    Reaction to Hunter Biden's Conviction vs. Trump's Conviction

    Reaction to Hunter Biden's Conviction vs. Trump's Conviction

    Last week, Donald Trump was convicted of 34 felony crimes that he committed to try to gain unfair advantage in a presidential election. Throughout the pre-trial proceedings and the trial itself, Trump and his lackeys in Congress endlessly yammered about the trial being a witch hunt. Trump threatened and endangered everyone who was involved in the endeavor of holding him accountable for his crimes: witnesses, jurors, prosecutors and judges.

    In stark contrast to Trump's reckless and dangerous behavior, the Hunter Biden case involved NO threats or intimidation of witnesses, jurors, prosecutors or judges, no cries of which hunt, no efforts to undermine the public's perception of the legitimacy of the criminal justice system.

    These differences tell you all you need to know about who respects the rule of law and who does not.

    Trump Meets with New York Probation Officer

    Trump Meets with New York Probation Officer

    Donald Trump sat for an interview with a New York probation officer who will prepare a pre-sentencing report to be used by Judge Juan Merchan in connection with Trump's sentencing.

    However, if we care about preserving free and fair American elections and deterring others from committing the crimes Trump committed - falsifying business records to gain unfair advantage in a presidential election - than Judge Merchan MUST sentence Trump to a period of incarceration rather than just probation. Glenn discusses the accepted principles of sentencing in our criminal just system and why a term of incarceration is necessary for Trump's crimes.

    Trump Vows Revenge Against His Enemies

    Trump Vows Revenge Against His Enemies

    The contrast between Donald Trump and President Joe Biden as far as the rule-of-law could not be more stark. As a HuffPost headline announces, "Trump Says Revenge 'Can Be Justified' In Latest Threat To Political Enemies." Contrary to Trump, President Biden has chosen the rule of law by declaring he will not pardon his son Hunter Biden in the event of a conviction, but rather, will accept and respect the jury's verdict. There is one important decision President Biden made early in his presidency: to leave in place a Republican, Trump-appointed US Attorney, David Weiss, who was conducting the investigation of his son Hunter. This shows the true measure of the man - President Biden did not want to be perceived as interfering with an ongoing investigation of his son, even though, as president, he had every right to nominate his preferred US Attorney for Delaware.

    Federal Judge Orders Steve Bannon to Report to Prison to Serve his Sentence

    Federal Judge Orders Steve Bannon to Report to Prison to Serve his Sentence

    Accountability has finally come for Steve Bannon for his two contempt of Congress convictions. A jury convicted Bannon nearly two years ago, but Trump-appointed Judge Carl Nichols allowed Bannon to remain free pending appeal, contrary to the presumption in the law that a sentence is to be served while a defendant appeals his or her conviction. After a federal appeals court rejected Bannon's appeal and affirmed this conviction, Judge Nichols reversed course and ordered Bannon to report to the Federal Bureau of Prisons by July 1, 2024, to begin serving his 4-month sentence.

    Reps Mike Johnson and Jim Jordan Have Decided Their Full-Time Job is to Obstruct Justice for Trump

    Reps Mike Johnson and Jim Jordan Have Decided Their Full-Time Job is to Obstruct Justice for Trump

    Representatives Mike Johnson and Jim Jordan are trying to convince the American people that the Department of Justice has been weaponized against Republicans. They ignore the reality that, at this very moment, the DOJ is prosecuting Senator Bob Menendez, a Democrat, they just indicted Rep. Henry Cuellar, a Democrat, and the feds are prosecuting Hunter Biden, son of a president who is a . . . Democrat. Glenn discusses how, in reality, Johnsons and Jordan are obstructing justice in an attempt to assist Donald Trump in evading accountability for his crimes.

    By Refusing to Take Responsibility for His Crimes, Donald Trump May Pave His Own Way to Prison

    By Refusing to Take Responsibility for His Crimes, Donald Trump May Pave His Own Way to Prison

    On July 11th, Judge Juan Merchan will sentence Donald Trump on his 34 felony convictions. Just as is true in all criminal sentencing hearings, Judge Merchan will base his sentence in part, on whether Trump will take responsibility for his crimes. Indeed, after a conviction, accepting responsibility for one's crimes is the first step on the road to rehabilitation. If a defendant refuses to accept responsibility for his crimes, that suggests that he is not amenable to rehabilitation, and it generally will result in a longer prison term.

    Will Trump accept responsibility for his crimes? When pigs fly.

    One of the accepted principles of sentencing is general deterrence - deterring others from committing the same or similar crimes that Trump committed, crimes designed to gain unfair advantage in a presidential election. If ever a prison term was necessary to deter others who would choose to replicate Trump crimes, it is in this New York case.
