Give me liberty or death, Trump tells Judges who gag him from talking

 

 

Former U.S. President Donald Trump has slammed judges who gagged him from talking in the numerous civil and criminal trials against him.

 

 

Trump is currently facing a rigorous hush money trial in the court of Judge Juan Merchan whom he severally accused of being conflicted and corrupt.

 

 

The Judge donated $35 in political contributions to Democrats in 2020, including a $15 contribution to the campaign of Trump’s opponent, President Joe Biden.

 

Trump has argued that he could not get justice from the judge. He also does not have faith in the Jurors as the majority of them come from Democratic Party-leaning districts.

 

Judge Arthur Engoron had earlier imposed a gag order on Trump in a civil fraud trial. So, also Judge Lews Kaplan slammed Trump with a gag order in a case of alleged defamation of writer E. Jeanne Carroll. Trump is expected to pay $83.3 million in punitive and compensatory damages to Carroll.

 

In a post on his Truth Social, Trump described all the judges as crooks, corrupt and conflicted.

 

He said: “It is a really bad feeling to have your Constitutional Right to Free Speech, such a big part of life in our Country, so unfairly taken from you, especially when all of the sleazebags, lowlifes, and grifters that you oppose are allowed to say absolutely anything that they want. It is hard to sit back and listen to lies and false statements be made against you knowing that if you respond, even in the most modest fashion, you are told by a Corrupt and Highly Conflicted Judge that you will be PUT IN PRISON, maybe for a long period of time. This Fascist mindset is all coming from D.C. It is a sophisticated hit job on Crooked Joe Biden’s Political Opponent, ME!. Judges Engoron and Kaplan, also of New York, are equally Corrupt, only in different ways. What these THUGS are doing is AN ATTACK ON THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, AND OUR ONCE GREAT NATION ITSELF. OUR FIRST AMENDMENT MUST STAND, FREE AND STRONG. “GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH!’”
