I make no claim to the moral high ground.

 

I was merely offering an opinion - sauce, geese and ganders and so forth.

Nice. Gives them some cred. This is New York right? Check judicial appointments in 6 months. Adds more cred. Angling for federal judge ships in the next admin too if it's Democratic. At any rate, New York State supreme Court or any New York State judge ship is a great gig. License to steal.

it is you and only you who brings her name into it and applies the term to her. 

 

I disagree with pretty much everything Yagoda says, but I don't feel the need to fabricate offenses or twist meaning.  

 

Whored in this context implies a mercenary, to the highest bidder for personal gain ethos, it is you alone who brings gender and alternative meaning into the conversation. 

That's characteristic of them. I can give them enough reality to make their heads explode.

Is the word whore something that's unacceptable? Doesnt appear blanked out. Speech policing much? 

 

You don't think US lawyers are whores?

Given the decisions lately of the supreme Court, I'd say six of those members might prove you have a point.

More idiocy. Do we need any more proof that you are not an American? If you were an American, you would know how prestigious it is to be a clerk for a supreme Court justice.


I admire your confidence in the intellect of the American public. Sadly I see no evidence to support such optimism.

Have you just woken up from a 4 year sleep? Your team ran on a "Get Trump" platform without a crime, which led to the biggest travesty of justice reviving expired crimes to persecute political rival. All the while sheilding a deeply corrupt child molester.

After cheering this on, the left do not get to lecture anybody on justice or truth.

There was plenty of evidence of crimes. Trump had a judge in Florida who made an extraordinary ruling overturning standard justice department practice. There wasn't time to appeal it. And the supreme Court decided that any crimes a president commits that might be conceivably connected to the office of president, can't be prosecuted. Even conservative legal commentators were mostly astonished by that decision.

My team? Fs get real, I'm not even guilty of being an American. Lucky me, my ancestors decided to stay in poverty and work it out. Proud of them, especially today

A career is important to a lawyer. They all just whored themselves into partnerships with some white shoe law firm attached to the Democrat crime organization.

Make sure they are never employed by the us government again.

No, that means the current case is not justified by the (lack of) evidence.  Without prejudice means they can re-file the case if they feel they can prove it.

 

Shirley, if Trump was as corrupt as you say, he'd simply pardon his crony for all crimes, even if not yet uncovered, going back ten years.

 

That would be corruption!

State charges here, trump can not pardon.

 

They, well respected lawyers, feel there is too much evidence to dismiss. Those lawyers are well known to be far from lefties. They're calling out the quid pro quo here.

Good riddance.

They did the right thing, and I think Trump did the wrong thing by canceling the case . 

 

He should have let it play out in the court.

If state charges, Trump would have no say over New York persecutors.  These are federal charges in federal court with, umm, federal persecutors defying their DOJ leadership.

 

But apparently Trump is not so corrupt as to give his crony a 10-year 10%-for-the-big-guy-so-never-even-gotta-go-to-trial-card.

I always thought these charges were trumped up.  Plus, the timing was suspect.

Nonsense. In fact, in the original letter to Sassoon, Bove specifically stated that the request for dismissal without prejudice hae nothing to do with lack of evidence but rather that other considerations took precedence. Namely, that Adams was cooperating with the Trump administration on immigration issues.

As for Trump's corruption, you've goit it exactly wrong. the reason Bove called for a dismissal without prejudice was to use that as a way to keep pressure on Adams to cooperate. If the government felt he wasn't cooperating, then they could refile the charges. 

Moreover, dismissing without prejudice and with theexpress option of again indicting Adams in the future creates obvious ethical problems, byimplicitly threatening future prosecution if Adams's cooperation with enforcing the immigration laws proves unsatisfactory to the Department. See In re Christoff, 690 N.E.2d 1135 (Ind. 1997)(disciplining prosecutor for threatening to renew a dormant criminal investigation against apotential candidate for public office in order to dissuade the candidate from running); Bruce A.

Page 8Green & Rebecca Roiphe, Who Should Police Politicization of the DOJ?, 35 Notre Dame J.L.Ethics & Pub. Pol'y 671, 681 (2021) ( noting that the Arizona Supreme Court disbarred the elected chief prosecutor of Maricopa County, Arizona, and his deputy, in part, for misusing their power to advance the chief prosecutor's partisan political interests) . Finally, given the highly generalized accusations of weaponization, weighed against the strength of the evidence against Adams, a court will likely question whether that basis is pretextual. See, e.g. , United States v. Greater Blouse,Skirt & Neckwear Contractors, 228 F. Supp. 483, 487 (S.D.N.Y. 1964) (courts “ should be satisfied that the reasons advanced for the proposed dismissal are substantial and the real grounds uponwhich the application is based")."

Got picked up for trafficking drugs?  We have bigger illegal alien fish to fry.  Go have a chat with Lt. Doge from the persecuter's office, and maybe you two can work out a deal.  Say, you're not allergic to wire, are you?
