Klasfeld:

Engoron comments on the ruling in open court:

"I intend to enforce the gag orders rigorously and vigorously, and I want to make sure counsel inform their clients."

👉🏼Trump's attorney Chris Kise says he's aware and adds:👇🏼

"It’s a tragic day for the rule of law. https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/ViewDocument?docIndex=2yAOg8Zx5CTVK5fRESuAVA==

@GottaLaff It's a tragic day when a lawyer doesn't know what the 'rule of law' actually is.

CivilityFan,
@CivilityFan@sfba.social avatar

@snarkyboy @GottaLaff He knows what the rule of law is, he’s just performing for his client. His client is just performing for his base. His base doesn’t give 2 cents for the rule of law if it obstructs their vision of a Christian nation

snarkyboy,
@snarkyboy@mastodon.social avatar

@CivilityFan @GottaLaff Last I checked, "performing for your client" isn't among the attorneys' duties to their client. Respecting the court and due process is, however.

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@snarkyboy Spot on. But Trump only hires those who perform for him. @CivilityFan

@GottaLaff
Well, the defendant certainly has found himself an attorney who is a true reflection of himself and I'm not talking about flattery.

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@pg1958 That’s why he hired him

@GottaLaff Oh, cry me an effin' river, Kise! If your client were any average person in this country, he'd already be cooling his heels in lockup for contempt of court.

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@TomShafShafer Well, come on, this is why Trump hired him 😉

@jonberger@sfba.social avatar

@GottaLaff My crystal ball says he'll violate it from the stand. He starts testifying next week, right? I predict an outburst about the clerk, right there with the court reporter taking it all down. Let's see if I'm right.

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@jonberger Or he’ll just lie a lot.

tadbithuman,

@GottaLaff @jonberger he would lie a lot anyway. You know the bad generalization about lawyers lying when their lips are moving, the Orange Menace lies even when he is 'thinking'.

@GottaLaff

Abusing the law is all Trump is good at

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@solownh Oh, he’s good at abusing people too.

3/ Via emptywheel:

Note: The reinstated gag in NY only covers Judge Engoron's clerk. It does not cover him or -- Trump's latest target -- Engoron's spouse.

So expect a non-stop attack on Engoron's spouse in retaliation for the gag reinstatement.

@tdwllms1@mstdn.social avatar

@GottaLaff

I also expect Engoron may add a gag on trumps abuse towards Engoron's spouse... she is in no way a part of this case. But maybe not.

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@tdwllms1 I hope he does.

1dalm,
@1dalm@deacon.social avatar

@GottaLaff

I would bet money that Trump is going to violate this thing in the next 24 hours. Trump knows he's losing his case in this court. He thinks his only play is to bait the judge into doing something that Trump could hang a "biased judge" accusation on him.

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@1dalm That's the consensus

legalquilts,
@legalquilts@mstdn.party avatar

@GottaLaff I saw the attack on the spouse. She inserted herself into the discussion. So I am a little less concerned about that. Like him, all she had to do was -- not talk.

But I also don't believe he will ever suffer repercussions when he DOES violate the new gag order.

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@legalquilts Nope:

Adam Klasfeld

NEWS

New York State court system's official representative debunks Trump's false claims about the judge's wife:

“Justice Engoron’s wife has sent no social media posts regarding the former president. They are not hers.”

legalquilts,
@legalquilts@mstdn.party avatar

@GottaLaff I stand corrected.

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@legalquilts : ) Glad to help

@GottaLaff

Kise is a fucking moron.. seriously, his law career is over except for dolts like trump.

especially lawyers.

lexi,

@tdwllms1 @GottaLaff i think corrupt lawyers don't start out that way mostly - those real opportunities to prove ones integrity only occur during the course of their career - situational choices often forced upon them

so i get serious old-white-boys-club vibes from the lack of self reflection and regulation by proactively seeking out those who place mission or money before integrity

can you repeat the claims you made in court with a straight face again? it's a low bar but with actual standards

tdwllms1,
@tdwllms1@mstdn.social avatar

@lexi

Yes, that's pretty much his M.O. worked for Crist, worked for DeSantis... republican supporter... ran for office as a republican..

@GottaLaff

JaneDoeTheFirst,

@GottaLaff

All nonsense coming out of that MAGAt Kise's mouth is political speech. Rule of law trashed by a lawyer. With a megaphone. Goebbels would be proud.

tfg’s lawyers are as bad as he is. I guess that’s why he hired them

GottaLaff,

@PandaChronicle He hires only people who will do his bidding

alexf24,
@alexf24@mstdn.social avatar

@GottaLaff Big deal. Worthless unless enforced.

GottaLaff,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@alexf24 Big deal? So if they didn't reinstate it, no biggie? How about being glad they did and waiting to see what happens?
