New York City Department of Probation officials questioned the convicted felon and Republican presidential nominee Tuesday in a presentencing interview, and part of the discussion concerned a gun registered to him in the state. Under federal law, convicted felons are not allowed to have guns or ammunition.

@Axtremus said in The Trump "Hush Money" Trial starts today:
Should the SCOTUS’ “presidential immunity” ruling void the NY “hush money/falsification of business records” conviction?
Discuss.
Not at all. Happened as candidate Trump, and had nothing to do with his duties as president.
It should be voided for myriad other reasons.

Pretty much, although I saw where Trump's lawyers were going back through the case to see if anything applied.

Here’s what I don’t understand, doesn’t the change of the statute of limitations after the fact violate the principle of ex post facto law changes? They can change the statute of limitations going forward, but not after. That was settled in Stogner V California

BTW, that's Congresswoman Elsie Stefanik.
If Donald J. Trump is elected, and especially if the GOP retains control of the House...Even better if the GOP controls House, Senate and Executive...I submit that there are serious ethical, judicial and civil rights violations within the State of New York. I think it only appropriate that the Federal Government do a thorough investigation on what appears to be a corrupt system and ensure that no illicit funds are changing hands, federal elections are not being interfered with, that no collusion or conspiracy exists between state and former DOJ/White House official to interfere with Federal elections and that the city of New York or the state of New York is attempting to supersede Federal election law.

Well, he’s still not a convicted felon, and won’t be until after the election.
I’m sure the campaigns will respect that fact and be precise in their language.

One of Trump's former attorneys was on Gutfeld! last night and besides the obligatory yaks, he'd occasionally was serious....They were talking about disinformation and what actually constitutes it.
It was his opinion that NYT vs. Sullivan needed to be revisited by SCOTUS, in light of our current access to information on the internet. With the ability to post a headline or a story in a matter of seconds, then change that story is seconds and then possibly take the story down in seconds, it was his contention that news creators should try their best to get things right about public figures, even if their choice in stories was biased. And that if a story was wrong or if a headline was intentionally misleading, creators should not be able to hide behind the 1st Amendment and should be open to suit for damages.
