
It has nothing to do with what one citizen may say to another or to any other entity.
The first amendment bundled parts of several key civil rights together. They were not limited to how the people interacted with government; they were focused on how the people interacted with each other. Remember that prior to the Revolution, British soldiers would stand on street corners watching the people for signs of subversive behavior. The first amendment was to guarantee to the people that the new government would never do this.
Here is the text of now-Representative James Madison's first draft of what would become the first amendment submitted to the 1st Congress House of Representatives:
- The civil rights of none shall be abridged on account of religious belief or worship, nor shall any national religion be established, nor shall the full and equal rights of conscience be in any manner, or on any pretext, infringed.
- The people shall not be deprived or abridged of their right to speak, to write, or to publish their sentiments; and the freedom of the press, as one of the great bulwarks of liberty, shall be inviolable.
- The people shall not be restrained from peaceably assembling and consulting for their common good; nor from applying to the Legislature by petitions, or remonstrances, for redress of their grievances.
Notice that in #5, Madison said "sentiments," not "grievances." Freedom of speech was not limited to speaking of grievances to the government. In #6, Madison says that people can peaceably assemble to "consult" for their "commong good." This supports #5 in that "consulting" is "free speech," and "common good" is sharing and comparing amongst themselves the sentiments of the people.
I don't believe that this intent was meant to be stripped away when the 1st Senate streamlined the amendments. Besides, limiting free speech to only a redress of grievances to the government would itself be an infringement on the people's right to free speech.

“We want no Gestapo or Secret Police. F. B. I. is trending in that direction.” - Harry S Truman)
It is not at all proper for courts to try to make laws or to read law school theories into the law and policy laid down by the Congress.
We want no Gestapo or Secret Police. F.B.I. is tending in that direction. They are dabbling in sex life scandles [sic] and plain blackmail, when they should be catching criminals.
May 12, 1945 | Harry S. Truman
