Felon very upset when referred to accurately.
He finds most facts upsetting. See the NABJ panel.
Felons are weird.
Breaking: Felon doesn’t appreciate being told he is what he is
Let’s start with judges who were appointed by Trump recusing themselves from cases involving Trump.
Couldn’t happen to a more deserving
fellowfelon“Harris immediately framed her candidacy with a specific false reference to this case as a contest of ‘prosecutor vs. convicted felon,’” Trump’s filing says.
Harris’ framing is an “inaccurate attack,” it adds, without describing an inaccuracy. Harris is a former district attorney for San Francisco and attorney general for California; in May, Trump became the first former president convicted of a felony.
…
In brief response papers filed Friday, prosecutors called Trump’s latest recusal effort “vexations and frivolous.”
Trump’s “regurgitated” complaints about Loren Merchan’s work with Harris have already failed twice, including at the appellate level, and amount to little more than “overheated, hyperbolic rhetoric,” prosecutors added.
…
The letter alleges that Authentic Campaigns earned “over $7 million in compensation” for its work on campaigns involving Harris. The letter doesn’t allege that Authentic Campaigns’ work for Harris ever overlapped with her father presiding over the hush-money case.
In May of 2023, the New York Advisory Committee on Judicial Ethics found that Merchan wasn’t compromised by his daughter’s political activities, writing, “A relative’s independent political activities do not provide a reasonable basis to question the judge’s impartiality.”
This feels like an article on two unrelated topics, but it’s Trump so I should not be surprised.
His lawyers must know there is zero chance of Merchan recusing himself, or effecting any legal outcome by going after his daughter. This is pure political theater.
Trump’s lawyers know that they’ll be fired if they don’t file whatever idiocy Trump tells them to
I wonder what trick they use to get him to pay them
Surely by this point anyone dealing with him demands payment up front.
he’s such a whiny little fucking baby
A weird whiny little fucking baby!
Did he ever consider just, you know, not being a felon?
…No, that would have required avoiding crimes. My bad.
