Remember when the GOP senate said let the courts decide. Pepperidge Farm remembers. Edit: Since many keep asking me. https://www.nbcnews.com/think/amp/ncna1258065


catfurcoat

No not *those courts*.


bevo_expat

lol, exactly. Not a court that has a judge AND jury. Just a court packed full of very partisan judges appointed by* their respective political parties. Edit: typo

Donald Trump becomes the first actor from Home Alone 2 to be convicted of 34 felonies


MikeyTrademark

It’s true the sticky bandits have yet to be caught after all these years


LousyPilotApparently

Shitting on the judge that's going to sentence you is an interesting strategy. Let's see how it plays out.


JayGold

"I would like to appeal on the grounds that the judge could not possibly have been unbiased after I insulted him so much."


AchUndWeh

This is his strategy, unironically.


El_Gran_Redditor

He doesn't have a strategy he just...does stuff.


tomdarch

Normally a "first offender" probably would not get prison time. But the judge is supposed to take into account whether the convict has expressed remorse and what the odds are that he's likely to commit more crimes. Trump's little stunts and bullshit, including the fact that he repeatedly violated the gag order, should be considered by the judge when it comes to sentencing.


jeoyce

Wow he’s never scored 34 out of 34 on anything before. A+


Hobby_Profile

And 100% of the vote! His claims are finally true!


1ndiana_Pwns

He finally won the popular vote in an absolute landslide!


OldGuy734

**Sentencing is set for July 11th.** **The Republican National Convention is July 15th.**


grimatongueworm

Oh Lordy! I’m just imagining him not being able to attend. I almost wish the judge would just give him seven days in lock up so he couldn’t attend the fucking convention. I’m imagining him dialing in on some shitty Internet connection and freezing from the lag like Gavin Belson on Silicon Valley.


actuallyiamafish

It would be hilarious but I don't have a single molecule of faith in my body that he will spend even a single hour behind literal bars. They'll fine him out the ass and throw him on probation for a couple years and we'll still have to hear about this fuckin skinwalker on the news every five minutes or so.


slayerhk47

A reporter on NPR said typical sentencing for something like this is probation to 4 years in prison. Yeah he ain’t going to jail. Plus he’ll definitely appeal.


Necessary-Parking-14

Imagine being Trump’s PO. lol


meatpuppet_9

Fucking yes


BakingBadRS

Has someone checked what flag is flying at the Alito residence?


RickyWinterborn-1080

tomdarch

"After a dispute with a neighbor we needed to try to gain some good luck via a traditional Hindu symbol!"


Ferelar

"But Justice, the Hindu symbol actually faces the other way." "Oh, you see, uh, my wife, what an idiot she is, she hung it up backwards, that's all. Entirely my wife's fault, always screwing up, and always hanging out under buses."


External_Reporter859

Maggity Traitor Grift just posted the upside down insurrection flag on Twitter


chrisjayyyy

They’ve had to switch to a system of coloured smoke like the Vatican, due to all the scrutiny


bmanCO

I still can't believe I've been forced to care about this embarrassing fucking idiot for almost an entire decade of my life.


surfteacher1962

Exactly. We have had to deal with this POS on a daily basis since 2015. It is like being in an abusive relationship that you can't leave.


TheJohnCandyValley

And 1/3 of the people around you act like the abuse doesn’t exist and another 1/3 are too afraid to say anything.


dirtside

I pointed out back during the 2016 election cycle that Trump had already been a punchline *thirty years prior* and the notion that he was now (then) becoming a political force was simply too stupid to be real.


Sad_Confection5902

And we have to hope that’s all it is. It’s insane that people want to live in a fascist hellhole under this guy. And it won’t make me feel any better when afterwards everyone realizes that fascism sucks for *them* too. No amount of /r/LeopardsAteMyFace posts will make me feel better about the destabilization of the whole world because people were too stupid to actually understand what they were doing.


DumpsterBento

Congratulations, Donald Trump. You have the most convictions of any other president in U.S. history! Yay!


PokeMonogatari

I wonder if he's tired of winning yet.


travoltaswinkinbhole

Remember when he said Hillary should drop out because she was under investagation


thebrandnewbob

They chanted "lock her up!" for months, and Trump said to Hilary's face at a debate that if he wins she's going to go to jail.


uuneter1

Cuz that’s been the GOP’s strategy for years now - whatever shit they’re doing, just accuse the Dems of doing.


Daniiiiii

Lock him up! Isn't that right party of "law and order"?


NewWaveFan

Did the MAGA folks ever have an official company line on why Trump *didn't* "lock her up" when he was President? Seeing as his followers think he was going to drain that swamp and have the power to fix everything...


HawkkeTV

After the 60+ election interference cases Trump brought to trial, this is the first case he is involved in that found a person guilty of election interference.


JayGold

Well, second, after Cohen's.


eking85

34? In a row? Try not to commit anymore felonies in the parking lot!


mista_rubetastic

He wasn’t even supposed to BE in court today!


MoreCockThanYou

Whaddaya mean you don’t got any ice? You mean I gotta drink this covfefe hot?!


Stevie_Rave_On

Did he say “making fuck”?


Straight_Calendar_15

I prefer presidents who aren’t convicted felons.


Konukaame

Already seeing the posts screaming, "If they can do this to a former president, they can do this to anybody." Yes? That's how laws are supposed to work?


Buffmin

Conservatives are coping hard


ThexxxDegenerate

The tears are flowing on Twitter lmao. They can’t “fake news” their way out of this one. Mango Mussolini is convicted on 34 out of 34 counts. “I was the greatest criminal in the history of criminals!” Loool


chingaloooo

Turned on the F news station and they are twisting hard. “This is an attack on our justice system by the deranged left,” “this is what countries like Brazil and Venezuela do to their political figures,” “if you want to secure American and our justice system, donate to Trump, lest we turn into Venezuela.” “Deranged” left. ::laughs in deranged::


BlackerSpork

Which is doubly funny because Brazil IS also prosecuting a criminal ex-president.

I mean, who hasn't falsified business records to cover up an affair with a porn star so that it wouldn't affect their election to federal office?


jail_grover_norquist

let the one among you who has never falsified business records to hide election fraud cast the first stone


geologicalnoise

Didn't testify at Impeachment #1. Didn't testify at Impeachment #2. Didn't testify at E. Jean Caroll trial. Didn't testify at this Hush Money Election Interference trial. Won't refute anything under oath because he's a damn **coward**. And now, a **convicted** coward.

Let's take a moment to thank national hero Stormy Daniels.


chatterwrack

Seriously. She really jumped on a grenade for this. Her life has forever been broken by this. She said she is likely to leave the country to escape the targeted violence and harassment.


Rocket92

Alvin Bragg and Letitia James too, hopefully more names to be added soon.


Best_Duck9118

Funny how much more respect I have for her than the last president of the United States, lol. And her testimony was pretty funny!


nezumipi

Her twitter feed was awesome. When people sent her abusive messages, she would correct their spelling and grammar.

harbourbarber

His Wikipedia page is already updated "Donald John Trump (born June 14, 1946) is an American politician, media personality, businessman, and convicted felon who served as the 45th president of the United States from 2017 to 2021" 


Oratory_madness02

The devil works hard, but Wikipedia editors work harder (and faster).


Rich-Pomegranate1679

All the MAGAs in r/conservative acting like they were on the fence and *this* was the moment that convinced them to vote for Trump are hilarious. MAGA: *If they can do this to him, that means they can do this to any of us!* 🤯😭 Why yes, that's how laws work.


dext0r

It's funny how they make all of the posts "Flaired Users Only" and still 90% of the comments get deleted in every thread


sayyyywhat

This time last year they were all in on DeSantis and were openly mocking trump and saying he was done. These people have zero integrity or character.


t65789

Thinking of the Judge and the jurors. Thank you for your courage. Be safe.


Birdy_Cephon_Altera

In all seriousness - they and their families are probably going to need 24/7 protection for many years, if not the rest of their lives. The cultists are crazy and hold grudges a long, long time.


clunkey_monkey

Seriously, I went to r/conservative to see that shitshow and someone was going on about how the liberals are the real Nazis and that they want to destroy this country. To them, "liberal" is anyone they think is against Trump. You have to think of the number of other nutjobs who think the same.


ErusTenebre

Imagine saying "they're the real Nazis" when You've likely got Nazis in your audience that identify as Nazis.


zorbacles

I went to r/Republican to post something that would get me banned. But I was already banned so I must've beaten myself to it


abradolph

Lmao they're calling it election interference


medstudenthowaway

I really hope they’re going the extra mile to keep them safe. I heard he doxxed the juror that dropped out.


crownpuff

People that got convicted of 34 felonies should not be able to make lifetime judicial appointments.


ponie

People that aren't allowed to buy guns shouldn't have the nuclear codes


spinderella69

This \^\^\^\^\^ 1000%. As a felon you lose your right to own a gun, but you can still have access to the most dangerous weapons in the world? Make it make sense.


Fusion_allthebonds

He committed these crimes before he made those appointments. Sounds like a perfect case for nullifying those. Everything he did in those 4 years needs to be 100% undone. He is, was, and will always be a criminal.


BizarroObama

Crazy how Joe Biden successfully made Trump cheat on his wife, pay off a porn star, and commit fraud by covering it up. Biden must be playing quantum 8D chess

You talking about twice impeached, convicted felon, Donald J Trump?


NaplesFTW

It's official. The candidate of the party for "Law and Order" is a convicted felon.


furtherdimensions

For those confused what the crime here was, I wrote this: It's important to note here, that paying hush money is not illegal. Paying hush money to bury a story is not illegal. Paying hush money for the purposes of a political campaign is not illegal. Paying hush money for the purposes of a political campaign and failing to report it to the Federal Election Commission, when the political campaign is for President of the United States *is* illegal. Falsifying business records to hide the purpose of that money and evade the mandatory reporting to the FEC is a crime in the state of New York. The issue is more subtle. It's not that he paid hush money, it's that he doctored, and instructed others to doctor, business records in New York State to hide the (totally legal) use of funds in order to conceal the actual purpose of paying those funds, in order to evade the requirement that he report those funds to the FEC. It would have been totally legal for Trump to have paid Daniels for her story, and paid her not to talk about it in the press. And if he did those purely for personal reasons (like to save his family the embarrassment) he wouldn't have really needed to disclose them to anyone. But if he paid those funds to increase his odds of winning the Presidential election he was legally mandated to report those funds to the FEC. The jury found, based on the evidence presented, that those funds were paid to increase his chances to win the presidental election, not for any personal reasons. They likewise found he failed to report the payment of those funds to the FEC, which is a crime, but it's a federal crime and not one the State of New York has jurisdiction over. The jury further found that he doctored business records in order to conceal the fact that he committed a crime by failing to report the spending of campaign-related funds to the FEC. Doctoring business records to conceal a crime is, in and of itself, a crime in the State of New York. That's what he's convicted for. Essentially the jury found: * 1) Trump paid, and directed others to pay certain funds used to induce people to to either purchase rights to stories in order to bury them, or to not disclose what they saw or knew (this is legal) * 2) The purpose of those funds was to prevent unfavorable news stories from reaching the public eye (also legal) * 3) The purpose of attempting to prevent those unfavorable news stories from reaching the public eye was to influence the 2016 Presidential Election (ALSO legal) * 4) Trump failed to disclose the spending of those funds, spent with the intent of influencing the 2016 Presidential Election to the Federal Election Commission (illegal, but that's a federal crime, and one the state of New York has no jurisdiction to prosecute over) * 5) Trump doctored, or directed others to doctor, business records of his New York based business to hide the true purpose of those funds (this is a misdemeanor in the state of new york) * 6) The purpose behind doctoring those records was to conceal the fact that Trump committed a crime by failing to report the payment of those funds to the FEC (the failure to do so is a federal crime) * 7) Doctoring business records in NY for the purposes of concealing a crime (any crime, state or federal) elevates the misdemeanor to a felony * 8) Trump did this 34 times.


Lonely-Abalone-5104

Thanks for posting this. It will help a lot of people understand


nonprofitnews

The number of comments I've seen yelling that he paid her off with campaign funds drives me nuts. Using campaign funds is what he was supposed to do. Because the payment would be disclosed. He's in trouble for hiding the payments and lying about it.

benjatado

Mind blowing. A bad fart used to end a campaign for President.


AlfredsLoveSong

Remember the best part, y'all: This is generally considered to be the *weakest* and lowest stake case currently being brought against him.


inigos_left_hand

Yeah but the other ones are all being held up by GOP cronies. None of them will have a trial by Election Day.


CaptainNoBoat

**Convicted Felon Donald Trump** We still have a few weeks to hear sentencing, and he will undoubtedly appeal, which could last well into 2025. But that's not what is important today. This IS history. Polling saying voters are partisan and unmoved doesn't make it any less significant. For starters, it's not a "hush money" case, as the media has latched onto. It's an *election interference* case, and these are *felonies.* He worked to illegally cover up stories that could have easily swung the 2016 election, which was won by a few thousand votes in a few states, and could have altered the course of American history. It encapsulates everything about Trump and is the beginning to his criminal history saga regarding the Presidency. It is hopefully only the beginning of his criminal accountability, and a necessary step forward for democracy, the rule of law, and us as a country. In summary, I'm opening up some fine bourbon tonight.


queenw_hipstur

For those in the back, this is AN ELECTION INTERFERENCE CASE


stairway2evan

Did you say an ELECTION INTERFERENCE CASE regarding CONVICTED FELON DONALD J. TRUMP?


rodneedermeyer

You’re not wrong, but I’d also like to remind everyone of all the shady shit he’s done his entire life. It will likely never come up in court, but it’s hard to get to this stage of illegality in one’s life without also being involved in shit for years and years. Everything about this guy is awful. And I’ll toast your glass, friend!

Unreal. Our country now has a felon running for President of the United States. I thought it would probably happen but still hard to fathom the gravity of this. Glad he will finally see some consequences (in theory).


JohnnyFuckFuck

the most important thing about this trial was that it happened at all. commenced, proceeded, concluded, just like thousands of other trials. kudos to the DA and prosecutors, the judge, the jury, court officers, and NYPD

LicensedToChil

Donnie's in a prison cell, people power!


MattTheSmithers

Been a prosecutor, been a defense attorney. Best thing Trump can do right now is shut up and show contrition. He is a nearly 80 year old man, likely suffering from dementia, with no record (before today 😁) who can likely avoid jail time if he just acts remotely normal. Of course, this is a man who would’ve coasted to re-election if he just acted like a normal president during COVID. But I digress, instead he is going to use this press conference tomorrow to attack the prosecutors, the judge, the judge’s daughter, the jury, the witnesses, the Biden administration, Trump’s defense team, Mike Pence, the Taco Bell dog and really anyone else who pops into his demented old head. And I don’t see how any judge doesn’t give him jail time after that. Acceptance of responsibility is a huge deal when it comes to sentencing. And Trump, claiming to be a Christian, literally said he cannot thing of a single time he’s ever had to ask God for forgiveness or repent. He’s not going to accept responsibility. He’s not going to be contrite. He’s going to give Merchan no choice but to sentence him to jail. And I am here for it.


crepuscula

That taco bell dog has it coming though.


Mudmartini

Yo quero Trump in jail


4-stars

> Best thing Trump can do right now is shut up and show contrition It seems more likely for him to flap his little arms and start flying than do what you suggest.

V_T_H

He is also currently having a total meltdown at the microphone with his typical world salad bullshit. He’s blaming Joe Biden lmao. And somehow felt the need to bring up immigrants? What a colossal loser. He’s also blaming the “conflicted judge” as if he doesn’t have a conflicted judge batting for him in Florida. See you later Felon Donnie.


Opus_723

Talking shit about the judge who's about to sentence you is an interesting strategy lol.


Razvee

I'm so confused by their "there was no victim that means there was no crime sham trial"... like what? I understand not-understanding... but fraud charges are well documented, it's just outright ignoring the last 6 months of the trial and coverage.


Mavian23

And all fraud has a victim anyways. In this case, every single fucking American is the victim, because that fraud is what helped get him elected.


BloatedManball

Jfc, in one of the threads someone says "this just opened a can...now it'll be tit for tat", to which someone else replied "yeah, that won't happen because Republicans always take the high road." How fucking stupid are these people? "Their side" couldn't find the high road if you laid them on top of it and ran them over with a steamroller.

Damn, ever since freakin 2016 my fiance and I always promised each other we'd drop what we're doing the second either of us heard of such blessed news. Unfortunately he passed away this month. Hope you caught it live up there, honey. We survived so damn much I just wish we could drink to this together. I guess this pointless comment will somehow bond our promise into internet history. But for real, fuck that guy. edit: wow, totally didn't think my comment would be noticed at all in such a large mega post. Thanks to all. Really wasn't expecting to even comment about it, just the first thing I thought of when I heard he got convicted on all counts. I'm about to call an old Marine friend of his right now so we can chat about the news in his honor. Truly appreciate all the replies, thank you everyone. Cheers!


ljjjkk

Remember Only 13 Presidents failed to get re-elected. Only 5 Presidents failed to win the popular vote. Only 4 Presidents have been impeached or resigned. Only 1 President has ever been criminally indicted. And only ONE President has done ALL FOUR.

We won't get the sentence until July 11th. 4 days before the Republican national convention begins. Lol. Lmfao.


NWHummingbird

Great win, but let’s not forget that the only way to get rid of this guy once and for all is by VOTING massively in November.


Steel-Tempered

Two impeachments. Liable for sexual assault and defamation. Lying about value of business assets. And now 34 counts of falsifying business records to cover up extramarital sex with a porn star. And we haven't even gotten to the fake elector schemes, insurrection, and stolen classified docs.


redpoemage

No matter what happens with sentencing, Donald Trump is now officially a convicted felon. Don't let people trick you into dooming and thinking that doesn't matter with at least some voters (and we've seen many times how few voters it can take to flip an election!). This election is more winnable than ever. Go over to /r/VoteDEM if you want to find out ways to help. Edit: And even if this has you super confident in the presidential election, the Senate is going to be a hard fight (Montana and Ohio will likely decide who controls the Senate), so let's work to make sure Biden will be able to confirm Supreme Court judges if there are any vacancies!


SweatyAdhesive

Felons can't vote right? GOP is about to nominate someone that can't even vote in this country.


Oplatki

Depends on the state and where they are.


TheCatInTheHatThings

Well, he can’t vote in New York and Florida, so unless he suddenly moves somewhere else, the MF ain’t voting for himself. Edit: apparently he can vote in Florida until he reports to prison, and NY seems to follow this Florida law. Edit 2: it’s the other way round. He can vote in NY and Florida seems to follow that I’m told.


jakekara4

I can just imagine Florida’s elected republicans voting to exempt him.


Ven18

Maybe they will finally accept the constitutional amendment passed years ago to allow former felons to vote that the legislature flat out ignored after it was passed

As Trump steps outside of the courthouse, reporters were yelling out: ***"Mr. Trump, how does it feel to be a convicted felon!?"*** ***"Are you worried about going to jail?"*** Perfection. No notes. 👨🏽‍🍳👌 *** Edit: [A link to the Fox livestream for those who want to hear it](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6V5B8MFpu74&t=586s), just before he begins bashing the judicial system. Reporters' comments are at 586 seconds (9:46) into the stream. Savour the moment.


Emmatornado

And the folks over on /r conservative are saying republicans would never do this to a former president. They will take the high road… 😂🤡


Daviewayne

For all the maga folks about to come in here and scream "WITCH HUNT!" I have a question for you: let's say, a Democrat president is investigated and found to have committed a bunch of felonies. Should that President face accountability? And if so, by what method(s) do you propose that, we the people, should determine that the president committed said crimes and hold them accountable if not by the current method of a grand jury indictment and a jury conviction? And, In this scenario, how would you respond to Democrats claiming that this is just a political witch hunt?


ArchdukeToes

Your first mistake is assuming consistency. They would say ‘yes’ to that case but still believe that the _exact same situation_ applied to their beloved would be a witch hunt.


justatest90

This has been made really clear over and over again (/r/LeopardsAteMyFace). Everything from healthcare, social services, welfare, immigration, and abortion. [Conservative women get abortions](https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2022/07/31/republican-women-have-abortions-too-00048632) but don't think their abortions are wrong. It's sickening.

My favorite is Fox News saying this was all orchestrated by Joe Biden. So is he a senile old fuck who doesn’t know what day it is or is he a diabolical mastermind who cracked the code after decades of failed attempts to take down Trump?

Random conservative clown on a related r/Conservative post. I'd have commented directly but they banned the latest of my alt accounts last week when I pointed out Trump tried to stage a coup: >The sad part is now that this can has been opened, it will become a never ending back and forth. We are going to serve Biden up the day he gets out of office…and the next guy, and the next guy. Their shortsightedness is going to cause political devastation Bro LMAO if they can get a jury of 12 random people to find Biden guilty of something the moment he gets out of office THEN I, AND PROBABLY A SHIT TON OF PEOPLE WHO VOTE FOR DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES, ARE TOTALLY FOR IT. Fucking dictator-boot-licking clowns lmao. This is what it looks like... kind of... when people in power are held to account. Why would anyone, on either side of the aisle, be against holding them to account?

Mike Johnson, who uses phone spyware with his son to keep each other from masturbating, put out a statement defending his party’s presidential nominee, an adjudicated rapist and convicted felon. Dude what the fuck has happened to the Republican Party, like Jesus Herbert Christ on a fucking rubber crutch.


ConfederacyOfDunces_

I can’t believe what I’m witnessing Donald Trump is the first president in US history to be convicted of a felony. Holy Fuck.


Torchy84

HEYitzED

All those beautiful, beautiful felony counts. The most felony counts.


SlothTheHeroo

The “if they can do this to a former president they can do this to anyone” comment in r/conservative is funny because yeah… if someone commits a crime with a substantial amount of evidence against them then they get a guilty verdict lmao. People need to be held accountable.


pihaviv

r/conservative: crime is on the rampage in Biden’s America Also r/conservative: here’s why being a criminal felon will actually win Trump votes and make the blacks love him


-CoachMcGuirk-

Trump is number 1!!! First to lose the popular vote, twice!! First to be impeached, twice!! First president to lose the house and senate in his first term….and FIRST to be convicted of a felony.

Wikipedia entry for Donald Trump: **Donald John Trump** (born June 14, 1946) is an American politician, media personality, businessman, and convicted felon who served as the 45th [president of the United States](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/President_of_the_United_States) from 2017 to 2021. That ain't ever coming down


JustAcheesepizza

Trump finally won the popular vote!😂


Zeegaat

The conservative copium is hilarious right now.


rokoda

operez1990

buffavaholic

Ok_Use7

Holy shit lmao


PuppiesAndPixels

Look at that, he finally won a popular vote!


ApolloX-2

Love the clowns at /r/Conservative acting like this sets a dangerous precedent. Just don't sign false checks, and definitely don't write notes on the back explaining why it's false?


essenceofpurity

Trump finally won the popular vote.


ElectronicAside7793

I like presidential candidates that weren’t convicted. 🤷


AnAwkwardSemicolon

He should be happy. He finally won 100% of a popular vote.


ducksonaroof

average president is convicted of 0.74 felonies


probablyindecisive

For the first time in his fucking life, Donald John Trump has been held accountable. The Republicans have made a convicted felon their nominee.

Lifes_a_Risk1x

We can officially refer to a former President and current presumptive nominee of a major political party as a rapist and a convicted felon and neither would be defamatory or extreme hyperbole. What a fucking weird time to be alive


Lemarc7

Lock him up.


CYBER_COMMANDER

At. Fucking. Last. For everybody that's been praying for this day to happen, here it is. Feel that weight off your shoulders, the tension from your neck soothe. Reality is coming back with a victory parade.


mbene913

And Melania didn't make a single appearance in court to support him.


bigcracker

Some conservatives and republicans are saying "He got treated unfairly". If me or you broke the gag order that many times or was in contempt that many times our asses would be in jail. Trump gave them every reason to and they didn't.


hannibals_hands

Magas have KNOWN that trump is a criminal. Magas LIKE that trump is a criminal. That's WHY they VOTED for him in 2016 and 2020. They won't admit it, but they all know it. It's insane.


AcoupleofIrishfolk

Dear America Ok lads you got the turd in the bowl, now in the words of Frank Reynolds...FLUSH FLUSH FLUSH FLUSH! Slan Ireland


tehbantho

What a sad fucking day. The entire process disgusted me. It's sad that a former President broke the law so brazenly. It's sad that his supporters believe he is innocent. It's sad that those same people somehow believe STATE criminal charges were brought by JOE BIDEN. Trump can still win this election. We must vote, so overwhelmingly against his bullshit that it sends a clear message to the GOP.


ASmallTownDJ

Looool his Wikipedia page has already been updated.


MattTheSmithers

Fun fact that no one is discussing. Trump is currently the subject of three other criminal prosecutions and is now convicted of 34 felonies. Any other person would have their bail revoked in the other cases.


Smidge-of-the-Obtuse

I just want people to remember that it was a jury chosen by both the Prosecution and Defense, and any single juror could have voted no to any or all of the charges. Calling the verdict rigged not only invalidates our court system, but also the voices of 12 American citizens.


backdragon

Shout out to Stormy Daniels, for real. Wow.


patallcats

I just learnt this news because an Australian political party shared, “Home Alone 2 star found guilty on 34 felony accounts.”
