DA Bragg agrees to Trump sentencing delay

Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg has agreed to delay President Trump's sentencing. CBS is reporting that "Prosecutors for Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg said they are not opposed to delaying Donald Trump's sentencing for his criminal conviction in the wake of the Supreme Court's ruling that former presidents enjoy broad immunity for official acts." According to Fox News Legl Analyst and FNC Contributor Leo Terrell, this is a direct result of yesterday's SCOTUS ruling.

According to Terrell, the SCOTUS ruling on immunity doesn't just affect federal cases. It affects any case involving the president. Terrell said that this is a good sign for Trump. After the ruling yesterday, Trump's team said that they'd be appealing Trump's conviction.

CNN is reporting that "Donald Trump will not be sentenced on his business fraud conviction until September, a New York judge ruled Tuesday in the wake of Monday’s Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity." First, that means Trump can campaign the rest of the summer with the exception of the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee in 2 weeks. Next, it means that Trump can put more states in play until the next debate, if Biden still wants another bloodbath. Third, this essentially proves that Biden's lawfare project failed.

WORTH NOTING:Tucked into the CNN/Judge Merchan article:

Trump was scheduled to be sentenced on July 11. Judge Juan Merchan said the former president will now be sentenced on September 18, "if such is still necessary."
Let's hope that the sentencing hearing won't be necessary for multiple reasons. Most importantly, let's hope it isn't needed because the Biden/Bragg/Merchan lawfare stunt has blown up in their faces. This NYPost- produced video explains why it might not be needed:

Truer words were never spoken:
The decision has thrown special counsel Jack Smith’s indictment of Trump on election subversion charges into doubt – and a trial before the November election is all but impossible now. The ruling could impact the indictments of Trump in the classified documents and Georgia election interference cases as well.
If all these things fall into place, it'll mean that Jack Smith will have failed again. At some point, Smith should stop attempting to convict high-profile defendants on novel theories. Further, it'll mean that Joe Biden's lawfare project will have failed utterly.

Tim Walz's Confederate Flag Fiasco

Image
After Minnesota's Democrats shoved the most controversial progressive legislation down Minnesotans' throats, gossip started popping up about Gov. Walz being interested in running for president . That's died off but Gov. Walz is still making headlines, this time for all the wrong reasons. First, Gov. Walz isn't the brightest bulb in the chandelier. Still, Gov. Walz is fighting against Minnesota's history. This Alpha News article quotes David Hann, the chairman of Minnesota's Republican Party, as saying " The flag the DFL has eliminated was a version of the historic flag our regiments fought under during the Civil War. Minnesota was the first state to offer troops to the Union cause in 1861 , beginning a long tradition of leading the nation in confronting injustice. The DFL quest to erase our history is repugnant and should be rejected." Gov. Walz, though, sees things differently. He's quoted as saying "Minnesota is a diverse state, it continue

Blistering Barack's butt (bigtime)

Image
This past weekend, Barack Obama tried spreading the blame around for Hamas's murderous rampage of Oct. 7. This blistering op-ed hints that Mr. Obama isn't the effective communicator that he once was. Obama initially insisted that "nobody's hands are clean" from the Oct. 7 Massacre. Liel Leibovitz, the Editor at large of Tablet Magazine wrote this op-ed questioning Obama's intellectual honesty. After Obama said that nobody's hands are clean, Mr. Liebovitz wrote wrote "Nah, man. Not all of us are complicit. It's just you. It's you, because you're the one who gave that stentorian speech about red lines in Syria and then sat by and did nothing as those red lines were crossed and Assad continued to slaughter his own people, allowing the Iranians and the Russians to creep in and fill the vacuum left by your devastating lack of leadership." In short, Mr. Liebovitz isn't buying what Mr. Obama is peddling. Let's question Mr. Obama a

Why is Joe Biden letting Hamas off the hook?

Image
It isn't disputable whether Joe Biden's administration is letting Hamas off the hook. That issue was settled months ago, when a spineless Joe Biden caved to activists interested in saving Hamas and thwarting the Israelis' attempt to defend themselves. Gerard Baker's op-ed highlights what's at stake for the U.S. if the terrorists are permitted to survive. In his op-ed, Baker wrote "If, under the pressure of internal Democratic politics and global public opinion, the Biden administration forces a 'cease-fire' that leaves our closest ally in the region short of victory over an enemy that seeks to destroy it, sooner or later we shall all pay the price." It's time to revisit George W. Bush's speech to a joint session of Congress on Sept. 20, 2001. It's required that we remind ourselves of one of its most important paragraphs. In talking about who committed the atrocities of 9/11, President Bush identified al-Qa'ida as "a collectio
