New York City's Rikers Island is prepared if former President Donald Trump is ordered to serve time in jail amid his unprecedented trial in Manhattan, Mayor Eric Adams said Tuesday.

"Our amazing commissioner … is prepared for whatever comes on Rikers Island," Adams told the media Tuesday when asked if Rikers, New York City's largest prison, is prepared if Trump is ordered to jail for violating a gag order imposed during the trial.

"I'm pretty sure [the Department of Corrections commissioner] would be prepared to manage and deal with the situation. As you see what's happening with Harvey Weinstein, we have to just you know, in this business, particularly around law enforcement, we have to adjust whatever comes our way," he continued. 

"We don't want to deal with a hypothetical, but they're professionals that will be ready."

It does  not take a body language expert to know Melania and Trump have not touched each other in years. White house staff said they slept in separate beds.

It is not even a secret anymore that Melania has a alleged relationship with Hank Siemers, head of security at Tiffany's for years now. He moved into an apt in the Trump Tower  Donald knows about him and does not care. His marriage to Melania is one of convenience.


One day I expect many more women will come out of the woodwork that had sexual relations with Trump..or maybe not. Would you want to let it be known you had sex with Trump and become another Lewinski joke?

??? What does Trump's relationship with his wife have to do with anything????  So they sleep in different beds?  Many happy couples to do for various reasons.

???? First I've heard of Melania having an affair and again what does that have to do with this case???

   Slept with over 50 'just a different hairdos' (I loved em, everyone) and caught a few STD's but what separates me from Trump is I'm willing to admit it and I'm not conning anyone to vote for me for 'Christian of the Year'.

And over 20 minutes later has failed to provide one singular citation to his claims.  I've already toasted him on climate change and ECON matters.   Anyone else want a turn?

And I asked. I think you did too.

He defaulted to the old google it bulls__.  I took the bait, but found that none of the sources were credible or believable.

   She aint that stupid.  That would void her Prenup with Trump.

And if true, you'd know the likes of MSNBC, CNN, and CBS would have ran with it years ago.   Banddag's a major troll.

The only STD I ever caught was when I was in the army. 

I was 18 years old and went off base for the first time. And it was payday

A very volatile  cocktail

Google "Hank Siemers Melania"   Lots of links and sources-allegations and rumors of course.

Here is one from  2016. Many are from  2016/2017

@banddag again -- what does any of what you are claiming have to do with this case????

I'm still trying to figure out what the Prosecution witnesses have to do with this case.  I am not seeing a reason to call Clifford in the first place other than to insert salacious accusations into this trial.

A judge in Florida who is overseeing the DOJ’s criminal prosecution of Trump in their classified documents case has just dealt a huge blow to Biden’s corrupt Justice Department.

Judge Aileen Cannon has just postponed Trump’s trial indefinitely. The trial was supposed to start later this month.

Saw that report too, but I think it appears only to be a postponement because of conflict with other trials.  That's at least what I thought I heard.

Absolutely!

The prosecutor who questioned Stormy Daniels in court today donated $500 to Joe Biden in 2020, as well as $900 to ActBlue.

You can add that conflict of interest to the other prosecutor who was #3 at Biden’s DOJ and worked for the DNC, the judge who also donated to Biden, and the judge’s daughter raising millions of dollars for Democrats off the indictment.

This is the case where Smith just admitted the evidence was mishandled and tainted, and where the Judge un-redacted a bunch of stuff in the past couple of weeks.  Smith is flailing on this one, all of a sudden.

Why every person needs to do research from all sides, left, middle and right.  Never believe anything from the far left or far right without doing your own research .  Both sides  mislead and misinform and leave out pertinent information.

If a person only receives their info from the far left or far right they eventually become misinformed.

So where is your research?

Greg Jarrett on Stormy Daniels' Testimony: "She self-destructed... None of what she had to say was relevant to any of the charges against Donald Trump... Prosecutors put her on the stand to vilify Trump with a salacious story, irrelevant, highly prejudicial, probative of nothing and that is the legal standard that makes her testimony inadmissible and any fair judge would not have allowed it" (Video)
