Legal expert Alan Dershowitz called out Judge Juan Merchan for his “outrageous” rulings in the New York criminal trial against former President Trump, arguing the case should be broadcast on television so that Americans can see the “spectacle.”

On “The Brian Kilmeade Show,” Tuesday, Dershowitz called Merchan a “tyrant” after he threatened to strike the testimony of Bob Costello, the defense’s main witness, an act that Dershowitz argued would have violated the Sixth Amendment.

NY V. TRUMP: DEFENSE RESTS WITHOUT CALLING FORMER PRESIDENT TO TESTIFY; MOTION TO DISMISS PENDING

ALAN DERSHOWITZ: I’ve been in courthouses in every part of the world and in China, in Russia, in Ukraine, in Israel. I’ve been all over. I’ve never seen a spectacle like this. And that’s why it should have been on television, so the American public could see how outrageous this judge is. And CNN just does his bidding. CNN lies, lies through their teeth about what happened in court yesterday between Judge Merchan and Bob Costello. Bob Costello testifies, Merchan rules against him at every point, keeps out his testimony, makes outrageous rulings that any first-year student taking evidence would know was wrong.

Legal expert Alan Dershowitz criticized Judge Merchan for his “outrageous” rulings in the NY v Trump trial.

And Bob Costello does what I did: He rolled his eyes. And I rolled my eyes, I said, I couldn’t believe the judge was making these rulings. And the judge, thinking he’s a tyrant, clears the courtroom, throws out everybody from the media. For some reason, they allowed me to stay, and I watched as the judge berated him. And the judge said something I have never seen in a courtroom in my history, 60 years. He threatened to strike the testimony of the main witness for the defendant because of punishment of the witness for staring at the judge. Can you imagine the violation of the Sixth Amendment? The Sixth Amendment allows any defendant to confront witnesses and to present evidence in his defense. Can you imagine if this judge had actually struck the testimony of Bob Costello? It would result in an automatic mistrial, new trial, and a verdict against the prosecution. The judge was bluffing. He ought to be disciplined for making that threat because the threat was an idle threat. He obviously didn’t act on it. …

You can’t throw out a witness’s testimony and punish the defendant that way. It’s just an outrageous threat. And we didn’t see it because television is not allowed in the courtroom. … They just won’t allow the American public to watch this trial, and I don’t blame them. If I were the judge, I would never want this trial to be on television because he’s behaved so outrageously.

Defense attorneys in New York v. Trump rested their case Tuesday morning without calling former President Trump to the stand to testify.

The prosecution rested its case Monday, and Trump defense attorneys called two witnesses — paralegal Daniel Sitko and a former legal adviser to Michael Cohen, Robert Costello — before resting its case.

Judge Juan Merchan dismissed the jury until after Memorial Day.

The next day, Tuesday, May 28, the jury will hear closing arguments from Trump defense attorneys and New York prosecutors.

NY V TRUMP: JUDGE TO CONSIDER DEFENSE MOTION TO DISMISS AFTER PROSECUTION RESTS CASE

The China Syndrome is for real; Chinese are working their way up from Central America, then through Mexico. Once there, they are brought to our border by Coyotes,

where they slip into the United States.

This past year, by last count, 30,000 Chinese criminals entered. There is an onslaught of Chinese coming in because the economy in China is in a tailspin. Entrepreneurs who own small businesses have never recovered from the Covid-19 economic implosion. These Chinese fear for the future, especially those with children. They don’t see a way forward when jobs are scare and college is out of the question. Therefore, they are looking for more opportunity here.  

The online version states that Mossad’s Double Agent, Eli Copter, was the pilot; just before the crash he bailed, similar to Michael Guzman in the Bre-x scandal, way back in 1997. We will never know what took place in the cockpit, but all kidding aside this looks like flight MH370, with a disgruntled man of Islam at the controls – muttering over the speaker that Allah is great – before sending the plane full of passengers into a death dive, killing all on board.

But the real story here has not been told, most likely it never will. Islamic regimes are not apt at telling the truth. From our perspective it seems odd that three helicopters flying in formation, all in visual contact with each other, maintained to the highest degree, finds one with engine trouble. Sounds suspicious to us. The official version trots out that a weather event was responsible; yet again we pose that they were all flying in formation. Why is it that the two had no problem, but the one with the president, instruments of the highest caliber flew into a mountain. Was this a Mossad Thriller?

Perhaps Iran should have spent the money on helicopter maintenance rather than on missiles fire at Israel. What goes around, comes around. No pun intended.

We would be remiss if we didn’t mention the Biden administration sent condolences to the supreme leader. We remind our readers, that these are the same guys who have kidnapped our people on October 7, the same guys who killed our troops in Iraq, the same guys who sucked $6 billion from the Biden administration. The same guys who are funding the Houthis, the same guys who fund Hamas, the same guys who are in bed with Hezbollah and the same guys who sent Israel a present consisting of 300 missiles. And Biden sends well wishes. WTF.

Iranian president confirmed dead after chopper goes down, other officials killed

Jews were alleged to be dancing in the streets like the Hamas baby killers danced on October 7, 2023.

Rule number 1, no teleprompter, no notes. Rule number 2, see rule number 1.

First the good news: The Commission on Presidential Debates is dead, dead, dead. It ran a game rigged for Democrats for many cycles and deserved to die long ago. It is done for now. Good.

More good news: President Joe Biden issued a two-debate challenge Wednesday to former President Donald Trump which Trump instantly accepted via Truth Social. The former president immediately elaborated on his acceptance in a previously scheduled interview with me Wednesday morning. (The complete audio and transcript of the wide-ranging conversation is here.)

On the first subject of accepting the Biden invitation, the key exchange with me is:

HH: Okay.

DJT: And a stand-up podium is important. If he wants to sit down, you know, he wants to do things like he wants to sit down, I think a debate should be standing up. Don’t you agree with that?

HH: Well, I’ve done them both ways. The best debate in modern history was Lieberman and Cheney when they were sitting down, but that was a good moderator, and it went a long time, and I don’t think you’re going to find a good moderator very easily. I really don’t. I think you should have a liberal…

HH: Yes, I did. Yes, I did, and I…I don’t want Chris Wallace. I don’t want Candy Crowley. I want someone who’s fair, Mr. President. I just don’t want…

DJT: Yeah, that’s an interesting, that’s an interesting question. And the answer is yes, I think it’s a great idea. Nobody’s suggested that but you. See, you’re a step above. Nobody has suggested that but you. It’s a very good idea. I will be putting out a Supreme Court list.

HH: Oh, good.

DJT: That’s a very interesting idea. Yeah.

HH: Well, if you just listed a half dozen people, and I know Grenell, and I know O’Brien. These are my friends. And I know Waltz is on your list. And I’ve seen the vice president list. By the way, does Doug Burgum have this locked up?

DJT: No, but he’s very good. I’ll tell you, he’s really good. He’s an expert. You know, he made his money, made a lot of money in technology, and yet he’s, to me, I think he’s more of an expert on energy. He’s an very talented guy. He has a great wife and family.

Read or listen to the whole thing. Trump is energized and raring to go. Of course, President Biden is physically infirm and the video of his “debate challenge” had eight “jump cuts” as Fox News media analyst Joe Concha noted. How many “takes” did that require one wonders?

Team Biden stipulated that only certain networks could host the debates and that there be no audience. This telegraphs Biden’s frailty and uncertainty. CNN got in the first bid and so it will be put on in June in the CNN Atlanta studios. This guarantees a better bottom line for the network with much lower production costs, but how will their production values and biases be displayed?

Most Republicans believe CNN’s anchors and production staff are left-of-center or way-left-of-center, but I’ve worked with the CNN talent and production teams extensively in 2016 and again in 2023, and they have it within them to do a balanced debate if they let some air in the usually closed rooms. Dana Bash and Jake Tapper are professionals — I moderated four GOP debates with CNN in 2015-16, all with Dana and two with Jake — but there needs to be balance in the debate prep rooms and on stage and I don’t think there is even one pro-Life, pro-originalist person within the organization. There are many, many liberals. It will be very hard for CNN not to reflexively end up favoring Biden, and in a significant way, but especially in the question set.

Would you consider putting out a list of your national security team possibles – I mean, people like Ric Grenell and Robert O’Brien and Mike Pompeo and John Ratcliffe? I mean, they’re all going to be there somewhere. You don’t have to name where they’re going – Tom Cotton, Michael Waltz…

Trump’s counter for two more debates should be immediately accepted by Biden just as Trump accepted Biden’s challenge. Not to do so will show more weakness from Biden beyond the stringent conditions Team Biden laid out.

I also noted to Trump that because of the Alvin Bragg prosecution and a wildly partisan judge, Trump “can’t go out four days a week” to campaign.

He responded:

HH: No. (laughing) He doesn’t do any interviews. 

DJT: You think he’d, can you imagine him doing an interview like this?

HH: You think Joe Biden could…no. 

DJT: Can you imagine him doing an interview with you like this?

Trump and I spoke for 35 minutes about breaking news — the April inflation number was released just before he came on as well as the debate challenge — and he had no idea where I was going except that I would be bringing up Israel’s war in Gaza as I had in our last interview. All told, I asked him more than 30 questions or made statements eliciting a response in just over a half hour. It was fast-paced. He wasn’t fazed by anything. Can you imagine Joe Biden doing anything remotely like that?

Notice the ease with which President Trump changes direction, answers questions, makes his points and is ready to move on. Save for the interview with Howard Stern, President Biden hasn’t done a 35-minute interview with anyone in at least a year. He declined the softball Super Bowl interview. I believe his CNN interview was 14 minutes. His Yahoo interview Tuesday was much shorter. His speeches are a mess. The Teleprompter is Biden’s mortal enemy. He’s fixed a lie in his head — that inflation was 9% when he was sworn in, when it really was 1.4% — and repeats it endlessly. Every appearance brings a new faceplant.

Biden should agree to all four debates and would if he had a prayer of getting through them. And he should not tremble at the fear of them. If he does, what do you think Xi, Putin and Khamenei think of Biden!

Team Biden doesn’t want fair and balanced; it wants a big home field advantage and Biden’s campaign team is counting on CNN and another big broadcast network to shape the questions to fit the left’s narrative and not tax the president with hard questions.

The back drop to the movie, “White Men Can’t Jump”

Billy Hoyle is a former college basketball player who makes his living by hustling streetballers who assume he cannot play well because he is white.

BY now everyone knows who Caitlin Clark is. For the uninitiated she is the all time scorer in college basketball. Her time playing for Iowa Hawkeyes is legend. She was the number one draft pick going to the Indiana Fever. She filled stadiums like President Trump, people came to see her, she elevated the women’s game. The problem was her race, she was White. That was controversial to some, particularly a Black player.

Clark remarked concerning the trash talk from a Las Vegas Aces star A’ja Wilson, who recently told The Associated Press that she believes there is a race element tied into Clark’s popularity. 

“I think it’s a huge thing. I think a lot of people may say it’s not about Black and White, but to me, it is,” Wilson told the AP over the weekend.

The way we see it through our unbiased lens is what Americans as a whole sees it.  Mostly Whites attend basketball games, whites are in the majority, Blacks 13%.  If Whites choose to show their enthusiasm for one of their own, this is a great. Our Woman can play basketball too. 

GO CAITLAN! GO FEVER! YOUR HOT!

The conspicuous lickers of Biden’s ass need to take a lesson from Senator John Fetterman. But these simpletons have turned pussy, yes they turned pussy by selling Israel down the drain. Let us be clear, these guys with the Jewish persuasion, who impeached Trump, twice, stand by and watch their commander in chief withhold vital weapons for Israel’s fight with Hamas. Voters in their districts, many of them Jewish, will not forget their yellow streak. Hamas won’t stop with Israel, Europe is next, then the U.S. 

John Fetterman wants you to know he’s consistent – and not just about hoodies

In the months since the Israel-Hamas war began, the Pennsylvania Democrat has become one of his party’s most outspoken supporters of Israel and an island apart from his peers.

The junior Democratic senator from Pennsylvania still shows up to work each day in a Carhartt hoodie and gym shorts, peppers conversation with profanity and takes potshots at the “losers” and “sleazeballs” he feels need to be called out – and he won’t mince words when it comes to Israel.

“I said I dress like a slob, I dress like a slob,” he said. “I said I was going to stand with Israel, I stand with Israel. I said I’m going to be a reliable Democratic vote, and I’m still a reliable Democratic vote.”

And we never thought we would come to “Lock Her Up’s” defense but she came to Israel’s defense by countering Anti-Israel protesters.

Hillary Clinton: Anti-Israel protesters ‘don’t know very much’ about the Middle East

‘Propaganda is not education,’ says ex US secretary of state, slamming campus activists for ignorance of Palestinians’ rejection of husband Bill Clinton’s 2000 peace initiative.

Former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton slammed the pro-Palestinian and anti-Israel protest movement that has swept American colleges, saying in an interview Thursday that student activists were misinformed by propaganda on social media and in the classroom.

Under her husband, Clinton said, “an offer was made to the Palestinians for a state on 96% of the existing territory occupied by the Palestinians with 4% of Israel to be given to reach 100% of the amount of territory that was hoped for.”

Arafat’s rejection of that offer — attributed by Clinton to his fear of being assassinated like past peacemakers, Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and “our dear, dear friend,” Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin — was “one of the great tragedies of history,” said Clinton.

Hillary Clinton slammed by fellow Democrat for ‘dismissive’ remarks about anti-Israel protesters

REASON FOR CAMPUS PROTEST ARE TEACHERS

“IRON CLAD”, that was Biden’s description of our relationship with Israel. Well you can now flush that down the toilet. Another big fat lie coming our of Biden’s trap. However, Biden is not up against a paper tiger, he is up against Netanyahu, a man with a gun pointed to his head. Threats between ex-friends can lead to dangerous situations.

Israel has many relationships with our defense industry, the majority of which are critical to both countries survival. They jointly developed crucial systems with the newest technology. Breaking this relationship is not in the best interest of either. Perhaps this will force Israel to partner with one of our allies or an enemy of the U.S. At this point, the decision is Israel’s to make.

The long awaited decision to enter Rafah is close at hand. Netanyahu’s future lies on the defeat of Hamas. If he fails at this task, Israel will fail in the long run. The Jewish state can’t survive with terrorist at their borders. We have seen UNWRA being an arm of Hamas. Allowing Hamas to take over hospitals, schools, homes of private citizens and even UNWRA’s offices. The U.N. can say anything they want, but Israel has the final say on who protects them, not the U.S. or U.N. “NEVER AGAIN” is not to be taken lightly.

Thought we saw it all with the Green Agenda, but now Branden has gone over the top. His cognitive ability has deteriorated to such an extent that America questions his sanity. Remember how he shook down Ukraine, he has now doubled down on Israel. “Do what I say or America will not supply you with offensive armaments needed in your fight against Hamas.” This time though he is playing with fire.  The situation on the ground is at stage 5, the Red Line, Israel’s survival is at stake. Israel is not about to bow down to a two-bit dictator when it comes to their survival.

Biden has laid down the carpet for Hamas, once again proving how much he loves them, but in turn HATES AMERICA. If you can’t trust your friends who can you trust. 

What has transpired here is the pressure from the various Muslim cities in Michigan. If Biden loses this state, he will lose the election.

POTUS is kissing up to the Muslim scum that has run havoc from California to Connecticut. These radical trouble makers demand special treatment, they threaten state and local politicians, demanding their rights; keep in mind that the majority are not U.S. citizens. They have tailgated their way into the U.S, skipping over our open borders.

Biden now proposes those in Gaza who have been displaced to come to here, yes here and they will continue to f..k up our country like Hamas did to the Strip. The lunatic has gone berserk by even thinking of allowing these terrorists to come here. The only place deserving of them is six feet under.
