Taking misdemeanor charges and making them into felonies for a “First Time Offender “ is enough to raise that red flag for all to see.
I've seen felonies reduced to misdemeanors. This is the first time I've ever seen a misdemeanor turned into a felony.
Happens all the time to ⚫️ people
Passed the statue of limitations as well
@@donnybrooks71 A lot of cases are expanded from misdemeanor to felony. I've personally been involved in these type of cases.
Trump did not commit crimes anywhere.
The joke of a judge, and even the jury, needs to be prosecuted for this persecution.
@willbar1961
It would have helped those bound by loyalty instead of the facts to read the court transcripts. There is a reason that 2 MAGA Jurors joined in the unanimous Felony convictions.
The Joke isn't the Judge or Prosecutor or Jury.
The Joke is the American People for allowing it.
@georgemalley6414
Agreed. A Blue vote will stop the dysfunction in the House. Will start Impeachment proceedings of SCOTUS Judges that falsely testified during confirmation hearings that NO President is above the LAW.
Will stop the Corporate Greed instrumental on high grocery prices.
Trump got my vote in 2016. It's the last one from me. His lies of no connection to Project 25, when in actuality the authors worked for the Trump administration.
Our loss of Democracy is far more important than ONE MAN and his lack of accountability.
@georgemalley6414
I agree!
I have to tell you, had I not downloaded the court transcripts, I would be voting differently in November than I am now. I voted for Trump in 2016.
I had expected all DEM's testifying against Trump since he called it a witch hunt. Surprisingly, instead, it was all Republicans who were his closest friends and those that actually worked for him who testified truthfully against him. Even the two Maga Jurors joined in on the unanimous felonies conviction.
The transcripts are available on scribes. It will open your eyes as it did me.
It's the American people who will vote to stop the unreasonable rulings of judges who rule with political biases instead of ruling for ALL Americans.
SCOTUS ruling to gut our Constitution now giving the powers to exactly the one the Founding Father's feared most- a rogue president that petitioned the court to now be above our rule of law. Add a criminal mind to the position and we are no longer the UNITED States.
Our Constitution and Democracy weighs far better if I join in a blue vote.
@@MargaretLindsay-jx7mnTwo maga jurors ayayay another fake info.😂😂😂😂
If they can do this to a former President what chance do you have?
First you have to do something Illegal, that a jury of your peers and/or a judge makes a ruling of. Quilty.
Don't you mean, if the former president of the USA can do this to us and our country, what chance do we have. ?? We aren't breaking the laws, trump and his cronies are. This chaos started when trump took over, down hill ever since. And before you go there, I was a republican but I wasn't stupid. It was so simple to see what he was before the election. But voters let their greed and violent mentality take over. Now look at us.
Yeah a billionaire too. We have no chance at all against the machine.
Well if you don’t pull the bullcrap that Trump did you don’t have nothing to worry about now do you…
@@rogerhecker4111what bull___p was that? Please list several and be specific.
Bragg should be IMPROSONED NOW!!!!!!
Bragg needs to be “PROSECUTED BY HIS OWN SYSTEM”! no one is above the law! “UNITED STATES AIR FORCE VETERAN” I weep for the American people! 🇺🇸
Thank you from a fellow Wing Nut with all due respect
@@SIERRA-dx9wm AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE 🫡🇺🇸
This was a kangaroo court from the beginning. The judge should be reprimanded and Bragg should be disbarred!!!
The "reprimand" of the "judge" is simply not enough. What that judge did is treason.
Judge as well should be disbarred
@@montecallaway1886YEP.
Both should be jailed. Election interference is treason.
Yes Bragg should have to pay all the money That was wasted in New York The Judge should have to pay Back also
AGAIN!!!!! Not one Damn thing will happen. We the people are PISSED!!!
You said it!!
Take a civics class!
@@GregoryLanderI hate having to take showers with daddy. Ashley Biden's diary pg 11. Google it. I dare you!
100% CORRECT it's all a dog and pony show.
Not one person will be charged or removed. Corrupt government
We want accountability for these absolute disgraces
Lawfare is a word that i didn't know existed until this administration pursued it. Sickening.
Made up by right wing crybabies
It didn't exist until trump found out it triggers his uneducated base.
@@meachbeatsproductionsmbp2460 "Those people" don't count to Sunny. I doubt Sunny even knows what you're referring to.
@tonyd.5151 What about the laws that didn't allow black people to enter through the front door! What about the laws that kept black people in chains. What about the laws that took black people property and restricted them from living in white communities. Lawfare is old news unless your white, rich, and powerful.
Useful idiot isn't a term I knew until I learned about MAGA, Comrade.
The DA and judge need to go to jail!
Bragg and many others should go to jail for lawfare
DA bragg went after trump because he's white
Go to jail for what? Hurting Trump’s feelings? 😂
No one is above the law, bud.
@@css1323🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑
He.broke.the.law. It was proven in court. You are wasting my tax dollars with this charade. You should be arrested for lying to the American people.

Get rid of Bragg and the rest of them. All corrupt.
Waaaahhhh! Save us FELONY Donnie!!!
@@robyoung-pl1gq Take your meds, Roby.
@@robyoung-pl1gq You're happy to make crooked dems rich?
Yes
@@robyoung-pl1gq That felony verdict if falling apart faster than Biden's memory.
About time the Republicans fought back.
When does this happen? They have done nothing. Wouldn't defend Trump before why do you think it is happening now?
@@lilliann2012 they are?
They are saving the world for Jesus!!!! duh
That's hilarious!
Republicans tend to “Forgive & Forget” because their Donors direct them to do. Donors have a propensity to play both sides against the middle because they can with impunity.
Never seen such a crooked DA in my life. He needs to go to prison now.
I have in two states in my life time
Fani
Ohhh theres more!
@@fungfrancis7156 so anyone charging trump is crooked? Typical
Get rid of Bragg.
Yes
Put him in jail
Lock Jim up, lock Jim up, lock Jim up!!!
Jail Bragg! Disbar!!!!
Finally, Jordan you and the Real Republicans have found the Backbone to fight back.
Tired of the word “ impeach “, when we should be using the word “ incarcerate.”
ok adolf!!!
@@robyoung-pl1gq …. Any relation to AOC?
@@davidwomack5982 ....Any relation to an American?
@@robyoung-pl1gq …. Yes indeed. Does a veteran of war qualify, and a believer in God Almighty?
@@davidwomack5982 Thought trump was your God?
DISBARR THIS OBVIOUS CRIMINAL...If you don't stop it,...it will continue
Make trump stop committing felonies
It already has continued for 8 years
@robyoung-pl1gq it wasn't a felony. It was a misdemeanor that THEY turned into 32 felonies 😂 not to mention past statute of limitations
@@robyoung-pl1gqBragg and James have stole taxpayers money and bled.them dry
Fun fact: Congress cannot remove him. He's a duly elected STATE official. And it doesn't look like NY's governor is getting on this honey dipper wagon.
Jim Jordan is right...throw Alvin into jail
For what? Doing his job so well? Having integrity +enough respect for the courts and taxpayers’ money to not waste it when he wasn’t sure that he could convict yet? (unlike Trump and Rudy and Habba fined for filing all those frivolous lawsuits) But then Bragg was sure, prove him GUILTY. Now, If Trump wasn’t found GUILTY of EVERYTHING so far, Id understand the accusation of being targeted, but he’s 3-0 dude. Clearly he’s being held accountable just like everyone else should be, but especially the president. So what’s wrong with that? Nothing. It’s called Justice. It’s what protects and deters our society from human darkness.
@tresadunn3047 Your TDS is at critical levels seek help immediately.
@@tresadunn3047 Found "guilty" by a Trump hating court doesn't mean anything.
@@Cohen.the.WorrierSlow Tuesday at the " car wash" , huh. ?
@@tresadunn3047
You are terribly misinformed my friend. Mr Bragg is a perfect example of why our legal system is in shambles. 🇺🇸
The Judge, gets the same charges & it becomes a Title 18, 241 & 242. Deny Rights under color of Law.
Exactly Correct 💯%😎👍
Yes, Indeed 👍💯%
Alvin Bragg IS SOMETHING THE AMERICAN PEOPLE DON'T WANT
Agree
Well, Donald Trump is someone that the people don’t want either!
You should know.
No that"s Trump we don"t want
@@sally-sp8ee That’s certainly an opinion. Just not one held by most
Now do something about it mr.jorden !
Like what? Specifically what do you want him to do that he has the power to do?
People need a refresher in Civics! Congress' job is to do OVERSIGHT! That means hearings and investigations!
Nothing gets done as usual
@@JohnSmith-ks5xw He has the power to answer his subpoena. Yet he chooses not to. Why is that?
@@winlam8792 I don't know, but I'm sure you will assign an intention that suits your narrative.
Jim Jordan an American hero!
Please remove Bragg from office and
license to practice law.
The republicans talk but do nothing.
@@jimmcc1140 Excuse me while I vomit….you’re talking about the Jim Jordan who didn’t give a damn about those college kids when they came to him for help ? Or the Jim Jordan who ignored the request to appear before the Jan 6 Committee investigation on the insurrection? Or the Jim Jordan that hasn’t done a damn thing in his committee for almost 2 yrs for the American people. You must mean the Jim Jordan that lied about Hunter Biden when Jordan and Comer couldn’t come up with any evidence against President Biden to impeach him and when they had nothing went after Hunter. Finally the Jim Jordan that went after the Atty Gen of New York because Jordan was frustrated on everything he tried and failed. Simple facts on the record…so this makes an American hero? We’re in deep trouble !!
Ok, Jim. The people say that Bragg is to be Declared in violation of Oath perjury. Per Decree of the People.
@@robyoung-pl1gqno one's a felon until sentencing.
@@robyoung-pl1gq not until sentencing, he isn't! Merchan's postponed it 2x. He HOPING to stay out of PRISON, just like Bragg is!! Research ANY legal scholar who's agreed with Merchan! There AREN'T ANY!!!!
@@robyoung-pl1gq he WILL, because Joementia has a 67% DISAPPROVAL RATING & had a pathetic performance during the debate!!
Legal actions against Steve Bannon, Peter Navarro, Michael Flynn, Douglass MacKey, and others need to be reviewed
The "charges" need to be DISMISSED!!!!!!!
Rudi Guliani also
Particularly General Flynn. I was distressed when that happened. He had devoted his life to this country and to have that happen, awful.
Impeach Alvin Bragg.
Nah. Appoint him to the Supreme Court, so he can dish out justice.
@@css1323sarcasm, right??😕
@@css1323What a good idea 💡
To start with...
Then move on to the Prosecution of Crimes committed
He's not federal.
Alvin Bragg, plz send him to Jail!
Put Alvin in jail and call his cell Fort Bragg.
Fraud Bragg
Feed him beans 3 times a day. Thereby changing the vowel.
😂 I absolutely love it since they changed Fort Bragg to Fort Liberty because, Bragg was a high ranking confederate soldier during the Civil War. 😂
Charge BRAGG and Merchan both they knew better
Stop talking about it and DO SOMETHING!!
Well said
@@penzo8803 They can't. They have no power, sad
Exposing it is doing something. We would not know about any of this if it wasn't for these people. When they reveal this information, they make themselves targets. At least we are being told. That being said, I do understand your statement wholeheartedly.
All Jordan knows how to do
Read About The Separation of Powers!
The D.O.J. Is The Law Enforcement Branch of America's Federal Government, and Garland Absolutely Refuses To Do His Constitutional Duties, Against Democrats!
The judge should be reprimanded and Bragg should be disbarred!!!
It would do my little heart good to see Bragg and Letitia James called before one of these committees and, after being questioned for a couple of hours, be led out in handcuffs and shackles.
Oh is that how hearings usually end? The people testifying arrested without a single charge filed - no wonder Gym is a no show to his subpoenas knowing this
Amen🙏🙏🙏
Unfortunately, this goes much higher than Bragg.
Im so tired of them "yelling" on the house floor and then nothing happens.
It's a due process
It’s a show to make you feel better. They know once you relax you will forget and you will. They also get to grand stand.
@@bluwng I know. Im just annoyed with it because its obvious thats what they do.
Life in prison for Bragg and entire democrap party 2024!!!!
just disbar him.
@@TimHall-y8sexactly if they can do it to Rudy Giuliani INNOCENT man. They can do it to Bragg corrupt DA JS
Everyone involved should be disbarred.
Its about time something was actually done about these criminals. Bragg bragged and is a creep.
Alvin is USELESS...Manhattan is more dangerous since he took office...
Actually it's proven less dangerous! Oh, and so has Fulton County!
@@meachbeatsproductionsmbp2460 Rape and Violent crimes are UP. in NYC...check the stats...you don't know what you are talking about lol..
@@meachbeatsproductionsmbp2460NOPE. MISINFORMATION.

@_mergg yup they track crime statistics😂 you people are weak when it comes to facts.
Bragg is going down !
I can only hope that if trump wins he’l brings charges against Bragg and these other da and judge hacks !
Bragg should 1st be indicted and arrested, then face a jury, then judge Merchan should be removed from the bench and disbarred
ALVIN BRAGG SHOULD GO TO JAIL, PERIOD.
Jordan…put Bragg away!
Political persecution.Put Bragg behind bars
Hey Alvin your bosses the SOROS family are waiting for you!!
Put ScumBragg behind bars and throw away the key.
Don’t forget he needs a 20 foot sandwich from mikes subs and a box Oreos me Alvin me hungry 😋
Absolutely disgraceful
Mr Bragg needs to be held accountable and resign immediately and needs to be investigated and charged accordingly for his corruption!
Alvin Bragg needs to go on trial in a Republican state and found guilty and sentenced to life in prison.😠
Jim Jordan your the man... I believe your one of the only true fighters we have left in the Conservative Party..Keep up the good work..JUSTICE 👍 👏
Don't forget chuck Schumer brother who also one of the lawyers going after trump
We the American 🇺🇸 people totally 💯 agree with you Mr Jim Jordan 🫶 we would like to see more action from the Republicans 🗳️💯❤️🤍💙🙏🏼🛡️
Love this quote from G. Orwell's '1984.' Reminds me of the dem party and China CCP: "The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes & ears; this was their final, most essential command."
Democrats are the censorship party, and the never verify a vote party too.
The democrats showed all the evidence! Unfortunately the republicans are having sham hearings over and over with no evidence produced! You need to rethink your position or crawl back into your cave!
THIS IS MUSIC TO MY EARS!!! VENGEANCE IS OF THE LORD!
Jim, you forget one of the most important parts of justice - someone has to suffer consequences. Your rough talking them isn't enough.
America has suffered under this corrupt administration. He is doing exactly what Biden tells him to do. Most corrupt presidency in America.
Not suffered consequences? Are you kidding? Trump & family have suffered! American public is traumatized over the fact they could be next! NYC residents have suffered from reduced commerce and higher prices! This should be a class action lawsuit.
@@stevennewman9536 reread my statement and you will realize Im referring to the dims on the other side not suffering consequences. you're right though - dims are better and making conservatives suffer
@@dcxo88 - your meaning was unclear, thanks for the clarification. Also, I agree JJ and others need to go after them. They have the position and the skills. Talk is cheap.
Jail Alvin Bragg
TRUMP 2024
Now file charges! All talk no action.
One by one they are falling 🙏🏼Lord let’s go🙏🏼ALL WILL BE REVEALED NOTHING WILL STAY HIDDEN 🙏🏼
This tells us what they REALLY think about justice.
And the daughter of the judge, making money on this? It can't be America.

I have been waiting for grownups to come into the room for so long. I am so glad they are dealing with this.
Send Bragg to prison and Start setting a precedent!!!!!
It’s time to show No one is above it
The Peter principle is a concept in management developed by Laurence J. Peter which observes that people in a hierarchy tend to rise to "a level of respective incompetence"
This describes the Democratic Party to a T
Umm, sorry, no cup needed here ! I think it's to a "T"!😊
Absolutely correct
Contempt of congress put Bragg in jail!!
Go Mr. Jordan and President Trump 2024.
The corrupt legal system needs to be Reformed and Alvin Bragg has to be prosecuted.
Reading through these comments is truly uplifting. Thank you!
It's the replies that suck.
boy it is a draw as to which state has THE WORST law system, crapafornia, or ny!
Both
jail that punk
Each should be prosecuted after the investigation with the RICO act and barred from ever holding public office at any capacity again.
Bragg should be dis-barred!
alvin bragg needs brought to congress and answer some serious question he has make a joke of the justice system
A little time in jail goes a long way with these out of control lawyers.
How does a "bookeeping error" turn into 34 felonies ?
All you have to do is consider the accused’s identity. That’s the only reason this happened: his existence is a threat to the Left.
The corruption is so obvious and runs so deep!
They wear their corruption as a badge of honor.
oh i forgot these hearing's do nothing, like always...
Hearings educate Americans That's invaluable!
Waste time resources accomplish nothing - this what Gym want to be doing months before the election?
FJB and the rest of the CLOWNS
How mature and intelligent of you. /s
DA Alvin Bragg should be jailed for his failed criminal policies.
FJB
Gaetz said Bragg wouldn't show he was right
What is the point of this without Bragg showing up for anything? WHO HAS THE HUBRIS TO SAY "I'm too busy" for CONGRESS? Ridiculous.
Gym Jordan ignores subpoenas regularly
Republicans must get accountability for every one of these coups and it must be painful!!!
Do something about besides talking about it
The responsibility to indict belongs to the DOJ. Congress can only expose the truth to the American public so the vail comes off. They can refer it to DOJ, but who controls that ? There's the problem.
Alvin Bragg must answer GOP'S ⁉️
Thank you Jim
Even if Trump were guilty of undervaluing or overvaluing a property that the tax assessor claims is worth 25 million, how can the fine be 340 million dollars? And isn't the case based upon a minor miscalculation of actual value? A fine for such a trivial offense should be several thousand dollars, not anywhere near 340 million dollars.
Thank you!
DEBAR Alvin Bragg
Obviously trumped up charges.
Glad to see they are following up on this. I'm proud of you Jim. Keep up the pressure and you should be SOTH.
I would love to hear a rebuttal to Mr. Jim Jordans opening statement from a democratic leader.
Perfectly written and completely true! Thank you Sir. NOW WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT THIS POLITICAL OPPONENT PERSECUTION ! ???
He needs to be indicted. He needs to be sued in a class action by Americans to see him ran out of town just like Fannie and the tish should be next.
The corruption is out of control...
It is too bad that nothing ever happens from these Congressional hearings.
Yes the corrupt judge Bragg needs to go to prison
