It's interesting then that he's been an elected official for 50 years, and investigated ceaselessly for 15 months by a motivated Republican-run Congress, and they haven't found as much as an unpaid parking ticket in which to charge him. The gulf between the claims made about Biden and the evidence offered is often as wide as the Grand Canyon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am having trouble with the fact that no e of you guys are EVER right about anything. As Slot ack said the other day, a broken clock is right twice a day but you are NEVER right.

DBP66 Posted March 19 Author Report Share Posted March 19 Looks like there is another Storm brewing...... Trump loses bid to block Michael Cohen, Stormy Daniels testimony at hush money trial Luc Cohen Updated Mon, March 18, 2024 at 5:53 PM EDT·3 min read 1k FILE PHOTO: Republican presidential candidate and former U.S. President Donald Trump holds rally in Richmond By Luc Cohen NEW YORK (Reuters) -Donald Trump on Monday lost a bid to block testimony from Michael Cohen and Stormy Daniels at his upcoming trial on charges stemming from hush money that Cohen, his former lawyer and fixer, paid Daniels, a porn star, before the 2016 election. Trump last month asked Justice Juan Merchan to block their testimony, arguing Cohen had a history of lying and would likely lie again, and that Daniels - whose real name is Stephanie Clifford - would seek to use the trial to monetize her story. In rejecting Trump's request to block Cohen's testimony, Merchan wrote he was unaware of any basis for Trump's "rationale that a prosecution witness should be kept off the witness stand because his credibility has been called into question." The Republican presidential candidate has pleaded not guilty to 34 counts of falsifying business records to cover up his reimbursement of Cohen for the payment to Daniels for her silence about a sexual encounter she says she had with Trump in 2006. Trump denies an encounter. A trial had initially been scheduled for March 25, but last week was delayed until at least mid-April due to a last-minute dispute over evidence disclosure. Merchan is expected to decide on a new trial date after a March 25 court hearing. A spokesperson for Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, whose office charged Trump last year, declined to comment. Trump's lawyers also declined to comment. The case is one of four criminal indictments Trump faces as he prepares for an expected challenge to Democratic President Joe Biden in the Nov. 5 election. He has also pleaded not guilty in the other cases, which focus on his efforts to reverse his 2020 loss to Biden and his handling of government documents after leaving office in 2021. In the Manhattan case, prosecutors argue the Daniels payoff was part of a broader "catch-and-kill" scheme Trump and Cohen hatched to buy the silence of people with negative information about the candidate. Cohen pleaded guilty to violating federal campaign finance laws in 2018. Merchan on Monday also denied Trump's request to exclude testimony from or any evidence about the three people who received hush money payments. These included Daniels, a doorman and Karen McDougal, a former Playboy model who says she had an affair with Trump, which he also denies. "The evidence and testimony surrounding these individuals is inextricably intertwined with the narrative of events and is necessary background for the jury," Merchan wrote. Prosecutors argued the October 2016 payment to Daniels was made as the Trump campaign panicked about his standing with female voters, following the leak of an "Access Hollywood" tape in which Trump boasted about forcing himself on women. In a modest victory for Trump, Merchan said prosecutors could ask witnesses about the tape, but agreed with Trump that playing the clip itself for the jury could cause him "undue prejudice." The judge said he may reconsider that ruling "should the Defense open the door." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBP66 Posted March 19 Author Report Share Posted March 19 What We Know About Trump’s Failure to Arrange a Half-Billion-Dollar Bond Kate Christobek and Ben Protess Tue, March 19, 2024 at 7:43 AM EDT·5 min read 306 Former President Donald Trump speaks to reporters outside State Supreme court in Manhattan, Dec. 7, 2023. (Dave Sanders/The New York Times In six days, the former president must secure an appeal bond for roughly half a billion dollars in his civil fraud case in New York, a possibility that was called into question Monday. In a court filing, Trump’s lawyers revealed that he had been unable to secure an appeal bond despite “diligent efforts” that included approaching about 30 bond companies. While Trump this month managed to post a $91.6 million bond in a defamation case he recently lost to writer E. Jean Carroll, securing the deal at the eleventh hour from a large insurance company, he lacks the assets needed to secure the far bigger guarantee for the fraud case. If he cannot produce the bond by March 25, Trump faces the possibility of financial disaster and humiliation. New York’s attorney general, who brought the fraud case, would be entitled to collect the $454 million and could seek to seize Trump’s New York properties or freeze his bank accounts. And Trump’s money problems spread well beyond New York. As the presumptive Republican nominee for president, he is facing increased pressure to raise money to fund his campaign, lagging behind his opponent, President Joe Biden, in fundraising. Here’s what we know about Trump’s financial problems: Why does Trump owe so much? Attorney General Letitia James took Trump to trial last fall and accused him of fraudulently inflating the value of his assets to obtain favorable loan terms. Trump lost, and Justice Arthur Engoron imposed a judgment of $355 million plus interest, amounting to $454 million. Although James could have moved to collect immediately, she offered a 30-day grace period, which ends March 25. Trump is now on the hook for the entirety of the judgment while he appeals. He can either come up with the money himself or, more likely, obtain a bond from a company that would promise to pay if Trump lost his appeal and defaulted. For a bond of this size, Trump would need to pledge a significant amount of collateral — as much as $557 million, his lawyers said — including as much cash as possible, as well as any stocks and bonds he could sell quickly. He would also owe the bond company a fee that could amount to $20 million. Does he have the money to cover it? Short answer: no. While Trump has long bragged about his wealth, his true financial position remains something of a mystery. A recent New York Times analysis found that Trump had more than $350 million in cash, but most of his other money was tied up in his real estate holdings. In other words, he is not liquid enough to offer the collateral required for a bond this big. And he has less cash available today than he did even a week ago. To secure the bond in the case he lost to Carroll, Trump most likely had to pledge more than $100 million in collateral to Chubb, the giant insurance company that provided the bond. What comes next? Trump has appealed the $454 million judgment and asked a higher New York court either to pause it or to accept a lesser bond of $100 million. James could also grant additional time for Trump to pay or show mercy to the former president by offering a counterproposal. He might appeal to the state’s highest court, quickly sell an asset or seek help from a wealthy supporter. And if all else fails, as a last resort, he could have the corporate entities implicated in the fraud case file for bankruptcy, which would automatically halt the judgment against those entities. But Trump is likely to balk at a bankruptcy filing. If none of these options happens by March 25, and Trump misses the deadline, James would be free to collect the money owed to the state. Could he use campaign money to pay James? Probably not. A super PAC supporting his candidacy can raise unlimited amounts but is legally banned from coordinating with him and cannot pay the judgment. And although the former president has used a political action committee under his control to pay for lawyers and witnesses in his legal cases, that group lacks the kind of money needed to address the $454 million penalty. He is now scrambling to raise campaign cash as he faces a significant financial disparity with Biden. Biden’s campaign recently announced that it had entered March with $155 million cash on hand. While the Trump operation has not released a more recent total, between his campaign account and the Republican National Committee, there was about $40 million at the end of January. What else is happening on March 25? Trump also has a crucial hearing in his Manhattan criminal case, which could be the first prosecution of a former American president. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg filed charges against Trump that accuse him of covering up a sex scandal involving a porn actor to bolster his 2016 presidential campaign. The case is now proceeding to trial. Jury selection was originally scheduled to start March 25, but the trial was delayed late last week after the disclosure of more than 100,000 pages of records that had been in the possession of the federal prosecutors. While the documents have now been turned over, the trial was postponed to mid-April to give Trump’s lawyers time to review the papers. Judge Juan M. Merchan set the March 25 hearing to determine if the trial should be delayed further and to rule on Trump’s motion for an outright dismissal. The Manhattan case is among four criminal prosecutions Trump faces. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too was fooled by all the direct evidence and obvious connections. Hell, I even believed the Republican report that was put out just after the Mueller report (that I also believed) that basically said the same things. I should of listened to Concha and the rest of those guys. They knew all along they were right, and the rest of the world was wrong.
