every legal mind commenting on this has said this is ridiculous and totally corrupt....this coming from lefties righties and everyone in between...
I haven't found this to be so.
He is free until sentencing.
When the verdict was announced, I was skeptical they would seek jail time. But I have been seeing folks saying they will seek jail time. They will use Trump's contempt counts against him.
Crazy that Enquirer was part of both of these cases.
😂
It basically means Trump can walk out of the courtroom tonight.
He doesn't have to make any arrangements. He doesn't have to put up any money.
It's done. Trump left.
They are not requiring bail....they will let Trump out until the sentencing.
Are you thinking of John Edwards?
He was tried, but got acquitted.
The DA and Trump's lawyers will file motions suggesting an appropriate sentence.
We are at the end of the trial. So the arrest happened long ago.
There was no peep walk in handcuffs, but when Trump turned himself in that is an arrest. So he's been arrested 4 times already.
That is a standard instruction on what circumstanial is.
Same metaphor is used here.
It will be nothing like that.
He will have the normal sentencing considerations. Like concurrent sentences and first time offender.
There's no guarantee at all there will be a prison sentence.
First he will appeal in the NY courts
So an hour ago. They excused the jury. I thought They were going home for the night.
At this time I'm going to excuse the jury," Justice Merchan says to the parties.
Crazy day
Hokey Smokes!
What do think Russia would be able to do that. When they couldn't in FEB 2022?
Sooooooo score one for the fake news media?
The Secret Service was called a few hours before it all went down.
Nobody has suggested the FBI had weapons out.
The Secret Service rules on using force are pretty much the FBI's.
I did a post on this

In the recently released court filings we learned how the FBI and the SS interacted that day.
On Page 23 there's another exihibit. Created on August 17 Search warrant executed at 10:33 am, but the FBI got to MAL at 9am. Took pictures outside. at 9:15 they called Person 18 who I'm pretty sure is Trump's lawyer Evan Corcoran who like the designated documents contact. 9:30 they heard back from him.
It mentions what the coordination between FBI and the Secret Service was. Prior the FBI entering MAL, FBI leadership "informed and coordinated" with local USSS leadership.
Local USSS facilitated entry onto the premises, provided escort and access to various locations within and posted USSS personnel at the locations where the FBI searched
That it's not specific to this case
The New York Court of Appeals — the state's highest court — ruled in a 1987 case that a judge cannot provide a copy of their written instructions to the jury
It's just how New York does it
This commenter doesn't think it will pass

Netanyahu still has 64 members majority in the Knesset even if Gantz leaves the coalition. So no majority at the moment for dissolving the Knesset
One Key thing I forgot, the jurors wanted speakers or headphones, so they must want to listen to audio. Cohen recorded Trump. and there's another phone call I think.
Waiting game again.

It also strikes me funny that there has been no mention of where Melania or Barron were.
It was August, the family doesn't stay in Florida in August. I don't blame theme
If either of them were home it would have been a shootout.
How? How would this happen?
The Deposition was known. Other Trumps had just done there deposition and Trump's upcoming one was in the news.
CPAC was a public event. Trump spoke there, the day before.
I don't. Have a link?
The way Eric Trump tells the story, he said he got the call from Mar a Lago and he was the one to tell his dad the FBI was there.
Has Trump said anything about this?
His ex national security advisor who he is still close with just met with Netanyahu.
