Ramaswamy: NYC DA Alvin Bragg’s Lawfare Against Trump a ‘Bastardization of Our Legal System’

‘This case is obviously a corruption of the law. Lawfare,’ responds tech entrepreneur Elon Musk.

Former GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy laid out the circumstances that have culminated in ex-President Donald Trump’s unprecedented show trial over alleged hush money payments in New York City.

“Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg’s prosecution of Donald Trump and its trial begins today. What a joke,” began Ramaswamy, going on to detail how Bragg bypassed the statute of limitations by claiming Trump committed a felony, rather than a misdemeanor.

Alvin Bragg‘s case against Trump rests on the ludicrous legal premise that a candidate must use *campaign* funds to make personal hush money payments. Yet if Trump had done that, they’d undoubtedly be going after him for that. This isn’t the pursuit of justice, it’s a political… pic.twitter.com/PajtiLegIx

“It’s almost as though they decided this is the person we’re going to prosecute and then we’re going to figure out what we’re going to charge him with after the fact. Well, guess what? That’s exactly what happened.”

Ramaswamy went on to note the pursuit of criminal charges against Trump is purely political, as Bragg campaigned on “going after Donald Trump.”

“For what crime? We had no idea,” Ramaswamy stated. “Just the idea that they had to go after Donald Trump.”

“This is a politician keeping his campaign promise. That is a bastardization of our legal system. That’s not how we do things in the United States.”

The former GOP candidate pointed out the prosecution of Trump is eroding the very fabric of America.

“I think Trump is going to prevail. But most importantly, I hope we move beyond this phase of our history, where you have one political party that thinks it can use the legal system to prosecute its opponents. The same shoe can fit the other foot, and if we keep going down this direction, we’re not going to have a country left.”

Tech billionaire Elon Musk agreed with Ramawamy’s message on X, writing, “This case is obviously a corruption of the law. Lawfare.”

This case is obviously a corruption of the law.

Lawfare.

Musk’s message was highlighted by Trump on Truth Social:

Terrifying incident captured on film.

Disturbing footage out of North Carolina shows the moment a car thief turned deadly with a suspect using a vehicle to run over and kill a good samaritan who tried to stop the midday carjacking last month.

In the video, 38-year-old Jonathan Lecompte can be seen pointing a handgun at 28-year-old Ricky Driggers and yelling, “Don’t get in the goddamn truck, fool!”

When Driggers ignored the command and sat in the truck’s driver seat, Lecompte fired four shots at him as he backed up the vehicle.

Next, Lecompte shouted to bystanders, “Get out of the way, he’s gonna run into us!”

Several people went running, including Lecompte, but the truck was able to strike him and send him flying into the air.

Lecompte was taken to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead.

Driggers was later caught by police and is being charged with first-degree murder, attempted common law robbery, larceny of a motor vehicle and felony fleeing to elude.

Passengers Walk to Airport after Pro-Palestine Protesters Block Traffic into Chicago’s O’Hare

Footage shows dozens of tardy passengers forced to walk to airport by foot to try to make flights.

Travelers faced major delays Monday morning at Chicago’s O’Hare Airport after leftists holding a pro-Palestine protest blocked traffic, forcing many to ditch their ride-shares and walk to their terminals.

The protesters, demanding a ceasefire in Gaza, interlocked their hands and formed a human barrier blocking a ramp leading to O’Hare’s domestic terminals.

“Traffic came to a complete standstill right in the middle of rush-hour at one of the busiest airports in the country,” notes ABC 7 Chicago.

Watch: Massive Protests Erupt in Japan Over WHO’s Pandemic Treaty

“Our health is being used as a weapon, and now we’re in the midst of a third world war fought with information, questioning whether responsible adults are aware and able to protect themselves accordingly,” says Prof. Masayasu Inoue.

Tens of thousands of protesters swarmed the streets of Japan over the weekend to stand against the World Health Organization’s sweeping pandemic treaty.

The protests reportedly emerged in multiple locations on Saturday, including the “streets of Ikebukuro to the gatherings at Higashi-Ikebukuro Central Park”, with video showing the massive crowds peacefully protesting.

Speakers included Molecular Pathology Professor Masayasu Inoue and modern History Researcher Chikatsu Hayashi, who spoke out against the WHO, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and the medical establishment’s experimental COVID mRNA “genetic vaccines.”

From Aussie 17:

The protest not just opposed potential mandatory vaccinations but also the perceived overreach of health authorities and their ties with global pharma, echoing a distressing sentiment of disenfranchisement among the populace. Demonstrators criticized the lack of explanations for a sharp increase in excess deaths and demanded accountability and clarity on vaccine-related casualties.

Eminent speakers, including Professor Masayasu Inoue and modern history researcher Chikatsu Hayashi, provided compelling pre-demonstration speeches that laid bare the concerning dynamics between global health authorities and pharmaceutical agendas.

Professor Inoue highlighted the concerning trend of our health being weaponized in what he termed as “a third world war fought with information.” He urged the public to resist introducing genetic vaccines into their bodies, implicating a significant portion of WHO’s funding comes from pharmaceutical giants and private interests like the Bill Gates Foundation.

Prof. Masayasu Inoue’s impassioned speech highlighted how the COVID pandemic revealed a “third world war fought with information” and the introduction of genetic vaccines “means our health is being used as a weapon.”

“My message for today is about vaccines that use our genetics to make our bodies produce pathogens or proteins, even if they’re disguised as vaccines, for example, next could be influenza,” he told the crowd, according to Aussie 17.

“To everyone here, among friends and acquaintances, introducing genetic vaccines into the body should not be done, regardless of the type. Take this as the key message home; by doing so, I hope you can protect your children and grandchildren.”

“Upon investigation, over 85% of WHO’s budget turns out to be funded by pharmaceutical companies and stakeholders like Bill Gates Foundation, indicating that it’s being directed towards their interests,” he continued. “This means our health is being used as a weapon, and now we’re in the midst of a third world war fought with information, questioning whether responsible adults are aware and able to protect themselves accordingly.”

History Researcher Chikatsu Hayashi continued: “Let’s stop the third atomic bomb with our hands, in the hands of the Japanese people. Shall we not?”

We stand against WHO, global totalitarianism, pandemic treaties, submarine IHR, genetic vaccines, plandemic, control of information, and declare to eliminate all these. Figures such as Tedros, Gates, Schwab, Biden, representatives of the New World Order,” Hayashi added.

The WHO along with dozens of world leaders issued a statement last month demanding the accelerated development of a “multi-lateral agreement on pandemic preparedness and prevention.”

“A pandemic accord is critical to safeguard our collective future. Only a strong global pact on pandemics can protect future generations from a repeat of the COVID-19 crisis, which led to millions of deaths and caused widespread social and economic devastation, owing not least to insufficient international collaboration,” the leaders wrote in a joint letter.

But the letter is misleading in that it doesn’t address amendments to the International Health Regulations (IHR) that are being made in tandem with the Pandemic Treaty.

There is growing global opposition to the proposed accord and IHR amendments: Iran, New Zealand, Slovakia and the Netherlands recently rejected IHR amendments proposed in 2022, while in South Africa, a “WHO Withdrawal Bill” has been proposed.

Trump Lambasts ‘Crooked Joe’, Wars, Inflation, Green Agenda, Trannies & Illegal Aliens at Pennsylvania Rally

adminApr 15, 20246 min read
Donald Trump spoke about the many failures of Democrats during the speech, coining the term ‘Crooked Joe Biden’, but offered a brighter future under his leadership.

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump delivered an hour-long speech in Schnecksville, Pennsylvania Saturday night to a massive crowd of 42,000 where he discussed the dire straights America has found itself in under the current administration and what he would do to make America great again.

“They want to silence me because I will never let them silence you and in the end they’re not after me, they’re after you, and I just happen to be standing in their way and I always will be in their way,” Trump said.

The 45th President showed the Pennsylvania crowed a chart on a large screen depicting the massive increase in illegal aliens entering the U.S. under Joe Biden, labeling it as a ‘rocket ship of illegal immigrants’ saying many of the people coming don’t even know the names of the countries they come from.

“They’re sending prisoners, murderers, drug dealers, mental patients and terrorists, the worst anywhere in the world,” Trump said. “People are coming from the Congo…where do you live in the Congo, we live in prison, oh that’s right they released them from prison…but they’re coming in from Africa.”

The former president also discussed the transgender takeover of women’s sports, covering the story of a world class female swimmer who was about to break a record until she faced a man in competition.

“…but then she looked to her very right…and there was this giant human being, a man that about three weeks before was a man, but now he’s a woman,” Trump said.

The Republican candidate said he will have the wars that started under Biden ended immediately under his presidency to avoid nuclear war.

“I will have the horrible war between Russia and Ukraine totally settled, I will settle it, and I’m the only one who can say this because these other people have no clue, I will prevent World War Three,” Trump said.

Trump began his speech by wishing prayers and blessings to Israel, chronicling the failures of President Joe Biden, which he referred to as weak on foreign policy, immigration, energy, and geopolitics.

“To think about what we have to go through and the things we put up with, with at the border, with the no energy independence, with all electric cars, would everybody like to buy an electric car for the rest of your life,” Trump asks the crowed, which erupted with an resounding ‘no’.

The former president discussed how he will bring back what has been taken away under the Biden presidency.

“We will return the world to peace-through-strength and it will happen very quickly, we will revive American strength abroad and we will restore American strength at home, we were respected 4 years ago all over the world, today we are considered a joke,” he said. “It’s not going to be for long, believe me.”

Trump said that if he’s elected America will quickly restore its economy to the greatest in the world, while also citing inflation under Biden and the constantly changing story coming from the Democrat president.

“First of all Crooked Joe claimed inflation was transitory, remember that, then he said it was temporary, then he said it won’t happen, it really won’t happen, and then he said well it’s much higher than expected, and then the supply chains closed, and then the energy went through the roof,” Trump said.

He went on to say that all of America knows the real blame for the bad economy lies with one man, Joe Biden. Trump also went over price increases on energy and fuel under Biden, promising to end the inflation and put a stop to The Green New Deal which he labeled as The Green New Scam, a hoax.

“On day one I will terminate Crooked Joe’s insane electric vehicle mandate, gone, day one, that’s going to happen on day one,” Trump said.

The 45th president pivoted into how U.S. liberties are being curtailed, mentioning how the Second Amendment is being eviscerated under Biden and promising it won’t be under him.

“We’re the ones who are fighting to save our democracy and Crooked Joe Biden is the demented tyrant, he’s the demented tyrant who’s trying to destroy our democracy,” Trump said, later going on to talk about how Biden can’t speak, walk and almost fell out of a helicopter.

He also discussed the upcoming trial against him which he labeled a ‘Biden trial’.

“Fully gagged before a highly conflicted and corrupt judge that suffers from TDS, does anyone know what TDS is? Correct, Trump Derangement Syndrome,” he said to the raucous crowd.

“But like all true communist show trials, this is what you call a communist show trial, and we’re going communist, don’t kid yourself,” the former president said, which elicited the chant ‘we love Trump’.

The Republican presidential hopeful discussed the stolen 2020 election and warned of election theft in 2024, saying that we need a landslide victory that’s too big to rig.

“Now they cheat like hell and when you see them cheating you get out there and start screaming, start screaming,” Trump said. “The racial left Democrats rigged the presidential election in 2020 and we’re not going to allow them to rig the presidential election of 2024.”

The presidential candidate finished up by calling the 2024 election ‘the final battle’.

“We’re ready to be a failed nation, we’re a failed nation right now,” Trump said.

The Personal Really Is Political

Our identity is more than just a series of badges we wear

“Unpopular opinion: mind your business and leave the guy alone.”

That was professor Peter Boghossian, whom you may know for his role in the “grievance studies affair” with James Lindsay and Helen Pluckrose. He was offering his two cents on Twitter about a story I covered for Infowars on Saturday: the Spanish politician outed as a gross sexual deviant when videos of him eating his own feces off the floor ended up on social media.

Until March 27, when he was relieved of his duties, Daniel Gómez del Barrio was a representative of the country’s ruling left-wing Spanish Socialist Workers’ Party in the council for the sleepy town of Illescas. What’s more, he was the council’s head of the local Department of Youth, Children and the Family.

Imagine that.

Spanish news website El Diario described how del Barrio “offered himself on social networks as a ‘despicable sexual slave.’” He also requested to be “humiliated and used as a urinal.”

For liberals, eating your own feces on camera is just a valid lifestyle choice like any other, and should be no bar to holding public office. pic.twitter.com/NYs7IH8EDZ

— RAW EGG NATIONALIST (@Babygravy9) April 14, 2024

Peter Boghossian seems to believe he’s in a minority when he states that what people do in the privacy of their own bedrooms is a matter solely for their own concern and should have no bearing on their public standing whatsoever.

Except he’s wrong. It’s not an “unpopular opinion” at all.

Truth is, the notion that sexuality, and identity more broadly, is simply a badge or series of badges we wear is one of the abiding pathologies of modern liberalism and modern life. Every aspect of our personality can simply be put on or taken off at will. Nothing stays, nothing sticks, nothing carries over from one aspect of our lives to the next.

Put it on, take it off.

You’re a “despicable sex slave” at home, and an upstanding pillar of the community, a man with the right moral instincts to protect children and families, as soon as the key turns in the door and you’re off to work.

Unless, of course, you’re one of the two congressional staffers caught having sex in the Capitol back in December, in which case you definitely take your sexual proclivities with you to work.

But that was just an aberration right?

We’ve heard this so many times before. It was precisely the language that was used in the late 1970s and early 1980s by the gay-rights movement. “What happens between two consenting adults in the bedroom is between them and them alone.”

Or, rather, what happens in the unlit rooms and strappado-chambers of the San Francisco bath-houses is between the two or 20 or 200 men involved and them alone.

Actually, most people didn’t even know what the bath-houses were or what kind of things were going on in them. It would have been better if they had. Then they’d have had a better idea of what to expect twenty, thirty or even, now, forty years down the line. Instead, heterosexual allies of the gay-rights movement thought homosexual men were campaigning for the right to be in monogamous, loving relationships—and how could anybody object to that?

If you want to know more about this clever switcheroo, I’d point you in the direction of Randy Schilts’ classic book about the early days of the AIDS epidemic, And the Band Played On. Schilts, an openly gay man himself, drew huge criticism from the gay community for breaking the gay omerta on the bathhouses.

The moral of that story: Beware anybody who tells you slippery slopes aren’t real. They’re greasing the slope as they speak.

The notion of durable identity—of character, to use an old-fashioned term—has really taken a beating over the last hundred years. As well as fashionable literary and philosophical theories imported from the madrassas of Paris, home-grown notions have done their part too.

Stanley Milgram dealt a grievous blow with his famous electro-shock experiments, the results of which were published in his 1974 book Obedience to Authority. Millgram was able to persuade ordinary people to administer what they thought were fatal electric shocks to other people, simply by having people in lab-coats tell them to do so. The implication was that all it took for “nice people” to become brainless automatons that could be programmed to kill, was the presence of authority. The world was shocked, but maybe a little less shocked than it would have been had World War II not happened.

What’s interesting about the Milgram experiments isn’t necessarily that so many people could be convinced to “kill” to curry favour with authority figures, but that so many couldn’t. In actual fact, what deserves explaining in the Milgram experiments is precisely not why so many did “kill”, but why so many didn’t.

Why?

The answer is… character. People do have durable identities and personalities. They do carry themselves with them wherever they go. Yes, some people may have weak character, and bend easily when pressure is applied, but others don’t. They know who and what they are.

They know what is right and what is wrong.

This isn’t just the story of the Milgram experiments. It’s the story of the pandemic too: of all the brave people who risked their jobs and livelihoods, who risked social ostracism and were shunned by their families, who refused to be compelled to bargain with the government for their god-given rights as sovereign individuals.

It’s the story of social life, full stop.

So when someone says to me, “Mind your own business about that politician’s personal life,” I say, “No, I don’t think I will.” The personal really is political.
