So all 34 counts of the indictment were "falsifying business records in the first degree".

On February 14, he (allegedly) received an invoice from Cohen, recorded that invoice in the "detailed general ledger", and wrote a check for that invoice. That is FOUR separate counts. Why is it four when you only even have three verbs? Because every ledger transaction is actually two lines (you debit one account and credit another), so when he posted the invoice, his financial management system automatically created two offsetting transactions. So that's two separate counts!

On March 17, he (allegedly) made a copy of the invoice, recorded the invoice in the "detailed general ledger", and issued a check.

On June 19, he (allegedly) received an invoice, made an entry in his records about the invoice, made an entry in the detailed general ledger entries, wrote another check, recorded the check in the detailed general ledger entries, and wrote another check

On May 22 (not sure why we are going out of order), he (allegedly), received an invoice, made a detail general ledger entry, and wrote a check.

This takes us about halfway through and exceeds my attention span.

In New York, falsifying a business record is normally a misdemeanor, unless you do it to hide another crime. Notably absent from the indictment is the other crime they claim he falsified the business record to hide.

And it's farcical to think that Trump has anything whatsoever to do with creating the "detailed general ledger" entries.

Trump Gets Good News About Stormy Daniels Case While in Court
BY NICK REYNOLDS ON 4/04/23 AT 5:15 PM EDT

Facing 34 felony counts in the investigation of hush money payments to onetime adult-film star Stormy Daniels, former President Donald Trump's camp likely welcomed some positive news after spending Tuesday afternoon in a Manhattan courtroom.

He didn't have to wait long. At the same time Trump and his legal team prepared their defense, Trump's attorneys on the other side of the country in California learned Daniels—the star witness in Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's case—might owe him some money. A lot of it.

Shortly after the allegations of hush money became public, Daniels filed a defamation suit against then-President Donald Trump after he posted a tweet questioning Daniels' story of being threatened to keep quiet about an alleged affair between them.

Daniels—then working with disgraced attorney Michael Avenatti—claimed an unknown man had threatened her in 2011 in a Las Vegas, Nevada, parking lot to keep quiet about the alleged intimate relationship she'd had with the former president. A hush money payment followed, by former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen, who testified that he paid it on the ex-president's behalf.

After Avenatti released an artist's sketch depicting the man who Daniels said threatened her, Twitter user posted a side-by-side comparison of Daniels' ex-husband and the alleged attacker. Trump responded: "A sketch years later about a nonexistent man. A total con job, playing the Fake News Media for Fools (but they know it)!"

Daniels then filed a lawsuit against Trump in California. The judge ultimately found Trump was merely expressing his opinion when he posted the tweet, and ordered Daniels to reimburse him $300,000 in legal fees.

Daniels announced her intention to fight back, tweeting: "I will go to jail before I pay a penny."

On Tuesday, the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit ruled Daniels would be required to compensate Trump roughly $122,000 in additional attorney fees, piling onto the hundreds of thousands she'd already owed him from previous proceedings.

The ruling was celebrated on social media by Harmeet Dhillon, Trump's attorney in the case and former Republican National Committee chairwoman candidate, who had defended him in a number of cases brought by Daniels.

"Congratulations to President Trump on this final attorney fee victory in his favor this morning," wrote Dhillon. "Collectively, our firm obtained over $600,000 in attorney fee awards in his favor in the meritless litigation initiated by Stormy Daniels."

Newsweek has contacted the offices of Daniels' attorney, Corey Brewster, for comment.

Trump still faces an array of litigation in the coming months. In addition to the hush money case in Manhattan, the Department of Justice is investigating the classified documents from his time as president that were found in his Mar-a-Lago home in Florida, as well as a series of probes into efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election.

Trump also faces a series of investigations into his various corporate enterprises, led by Bragg and New York State Attorney General Letitia James.

The sham was having a loser president who made up a bunch of BS on why he didn't actually lose the election, try to find a way to have his VP arbitrarily keep him in power, gin up a bunch of mental midgets to disrupt said transition by fatally "protesting" his BS election lost....... And a party of political losers (there's those dreaded "politics" voted to keep him eligible to being their "leader" again.

We live in a dumb country. I'm sorry you're still offended men can marry men, etc., but you're all idiots.

Ah. The only idiot here is you. A very useful one at that. It’s a complete sham of a prosecution and it IS a political hit job. Show me the man, I’ll show you the crime.

I’ve posted what I think about what BOM did after the election and have posted what I think about the man on here tons of times, but like other deranged morons on this board who swallow the MoT narrative as gospel and believe them to be purveyors of ultimate truth, you ignore my thought and toss out shiRt as quoted above.

You are a miserable lot….you and your ilk. I’m sorry you believe men can be women and play in women’s sports. I’m sorry you think drag shows and sexualization of children is a good thing. Groomer. The fact you even believe this was about ghey mirage in the first place shows exactly how much of a Useful Idiot you are.

[BigDave]

It’s also a farce to think that Trump didn’t get his team to do that under his direction.

Come on BD.

You're in HR. Do you ever use the financial software like Quickbooks?

I don't know what financial software Trump uses, but the accounting firm that fired him in 2022 - Mazars USA - is a big Microsoft partner for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations - https://www.mazars.us/Home/Services/Con ... cs-365-ERP

So it seems distinctly likely since the accounting firm was an F&O partner that F&O is the software that the Trump organization uses.

This is somebody's video of entering a non-PO invoice in F&O and taking it through the payment process - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZdYv_hQg18

(They are actually using the invoice journal, or a kind of "quick entry" for invoices. For a simple invoice from Cohen, that's probably what they would use. There is a more detailed invoice you can enter if, say, you received an invoice for five truckloads of stuff and you have 500 lines on the invoice that you have to reconcile with all of the products you received in all of the shipments.)

The "detailed general ledger" entries are created automatically when you post the invoice (~1:06 in the video). Nobody deliberately chose to do that. In fact, you CANNOT edit the "detailed general ledger" for obvious reasons - you can post your transaction and then it is forever enshrined in the general ledger. If you realize you made a mistake, you have to post a correcting transaction - you cannot edit the general ledger entries.

Now, all of this is going to come out in the trial, but I'm assuming that that they are going to say is that there is some piece of data on this invoice entry screen that they entered "fraudulently" - they put in an incorrect description, an incorrect internal billing code, or whatever it is.

I just can't see Trump having enough knowledge about this stuff to even be able to instruct someone to put the fraudulent code or whatever into the system.

[HokieJoe]

So all 34 counts of the indictment were "falsifying business records in the first degree".

On February 14, he (allegedly) received an invoice from Cohen, recorded that invoice in the "detailed general ledger", and wrote a check for that invoice. That is FOUR separate counts. Why is it four when you only even have three verbs? Because every ledger transaction is actually two lines (you debit one account and credit another), so when he posted the invoice, his financial management system automatically created two offsetting transactions. So that's two separate counts!

On March 17, he (allegedly) made a copy of the invoice, recorded the invoice in the "detailed general ledger", and issued a check.

The sham was having a loser president who made up a bunch of BS on why he didn't actually lose the election, try to find a way to have his VP arbitrarily keep him in power, gin up a bunch of mental midgets to disrupt said transition by fatally "protesting" his BS election lost....... And a party of political losers (there's those dreaded "politics" voted to keep him eligible to being their "leader" again.

We live in a dumb country. I'm sorry you're still offended men can marry men, etc., but you're all idiots.

The sham is dumbfvcks who are willing to burn the country down to geeiiitt Trump. F those people.

This.

Law in this country has been asymmetrical for quite a while. No country can sustain that and survive.

None of these people seem to have ever read To Kill A Mockingbird, or if they did, did not understand it. Protecting someone from the law because he's white has been replaced with protecting someone from the law because he's a leftist. Going after someone unfairly because he's "a negro" has been replaced with going after someone unfairly because he's a Republican.

“I think there's just one kind of folks. Folks.”

“Real courage is when you know you're licked before you begin, but you begin anyway and see it through no matter what.”

“It’s never an insult to be called what somebody thinks is a bad name. It just shows you how poor that person is, it doesn’t hurt you.”

"We know all men are not created equal in the sense some people would have us believe- some people are smarter than others, some people have more opportunity because they're born with it, some men make more money than others, some ladies make better cakes than others- some people are born gifted beyond the normal scope of men.
But there is one way in this country in which all men are created equal- there is one human institution that makes a pauper the equal of a Rockefeller, the stupid man the equal of an Einstein, and the ignorant man the equal of any college president. That institution, gentlemen, is a court.”

Someone will come along and suggest I'm comparing Trump to Tom Robinson; I'm not.
Just the left's (and dRuMpF~! types) disregard for what they're doing to the law. So illiberal in the classical sense of what that word used to mean.

But, no matter.

So all 34 counts of the indictment were "falsifying business records in the first degree".

On February 14, he (allegedly) received an invoice from Cohen, recorded that invoice in the "detailed general ledger", and wrote a check for that invoice. That is FOUR separate counts. Why is it four when you only even have three verbs? Because every ledger transaction is actually two lines (you debit one account and credit another), so when he posted the invoice, his financial management system automatically created two offsetting transactions. So that's two separate counts!

On March 17, he (allegedly) made a copy of the invoice, recorded the invoice in the "detailed general ledger", and issued a check.

On June 19, he (allegedly) received an invoice, made an entry in his records about the invoice, made an entry in the detailed general ledger entries, wrote another check, recorded the check in the detailed general ledger entries, and wrote another check

On May 22 (not sure why we are going out of order), he (allegedly), received an invoice, made a detail general ledger entry, and wrote a check.

This takes us about halfway through and exceeds my attention span.

In New York, falsifying a business record is normally a misdemeanor, unless you do it to hide another crime. Notably absent from the indictment is the other crime they claim he falsified the business record to hide.

And it's farcical to think that Trump has anything whatsoever to do with creating the "detailed general ledger" entries.

The trumptards tried to do that on the election is J6. But dumbphucks just think it was a run of the mill riot.

No dumbphuques ignore the timeline of events, pretend jSiX was so surprising then misattribute the issues to serve their craven political purposes.

Nope… dumbphucks think that J6 happened without Trump instigating it.

Yep. Dumbphuques think jAySiX
was only Trump's fault. A truly idiotic take without basis in reality.

Dumbphuques try to avoid the fact that they cheered while unelected bureaucrats and detestable phuques in Congress cooked up bogus charges to get rid of a duly elected POTUS. Cheered while their government censored people. And cheers for a Soros stooge who tries to interfere in national politics.

Yep, dumbphuques with the emotional capacity of children with matches.

Bringing this back around, ...

The cost, however, to the legal system will be immense. In a single indictment, Alvin Bragg bulldozed any high ground that the Democrats had after January 6th. He has fulfilled the narrative of the Trump campaign by supplying a raw and undeniable example of the politicization of the legal system. What is most shocking is that this attack on the rule of law was met with the rapturous applause of many, including lawyers and legal pundits. They not only will ignore the affront to the integrity of our legal system, but celebrate its demise.

While some of us have warned that Mar-a-Lago could present a serious threat to Trump, we have warned that the Bragg prosecution is the denial of the core legal principle of blind justice. This expensive, drawn out effort would not have occurred for anyone other than Donald Trump. It is not just selective prosecution, it is exclusive prosecution for Trump and Trump alone.
