Jeff McConney, former longtime controller at Trump Organization, testifying now
By Kyle Schnitzer

Jeff McConney, the former longtime controller of the Trump Organization, was sworn in and has taken the stand as the next witness in Donald Trump’s hush money trial.

McConney worked directly under the Trump Organization’s former chief financial officer Allen Weisselberg, who was sentenced to five months in jail in April after admitting to lying during Trump’s civil fraud trial.

McConney previously testified in two trials tied to Trump including the civil fraud trial, where he was a co-defendant.

The real estate mogul was ordered to pay a total of $450 million for inflating the value of Trump’s property assets. A judge ruled that McConney was banned from serving in any financial management role at any New York company.

A judge also ruled that he was banned from holding an officer role at any New York company for three years.

He testified that the Trump Organization is paying for his lawyer today.

Jurors being shown Michael Cohen's invoices from 2017
By Kyle Schnitzer

Jurors are being shown monthly invoices sent by Michael Cohen in 2017 after the alleged hush money payment to Stormy Daniels.

Jeff McConney, the former controller at the Trump Organization, testified under direct examination that the Trump Organization agreed to repay Cohen $420,000 in exchange for his out-of-pocket $130,000 payment made to Daniels.

Earlier, McConney discussed how he and CFO Allen Weisselberg discussed what was owed to Cohen, which included a $50,000 tab to Red Finch tech services, which brought the amount to $180,000.

But that number was doubled to $360,000 to offset taxes, according to McConney, who said Cohen also received a $60,000 bonus in 2017.

Cohen's invoices, sent to Weisselberg, came via email, evidence shows.

Cohen was sent monthly installments of $35,000 by the Trump Organization for phony legal expenses for 12 months, McConney's testimony shows.

Leading Democrat blindsided after being targeted by Biden’s DOJ

The Justice Department is out for blood. President Joe Biden has them ready to pounce on anyone regardless of Party affiliation.

And a leading Democrat was blindsided after being targeted by Biden’s DOJ.

The Department of Justice (DOJ) has been a menace under President Joe Biden.

They have targeted pro-lifers for the most ridiculous things in an effort to silence them.

Biden has completely weaponized the DOJ to go after his political opponents.

And now even a Democrat is being targeted.

Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX) is expected to be indicted by the DOJ for charges that are not yet known.

Cuellar is a pro-life Democrat and hasn’t been shy with his criticism towards Biden and how he’s handled the crisis at the southern border.

Via NYP: “At three colleges, the protests are being encouraged by paid radicals who are “fellows” of a Soros-funded group called the US Campaign for Palestinian Rights (USCPR). USCPR provides up to $7,800 for its community-based fellows and between $2,880 and $3,660 for its campus-based “fellows” in return for spending eight hours a week organizing “campaigns led by Palestinian organizations.” https://nypost.com/2024/04/26/us-news/george-soros-maoist-fund-columbias-anti-israel-tent-city/

Some pro-Palestinian protesters on college campuses are allegedly getting paid $7,800 for just 8 hours of protesting. George Soros is funding a huge part of it.

Great graphic, @DCPatriot!

Here's a graphic no team or fan would ever want, yet here we are.  8888crybaby

What the heck?????

That is what happens when the front office completely forgoes any pitching depth (esp. bullpen) during the previous off season.   Saw this coming, but not at this level.  A strong season by JV, Valdez,  just might get us to .500 by end of season.

OTOH, it was a fun run, and time for some other fans to enjoy

McConney said it was a “teaching moment” for him.
I hope it taught him that he had no sense of humor.
