Trump Ally HEADED to TRIAL after Judge REFUSES to Delay Further - Legal AF



Trump co-conspirator Steve Bannon tried desperately to avoid a NY state criminal trial for fraud and money laundering where he faces 5-8 years in a sentence, but a NY judge rejected his attempts to postpone the trial further, setting a hard date of Feb 25th to get the jury trial underway. Michael Popok is @ The Intersection to explain from a trial lawyer perspective what happens next. - 11/18/2024.

Let him have it but I guess they said they had more evidence to submit. I am so fucking sick of this.

All of these anti-democratic felons who persist in breaking the laws should have been behind bars years ago - especially TFG! And he was disqualified from running for any public office by Constitutional Amendment 14, Section 3, after attempting to overthrow the U.S. government!

I hope Bannon gets sentenced to at least 5 years in prison

I like this guy Michael Popek (Legal AF) & his video.
(I just subscribed to his YouTube channel for free)

And TFG can't "pardon" him again, since these are not federal charges. He apparently learned nothing from his recent prison sentence.
