Stephen Gardner and Lawyer Katie Cherkasky discuss Trump's legal battles, how the US military has gone woke under Biden and Harris, and how a corrupt, Trump hating Judge pulls one last sneaky trick to hurt Trump before the election.
A judge has ruled that a 100-foot “Vote for Trump” sign will be allowed to be lit up in upstate New York.
On Monday, Montgomery County Supreme Court Justice Rebecca Slezak lifted a temporary restraining order following a city lawsuit against the CEO of Sticker Mule, Anthony Constantino.
The city, which is represented by attorneys working for Mayor Michael Cinquanti (D-N.Y.), argued that the company did not obtain the required permits to put in the sign up. They also said that drivers could be distracted by the sign.
Constantino’s legal team responded to the allegations stating that the sign was far enough from major roads to avoid such risks.
“All I know is tonight the party is on and the lighting will occur and there is no court order prohibiting the lighting and display of the sign,” Sal Ferlazzo, Constantino’s lawyer, said. “So it’s obviously a nice victory for Anthony and his team.”
After Slezak heard arguments in court, she lifted the restraining order and cleared the way for the sign’s lighting.
“We are all set to light it up!” Constantino told The New York Post.
Constantino added that Democrats “want to get rid of free speech and censor America and so the sign now signifies something even bigger than what I thought … In America, I got a First Amendment right.”
“It’s my building,” he continued, “it’s a beautiful sign and whether you’re a Democrat or Republican, the sign is an uplifting thing for community enthusiasm.”
Constantino intends to celebrate the court victory and the sign’s debut by holding a rally with special speakers, including local politicians and athletes.

The Arizona Supreme Court has voted to uphold a ban on almost all abortions in the state.
On Tuesday, the court ruled that in all cases, except where the life of the mother is at risk, abortions are illegal.
The crux of the argument was the law from 1846. The 160-year-old near abortion ban pre-dates Arizona’s statehood.
The 1864 law, which was codified again in 1901 and 1913, makes performing or inducing an abortion a felony.
The ruling will not be enforceable for 14-days.
The state’s attorney general released a statement after the ruling. Kris Mayes (D-Ariz.) stated that while she’s attorney general no doctor or woman would be prosecuted.
“The decision made by the Arizona Supreme Court today is unconscionable and an affront to freedom,” Mayes said in her statement. “Make no mistake, by effectively striking down a law passed this century and replacing it with one from 160 years ago, the Court has risked the health and lives of Arizonans. The Arizona Court of Appeals decision, which the Supreme Court has struck down today, was well reasoned and aligned with how courts harmonize different legislation.”
“Today’s decision to reimpose a law from a time when Arizona wasn’t a state, the Civil War was raging, and women couldn’t even vote will go down in history as a stain on our state,” she continued. “This is far from the end of the debate on reproductive freedom, and I look forward to the people of Arizona having their say in the matter. And let me be completely clear, as long as I am Attorney General, no woman or doctor will be prosecuted under this draconian law in this state.”
The opinion comes as the ballot measure is set to be voted on this November. It could allow abortions up to 24-weeks of pregnancy.

Former President Donald Trump has been granted a reprieve as an appeals court cut the $454 million bond he was required to post in his New York civil fraud case on Monday.
The court reduced the massive amount drastically to $175 million, which is a reduction of almost 62%, and has given him a deadline of 10 days to come up with the funds.
Now the 45th president must either post the full amount or post a bond for the amount as he seeks to appeal the immense judgment ordered against him last month.
“There should be no FINE,” Trump, posted on Truth Social earlier Monday, repeating he “did nothing wrong!”
“Why should I be forced to sell my ‘babies’ because a CORRUPT NEW YORK JUDGE & A.G. SET A FAKE AND RIDICULOUS NUMBER.”
Meanwhile, Trump’s attorneys have repeatedly said throughout the case they couldn’t secure a bond and didn’t want to sell his properties at “fire sale” prices to come up with the funds.
Additionally, New York Attorney General Letitia James said she would not hesitate to seize his prized New York property if Trump did not come up with the money.
This comes after Trump was required to show up to a Manhattan court on Monday in the “hush money” case involving adult film star Stormy Daniels.
For now, Trump has a few options for how he can deal with the Monday deadline including, attempting to protect his assets by filing for chapter 11 bankruptcy, paying the bond, waiting to see if the appeals court will keep the set bond or let the deadline lapse, which would allow James to start going after his properties.
Trump has stated a series of posts on Truth Social over the last 24 hours claiming all four criminal cases and the civil fraud case against him are part of President Joe Biden’s alleged attempt to interfere with the 2024 election by carrying out “lawfare” against him.
Furthermore, the former president also faces a criminal case in Georgia for alleged election fraud in the Peach State, a case accusing him of allegedly hoarding government documents from Mar-a-Lago and he faces a case in Washington D.C. for his alleged involvement in the events that took place at the Capitol on January 6th.

Charges against the Gold Star father, who was arrested after harassing President Joe Biden during his State of the Union address, have been dropped.
“A Gold Star Family is the immediate family member(s) of a fallen service member who died while serving in a time of conflict,” according to hopeforthewarriors.org.
Attorney General Brian Schwalb (D-D.C.) withdrew charges against the Gold Star father, who was detained after heckling President Biden during his State of the Union address on Tuesday, Republican lawmakers confirmed.
Representative Brian Mast (R-Fla.) told Fox News on Tuesday night that House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) assisted in getting the charges against Steven Nikoui, 51, dropped for protesting during Biden’s speech. He was protesting in response to an earlier pleading from Representative Darrell Issa (R-Calif.).
“Though he interrupted the event, what Mr. Nikoui voiced out loud was a cry for the acknowledgment of the loss endured by the families of the 13 who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country,” Issa wrote in a letter to Capitol Police chief Thomas Manger on Tuesday.
Nikoui was taken into custody by U.S. Capitol Police after he yelled “Abby Gate!” and “Second Battalion, First Marines!” during Biden’s speech.
At a Capitol Hill hearing on the withdrawal from Afghanistan on Tuesday, he informed reporters that he remained charged despite calls from Mast, Issa, and Rep. Mike Waltz (R-Fla.) to have the case dismissed.
On August 26th, 2021, an ISIS suicide bomber outside Hamid Karzai International Airport killed 13 U.S. service members, including Nikoui’s son, Marine Lance Cpl. Kareem Nikoui.
According to Fox News, the District of Columbia Attorney General’s office defended its decision not to prosecute Nikoui by citing instances of previous protesters who were not charged.
Although Nikoui claims he had no intention of interrupting Biden, he grew irritated when the president only brought up the death of Georgia nursing student Laken Riley, rather than his son or the other twelve U.S. service members who perished in the Abbey Gate explosion.
“I’ve waited three years, I paid $3,000, and I’ve traveled 3,000 miles to finally hear my son’s name in the State of the Union,” he told DailyMail.com. “That trip to the State of the Union—wwhat a kick in my ass.”
Nikoui had been charged with “crowding, obstructing, [and] incommoding Congress,” which is a misdemeanor that typically results in release after paying a $50 fine.

Former President Donald Trump was handed a major legal victory in the Georgia election fraud case against him.
On Wednesday, Fulton County Judge Scott McAfee granted Trump the right to appeal his ruling that allowed District Attorney Fani Willis (D-Ga.) to stay on the case.
This comes after Trump and seven other co-defendants have sought to boot Willis off the case. Trump did not have an automatic right to appeal before the start of the trial.
The defendants must now wait to hear whether the appeals court will agree to hear the case, effectively delaying the next trial from being scheduled.
One of the 45th president’s lawyers, Steve Sadow, called McAfee’s Wednesday decision “highly significant,” adding that he is hopeful their appeal will win.
“The defense is optimistic that appellate review will lead to the case being dismissed and the DA being disqualified,” he added.
“The Court intends to continue addressing the many other unrelated pending pretrial motions, regardless of whether the petition is granted within 45 days of filing, and even if any subsequent appeal is expedited by the appellate court,” McAfee wrote in his ruling.
Meanwhile, the 45th president and his co-defendants are hoping to take Willis and the rest of her team off the case due to Willis’s past-romantic relationship with prosecutor Nathan Wade, who has since resigned from the case after the judge allowed her to stay on as long as he stepped down.
Additionally, Trump and the rest of his co-defendants are hoping to get the entire case thrown out and the charges tossed entirely. Trump’s team has said that the romance between Wade and Willis was a clear conflict of interest, which Willis has adamantly denied.
