- Lawyer Robert Barnes says there is a “substantial chance” the judge of Donald Trump’s hush money case will be dismissed following the SCOTUS ruling.
“It’s what he should do constitutionally,” he told Sky News Australia host James Morrow.
“The big question is whether this judge actually cares about the constitution.”
Stop calling it a hush money case. It was an NDA, perfectly legal.
People sign NDA's all the time. I had to sign once for a job.
And Stormy Daniels didn't honor the NDA. Trump should get his money back plus interest.
@@protorhinocerator142 She was ultimately released from the NDA, I believe in 2018.
@@barryhall5125 But not released by Trump. She was released by some activist judge.
@@protorhinocerator142 He kind of did. He filed a motion that he would not bring action to enforce any of the terms of the NDA, adding that he never claimed to be a party to it. Which was true. Michael Cohen filed a similar motion at that time.
It was an election interference case.
See how unfair they are to President Trump.
See how Trump and justice still win! Trump2024!!!
that's putting it mildly
So, kids, a jury of 12 folks picked from a pool of 200 sat through several weeks of testimony and presentation of documents, paid close attention by all accounts, and found Trump guilty. Just because Trump says he did nothing wrong, just because you happen to not like him being held accountable, just because he is a candidate for public office are not adequate reasons to ignore the law and the finding of the jury.
Justice was never the issue here, Trump was almost guaranteed to win on appeal because of Merchan’s behavior and the overreach of the charges. The point was to embarrass Trump and diminish him in the eyes of the voters. Nothing more.
And that worked out so well for the democrats!! Trump 2024!!!
If you believe a New York Appeals Court dominated by Democrats will overturn the rulings of a Democrat Criminal Courts judge, you are delusional.
Actually, it was a stalling tactic. All on the taxpayers dime no less.
It didn’t work
That’s exactly what it was. that’s why they had stormy Daniels telling stories about sex when they had nothing to do with the case. it was supposed to be about falsified documents which were falsified by Michael Cohen. They played that salacious testimony on every news program on repeat. The porn star that was extorting a presidential candidate was suddenly everybody’s hero.
Wait until you hear what the Supreme Court has to say about that.
Because there’s a law specifically against irrelevant testimony..
They refused to allow the election official testify that would explain the alterations in the financial documents . But they let that freaking porn star gold digging slut play victim after she got paid for the confidentiality agreement. which by the way she defaulted on and will now have to pay Trump.
Why wasn’t Michael Cohen and stormy Daniels charged with extortion?
Forget Trump's conviction, when are they going to prosecute the judge?
And everyone else involved in perpetrating this abuse.
Never. No basis for it.
It is ironic - judges have absolute immunity for their official conduct.
@@chriskelly1890 You sound delusional.....Joe is that you ?
In time, if inequities were carried out,the judge most certainly will be held to account, legally.
The Democrat lawfare is falling to pieces...
Just like Joe Biden.
Stop calling it a hush money case. It was an NDA. Perfectly legal.
Was there even enough evidence to prove that it ever happened?
He was never charged with paying hush money. He was charged with falsifying business records to influence a "federal" election. The records were not false they were booked as payments for legal services. What legal services? Organising a non disclosure agreement which is legal. The case was Judicial fraud.
@@jimdent351 Yes, plenty of proof that there was an NDA. But that isn't illegal. The alleged illegal part was the bookkeeping relating to it.
Bookkeeping was correct. Entries were correct and payments were made. No fraud or errors occurred. Any accountant can dispute the states case.
Apparently it was an nda for like 2015 to 2020 and expired, the alleged crime was claiming it as like a campaign finance for taxes or whatever
Jack Smith reminds me of the mutt
dog chasing the tires on a Ferrari.
Donald Trump 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 Pierre Poilievre
And hopefully Javier Milei
Trudeau has to go, but for the record Poilievre has no ideas. He has only run on the distain for Trudeau. Don't expect things to improve.
@@debussy843 it's hopefully better than whatever fascism Trudeou is running
@@debussy843yes the damage cause by trudeau is irreversible at this point. It's too late now already.

Here's the problem. When judges are appointed based on their political affiliation you will sooner or later get to a situation like this. No matter where you stand in political terms, there is a measure of unfairness in the judges' rulings. It is not about justice at all, it is about who you,as judge, want to support.
In another words, human nature ( good or bad ) will some what kicks in...
Yeah, the Docs case Judge is clearly biased for Trump. That trial should have started weeks ago and she keeps delaying it for bogus reasons. I suspect an investigation into her finances are in order.
and the SCOTUS?
That depends on the integrity of the judge though too.
Not necessarily so.
Republicans respect the constitution particularly wrt separation of powers.
Democrats do not respect the constitution and think they have the authority to make laws in all three branches of government, and the bureaucracy too.
I don’t think the judge was bothered by the law during trial!
How could he be? He was simply making up his own law along the way.
Prssident Trump 2024 🎉❤️🇦🇺🦘
Go Barnes
No one is above the law. However Trump isnt treated fairly in the justice system.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@Aaronwhatnow Stop laughing, you dumb piece of shit!
That's true. He's been treated FAR BETTER than anyone else would have been. Should have been jailed several times for gag order violations.
Why wasnt he treated fairly?
@@SenorJuan2023 See, postings as yours just reinforce the impression that some people want the judiciary to eliminate Mr. Trump from political competition.
Yay. Robert Barnes on Aussie news!!🎉
Corrupt judge anyway
Great interview! Thank you!
Robert Barnes is the Best, No doubts about it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How sbout dismissing. A crooked judge. 🤡🤡
The one in the Docs case that is heavily biased for Trump?

I'm proud to be a Missourian lately.
We have been up there at the front of the pack fighting back against a lot of this nonsense.
Yes you have! It has not gone unnoticed. The Show Me state living up to its name!
Not a chance in hell will Judge Merchan dismiss the case. Even doubtful the New York appellate courts would act fairly. And yes, the Supreme Corut did make a mistake in 2020 by not hearing the Article II, section II case dealing with electors and state legislatures.
I should be dismissed but don't hold your breath.
Great mind Prof Barnes!!! Thank you for this information!!!
I agree Robert. If the NY court sentences him to any time, file a habeas motion directly in the SCt. The judge should declare a mistrial or JNOV. Will he? I doubt it.
Florida. Smith is not constitutionally appointed. Every thing he’s done is null and void. The DC judge didn’t even make a record on the case. They are reversing on that basis too.
Bailey out of MO is suing NY for the gag order. It’s unconstitutional. Will they take it. That is the question. Sometimes they refuse cases that are so politically charged. But 1A is very important in a presidential election. His right to campaign and my right to hear him are on the line.
It's sad when I need to get truthful US news from a foreign news source like SNA but I am very appreciative that you are there doing the job the US MSM will not.
Les Miserables haha exactly great comparison
One of the most informed lawyer....Robert Barnes....
It appears to me that TH-cam is blocking my first amendment, right two comments. I’ll seek an attorney on Monday
Finally you guys are getting Robert Barnes on. Took you long enough.
There will be a malicious prosecution lawsuit and eventually all will know how screwed up this case was. The hush money stuff was not a crime. How was it a crime we can ask and no one can explain it because it wasn't a crime. Not an FEC violation, nothing.
Barnes! Our guy!
He should!
Don't forget to remind all the leftists that we told them exactly this would happen, just like it did every single other time they "definitely got Trump this time!" 😂
We'll remind them once again, and once again, they'll learn absolutely NOTHING. TDS is a terrible affliction.
This comment shouldn't be pinned on every video regarding these cases!😂
These are some good comments and observations by the lawyer.
The shows over, and they (judges) see the writing on the wall.
They may soon be the ones having to explain their unconstitutional actions...
Barnes is the best.
A natural result of the immunity decision and the comments by Thomas that the prosecutor was not legally appointed.
So they choose to call it "hush money" like it is dirty. It's no different than signing an NDA, any REAL judge can look at this and throw it out. No crime, no penalties. These dirty DA's and judges need to be removed, and yeah I mean removed. Violations of the 1st, 4th, 6th and 14th amendment.
All charges in all cases should be dismissed. Your clowns for persecuting this man we all see what your doing. WE THE PEOPLE ARE NOT DUMB
Yeah, you are. Trump is guilty as sin in the other cases too. That's why he keeps delaying them. Use some critical thinking skills. WOW
We the people are the Majority who since before 2016 have rejected Trump.
Stop feeding the obvious BOT.... designed for FOX and MAGA m0r0ns
@@edthebumblingfoolnot anymore you’re not 😂
Wouldn’t the gag order be limited to the NY venue only? How can a local judge have federal jurisdiction?
It is not hush money. They should know the legal terminology. it is call NDA.
There is no legal term such as Hush Money. There is such a legal term called Settlement. Do you remember Nick Sandman and the CNN case? Sandman also signed an Settlement Agreement plus NDA. Where did CNN book the expense? LEGAL Expenses.
The Federal charges they used to elevate the Misdemeanor to a Felony are all protected by Presidential Immunity. It will either be a mistrial or dismissed all together.
About time… finally some sort of justice is starting to prevail
This should be dismissed because of constitutional violation of 6th admendment, due process etc. not immunity
Yay Barnes
What does FJB mean? I keep hearing it over and over
No chance because there is no legal reason to dismiss it.
oh hey Viva's friend Barnes! :)
The Supreme Court has not upheld the US Constitution on many occasions.
He wont get done because he is on course to become president
Nope, he's going to be sentenced to jail in September, despite what this law school flunkee thinks.
@@SenorJuan2023 Nnnnnnope.
@@richardlafleur8389for the sake of the world, can't happen soon enough!
@@richardlafleur8389 Trump is on course to be sentenced in jail come September. hahahahahaha
@@josefeibl8230 Will be jailed in September. LOL
This is America, judges do not follow the law here, he will double down.
I would think it should be a embarrassment to have a higher court overturn a judges decision, it’s like hey I don’t know the law, I’m unqualified, therefore I’m unemployed.
A judge would never have allowed this case to go to trial. The New York judge in question is a NY democratic political operative. This is all a political trial, real banana republic stuff
Great to see Barnes on here. Trump is just playing them all for fools - it's very entertaining.
I sure hope so
Not much chance of that, only a judge who believed in the rule of law would do that.
🇺🇸🇺🇸Trump 2024. Make America Great Again. 🇺🇸🇺🇸
He'll throw the case out but order an immediate retrial which will stop Trump from campaining for several weeks right before the election?..
"Order an immediate retrial" - are you joking? Do you actually think trials happen instantaneously or overnight. They certainly don't. This isn't the UK.
All these cases are justifiably imploding. 😂
Democrat Fascist is redundant
Jack Smith has no legal status
I wonder if the Judicial system has been so lazy over the past while that lawyers have just been accepting the way things are done not really following the law as it stands too much and just expected it to all go the way they wanted it to go because that's the way it has been done for so long and then DT comes in and says 'we have to drain the swamp". and they all go "he can't do that, this is the way it has been done for years now" but really people have just been doing a yes man thing to protect their own jobs and not really pushing against the accepted way.
What a waste of time.
Vote Trump 👍
_'..any kind of sentence of any kind..'_ Why does the bald guy keep speaking this redundancy ?
it's robert! hey, bobby!!!!!
This dam judge ant dismissing trump case the man hates trump
If the Judge was a legit Judge who followed the law, then yes. But I expect the Judge will not pay attention to the Supreme Court decision.
Compared to this the war in Ukraine looks tame

I hope Trump starts to sue every one of them as soon as these cases are dismissed.
It's not even n real legitimate case😂 so why will the judge treat it like one and dismiss it.
Bill Clinton had his own dress.
God allowed this injustice and abuse of power only to show how almighty He is, and his control over evil. May He continue to protect Donald Trump
God often takes evil and uses it for good according to his will. Sometimes, I think he allowed Joe Biden to be president to really expose how corrupted our government really is. I now a lot of Americans probably had little trust in the government, I, for one, was surprised to see just how deep that corruption went.
To see how government institutions like the FBI, DOJ,and CIA can totally abandon working for the people and just go completely rouge.
JB is only great in SHOUTING to keep himself full awake & worst got soooo easily bullied by world leaders....!!!
Yea and Amen in Jesus Christ Name God willing/
I do not know if MERCHAN believes in GOD. But if he does I would bet he is thanking GOD for allowing his this off-ramp.
As for Cannon I see her dismissing the case because of Smith. That ends all cases that have anything to do with Smith.
Not likely considering there's already a conviction involving the hush money case, now... if they dropped Jack Smiths documents case, that's the total miscarriage of justice.
yeah right,....yawn.
You mean the case where Jack Smith’s “agents” altered evidence, that case?
Not a hush money case. Charged as a business expense violation. Jack burned himself by adding "Top Secret" cover pages, that were not part of the evidence. He admitted to tampering with evidence. No admissible evidence, no case.
No, what makes the hush money case eligible is the evidence Bragg used to prosecute the case. The evidence used was dated after Trump was elected president starting in February of 2017. Trump claimed executive privilege on that evidence . Now that there is some presidential immunity involved that evidence may no longer be admissible. It may be thrown out.
Then Bragg would have to start over.
The problem was that Bragg and Merchan were so quick to get a conviction that they didn't wait to see what the SC immunity ruling would be.
Trump never stopped being the President. FJB.
When this is all over every single dollar of taxpayer money that was spent on trying to convict this man in every single case should be pay back to the taxpayer millions and millions and millions of dollars starting with Hillary Clinton and all the rest of the way down has been wasted that we the taxpayers I have paid for
Trump 2024 USA 🇺🇸 USA 🇺🇸 let’s go
The AG Missouri case against NY State is about far more than violation of 1st Amendment Rights. Because potential sentencing on the 34 felony counts could include imprisonment, home arrest, or probation that restricts travel, all of which would impact on Trump's ability to campaign in Missouri, the lawsuit against NY could also raise issues with violations of Trump's 14th Amendment right re selective prosecution and equal treatment under the law, 5th Amendment right to due process and to know the charges he was tried under, and 6th Amendment right to an impartial jury. This case could potentially be a fast-track to the Supreme Court overturning the entire case without having to go through an appeals process through the NY state courts first. If that NY trial judge sees the writing on the wall, he may choose to dismiss the case before it can be overturned.
I believe he will declare a mistrial. It's a much more graceful outcome for the judge than being reversed for due process violations.
As for Missouri's suit, it is strictly about the 1st Amendment. They can't sue because Trump's rights were violated, only their own. The 1st Amendment isn't only the right to speak, but also the right to hear. This is how Missourians have standing.
@@barryhall5125 I understand it's only a 1st Amendment issue for Missouri and that's how they will argue standing, but the violation of the 1st Amendment arose from an unconstitutional prosecution. Would SCOTUS only consider the validity of any sentencing which restricted Missouri 1st Amendment rights, or would it consider the validity of the trial and verdict?
@@peterlegg7456 I'm certain SCOTUS would only address the gag and potential sentencing. First, that's the only relief Missouri's asking for. Second they are loathe to intervene in the usual appeal process. And in fact since the sentence has not yet been pronounced, the judge could conceivably set aside the jury's verdict (fat chance I know) so an appeal would be unnecessary. Stranger things have happened, and I'd be truly surprised if even stranger things DON'T happen between now and the election!
Jack Smith must have sold his soul to Satan.
This is bs. It was a civil case.
But Bragg used a federal law to help prosecute it. The Federal Election Commission law. Which they had no jurisdiction to bring. If remember, the statue of limitations had run on on the state misdemeanor charge.
The conviction will stand, as the conduct at issue is private, not official. There is NO evidence that the conviction is based on official conduct
@@christiancarrazana9534 The issue is when and how the evidence was obtained. The testimony of several key witnesses is based on "official" communications. Thus, those discussions would not be allowed as evidence in a trial under the Supreme Court ruling.
Not about the Presidential immunity. It's the fact the rules weren't followed. Appeal will easily overturn the conviction.
@@stanleyday7293 No, it wasn’t based on official acts. An official act is when the president is exercising his core constitutional powers.
@@stanleyday7293 you should read the opinion again. The context of the communications were not official, as Trump wasn’t exercising his powers as president but instead as a private individual.
Just because some of the communications took place within the White House, doesn’t mean that it was official.
@@christiancarrazana9534 You could be correct. The talking head in the original piece had the opinion regarding the source of the evidence.
3:54 "President of the United States, former president of the United States, and future president of the United States." He knows the president Trump is going to win in November. 👍🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
So long as there is no successful 'funny business' as there was in 2020, President Trump will handily defeat the corpse, come November.
@rightlyso8507 Agreed. But we both know that the demented left is already over their heads in funny business. We just have to overwhelm the polls and mail-in voting.

Wow this guy knows his shit.
Barnes has been talked about as a possible choice for Attorney General, if and when President Trump gets back in the White House.
Trumpster!
You are guessing.
Robert Barns has forgotten more about US State and Federal law and the US constitution than you could ever know; so there's that.
I'll take his guesses over your "facts" any day, Colin. 🤭
Lol. "Substantial" is a funny word for 0%
Willing to vote Trump if you're wrong?
Danger Dan the Trump Gum Swallower 😂
sounds like soy talking...
you need a crayon and some plushies to get you over this big guy?
You thought the walls were really closing in this time, didn’t you
And if they do. The American justice system is broken.
America is broken
Based on ?
It’s broken now, this will partially correct it
"If it doesn't work the way I want it to, it's broken! WAAAAAAH!"
Spoken like the truly triggered manlet you are, Kaaron. 🤭
It was broken once Democrats began using the courts against their opponents.
How can he dismiss it he has already been found guilty by his jurors. Its like unreading a book, it cant be done. We as Americans know he is guilty.
Hopefully trumps sentence will be for the rest of his miserable life
34 felonies at 4 years per felony, consecutive not concurrent - that should keep Trump out of the limelight for the rest of his mortal time! And Rikers would be the most appropriate location!!
Too bad for you and your teedie comrades that's simply not going to happen. 🤭
Because that's what Leftist Stalinists do, they weaponize the justice system against the opposition to gain political advantage!
Not ever going to happen, do you not listen to the Supreme Court? do you not see that Merchan has put off sentencing until AT LEAST SEPTEMBER because he knows he is going to have to thrown the entire case out and then
bragg is going to have to try the entire thing again... are you dense? or [retarded]?
Trump will not serve even one day in prison and will not be a "convicted felon".
Trump is NOT "above the law". Presidential immunity IS THE LAW. The JUDGE is not above the law. The case will be declared a mistrial. The verdict will be vacated.
The Judge messed it up by allowing inappropriate evidence and testimony to be presented over defense objections of immunity. He should have waited for the SCOTUS decision before starting the trial. 🤷♂
Haste makes waste!
The FEC found the Clinton Campaign had Violated Campaign Finance Laws... Because they used $1 Million of Campaign Funds to BUY the Fake Russia Dossier.
The Campaign ADMITTED Guilt and paid a Fine.
The REAL Crime was Federal Election Interference.
Aided and abetted by the Rogue FBI. Funny that even after being PROVEN to have Lied to the FISA Court many times..
NOBODY @ FBI ever got in ANY trouble. Smells like Fascism at work. *******
He's as guilty as sin. He's NOT above the law.
Stop treating the grifting thief with kid gloves.
No he's not above the law. But the law should not be contorted to get one man, that's what banana republics do, not first world countries. If you think it's ok to go look for a crime to get Trump, you are equally insane as the cabal of Democrats in the States and if it happens to your side in future, you brought it on yourself!
You say that while they have not even indebted the Bidens for influence trafficking.
I hear the 'moron' alarm siren going off on this one.
Guilty of what ? Funny all these people who say that , can’t tell what he did
Grifter? Trump's net worth went down during and immediately after his presidency. The Clintons, Obamas, Bushes, Bidens, Pelosi, McConnell, Waters, etc. are true political grifters whose net worth increased by tens of millions. This is not supported by their govt. salaries and reasonable capital gains! Don't let the facts get in your way!!!
I wish I could share your enthusiasm, but this is infected with so much corruption, I think they will try something dirty and under handed.
No slobber mouth, there is absolutely no chance his conviction will be dismissed, none, zip, zero.
merchant will throw trump in jail still
