Merchan sustains only his third objection by the Trump Defense of this Iliad of a Closing Argument, then he sustains a fourth objection. Now Merchan says that now is a good time to take our final break of the day (he meant evening).

Jury is dismissed temporarily.

Blanche is objecting to this line of argument about Stormy Daniels and her security and how there is no link between President Trump and the security that Stormy Daniels has used. He continues that it’s extremely prejudicial.

Steinglass now saying that this was something they agreed upon earlier. Cites the People vs. Edwards case.

Merchan says that Steinglass does not need to go further with this considering the last 4 hours (Merchan is short an hour as it’s been 5 hours…and counting). Objection sustained

Jonathan Turley inside court: Judge allowing prosecution to read unrelated quotes from Trump books

Merchan is now allowing the prosecutors to quote from books on how Trump said that you should attack those who attack you. How is this related to the charge of falsified documents hiding an election violation? It does not seem to matter in the courtroom of Judge Juan Merchan.

Gutfeld: America is still no closer to knowing what Trump did wrong

Fox News Channel's Greg Gutfeld said Tuesday that Americans are still "no closer to knowing" what former President Donald Trump "did wrong" as the prosecution continues to make its case in the courtroom to the jury.

"Despite six weeks, 22 witnesses, and tawdry testimony about spankings, America's still no closer to knowing what Donald Trump did wrong, except pay a scummy lawyer who stole $60,000 from him," Gutfeld said during Tuesday's episode of "The Five."

"The ex-president's lawyer, Todd Blanche, arguing that there was no intent to defraud and no conspiracy to influence the 2016 election," Gutfeld continued. "And as for Bragg's star witness, Blanche saying, 'Michael Cohen is the G.L.O.A.T, he's the greatest liar of all time. You cannot send someone to prison based on the words of Michael Cohen.'"

"The judge not happy about that last line, telling jurors to ignore the suggestion that the former president could be sent to prison if convicted," Gutfeld added, further describing the scene in courtroom scene on Tuesday.

Gutfeld said the prosecution was "busy trying to clean up Cohen's theft and lying by saying, 'We didn't pick Michael Cohen, Trump did.'"

Gutfeld's remarks came as the prosecution continued its closing remarks late into the evening on Tuesday.

Biden puts his reelection before national security

President Joe Biden’s strategy toward Iran, Russia, Hamas, China, and North Korea now has one centering objective: ensuring those adversaries don’t complicate his reelection prospects.

Recognizing this political reality is important for two reasons. First, because Biden’s strategy is undermining American security and that of our allies and interests. Second, because it utterly guts Biden’s tedious claim that he always puts patriotic leadership before his own personal interests. Biden often uses that claim to contrast himself with his 2024 presidential election challenger, former President Donald Trump. But while it’s true that Trump is generally incapable of viewing the national interest and his own personal interests as distinct concerns, Biden now shows the same fallibility.

Indeed, Biden’s hypocrisy here is striking. In his inaugural address, the president pledged to “lead not merely by the example of our power but by the power of our example. We will be a strong and trusted partner for peace, progress, and security.”

Not so much.

Take Iran. Biden was happy to authorize a statement of sympathy following the death of President Ebrahim Raisi. He’s far less willing to confront Iran’s most significant and growing threat. As the Wall Street Journal reported on Monday, the United States is opposing British and French moves to censure Iran at an International Atomic Energy Agency meeting. That censure would reflect Iran’s ever-increasing stockpile of near-weapons-grade-purity nuclear material. Considering that Iran isn’t exactly renowned for its medical research (which enriched nuclear material can support), this stockpile is patently designed to provide Ayatollah Ali Khamenei with a means of rapidly breaking out toward a nuclear weapons capability. Some might describe this as problematic.
