Alvin Bragg Kicks Off Another Frenzied Lawfare Trial With Weakest Case Against Trump Yet
BY: M.D. KITTLE
APRIL 12, 2024
6 MIN READ
No reasonable jury in America would convict anyone of the charges laid out against Trump, but this is New York City.
The weakest of the four politically motivated criminal cases against former President Donald Trump goes to trial on Monday, as the left’s lawfare season heats up.
Legal experts on both sides of the political coin agree that Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s trumped up case against Trump stretches to snapping the thin legal premise the Democrat is pushing. No reasonable jury in America would convict anyone of the charges laid out against the Republican Party’s presidential candidate, nationally recognized attorneys say.
But this is New York City. With four liberals per square inch, Trump could expect a more impartial jury pool in Havana.
“If Alvin Bragg had charged Donald Trump with illegally eating a ham sandwich, they would find him guilty,” constitutional law expert Hans von Spakovsky told me this week. “He is going to get a totally biased jury.”
How did we get here? Short answer: Politics. Longer answer, a pornography peddler and a “novel legal theory” that metamorphosized a bogus state misdemeanor charge of falsifying business records into an incredible federal election law felony. Thirty-four separate felony counts, to be precise, carrying a maximum combined sentence of 136 years in prison.
Bragg, who on the campaign trail bragged about suing Trump “more than a hundred times” gets the first crack at the left’s No. 1 political enemy on the criminal charges front. And the Democrat prosecutor is throwing everything he’s got — even if he’s got very little — at Trump to deliver a prosecution against President Joe Biden’s November opponent.
Legless Lawfare
The saga began years ago. Aging pornographer Stormy Daniels claimed to have had an affair with Trump in 2006. Trump has denied the allegations. During the 2016 presidential campaign, Trump’s former attorney Michael Cohen paid Daniels $130,000 to sign a nondisclosure agreement about the alleged affair. The money did not come from campaign funds. Cohen, who covered the payments up front, sought reimbursement from the Trump Organization. He noted the invoiced reimbursements as “legal services” as opposed to something more direct like “reimbursement for settlement payment re: extra-marital sex,” as law experts John Yoo and John Shu put it.
Bragg, as von Spakovsky wrote upon the indictment, has elevated a New York State misdemeanor charge of falsifying business records (a suspect charge as well) by allegedly doing so to cover up a federal crime of hiding campaign expenditures. Trump did so, Bragg contends, “in order to influence the 2016 presidential election.”
“Those claiming the settlement with Stormy Daniels was a campaign-related expense and a violation of campaign finance law don’t have much of a leg to stand on,” von Spakovsky, a former Federal Election Commissioner and Senior Fellow at the Heritage Foundation wrote in 2018. “This is particularly so given that the Justice Department tried to make a similar legal claim against former Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards without success.”
Nondisclosure Agreements Arenu2019t Illegal
As Yoo and Shu explained in their February op-ed, prior to Braggu2019s breathless pursuit, Southern District of New York prosecutors and the FEC looked into Trumpu2019s so-called campaign violations. Both u201cdeclined to pursue the case because Trump used his own money, not campaign finance money, and because reimbursing someone for a hush-money payment does not fit the definition of an in-kind campaign contribution.u201d
u201cIn fact, candidates do not have to disclose expenses that would have been incurred even if no campaign existed; it is highly likely that Trump would have paid Daniels regardless just to avoid any marital strife or embarrassment to himself and his family,u201d wrote Yoo, a Professor of Law at the University of California at Berkeley, and Shu, a legal scholar and commentator who served in the administrations of Presidents George H. W. Bush and George W. Bush.
Federal campaign law strictly prohibits candidates from using any campaign funds for what are considered personal expenses. Say you buy a car and six months later you decide to run for office. You canu2019t use your monthly car payments as a campaign expense. Letu2019s face it, Bidenu2019s weaponized U.S. Department of Justice would have been all over Trump had the former president run afoul of the law.
u201cHad Donald Trump used campaign funds to enter into a settlement into payment with this woman the DOJ would have gone after him,u201d von Spakovsky said.
The settlement has been described as u201chush money.u201d But there are a long list of famous leftists who have demanded such nondisclosure agreements. Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus, and Tiger Woods, just to name a new. Remember when Rep. Nancy Pelosi called fellow Democrat colleague John Conyers an u201ciconu201d after the Michigan congressman resigned under a cloud of sexual misconduct allegations? Pelosi took quite a tongue lashing for lionizing a man whose aide Marion Brown claimed violated her body and propositioned her for sex. Guess who was forced to sign a nondisclosure agreement? Brown broke the NDA to tell her story.
u2018Double System of Justiceu2019
Of course, the statute of limitations on the alleged crimes has expired, but partisan Bragg is pushing New Yorku2019s u201ctollingu201d provision that stops the clock when the suspect is out of state.
u201cBut itu2019s hard to believe the legislature would have intended u2026 that serving as president of the United States counts as being out of state,u201d David Shapiro, a financial crimes specialist and former FBI special agent, told CBC News.
u201cThis case is going to have serious, serious problems,u201d Mark Bederow, a criminal defense attorney and former New York City prosecutor, told CBC News before the grand jury came back more than a year ago with its indictment against Trump. He said Braggu2019s decision to pursue formal charges was u201cstunning.u201d
Yoo and Shu shoot down Braggu2019s assertion that had the Trump campaign disclosed the u201cin-kindu201d payment before the election it would have affected the outcome. Trump lost deep blue New York by 20-plus points. So he would have lost by more votes? Besides, the payment would not have been required to be reported until months after the election.
u201cAgain, imagine that a district attorney decided to charge [Secretary of State] Tony Blinken and Hunter Biden for an illegal, undisclosed in-kind campaign contribution when they lied in October 2020 to conceal that the abandoned laptop actually belonged to Hunter (u201cearmarks of a Russian information operationu201d),u201d the legal experts wrote.
Itu2019s difficult to see Braggu2019s case as anything but the naked political prosecution it is. But a Manhattan grand jury agreed to this insane indictment. What are the chances a Manhattan trial jury wonu2019t convict the man the left loves to hate?
But thereu2019s a price to pay for this political show trial, and some Democrats are smart enough to know the bill could be quite costly. In this case, exposing Americau2019s double system of justice will likely do more to help Trump than to hurt him this November.

Judicial Watch Asks Court to Order Release of CIA Communications with Clinton Campaign Lawyer Michael Sussmann
(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today that a federal court hearing was held Tuesday, April 9, regarding its Freedom of Information Act lawsuit seeking to compel the CIA to produce records about its contacts with former Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann, who was unsuccessfully prosecuted by Special Counsel John Durham for making false statement to a federal agent.
Judicial Watch filed the February 2022 lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia after the CIA failed to reply to an October 2021 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request for records regarding meetings or telephonic conversations with Sussmann (formerly an attorney with Perkins Coie) (Judicial Watch v. Central Intelligence Agency (No. 1:22-cv-00412)).
During the hearing, Judicial Watch explained to the court that the case was filed more than two years ago and that it took the CIA more than a year, until July 1, 2023, to provide four responsive records introduced into evidence at Sussman’s spring 2022 criminal trial.
Afterward, the CIA tried to have the case shut down, arguing to the court that its production of exhibits from Sussmann’s trial was sufficient and that it need not identify any other records responsive to Judicial Watch’s request or even disclose the number of such records in its files. The CIA also admitted that it had not even searched for records responsive to the 2021 request. When Judicial Watch demonstrated that the CIA’s arguments were meritless, the agency declared to the court in November 2023, that it would finally search for records. Most recently, it asked the court for an additional four months to provide only an update.
In March 2024, Judicial Watch argued:
Plaintiff submits that, under the circumstances, the time for updates is past and the case should move forward. The Agency should be required to produce whatever additional records it intends to produce and a Vaughn index, “no list/no numbers” or Glomar assertion by the July 10, 2024, date, with Plaintiff reserving its rights to challenge the additional searches and any withholdings.
“The CIA is in cover-up mode about its communications with the lawyer implicated in a shady spy operation against President Trump,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “What is the CIA hiding about its role in this plot against President Trump?”
A further hearing is set for May 2024.

Maine sues biochemical giant Monsanto over PCB contamination
Monsanto, now owned by Bayer, is a leading pharmaceutical and biotech company
Maine is suing biochemical giant Monsanto for allegedly knowingly selling products containing harmful chemicals that have contributed to contamination in the state.
The latest lawsuit targeting the company over the manufacture and sale of products with polychlorinated biphenyls, also known as PCBs, was filed on Thursday in Cumberland County Superior Court. It alleges that Monsanto knew about the danger of PCBs years before they were banned but continued to make and sell products containing them.
"We have evidence that Monsanto knew that its PCBs products were causing long-lasting harm and chose to continue to make money off poisoning Maine’s people and environment," Attorney General Aaron Frey said in a statement Friday. "I am taking action to demand that Monsanto pay for the harm it knowingly caused our state."
Monsanto is now owned by Bayer, a pharmaceutical and biotechnology company.

Monsanto, which said it discontinued production of PCBs five decades ago, described the lawsuit as "meritless" and said any sale of PCB-containing products would have come from third-party manufactures because it never manufactured or disposed of PCBs in Maine.
Vermont was the first state to sue Monsanto last year over PCB contamination of natural resources, followed by dozens of school districts in the state. Bayer agreed to pay $698 million to Oregon to end a lawsuit over PCB pollution in 2022.
PCBs are linked to numerous health concerns and are one of the chemicals responsible for fish consumption advisories in Maine. They were used in building materials and electrical equipment like transformers, capacitors and fluorescent lighting ballasts. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency banned manufacturing and certain uses of them in 1979 over concerns they could cause cancer and other illnesses.
Maine said it will be seeking damages for the costs of cleaning up, monitoring and mitigating 400 miles of Maine rivers and streams and 1.8 million ocean acres that are currently identified as impaired by PCBs.

@Kash
Did a single person in congress ask Wray why his FBI illegally used FISA 702 against Americans 278,000 times- targeted at political donors and Jan 6??? Anyone in congress have any desire to ask the necessary questions for actual accountability and reform instead of bickering over meaningless headlines

Shortly before final passage, the House rejected a commonsense amendment from Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) which would require a warrant to spy on Americans. 86 Republicans voted for authoritarianism, with Speaker Mike Johnson casting the decisive vote.
NEW: 86 Republicans just voted against @RepAndyBiggsAZ’s amendment to require a warrant to spy on Americans under FISA causing it to fail.

Former Trump official Kash Patel reminded Americans of the hundreds of thousands of times the DOJ-FBI used FISA to spy on Americans.
According to an official intelligence document the FBI illegally used FISA 278,000 times to spy on Americans including their political enemies like President Trump, Trump donors, and January 6 families.
This comes from the 2022 memorandum on FISA abuses.
On page 29 of the report: 23,132 separate queries on J6 protesters to find evidence of possible foreign influence despite having no indication of foreign influence related to the query terms used.
On page 31 of the report the analysts admitted to 278,000 non-compliant FBI queries of raw FISA-acquired information.
Kash Patel posted this on Truth Social.

Republican lawmakers passed the FISA renewal anyway. They do not represent the people. They represent their deep state masters.
