(THREAD) The White House line on the Paul Manafort indictment—it has nothing to do with Trump—is a lie. Here's why.
1/ Paul Manafort is alleged by the FBI to have LAUNDERED UKRAINIAN MONEY *while* he was running Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign.

(THREAD) I’m a Trump biographer and presidential historian who’s also a NYT-bestselling journalist covering the criminal trial of Donald Trump on 34 felonies in New York.

This thread explains why I’m warning people to be careful about assuming David Pecker’s testimony is true. Image
1/ For the full PROOF report, see below. The first two sections are free, the remainder free with the trial offer at the link. The report title: “What Longtime Trump Associate Pecker Doesn’t Want to Discuss Involves a Plot to Steal the 2016 Election.”

🔗: sethabramson.substack.com/p/what-longtim…
Image
2/ I’ll start with the CNN summary below. It covers the part of the Pecker testimony today involving topics neither Pecker *nor Trump* want the public to properly understand. The Pecker testimony on Stormy Daniels is actually much *less* charged, because Pecker was less involved. Image

The Supreme Court of the United States is literally deciding today whether Donald Trump can legally have them all executed on January 20, 2025, and the upshot I get from major media updates from inside the courtroom is that they are taking a serious look at it

America is over
One justice said—apparently without breaking out in maniacal laughter and requiring a straitjacket—that it may not be fair to a POTUS to judge his motive when he engages in an act

“Mens rea” has only been one half the analysis of whether a crime has been committed for 500 years
This country has descended into absolute madness and I think it is really important that journalists do absolutely nothing to normalize it

What is happening at the Supreme Court today is not normal or okay or consistent with American traditions in any respect

You’re getting *very warm*, James.

I said that this criminal trial is very much about illegal election interference, and I meant it. Per usual, the good guys are only telling about 10% of the story in order to not ruffle feathers. But America deserves the full truth about this.
Keep in mind Cohen didn't front the money to AMI for these ops. Not only did AMI outlay cash on the front end as Trump was ramping up his whirlwind introduction of Pecker to his Saudi pals, but there were times the cost was so high AMI balked. Then... suddenly they had the money.
The Saudis went almost directly from their meeting with Donald Trump Jr. in Trump Tower—where they asked the Trump family exactly how they could help illegally steal the election for Trump—to AMI, with whom they immediately developed a highly lucrative relationship (...for AMI).

(🔐) PROOF EXCLUSIVE: The Top 25 Issues With Trump’s $175M Bond—All Listed Here—Don’t Include the Two New Ones That Have Arisen Just Hours Before a Hearing That Could Determine the Future of His Empire

🔗:

It is so much worse than you thought. Please RT. sethabramson.substack.com/p/proof-exclus…
Image
1/ Most people have no idea how many problems there are with this bond.
2/ Most people do not realize that, even with Trump’s criminal trial starting in earnest tomorrow, the hearing with longer-term consequences happening in New York may well be Trump’s *civil* hearing (which he will not be able to attend). And there’s a very good reason for this.

Many Americans don’t know that, in legal shorthand, a criminal defendant is represented by the “Delta” symbol, a triangle (∆).

(Yes—really.)

Less well known—but now, due to the Trump trial, just as relevant—is the “sleeping defendant” symbol: a faded, sideways triangle (▷).
When a criminal defendant is awake but angry at having to face consequences for his crimes, it’s OK to use the Red Delta (🔺).

If a defendant is—like Trump—livid at facing consequences *and* “sundowning” during afternoon court sessions, use the *inverted* Red Delta instead (🔻).
What about a criminal defendant who’s at once feeling “sad,” “tired,” and “boxed in” by virtue of having to deal with the same criminal procedures as the average American citizen, whom he considers himself far better than? For this we use the rare Recumbent Boxed Blue Delta (▶️).
