In America, it is better to be GUILTY and RICH than POOR and INNOCENT!
Sad but true.
That all depends on where you want to spend eternity. Don't get me wrong I had my time in the sunshine but I grew up. (Long before it cost somebody their life. ((Or that I was responsible for it rather.)) )
Definitely safer. Police send you a polite message, and it seems to take years to get them in a courtroom.
@@KtotheL I have no idea what this means.
REAL TALK, THEY HAVE TAUGHT POOR PEOPLE TO PRAY FOR JUSTICE. SO SAD
Yet, they expect the people to face judges and accept consequence all the while watching the rich people and politicians in this country be held to a different standard? The system in this country is a joke.
They still have nothing on trump 😂
@@bidenisgarbage9428 Okay, Karen. Prove to me that they don't.
@@Madbandit77 LMAO he would’ve been in the slammer a long time ago, just let this obsession go already 😆
did she accept the money? if so shes a criminal as well.
@@bidenisgarbage9428 textbook Trumper. Zero substance whatsoever. Not an ounce of intelligence or knowledge to counter any of the endless claims of fraud. There’s a reason MAGA thrives in the least educated, most ignorant, most bigoted counties in America. You fit right in.
Not prosecuting with such overwhelming evidence is a crime in itself.
Fully agree
Bragg should be nailed.
There is none 😂
Bragg needed to grow a pair...first. Watch James and Willis already had theirs.
There is no evidence to prosecute Trump because he hasn’t committed a crime
The bankers are complicit for not investigating the assets. Shame on them!
Absolutely, but the real issue deals with what's called Bogus Derivatives. THAT is the root of the entire bank problem. It's all about loaning money that doesn't exist, especially to foreign borrowers. How can they continue to loan trillions upon trillions of dollars with nothing to back it up? That is the real crime.
They know they will be bailed out, so why not cut corners and take risks?
It’s not the government’s business who lends money to who .
Money is the answer
What was the question ?
As a NYS real estate appraiser it's hard to understand how Trump's banks' appraisers got away with such fraud in such a heavily regulated industry.
This case makes it crystal clear that there are two sets of laws, one for the rich and famous and one for the rest of us.
It's true!
There is one law only ,,the one for the poor ,,,,there is no law against the rich whatsoever ,department of justice for the poor ,,,, devoid of justice for the rich wich doj are you
You should've known that by age 18.
What took you so long?
It only changes when WE take OUR government back...instead of allowing senile, basically-braindead guys to hold the office. 🤡
😂😂 leave trump alone already
@@bidenisgarbage9428 not a f ing chance
Can you imagine being as experienced and respected as Pomerantz and having to answer to a hack like Bragg? Huge props to Mark Pomerantz!
Exactly...and Scumbragg answers to no one
@@anony-ic3pz Alvin Bragg would make the nastiest bosses of Tammany Hall blush. Why do NYers keep electing crooks?
@@kevinmoore4237 Yes! Corruption and abuse of power seems to be the NY mainstay
Bragg is a big fat scary coward that ran on a lie. Tish James has no fear, her game is tight with following the $$$ and she meant every word she said about going after the rich and powerful who commit crimes.
@@anony-ic3pz So not true! District attorneys/states attorney generals/governors/members of Congress/presidents of the states are all elected by voters in their particular constituencies!
So you may want to rethink your answer here or else, risk, looking like someone who is lacking in knowledge of how the system works.
everybody knows he's guilty ...
but nobody seems to want to prosecute ...
why is that?
🤔
Because they have nothing 😂
$: that’s why
If that orange clown buried his ex wife in his golf course to pay less taxes then you can expect anything from such clown.
Same with china joe
Do you mean brandon
It's crazy people watch TikTok for news when 60 Minutes is out here producing the best quality journalism.
TikTok - like all Social Media - FAKE NEWS - You mean.
🤣🤣🤣 They are liberal hacks!
They are swamp purchased, or they wouldn’t be on.
You can’t see the leading questions? Real journalists don’t do that they just report and let the person speak.
@@slackdaddy1912 How delusional.
"I just need you to find 11 billion, 780 million dollars. Give me a break."
I just need $11,780 rent monies.
Trump's non-indictment status is going to demolish the credibility of our justice system if it is allowed to continue much longer.
Seriously, why would any other "business person" not commit the same crimes and say hey trump did it and nothing happened so why can't I?
As long as they prosecute Hillary, Joe Biden and Hunter too, I’m all for it. But I’m guessing they’re “innocent” right?
@@Bigsexymccorkle yea, prosecute them for what? Your comment is foolish at best.
Just like the justice system letting hunter biden go right or Biden on his declassification of secret documents as vp which doesn’t have the power to do that or the people on the list that went to Epstein island what credibility is there to our justice system in the first place talk about being out of touch with reality
@@raygunreagan2274 you dont know the facts about anything.
9:16 this is straight up tax evasion. Capone went to jail for less.
Money buys anyone and everyone.
Yep
It is. Let's hope the IRS doesn't look the other way.
Correct, we do not have a functioning justice system for the wealthy and they know it. If I were trump, I would steal even more!
Alvin Brag is another prosecutor afraid of pressing charges. It’s awful.
I think the recent win in the Trump Org case (guilty of 17 felonies) has made it impossible to ignore, even for Bragg.
@@B_Bodziak Seems like this book had an influence too.
Apparently he's not.
He won a recent case against orange Jesus for tax fraud.
Bragg needed to take his time and prosecute based upon his findings, not findings of those investigating this orange thing prior to Mr Braggs administration
He wasn't afraid, he needed to have more facts & info. He can't just rely on Cohen, who hates trump & who never shuts up ... Now, Tuesday, trump will be arrested & arraigned
Liar

One more thing, dear Ryan H. Those are not lies. Those were promised he made that he truly wanted to keep and would have met had the PLANdemic not have occured. You woke folks can't differentiate between what a lie is and an opinion/promise. A lie is someone saying something deceitful/no intention of doing.
The idiocy of the woke is abundant on this thread.
@@susandanner496 What gaslighting? All those things he mentioned are facts.
@@susandanner496 here's some facts not empty promises dear,
from 2015-2020 he claimed -46,000,000. Negative 46 MILLION (per his tax returns)!
Paid ZERO taxes in 2020, and paid 750 dollars for 2016 and 2017. He's not successful, he's not rich, HE'S NOT A BILLIONAIRE, he ran off that and the maggots fell for it. He's a crook.. The wall never got done and bannons going to jail for taking the wall money. No wonder he needs your 99 dollars for a crappy nft. Received 20 million dollars from that p.o.s. Kim jun. What does the world's cruelest dictator get for 20 million dollars? Top secret documents that were missing from their sleeves at the beach club that was infiltrated by a 24 year old russian woman claiming she was a rothchild? Nuclear codes? Received another 19 million from china. Paid 200,000 dollars in taxes to China, China, China! while paying zero in taxes to the U.S. AS PRESIDENT! (2020) And that same year received a 5 million dollar tax return courtesy of the American taxpayer. Raised the debt by nearly 8 trillion (2 trillion to the top 1%), and spent 305 days golfing during his presidency at the cost of 141,000,000 million dollars on the taxpayers dime. Why didn't he get audited like every other president from the 70's? He hand picked the director of the IRS. And lets not forget that cherry on top, he called for the termination of the constitution to be installed autocrat leader of the u.s.a. 45 is a joke and so are his voters/cult members!
You poor fascist (probably racist)
Stay stupid af!
@@susandanner496Won’t happen. Make Susan Sane Again 2023
The reason it’s against the law is because if someone defaults then the bank depends on foreclosing and if the property isn’t worth what’s declared, the bank gets stuck. We are a Country of laws and if we don’t follow them in certain situations then society begins to fall apart.
It also cheats the bank out of charging and receiving a higher interest rate. This affects all people with dealings at those banks.

You Rock Mark Pomerantz! We need More People like You & Carey Dunn. Thank you Both for your Service.
Hello Morgan
how are you doing today?
Mark Pomerantz soon goes to Congress to tell the truth from his book if he says differently he will get perjury.
Mark Pomerantz is one of a few good men that had work in government
Hunter Biden was paying 50,000 dollars a month for rent at his dad's home which rent should be only 3000 dollars a month, any body going to do anything about it probably not
Thank you for displaying integrity.Keep the facts coming.The voters are depending on the facts .
Pomerantz comes across as solid.
A solid suckass
Imagine how frustrated he had to be in order to write, not a memo, not an essay, but an entire friggin book about that tool, Bragg!
Sure does. Just like the solid my dog left on the driveway. I wasn't very happy. 💩
Never let traitors go unpunished. Go get Benedict Donald - Turncoat Trump. Enough investigations. Indict, indict, indict. Let them have their day in court and let lady justice decide.
Brainwashed
🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
@@lovejuananother8064 Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Even Trump KNOWS he'll be indicted... It's literally happening now. Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha
@@lovejuananother8064 that's because he always settles in court lmao ...he's lost more money than any American in history
@@lovejuananother8064 the cute part is that you think you have some special lens into reality. You don’t. You’re so unaware of how little you know that it would take teams of philosophers and doctors to maybe get you back into coherence.
If Bragg wanted more investigation done, he could have communicated that to Pomerantz, easy enough; instead he (Bragg) stated he would not bring charges. Bragg was and is being political.
Or compromised. I would not be surprised if someone paid him off, threatened him or his family and/or had dirt on him. I wish the NYT would investigate him, I can almost guarantee he is dirty AF. No credible prosecutor would behave this way, ESPECIALLY on that ran on holding the powerful to account. Something is not right.
I'd be looking at his donors
When you say political it is perhaps Bragg's conviction rate he is more concerned about. I think we see this often in the American justice system where prosecutors under-prosecute or flatly refuse to because they are more concerned with their reputations and how that might affect their legacy and/or future employment. They determine risking a loss for the sake of justice for victims is not in their best interest.
The victims in this case are the people that follow the rules and miss out on financial opportunities.
I think Bragg was a paid hit job to tank the investigation. Someone should check his investments!!!
Bragg should then be indicted for obstruction.
To be terrified of making mistakes, is the biggest mistake you can make.
It's amazing how much the world can be effected by the simple act of a sperm fertilizing an egg.
And still no indictments? Where are the charges??
Did you watch the video?
It's a rig shitshow from the beginning you people will do anything to get Donald Trump even when there's nothing to get him on
@@billpardew2375 Derp de derrrrrr. We don't need so stinkin' facts, eh Billy?
BTW, thanks for posting this. You are the first person I will think of now when that first indictment drops, and his first conviction is read by a jury.
BTW, his corporation has been found guilty of multiple counts of tax fraud, and your orange jesus signed off on all of it. 😁
That's why they all quit. The investigation had him red handed and his boss wouldn't let them press charges. Hopefully his boss gets in big trouble, but we all know that won't happen. Our country is straight up corrupt. But only for rich people.
They have nothing on trump let it go already 😂
So this is a classic case of: "We have all of the evidence, but there are just too many reasons, too many circumstances, too many "nuances" and too many "complexities" to actually bring charges." For those who are saying: "They have nothing..." , well, strictly speaking, that's correct. You have nothing if you do nothing with the evidence. What's the point if you do not bring charges? Let's see what Bragg does, if anything, this time.
Bragg will not do anything and end up falling through the cracks.
Glad he's speaking up...now we need someone with a spine and actions!LOCK HIM UP!🙌🏾🇺🇲
The fact the Orange Menace has never been indicted shows that everyone capable of doing so has a price. Much respect to Mr. Pomerantz for standing up for the rule of law.

@@CoachAshley1983 unfortunately, they do enjoy it 🫠
Why did you not interview one Banker and asked why they approved trump inflated properties’ values without using their own evaluation? In my opinion, Banks are responsible for confirming Trump's property values before issuing loans. My Bank will only loan me 80% based on the value of the Bank’s evaluation and not my evaluation.
Exactly. Because Pomerantz is a biased hack.
Do you have accountants and lawyers presenting your evaluation?
@@MultisportOfficial he wouldn’t need them. You get to state what you think the value is. No bank is dumb enough to take it at face value, they always do their own evaluation. And if they agree with you, then there’s obviously no crime here. Total biased hack job.
LMAO cry harder
Simply presenting those fake accounts themselves is a crime. The bank doesn't need to do anything
Yep. There's the justice system for the 90%.. and the Just-Us_System for the 10%.
Yup, totally agree with you. I don’t know why they’re not investigating Joe and Hunter Biden.
Except the ten percent get away with anything they want
@@robertnichols2315 , yup. Look at Smelly Joe. Selling secrets to the Chinese. SMDH.
Let this obsession go already 😂
@@bidenisgarbage9428 Alright then. How about obsessing with balkanizing this kindergarden country. Some countries will live under a democratic- republic and the other countries can live under a fascist dictstorship.
Never before in the history of this country has a politician been so guilty of so many crimes and yet the Guy from Mag-A-Lardo is allowed to be free to continue to commit more crimes.
There are many others that committed crimes as bad as President Trump, but they continue to be active in the government. President Trump was in power four years, but many others have been there decades, SO what about them? Just wondering about the American justice.
No problem. Let's tax him based on his own valuation!
But that is other crime he committed and what Leticia James is charging him on civilly. He would inflate his assets for loans by a factor of more than 10, then devalue them in the same tax year by another factor of 10 from their actual value for tax purposes. It's a tax avoidance fraud.
He just writes it off as business expenses..Now There's an Applecart that needs turning over..
Mr. Pomerantz has my respect. Doubling down on his facts, research, knowledge. Bravo sir. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Why should any of us obey the courts?!
The Declaration of Independence LITERALLY says 3 times that ALL JUDGES ARE INHERENTLY CROOKED. (!!) and Kops are murderous rapist THUGS of the empire!

You can say that about any politician so what's your point
@@charlesperkinsjr2 The point was that politicians are government employees, civilians are not. Hence the getting away with it part. 👍🏽✨✨Also consider his family tycoon name.
Thieves gonna steal as long as they can get away with it.
The joint venture division of a major bank I was directing in the late 80’s received Trump “financials “ as part of a request for bridge financing. It was laughable and our guys dismissed it in a day. Later, I would hear that he’d found a source and wondered. Then we heard it was DutrscheBank, and we understood.
I was a bank examiner in the 80s and 90s and reviewed some of the loans made to him that were shared by various financial institutions. He was considered "shady" then so I was among the people who couldn't believe that he was running for president much less that he'd be elected 🤔
That bank was laundering money for the Russians, and the Russians wanted Trump on the hook to them.
When he said, I didn't have to brag, you know he wants to brag, if Trump says one thing, he probably did the other!
Apparently we do not even have a Department of Justice. Where is it?
Well still there, but it's been nuetered
I wish I could say I'm shocked by this, but the truth is I'm not. I'm only shocked that no one has had the balls to convict this lying PAB on his crimes as of yet. This isn't justice. It's just disgusting. If this were any other person, they would be sitting in prison by now.
I'm just here for the comments from the Scientologists. I'm sorry, did I say Scientologists? I meant to say Trump supporters. It's hard to tell cults apart these days.

I gotta say DEMS are as dumb as REPUGS are, in almost all categories.

Not rich or poor, brown or white, gay or straight.
HUMANS are the problem.
Section 3, 14th Amendment disallows Trump from seeking office, yet here he is running for president. Dumbfounding.
I know what you are saying....but the guy has to be convicted first...then the Section 3, 14th Amendment will kick in...I might be wrong on this.
LMAO delete your comment please 🤦🏻♂️😆 what a dunce you are
@@daveenyart I understand that but it's obvious the justice department has no intention of bringing charges. They have had more than enough evidence to convict for over a year. The political class is simply immune from prosecution. Started with Nixon and here we are. "Justice" is the biggest oxymoron in the nation. It was intended as a pillar.
@@bidenisgarbage9428 Trump, though uncharged, led a seditious conspiracy to overthrow the legal election. The facts speak for themselves. You know it and I know it, so spare me the cackling icon.
@@bidenisgarbage9428 I get weary of folks who comment/claim something but are unwilling or unable to back it up....that's all.
"His wealth is built on Lies"
"I don't have to brag", says the man who brags constantly about his perfect genius mind, his perfect health, his perfect phone calls, his perfect speeches, etc.
Never trust a former president who wears Jim Bakker’s haircut and Tammy Faye’s makeup.
& so Bragg lied when he gave his "justice for all" type comments that it doesn't matter if you're rich or famous. It obviously does matter to Bragg.
We need more people like Pomerantz, but they need to also have the power to make managerial decisions to go forward in cases like this.
Sounds like Bragg will eventually let trump get away scott free - again!
Even better, Pomerantz came out of retirement, his own decision based on his selfless duty and the circumstances. Bragg was an an elected official, anyone see a difference here?

I am an alum of the Manhattan DA’s Office, under Robert Morgenthau. I am in complete accord with the decision by Pomerantz and Dunne to resign in protest of DA Bragg’s decision not to pursue the case they had developed. Bragg is a coward, and, hopefully, a one-term DA. However, I am disgusted by Pomerantz’s decision to publish a book about it. A breach of trust. A breach of morals. I will never pay a nickel to read that book.
Chance of seating an unbiased jury is slim to none
@@shielanunn3484 DC jury? Trump? GUILTY!
I heard Morgenthau is/was sexist and did not promote female AD or DA and then he chose Vance who interrupted investigations of children’s of Trump b/c Vance received election money,,,, people with money, power, 99% can get away from wrongdoing, corruption,,that sadly we see and ordinal people always get punishment,,,in this world
@@rookedog9688 For MANY years, Mr Morgenthau’s First Asst Dist Atty was a woman, Jessica DiGrazzia (sp?) - the chief of the office, like the chief of staff. The Bureau Chief’s were women, often, and the senior assistants were split 50/50 - the entire office was without a doubt gender-neutral. Wherever you got your info on that, they are wrong. Cy was not in the office as Mr Morgenthau was approaching retirement. At that time, Dan Castleman was the First Asst DA - a more intelligent, capable, brilliant and dogged prosecutor the office did not have. However, Cy chose to contest the seat and the political powers chose him. I disagreed with the choice, but so be it - that’s why we call it a democracy. As for Cy’s choosing not to charge the Trump thieves, er, children: I disagreed with that, but he was not my boss, just a colleague from the old days, and I do not know all the inside scoop on why he chose as he did.

Im an old woman. Due to those years, Im a pretty good judge of people. Mark Pomerantz is the righteous man is this situation. I can tell he is honest to the very core of his being. I dont have those same thoughts about the other person involves. I think Ms James is also on the right side of honesty.
Remember the 2016 debate with Hilary he admitted to tax fraud on nation tv? He said “because I’m smart” 😂😂😂
No one should be "above the law"- (or, we don't really have a fair legal system).
What’s sad is that none of this is surprising…
Biden Rules... Thank you Mr. president!!!
It’s also illegal for prosecutors to lie. Don’t google how many times they are caught and punished, because it almost never happens. Prosecutors in America have way to much unfettered freedom to do as they please. The amount of wrongful convictions in America should shock one’s conscience.
STRESS- 2023 $$$$
We're a nation of frazzled families
With little time for personal affection.
As the treadmills of tension keep us hostage
We're losing our perspective of direction.
Racing to get the kids off to school,
Navigating the madness of bottleneck traffic.
Fearful of our own job-loss and income,
While the newscasts get more hopeless and graphic.
Helping our children with their homework
Scrambling to prepare their dinner.
Having family spats with loved ones
And being told on Sunday, we're a sinner.
Worrying about crime, taxes, cancer and terrorism
Infectious disease and paying next month’s bills.
Saving for college and our own retirement
It's no wonder we drink, smoke, pray and pop pills.
Politicians who wish to be revered by history
Must earn their fame by living the truth.
Any who continue to mislead and deceive
Must be shunned by the voter at the booth.
By Tom Zart
Most Published Poet On The Web!
That's good. Really good.
Indeed sir indeed..
And people want him to run our country the same way.. Totally incomprehensible to me.
Since day ONE he said thats what he planned...And in fact stated He didn't really need all these different division heads ..probably to do it as by himself..And Apparently DID
Why didn’t the banks do their due diligence?
Aren’t they supposed to be the smart people?

@@corujariousa LMAO oh wow he got fined big whoops.. so what happen to all those witch hunts that the dems made up?? 😆
No matter how many times I see it, I’ll still say that T***p has the most obnoxious signature in history. And now it’s part of the public historical record.
Why Mr Braggs didn't go through with his promise to prosecute the rich and powerful to justice is he afraid to prosecute them knowing very well these rich people have committed crimes
I would bet, Bragg was told to drop it. We do not indict ex presidents.
He more likely been threatened to not go further
@@bradsanders6954 That's America's BS narrative that has propped up America's crimes for centuries. Come Clean!!!
The bank who was the party damaged proably told him we do not care. We got the money back! They where his star witness. Banks don't like to get involved in court cases on one of there loans. It was a civil matter unless Trump did not pay up!
Paid cash money.
Lots of people getting paid off to stop the case from gong ahead.
They run a investigation then they stop and run another one, then stop and then go back to the other one and the investigation is about running out of allowed time by the law ,but these lawyers are doing whatever they want to do extend the time it's crap
Thank you, Mr. Pomeranz for all your hard work. I believe in the end you will be vindicated.
“I don’t have to brag!” Well, #DiaperDon, you just DID.
Time for a little side investigation of Alvin Bragg?
Bragg the coward is compromised. He definitely got paid to stop the investigation and not prosecute crooked Trump.
We all know that the rich and powerful get treated differently than the rest of us. This is just one more example of it.
The consequences for financial crimes or breaking regulations are minimal in this county. I've discovered over half dozen of people who have committed fraud, money laundering, and human trafficking through judgement collection process. I literally handed over bank statement and other financial transactions I collected during the subpoena process to AG's and police. To this date note ONE of those individuals have been arrested. The justice system is fundamentally broken, inaccessible to the layperson, and extremely favors those who have money. How in any sort of common sense does a petty drug dealer get 10 years in jail while Elizabeth Holmes gets 12 years (likely 5 for good behavior) for stealing billions? A $25M Ponzi schemer gets only 6 years? Our justice system incentivizes financial fraud through and through. This is what happens when you make DA's politicians who can be bought like Allen Bragg.
Is Bragg taking payoffs ?? Why doesn’t he do his job and hold Trump accountable?
This man is a hero. Trump should be in for a long stay in Club Fed.
...!!JAIL!
His first sentence is EXACTLY right. Other people who’ve done LESSER crimes are indicted & jailed within days or weeks. NO job title should protect you from prosecution. And a president should be held to HIGHER standards.
" my net worth has to be X."
" I just need you to find X number of votes. Just one more than what they have. "
Great skill and professionalism,.... but no charges.

@@carlbeane9227 it's okay, your uncle Donnie will be fine, he'll just spend the rest of his life in court. No biggie, that's where he spent most of his life already
And he still walks free.
Ohhhhh this is why he's melting down on his truth social
The stable genius’s cultists are going to see this and say what a ‘smart and successful’ businessman he is!
Yup, they absolutely will. Anything that goes in his favor, it's bc he is a stable genius. Anything that doesn't go into his favor, it's bc the deep state Illuminati silenced him. Their interpretation is already a foregone conclusion.
They’ll try to say he was framed. Absolutely no one or entire department in the entire world would be able to furnish that much false information about someone.
Cult??? Like the people who think men can get pregnant??? & like the people that said Covid started from a bat and you can't get sick if you get the vaccine??? Those people are in a cult too right?? Or just people you politically disagree with. You
You're a clown

@@chrichri6793 Way to deflect from the entire subject to try and make yourself look smart. What argument have you actually just poised against Akheem’s statement? Literally no one is talking about anything you just said. Who exactly said men can get pregnant? No one believes COVID came from a bat, the lab leak theory is the most likely. What do you mean people said you can’t get sick from a vaccine? That’s literally how vaccines and immunity work. You’re the only clown here.

Everyone in NY in the 90s knew he was corrupt, they just liked his bluster.
No ...as a native NYC resident Trump was ostracized from wealthy circles in Manhattan in the 90s -- everyone knew exactly who and what he was --- including the 7 banks he ripped off.
What?
Exactly! Though, anyone in the USA paying attention in the 90s should know he was, and still is,, and will never stop being corrupt.
@@spideywhiplash : Exactly..... and no NY banks ever lent to him again after a 3 year loan workout to get their money back. Still wondering who -- other than Deutsch Bank -- was lending to him -- still believe Russian oligarchs were in the mix .....
I am looking forward to the day when Donald Trump is but a distant memory, like the memory one has of getting into poison ivy when they went to summer camp.
TY mr Pomerantz, a real American hero
Banks are very sophisticated to know first hand how much a property is worth.

He never had the makings of a variety act 😁👌

No one is above the LAWS. Righttt
Are the banks suing? Or are they waiting for the criminal charges to pan out?
Can one of these reporters please finally just say:
"Can you stop claiming 'that's just a false narrative'?"
It's so transparent and flimsy, and condescending. And they look so smug, and they think their constituents are so ignorant...
Just call them out on it once and for all. Make them stop having a "go-to".
The rest of the world is learning from them. Take that one thing from them. Make them use their words. We're adults, no?
I voted for Trump the first time, but after learning more I wouldn't vote for him again. For one, he failed to unite people and a lot of that was his narcissism and his bragging. Second, there's is enough evidence to conclude he is deceptive and crooked in his business dealings to say the least.
But in 2016 you already knew he'd assaulted/raped 26 women vs. Bill Clinton's 4. Remember Trump's/Bannon's "press conference" with Bill Clinton's victims in October 2016, designed to distract from the Stormy scandal? Yeah, you remember.

Analogy...if one robs a bank and returns the money they still violated the law when they robbed the bank.
Except if the bank denies they were robbed in the first place then the DA is a hack. Pomerantz is a hack.
Perhaps making it a lesser crime, but still a crime. Question is, do banks care, as long as they get their money back?
@@MultisportOfficial so, the allegation here is that the borrower used a fictional or even disingenuous valuation system. The counter evidence is that the bank validated whatever valuation system the borrower used, and the bank is the opposing party here. The bank has a vested interest in ensuring the valuation was accurate. If it’s not their own money is at risk. They’re not validating the valuation in order to lend the government’s money, it’s their money. Their risk. To allege that the borrower lied to the bank when the bank itself does not agree makes the allegation look very suspect.
Bragg needs to get going on this. He has failed in his promises and it is beginning to smell. His constituents should call him on it...loudly.
Oh, BTW, why didn't any of the lenders do independent appraisals?
I thought lady Justice is supposed to be blind, not influenced by status, power, or money? If you break the law here in America, no matter who you are, you are held accountable. Correct?
