I don't think the 14th Amendment can be applied in this case, and, as astounding as it may seem, I'm not sure that 34 felony convictions can prevent him from still running for president. How fucked up is THAT?!!?

I just love Mayor Adams. He is one cool mayor, which you have to be to be Mayor of NYC...

Glenn Kirshner said he thinks Judge Merchon w give him some amount of incarceration. I certainly hope so.

What the absolute minimum he can get though because I'm thinking he'll get that or he'll get paroled.

He won't have good behavior, so it will be fun to have him argue in front of a parole board

That was civil. Can't be guilty in civil, only legally responsible. Different standard

TSF is blaming Biden again eventhough this is a NY State conviction. Time for Biden to speak out. nt

It was definitely the right verdict, based on all the evidence, but I can't help but be a little surprised.

Good. I hope the judge sentences him to the maximum on all counts, to run consecutively...
