'Bad Faith' Lawfare Continues Against President Trump
[Julie Kelly] Alvin Bragg, Juan Merchan, Jack Smith, and Merrick Garland and others plan to work until the bitter end to undermine the "peaceful transfer of power" the Democrats love to talk about.Despite a decisive victory representing at least a partial repudiation of the lawfare against him, President-Elect Donald Trump is spending money and time before Inauguration Day to fight politically-motivated judges and prosecutors in three criminal cases against him—an outrageous affront to American voters who elected Trump by a wide margin in November. A New York appellate court judge just upheld Trump’s January 10 sentencing date set by Judge Juan Merchan in the business records case brought by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg in 2023. Merchan, a Democratic donor and father to the owner of a very lucrative Democratic consulting firm, is desperate to turn Trump into a convicted felon upon sentencing before he enters the White House. Trump’s attorneys filed an application before the Supreme Court on Wednesday seeking a stay to the proceedings: Justice Sonia Sotomayor gave Bragg and Merchan until Thursday morning to respond.
