Its not really a matter of legality. Its a matter of Constitutional authority. Clearly, the power to certify elections belongs to Congress and not the Executive branch. You could argue it was illegal if the order was executed but I expect that after discussion it was not.

The bad news is the PCE with adjusts GDP for inflation rose to 3.7% in Q124 which combined with a slowing GDP points to a stagflationary environment.

On this surface this young women's suggestion sounds ridiculous unless you apply it to the banking system and then realize that's more or less how it works. The banks along with the Fed "create" money for more or less "free" and charge the rest of us a fee in the form on interest to use it. Its quite a racket.

Its sounds like a great idea but there are real consequences to Americans rarely discussed or understood. Seizing and freezing foreign assets held at US commercial banks or the Fed have resulted in asset transfers out of US custody and into gold and other currencies held outside the US banking system. This will accelerate the process of replacing the current standard with another standard such as SDRs or a return to some form of gold backing. While people want to believe that military might is what keeps the US in control its actually the reserve and trade settlement status of the dollar that facilitates it all. Lose that and the consequences of borrowing and spending lots of money you don't have become immediate. No more passing $90B borrow and spend bills to feather the nests of defense contractors and suppliers. All this mostly plays into the hands of one country, China.

I think its important to view the "problem" with the MSM from the perspective of not only what they tell you, but also what they don't tell you. What might be characterized as lying by omission. Journalistic activism. Take the border chaos as an example. The MSM would lead you to believe this is purely an epics humanitarian crisis. And we're obligated to handle it in the manner its being handled. Its not a failure of the administration in Washington to control and secure our border. Or a failure to deal with the Mexican government's intransigence to do nothing. Or a failure to stem the tide of drugs and criminal cartel activity. Or a failure to show any concern for the safety and job efforts of border agent. Or a failure to address catch and release crime, stress on city and state budgets, impacts on citizens and business, the quality of life. All more or less secondary. Immigrants murdering Americans? No problem. Americans murder Americans too. The idea of closing the border and prohibiting anyone from entered in the current manner is inconceivable. Our Federal government is powerless here but they can force Americans to use correct pronouns and arrest people quietly praying in front of abortion centers. Because that makes somebody feel "unsafe" But letting 10 million illegals into the country making everyone feel unsafe? Not a problem. Secure our borders, not so much a concern. And every complaint or criticism of the administrations handling of the crisis is met with "but Republicans rejected a bi-partisan "solution" to the border crisis". No mention the terms of the bill were unacceptable. Its like Biden's team is writing the news and these puppets are reading the teleprompter. The MSM news has become a politicized version of a specific political parties view of reality and is no longer an objective, factual source of truth.

The MSM has a significant and obvious liberal bias. With the exception of Fox News. The score is something like 10 to 1 liberal bias but the left pretends its a tie game. What I still can't wrap my head around is how did current day liberals transform from traditional liberal beliefs, cynics, and critics of big government to lovers of it?

They're worried that revealing their identity will disqualify them from student debt relief and a cherry Summer internship at a NYC Jewish law firm. Death to America but before we kill you please pay off our loans first!

From all the derogatory comments and opinions I hear in my travels around the State I'm wondering if Biden is even going to win New Jersey. The consensus is life under Biden sucks and under Trump it wasn't so bad.

The difference here is the democrats are a lot smarter and better at doing this stuff than the republicans and Trump. The democrats utilize low-level operatives and the media along current and former bureaucrats embedded in the government to do the dirty work while keeping Biden and other top Democrats at an "arms length" away for the action in order to provide them all with plausible deniability. Meanwhile, Trump is a very slow learner and hasn't figured out that game yet and still participates directly in these activities.

The Clinton campaign did more than violate election law. They created an entirely false narrative to lie and deceive the American public on an epic and historical scale. But as for this problem, falsifying business records? People charged with falsifying business records perform the act of falsifying business records in order to obscure, misrepresent, or hide a previously performed criminal act. Like embezzlement. Is anyone suggesting the source of funds Trump used was illegally gained? Otherwise, the source of funds being legal there was no criminal act leading up to the payment. The payment itself was legal. Lying and calling it "legal expenses" was a lie but is lying illegal here. That's the point of contention. And that point is trivial and not worthy of legal action by the State. But the State believes its a standalone "crime" and charge to make a legal payment and classify the payment on your internal accounting records as something else. Entering into a NDA is not a crime. Neither is making a payment to another party. Neither is legally transferring monies to your lawyers escrow account. Neither is the lawyer using the funds to make a payment to another party.

Sure, but she perpetrated a hoax that influenced the election and inhibited the functioning of the Trump administration for the entire 4 year term while creating a lasting false narrative the faithful still believe to this day. And she continues to lie about it. So it's okay to lie and fabricate disinformation on the opposition candidate as long as the campaign pays for it? As for Trump I could argue no harm, no foul. So the payment was classified "legal expenses". So what? What harm or damage did the State of New York incur? Nothing. Or anyone else? Nothing. The money was not used or derived from any criminal activity or enterprise. There was no crime or illegal act before or after the payment. The payment itself was not illegal or was the NDA. No taxes or payments to any government or private individual were missed or mis-calculated. There was no victim, period. So the charge is a violation of the law that caused no harm to anyone. That seems utterly foolish. But representative of the times we live in today where critical and logical thinking is optional. Even if there is a conviction which is likely given the stacked jury, an appeals court will most certainly reject the States argument and dismiss the case. But the goal would have already been achieved. Not to send Trump to prison but to tie him up in court and keep him off the campaign trail for as long as possible to give that feeble old fool enough slack to maybe pull off a re-election bid. A diabolical but effective plan.

OK. but fair is fair. I need to point out, Clinton's campaign laundered payments to Steele for the Russian dossier through her Perkin Coi law firm booked incorrectly as "legal fees" and then to FusionGPS. Fabricating the biggest election interference hoax of all time. Still claims its all true today. And got away with it with just a nominal fine. Why isn't NYS pursuing charges against Hillary, the campaign, and law firm? Because she's a Democrat and the powers aren't out for her scalp. Given the Trump transgression is less impactful I think my question is appropriate. Also, I wonder how others disguise NDA payments they wish to keep secret?

Thanks for doing the heavy lifting here. According to the stores: Norman was found guilty of soliciting illegal campaign contributions. Brega pleaded guilty to illegally donating to a political campaign by funneling cash through a family member. Luthmann was guilty of creating several Facebook pages in candidates’ names to try to influence political races making it appear those sites were legitimately associated with the candidates. Date plead guilty to embezzlement of party funds. Trump concealed a privately funded payment to another person in exchange for signing an NDA. No campaign or public funds were stolen or misappropriated as is the case in the above examples and as such none of them are equivalent to the Trump charges. What he did was fail to publicly disclose an NDA payment. Is there any legal requirement to do so? Election or not? And if there is a legal requirement to disclose an NDA then why have one in the first place? It renders the idea moot. As for falsifying business records, is the State of New York suggesting there is a proper way of accounting for and a correct GAAP sub-ledger account for secret NDA payments rather than how it was accounted for on his "business records"?

As democrats protecting these pedo groups and other perverts and weirdos where are Joe Biden and Garland's DOJ? Respectively, sniffing the hair of young girls and ignoring his responsibilities as AG. Your cult simply does not have the moral high ground.

Well, if anyone has been convicted of violations of Sarbanes-Oxley applied to election law violations pertaining to NDA's and disclosure requirements including the timing of those disclosures where no campaign funds, either private donations or public funds, were involved I have no problem admitting I'm wrong but would appreciate an example.

Once the lights go out I suspect these "students" sneak off to their dorm rooms for a good night's sleep and a hot shower in the morning to prep for a long day of protesting against the system that facilitates their privilege of attending an $80K/year university.

You've got to know any conviction based on this flimsy interpretation and application of an SEC reporting law morphed into an election law violation is going to get overruled on an appeal. The court will rule the law as applied to the circumstances is inappropriate. The prosecutors know this too but the conviction is not the goal. And they're the real culprits here interfering with the 2020 election. By maliciously and intentionally keeping a candidate in court and off the campaign trail in order to support a failing and ineffective President in winning a second term.

These pronoun puffers need to understand that most people simply refuse to encourage and condone the mental illnesses and fantasies of others. Men thst "believe" they're a women are mentally ill and should be getting therapy not bathroom privileges.

The inmates are truly in charge of the asylum. How can a candidate interfere with an election where they're a candidate of a major political party running an active campaign?

Like the liberals tell these girls/women competing in sports. Its a man's world and fighting the patriarchy is futile. All this irrational identity stuff makes me wonder why a dude wants to pretend to be a lady? Your short a couple cards from a full desk. I get you can physically dominate women athletes and feel like you're the top dog at something. But have you seen the restroom lines at concerts and sporting events for the ladies room? Who would want to stand in line for 30 minutes just to pretend your a big, hairy, ugly women? Its not like you're fooling anybody but yourself.

The context is Biden sucks and you can't name a single thing the old douche's administration has done right. Every day people just hate this guy. Even here in blue New Jersey.

There are many ways to win. And lose. The 49er for example, had 4 Pro Bowl/All Pro level offensive weapons and a competent QB last year and yet still lost a close Super Bowl to a Chiefs team that just played a little bit better at the end of the game when it counted. So the Bills getting WR1 in the draft might improve the offense but is adding that player to the roster going to make the difference or is there another reason they can't get past the divisional round the last 2 years?

First off, anyone that understands context. Secondly, voters that comprehend the alternative of 4 more years of this huge dumpster fire will destroy our country and culture. More inflation and a worthless dollar. Gas at $6, rent at $3k month, $15 cheeseburger.

But the American flag makes them uncomfortable and they don't feel "safe". Tibs- now the fact we put up with their crap and watch the cops do nothing and the politicians are wimps? Now that is what's called comedy.

It was a time when sports was sports and not so much glitz and glamor entertainment. Guys just showed up and played. No celebrations about a 1st quarter interception. No music blaring and fireworks. No 60,000 people in the stands staring at their cell phones checking their fantasy league stats. Now the SB halftime show and commercials seem just as big a deal as the game itself.
