That filthy, filthy Dem Swamp!

Trump lawyer Alina Habba said she was unaware Manhattan federal Judge Lewis Kaplan and Carroll’s lawyer Roberta Kaplan worked together in the early 1990s at the same powerhouse white-shoe law firm until Saturday, when asked about it by Post columnist Charles Gasparino, who was told by a source that the judge was once Roberta Kaplan’s “mentor.

“It was never disclosed. It’s insane and so incestuous...”

“This is news to us,” she continued. “We are going to include this in our appeal and take appropriate measures. The fact it wasn’t disclosed is an ethics violation.”

... a former Paul Weiss partner who asked not to be named said like all associates at the firm, Roberta Kaplan did her best to distinguish herself before partners, including Lewis Kaplan.

Messages left with Judge Kaplan’s chambers and a rep for Paul Weiss were not returned Saturday.
No kiddin. Bahahahahahahahahahaha.

Haha haha ha, ahhhhhhhhhhh!

No ethics in trashing Trump? No problem! Keehee hoo.

Filthy, filthy, murky Swamp.

Now, the unfairness of the judge's rulings make even more sense.

    And this is such a simple thing. There's almost a 100% chance they judge shopped, which isn't supposed to be done either.

    This makes two of the trumpster cases with conflicts of interest "problems" that could easily call mistrials. That would set the trials back a couple of years while "prosecution" gets it's "stuff" together.

    Oh E'FFING well..... These are making mockeries of out court system and shows how desperate they are to make it illegal for trumpster to run. Po's right though, if trumpster dies from "lead poisoning" there could be questions on who got him to "ingest" it.


  2. by HatetheSwamp on January 28, 2024 4:46 am

    And, Curt and his Holy Trinity claim not to understand how Trump pulls further and further ahead of the Doddering Old Fool every time he loses in Court!


  3. by oldedude on January 28, 2024 7:37 am
    Especially with the legal improprieties that are being dug up. It seems the dims don't care the constitution. But we already knew that.

    It's like the dims actually want trumpster to win. Otherwise they wouldn't do the really stupid stuff... You'd think they would at least try to hide the illegal issues when the picked what to "charge." They have to have the trial "massaged" for them to win.


  4. by HatetheSwamp on January 28, 2024 8:01 am

    It's like the dims actually want trumpster to win.

    I wondered about that, too, as crazy as it sounds. It's a no-brainer that Curt's Holy Trinity, i.e., the NYT, MSNBC, the HuffPo want that. As soon as they lose Trump, they're dead, financially.

    I'm trying to see how that works for the Dem Party. My theory is that it's the Swamp that needs Trump, especially the SwampDems. How much money have the DNC and the Doddering Old Fool raised lately? $BBBBBBBBillions.

    Maybe. They're counting on the ballot harvesting and ballot curing and diddling with mail-in ballots in November. Maybe they want Trump for four more years.

    You realize it was a jury trial, right? The jury decided on the amount. For the appeal to be successful there needs to be identifiable judicial misconduct. It is no surprise that high-end lawyers cross paths in the upper levels of the New York legal community.


  6. by oldedude on January 28, 2024 8:47 am
    And the closeness of their relationship is required to be disclosed to defense. It wasn't. And no one recused themselves. That's the violation. Mis-trial coming up.

    Do you realize that the judge's anti-Trump bias has been at issue since the opening gavel, eh!!!!!?


  9. by Curt_Anderson on January 28, 2024 9:39 am
    So if you guys are right and there is cause for a mistrial, Trump gets be tried for rape sexual assault and defamation AGAIN. That’s a win for Trump?!

    You're half right. If there is a cause for mistrial, he gets a second trial. I'm not willing to say if that's good or bad for trumpster. Could be worse. AND if that's shown, the judge and the lawyer are chastised by the bar association. "chastised" is a pretty open word, which is why I used it. It could be a "halt or we'll say halt again" through admonishment, through (doubtful) disbarment. My bet isn't on any of those. I don't know the records of either of them, nor do I care beyond they shoulda known better.

    Cut to Fani Willis: Republicans are turning up the pressure on Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis following an accusation that she has engaged in an improper relationship with the special prosecutor leading the election subversion case against former President Donald Trump and some of his allies.
    Still a conflict of interest. Same may happen. Georgia's state Senate joined attempts to investigate Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis on Friday, voting 30-19 to create a special committee that Republican senators say is needed to determine whether the Democratic district attorney misspent state tax money in her prosecution of former President Donald Trump and others.

    Curt,

    This was not a criminal trial.

    And, based on recent history,... politically,... apparently, it is a win for Trump.

    As of the moment, Trump has left Joe in his dust. He's waaaaaaaaaay ahead in the polls.

    po,

    Take that up with Curt.

    This is a civil suit. And,... you are the former Supreme Court clerk. Maybe that's your point, I dunno.

    Your $83,333,333.33?! Ain't happnin.

    But. Look for the Despicable One to be seen as an even more sympathetic figure among moderates and independents who can discern your derangement.

    Habba will lose again.

    Lose what, po?

    What are the lefties at Forbes magazine reporting?


    Forbes Staff
    Updated Jan 30, 2024, 11:43am EST
    Former President Donald Trump’s attorney Alina Habba argued in a court filing Monday that the judge overseeing writer E. Jean Carroll’s defamation trial against Trump had a conflict that resulted in Carroll receiving “preferential treatment” —but legal experts say she’s unlikely to succeed, and Carroll’s attorney has denied the “baseless allegations.”



    Even if the lawyer and judge did have a professional relationship, legal experts said Habba’s argument was unlikely to work: CNN legal analyst and former prosecutor Elie Honig called Habba’s argument “bogus” and noted on the network Monday that judges having connections to lawyers is commonplace, saying, “Every judge in that courthouse knows, socializes with, has worked with, sometimes maybe mentored, dozens, hundreds of attorneys in this city … That is not enough for a conflict of interest.”

    Attorney Andrew Fleischman tweeted, “No competent lawyer in the world thinks this motion has a shot,” while former U.S. attorney Joyce Vance noted Habba has previously said Supreme Court justices who Trump appointed should be loyal to him, “But sure, go ahead and complain that a judge and a lawyer were briefly at the same firm and pretend that's a conflict.”

    I think the question will be if Judge Kaplan failed to provide Trump with a fair hearing of the facts.

    Based on pb's Three Legal Goobers, the answer is a no-brainer yes. Was his previous relationship with with Ms Carroll’s legal team responsible? Perhaps.

    But, Curt, is your TrumpHate so deranged that you think this judgment will stand?


  18. by Curt_Anderson on January 30, 2024 10:42 am
    Yes, I think the judgment will stand. I think any defendant who acted out in court like he did would get a similar verdict, and probably some time in jail for his courtroom antics. Especially with that sort of incompetent defense. Between the two of them the judge and jury were not impressed.

    I don’t know when he has to decide to appeal or pay Ms. Carroll.


  19. by HatetheSwamp on January 30, 2024 10:50 am

    We all bring our preferences and prejudices to every moment of our lives. It's what we when we don't get what we want that's the issue, and you may be right,... but I'll go with pb's three Legal Goobers.


  20. by Curt_Anderson on January 30, 2024 10:55 am
    Ok, I’ll go with all the other lawyers who have opined on Trump’s chances of a successful appeal.


  21. by HatetheSwamp on January 30, 2024 11:27 am

    I'm assuming that you are joshin this time. Remember? You recently used a statement by pb's Legal Goober #2 to bolster your opinion about the Mayorkas impeachment.

    The difference between pb and y'nes is that pb doesn't opinion shop. He seeks truth.


  22. by Curt_Anderson on January 30, 2024 11:38 am
    I have no reason to believe that your favorite legal pundits think Trump will successful in appeal. Link?

    I linked to Forbes and they reported on the many lawyers who do not believe Trump would be successful in appeal.

    Attorney Andrew Fleischman tweeted, “No competent lawyer in the world thinks this motion has a shot”… I assume that would include at least some of the lawyers you like to cite.


  23. by HatetheSwamp on January 30, 2024 11:51 am

    As I've said, #3 writes so professionally that he's hard to quote but here's a start: "...I think the damage award of over $83 million is ridiculously inflated..."

    As you'll see if you read, $3 is as seriously anti MAGA as anyone can be.

  24. by Curt_Anderson on January 30, 2024 12:10 pm
    You are right, McCarthy does not write clearly. He has a hard time making a point. He was an attorney?

    He concluded with:
    As much as you may believe Trump has been wronged here — and I think the damage award of over $83 million is ridiculously inflated — this is what it is going to be like for the next nine months, every day, if Republicans nominate Trump.

    There is still time for even Trump sympathizers to realize how likely it is that nominating Trump means electing Biden. But time is short.


  25. by HatetheSwamp on January 30, 2024 12:18 pm

    Holy, as po'd say, EFFIN$#!T, Curt!

    Listen to the first segment of the gay Guy you never heard of on today's show! He hates Trump... and he's shredding both trials into confetti.

    Oyfriggingfreakinvey!


  26. by Curt_Anderson on January 30, 2024 1:03 pm
    Sheesh, HtS. I expressed doubts that any competent lawyer think Habba has a good argument (conflict of interest) for appeal. I linked lawyers who agree me. You claim some agree with you, Trump and Habba but you don’t link to relevant sites quoting these lawyers.
