Why the Stormy Daniels Case is BS
The Manhattan District Attorney's legal case involving Donald Trump and Stormy Daniels represents a tortured application of state law designed for a political prosecution. Rich breaks down how converting misdemeanor falsification of business records into thirty-four felony counts relies on an unprecedented, dynamic legal theory that purports to enforce federal election laws through a local district attorney’s office. Unpacking how Alvin Bragg's prosecution stretches local statutes beyond recognition while ignoring jurisdictional limits, Rich explains why weaponizing the judicial system to target a political opponent sets a dangerous precedent for American legal norms and constitutional order.
