Yes it is...it's not my fault you can't understand the charges. Maybe go whine with HisArpy. He claims to be a lawyer....No it wasn’t.
Merchan is making decisions based on NY law which in this case has precedent under NY statute. What makes this case unique is the use of federal statutory violations to commit an additional crime.I think Judge Merchan could face debarment for his actions in this case. The N.Y. Comp. Codes R. & Regs. Tit. 22 § 100.5 - A judge or candidate for elective judicial office shall refrain from inappropriate political activity
(h) soliciting funds for, paying an assessment to, or making a contribution to a political organization or candidate;

We know that Merchan donated to Team Biden, and The Progressive Turnout Project.
NEW YORK STATE BAR ASSOCIATION
CODE OF JUDICIAL CONDUCT
Adopted by the
New York State Bar Association
Effective April 13, 1996
(E) Disqualification.
(1) A judge shall disqualify himself or herself in a proceeding in which the
judge's impartiality might reasonably be questioned, including but not limited to
instances where:
(a) (i) the judge has a personal bias or prejudice concerning a party or
(ii) the judge has personal knowledge of disputed evidentiary facts concerning the
proceeding
(c) the judge knows that he or she, individually or as a fiduciary, or the
judge's spouse or minor child residing in the judge's household has an economic
interest in the subject matter in controversy or in a party to the proceeding or has any
other interest that could be substantially affected by the proceeding;
(d) the judge knows that the judge or the judge's spouse, or a person

spouse of such a person:

Richardson v United States:
"The jury must be unanimous as to the "series" of underlying offenses in the CCE prosecution. That is the jury must unanimously agree not only that the defendant committed some "continuing series of violations" but also about which specific "violations" make up that continuing series."
In this case, Merchan said the opposite, that the jury didn't have to agree. In other words, Merchan is telling the jury they don't have to agree on any guilt of the elements of the crime that are intended to elevate the misdemeanor violation into the felony the Prosecution is alleging results from those elements.
The alleged felony is why the case is in court and carrying a four-year prison sentence, which wouldn't exist if this were a misdemeanor because it would never have reached a courtroom as the statute of limitations ran out in 2019.
Additionally, we see 55 pages of jury instructions the jury was not allowed to take with them into the jury room, Why? Who could remember 55 pages of detailed jury instructions? We also see the allegedly neutral judge take on the burden of the prosecution by instructing the jury as to where in the evidence they might look to find incriminating evidence against the defendant. The judge prevented lawyers from even discussing the jury instructions in their closing arguments. Absolutely unheard of.
A Bar complaint has already been filed against Merchan by a Representative of Congress with the state of NY. There may be criminal activity in this prosecution between Merchan and Bragg that could come to light before this is finished.
Wow you are close, what could make this a federal statutory violation is Trump's reason for falsification. Was it to protect his family ( if so why wasn't Melania or Baron or .... called) or if his intent was to influence the election outcome.Merchan is making decisions based on NY law which in this case has precedent under NY statute.

I forgot that they had to get through 34 charges, one by one. Maybe Monday or Tuesday?Or .....
lol so do we get heads on the right exploding? That would be funny....Verdict incoming.

I'll be honest here, as a Canadian I really don't care how the verdict goes (I've posted previously on my prediction) but to me, Trump being convicted gives me the greatest laughs. Him being acquitted though does come a close second on the hilarity scale. The RWCJ will be entertaining me no matter which this goes....We'll know in about 30 minutes.

Donald Trump and his attorneys and the prosecutors are occasionally chatting amongst themselves, but they are mostly sitting still and waiting for the judge and the jury to return.
Trump has just taken something out of his pocket and popped it into his mouth.
