The charges centered on a $130,000 payment to adult film performer Stormy Daniels
A New York appeals court will be asked on Thursday to throw out Donald Trump’s conviction on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records. The case made history in May 2024, when the verdict turned Trump into the first former, and now current, US president with a criminal conviction. The historic ruling did not stop him from returning to the White House, and it brought no punishment.
The charges centered on a $130,000 payment to adult film performer Stormy Daniels, made to obscure the money’s true purpose.
Trump denies any wrongdoing, and has turned to state and federal courts in hopes of unwinding the verdict. He is not expected to attend Thursday’s court session. The appeal turns on complex legal disputes, but the political overtones are hard to miss.
Your Teflon is wearing off, rapey mc raperson. All in due time
It’s a really apt nickname because Teflon wears out after only a few short years and can’t be fixed, only thrown away to forever plague and poison every human in the future.
It can be incinerated.
I hope Jack Smith is ready to go.
God I would pay SUCH good money to see him give Ol’ Dumpy a thorough cross-examination. The man prosecuted war criminals, he’d mop the floor with his greasy ass
Same. I would so love to see that.
