Falsifying business records is a crime; one that has been prosecuted many times in New York.

If that was true, would Trump himself not cry "statute of limitations?" Instead he said he'll be arrested on Tuesday.

As I said above, it's a bit early to decide what the legal merits of the expected hush money case are, since no one has yet seen the case (if one is brought) or the evidence on which it is based. That said, plenty of people are talking about the expected case. One of them is attorney Ryan...

A Fake Tweet That Communicates a Real Truth

An Interesting Item I don't know that it matters much in the greater scheme of things but it's interesting to note that Trump announced the upcoming arrest he expects to come. That news was not broken by the DA, it was made by Trump. The same held true with the Mar-a-Lago search. The DOJ did...

The critics may have valid points about the Manhattan DA and the indictment and case he is expected to produce. But the comments are a bit premature, are they not? NO ONE outside the grand jury and the DA's office has seen the evidence. No one actually knows what will be filed until it is...

What incentives are you talking about? In what way are the workers I mentioned above (restaurant workers, home health care, lawn care, factory laborers, etc.) incentivized to not do those jobs?

It's not like the four grand juries are working as a team. Assuming we'll see indictments from all four, one of them has to be first. I see nothing significant about which one of the four that would be.

If a house burns down and I show a picture of it before the fire, that's a much different view too. But the truth is, both photos are accurate. The house once stood and the house now does not. The picture you show and story you tell does not change the truth. When the full story is told, the...

I read the text as you requested. My comments are below. Strictly speaking, you are correct when you say, The legislation simply DOES NOT "criminalize any contact with undocumented people". On the other hand, it criminalizes a lot of what a lot of Floridians now do. See below. 444 ... If...

Correct. I agree. Some in the media are reading a lot into that simple, single word. They're recalling the Jan 6 insurrection and drawing parallels with the crowd Trump drew on that day, and the subsequent events at the Capitol. In their minds, they're manufacturing some sort of imaginary New...

To Perp Walk or Not? There is a standard procedure, shared below, defendants go through in Manhattan. They include the "perp walk." Trump and some of his supporters have said an indictment would help Trump because the public would be outraged and his candidacy would consequently grow stronger...

It's wise to note that, so far, the only information we have about a Trump arrest on Tuesday comes from Trump himself. No law enforcement official, and no Trump attorney has confirmed Trump's expectation. When I first read Trump's statement, I assumed (perhaps incorrectly) that arrangements had...

Trump Expects to be Arrested Tuesday (Source) Millions of Americans have been frustrated by Trump's lifelong ability to avoid meaningful accountability for the many misdeeds they believe he has done. Many have wanted him to be arrested and charged with crimes for a long, long time. It now...

I guess the "unhinged" includes Trump himself. This came out today: "Former President Donald Trump said he expects to be arrested Tuesday in connection with an investigation conducted by the Manhattan District Attorney's office and is calling for protests ahead of his possible indictment."...

I did not believe this report when I first saw it. But checking more, it's true. There is indeed a Florida Senate Bill 1718 that will do as the headline you posted says if it is passed into law; namely, "Criminalize any Contact With Undocumented People). I found it initially unbelievable...

Your legal opinion is noted. A number of commentators are expecting to see an indictment next week. If it comes, you may wish to reconsider your opinion.

New Detail: If Trump is Indicted ... He Will Surrender https://news.yahoo.com/trump-won-t-refuse-surrender-222400349.html

If Trump is Indicted ... Until I saw this piece, which describes the process, I have not thought about what it would actually look like if Trump is indicted by the Manhattan grand jury. "If an indictment is filed against Trump, the most likely scenario is that he would show up voluntarily for...
