A New York court has found former president Donald J. Trump guilty on 34 felonies in connection utilizing a fixer to commit tax and business fraud to silence a potentially damaging victim during the 2016 presidential elections.

Sentencing is set for July 11th. The former president will be held under Secret Service protection at Rikers Island prison till that date.

Donald Trump is the first US President to be accused and successfully tried for felony charges.

The bread and circuses of the empire continue to work as intended. Democrats rejoice as if this has single-handedly saved the world, and reactionaries fume that their outwardly fascist figurehead has faced a tiny percentage of the consequences for his actions.

    We can objectively say that in the US it’s a greater crime to pay hush money to a sex worker, than it is to assassinate a leader of a nuclear-armed country. 👍
