New Jersey Postpones Hearing On Trump’s Liquor Licenses After Supreme Court Decisionwww.forbes.com The state denied liquor-license renewals for two Trump golf clubs, requiring them to prove they are still qualified to sell alcohol after Trump's felony conviction.

this sooort of makes sense. Merchan delayed sentencing to let the parties brief whether the supreme court decision changes the outcome of the criminal case. theoretically, if it did, he wouldn't be a felon.

Wait, was the hush-money payment made before or after he was inaugurated?

payment to daniels via national enquirer in August 2016 but the lying and repayment through cohen was largely after

to the best of my understanding, trump's lawyers aren't arguing that his acts were official. instead they're arguing that testimony and documentary evidence about official acts should have been excluded. per the opinion, they might have a point. per any reasonable human logic, they do not.

Okay I see. Thanks for breaking that down.

can’t wait for the Supreme Court to trot out a new version of harmless error analysis for their favorite boy

Oh I somehow missed where the repayment came after. So many crimes. I only have so much RAM.
