President-elect Donald Trump filed an emergency petition to the Supreme Court on Wednesday to block his sentencing in the business records case in which a New York jury found him guilty of falsifying business records.
Trump pleaded not guilty to all the charges and appealed the case, which Merchan rejected last week. The president-elect’s filing to the Supreme Court came after a New York judge on Tuesday denied his motion to stay Friday’s sentencing. American People elected President Trump with an overwhelming mandate that demands an immediate end to the political weaponization of our justice system and all of the remaining Witch Hunts.
