alvin bragg is going to get reelected in short order. but this is bigger than alvin bragg. this is bigger than new york city, and they have to exercise some intellectual honesty and dignity toward the president and do it at this point, and they can appeal it all they want but they cannot hold this over the president's head of the next four or five years, they cannot do that -- >> sandra: just want to -- >> it is different. >> sandra: judge, stephen chang, spokesperson for president trump and his transition, this is a total and definitive victory, trump's team said for president and the american people who elected him in a landslide, this is the first reaction we have seen, the manhattan d.a. has conceded this witch hunt cannot continue, the lawless case is now stayed and present trump's legal team is moving to get it dismissed once and for all, so they are celebrating despite the fact that the judge has not moved in -- kerri is looking boggled. let this be the tees. we will have more after the break. we will be right back. ah, these bills are crazy. she has no idea she's si

bragg is not backing down.gg was asked about the filing this morning by one of our fox producers. it went like this. >> do you want a sentence to be rendered before inauguration, or would you rather it come after his term? and is trump about the law? >> i'm not going to go beyond what we filed in court yesterday, although i think your answer may be in our letter, what we said in our letter. we have significant competing constitutional issues. the office of the presidency and the obligations that come with that, on the one hand, and the other hand, the sanctity of a jury that has spoken and rendered a guilty verdict. we frame the issue for the co court. >> kayleigh: allow me to translate. jonathan turley said it best. he said that what bragg is wanting is to put a leash on the sitting president for four years. emily, jonathan turley said this -- many democrats want to be to govern with an asterisk of a pending sentencing. instead, trump would govern with a clock ticking toward a sentencing date. it's a dangerous

bragg could have moved to dismiss this case. the president's lawyers have to effectively ask to dismiss. this case is dead, waiting for dismissal. so what is merchan waiting for? >> that's a great point. while today is certainly a positive development for the trump team, we need to continue to exercise caution in how we approach what judge merchan is going to do with these arguments are in before him. we already know what both sides are doing. donald trump is arguing it should be thrown out for a number of reasons. the scotus immunity case, the fact that donald trump became president, which raises all kinds of constitutional questions. the fact that the department of justice has a policy that you can't indict, prosecute a sitting president, and that in the spirit of that policy the state of new york should take the same approach. and alvin bragg's office has already laid out their argument. they said completely openly last week in the letter they submitted to the court that they plan to oppose trump's request to throw out the ca

bragg is not reasonable is he the believer minnesota radical of approach.at is he going not going to do first day in office. not going to arrest people for fair. they are losing 3 quarters of a billion dollars a year on this. that's why we have congestion pricing because of district attorney bragg. is he not someone who i think would respond to that, but, of course, you would do that. he is a hero in my mind by any sense of the word. >> brian: if they convict him, it will be an -- that will be criminal. real quick, jose ibarra in new york city roosevelt hotel. we said we want him out of here. took a free flight plopped him in georgia and he kills. what's your take away from this? >> well, when you allow millions, literally millions of people to come across our borders unvetted, this type of thing is going to happen. it is inevitable. the whole open border situation is just disgraceful. without any reason by the way no. reason given by the administration, the current administration as to why the border was open. they just let them. in no reporter ever asks t

his alvin bragg at some's care?ected official in new york good clearly when the trump administration is in situ they will come after people in the department of justice. is he one they will look at? >> yes. christian, look, that statement from donald trump's team certainly is premature as the legal process plays out. certainly for them they see this as a victory. they see the writing on the wall that perhaps this will be delayed until after his upcoming presidency. in four years time who knows where the world wi be? minds may have shifted by then. as you say, donald trump is seeking to put his loyalists in the department of justice. donald trump, during the campaign was outspoken about wanting to seek political retribution or retribution against his enemies. alvin bragg was the first prosecutor in the country to bring charges against a former president, against donald trump. he may certainly be wondering what a future donald trump presidency means for new york here. >> an interesting one to watch next week. thank yo

>> alvin bragg is not going to drop the case.e the inauguration, should the judge who is conflicted from the beginning of this case, the money she made, should the judge dismissed the case based on a motion to vacate after the verdict? >> i think i am supposed to say yes to that. can i just say, there is a difference between saying i am going to continue to vote for liberals and drawing a distinction between the kind of liberals that you are voting for. the new d.a. in los angeles who has a tough on crime platform or the mayor of san francisco that is coming in and campaigned on this is unacceptable. the idea that we are going to convert to the other side is far-fetched. you can find people within the party who have a more mode moderate -- >> that was the question. >> i just said. he's not going to wipe it away. it's not going to exist. it's not going to be a thing. i don't think trump is staying up at night worrying about this. >> alvin bragg is up for reelection next year. new yorkers have a choice to make. >> new yorkers are n

alvin bragg. >> when we look at the travesty that is being presented by the d.a. in prosecuting mr.ney, it begs the question of what are we doing to uphold the social contract? it's clear that it's not working. we have crime that's running off the rails in the city of new york. >> this man ramon rivera was arrested after he was accused of killing three people during a stabbing spree across manhattan on monday. he had been released from a new york city jail earlier this month after an extensive criminal history and yesterday a tourist was stabbed in the face during seemingly random attack on the upper west side. also ice announced the arrest of two illegal immigrants who were charged with children in massachusetts in addition to a third man, of fugitive with a conviction for a child in brazil. we have some governors including the governor of massachusetts... even though as we've reported on multiple times, those deportations are going to focus on removing illegal immigrants who have committed crimes. still you get this pushback. >> trace: let's bring in... great to have both of you o

"the faulkner focus" is next. >> harris: as we come in with this fox news alert president-elect trump now has a growing number of blue state

while we are talking about alvin bragg, he seems to be hanging onto this trump case. everybody seems to think is going to go away. alvin bragg is like we will just wait four years and see what the courts say then. >> there's still a bit of taste with the soup of the day. some people think it's a popular thing. maybe in manhattan. however it has fallen by the wayside. what is happening here as you can never imagine alvin bragg will wave the white flag and say you know what i took my shot and i messed up. he can't say it, he's a politician, he cannot do that, he has to save face so what he's going to do is let this case die a slow death. either by a motion to appeal or a dismissal motion or in a couple of years when everyone is still supporting trump, to just let it go quietly. >> trace: tom homan said this about cities that say they will resist trump deportations. watch this. >> let me give a word of advice. if you impede us, there will be consequences. title eight, it is a felony to harper and conceal an illegal alien so read that statute and don't cross that line. >>

what is up with that and as there is on the alvin bragg case. alina: sure, the d.a. in the recommendation which was to navigate this after the presidency, after he was done be present which is insane to me. instead of just saying drop this case, it was passed the statute of limitations just like letitia james case is fasted by by bragg and it was brought when he ran the key witnesses michael cohen stormy daniels horribly were not credible. we saw the new york court jury brought information that shouldn't have been according to the supreme court because he is privileged and entitled to immunity and is flawed from inception and will, they should be done everything should be done important in that case the judge to say he gave us we've file a motion to dismiss meaning that we now can file a motion to say look, they may want to wait another four years to put them in jail, we are not doing that what if i would rush and these are all the reasons according to supreme court according to basic law, this case should have never been tried. david: is wonderful predecessor to alv

alvin bragg the election?g to facilitate, has the city reached their tipping point and voters are saying, we're fed up with alvin bragg's soft on crime policy, we'll elect a republican in a deep blue city like this? >> this is not about party, it is who has best policies and idea and who will prioritize keeping new yorkers safe. we have had a 30% increase in crime in this city. people are fed up with response they get, they don't even call in crime. if you see someone stealing in your local pharmacy, you will not call, you know alvin bragg will not prosecute that case. he released a memo saying he was not going to prosecute. if alvin bragg keeps his job, our city will get less safe. i am defense litigator for many years and manhattan needs to be defended against criminals. >> todd: i would ask for a point by point approach to your plan, i think i can make it as simple for audience as possible. if somebody commits a crime, you will prosecute them, is it that simple? >> it is that simple, prosecute crime, suppor

any news on the alvin bragg case? >> sure. d. a. gave their recommendation which was to navigate this after the presidency, after he's done being president, which is insane to me. instead of just saying drop this case. it was past the statute of limitations just like letitia's case. it was passed up by cy vance and passed up by bragg and brought when he ran. the key witnesses were michael cohen and stormy daniels who i believe are not credible and we saw that in a new york court, a jury who was brought information they shouldn't have been brought according to the supreme court because he is privileged and entitled to immunity. the case was flawed from its inception. look, this should be done, everything should be done. what's more important in that case is the judge said he gave us leave to file a motion to dismiss so we can file a motion to say look they may want to ain't another four years to put him in jail. we're not doing that. we'll file a motion and these are the reasons according to the supreme court and according to basic l

bragg is ignoring the immunity issue. the big issue is whether this case should exist at all given the supreme court immunity ruling. the idea that bragg and the judge would hold over a sitting president's head the possibility of going to jail would obviously impair the presidency. it's designed to intimidate and harass him while he's president. so the fact that alvin bragg is still playing this game shows, and he's a politically connected guy, shows the democrats are still committed to law fair to harass president trump. right now for instant jack smith is visibly typing away, misusing taxpayer resources, to put out a smear report on trump. everything should stop, everything in terms of the law fair targeting trump, because now it's impairing our national security and an incoming president. >> kevin: miraculously a hacker suddenly ends up with a house report. wonder how that happened. more questions about that as well. great to see you, thank you. >>> coming up, there seems to be a renewed focus on faith and hate -- patr

in large part this case was driven by the man who left doj to go assist alvin bragg in this case. they drove this case because they wanted the talking point of a convicted felon. of course, the problem with all of that is in order for them to have made these so-called misdemeanor, felonies, they had to say he was trying to cover up something else. the problem is we never learned what those something elses were. he didn't know, we don't know. the judge made a decision that the jury didn't have to tell us, which was crazy. so i have to say this, though, about what happened just now in the last hour. i'm actually not surprised. donald trump's legal team just asked bragg's office a couple of days ago to pause the proceedings in light of the fact he became president of the united states. this is separate from the immunity question. all that happened today was judge merchan said okay, to bragg's office, give me your perspective on whether donald trump becoming president changes anything about this case. because the constitutional questions are raised. the department of justice has a pol

ashley: but we know without a shadow of a doubt the judge merchan and alvin bragg did not like donaldn bragg ran for office on getting donald trump. >> reporter: how friendly they will be is another question. we will see alvin bragg and his team ask merchan to sentence him as early as of this month or especially before the january 20th inauguration but if you wants to not wait until trump is a civilian again he could issue a fine which some critics of trump would not be happy with. they would see that as not enough of a burden on him, no prison time or long probation process. they settle it in that way. ashley: when you think of the legal action taken against donald trump, he has pretty much avoided much of what the other side wanted. would you agree? >> he avoided a lot and that was before he was elected president. now that he has been elected he will be able to continue to avoid and avoid a lot more. one -- the immunity decision, the process, how complex it would be to sentence a president elect to. he is on track to keep avoiding office. ashley: donald trump expected to join elon m

alvin bragg moved to maybe postpone it. they are holding on to this sentencing of trump on the federal level i'm not sure what can be done about this. how deleterious is that to our executive branch and future president if this kind of nonsense can continue. >> it is terrible, laura. look, let's cut to the chase. this case is dead it. should never have been brought. it was a travesty to begin with. now, it is dead. any attempt by judge merchan and the prosecutors to keep it alive somehow for four years. >> laura: unbleeble. >> keep waiving it like a bloody shirt whenever they feel like it is outrageous. >> laura: 2029. hold it until 2029 they want to keep lawfare going from 2015 to 2029. chris, i had to ask you about that. chris, couldn't stay on one topic. thank you very much. biden's fema has americans living in tents, still. the details and shocking video as illegal immigrants are living in hotels, yeah, that's next. ♪ after many years of working as a teacher, i wasn't ready for retirement. becoming a visiting angels car

then we get the response from alvin bragg's office. we know what they'll say and likely judge merchan will set a hearing date and they will argue what they put in the briefs in the next couple weeks. >> harris: two things, the u.s. supreme court weighed in on this. so when they weighed in at that highest court level was that not enough to alter this case? >> it's complicated. you have to understand with this particular case it involved actions before donald trump became president and after. so one of the things that many legal scholars are talking about is how that immunity ruling actually makes things more complicated but in a helpful way for donald trump. because effectively the judge would have to unravel testimony that was presented before the jury that involved conversations and meetings that he had after he was president, which presumably looking at the supreme court decision, are protected conversations. and that would be immune. the question, of course, then is how much did the jury depend on that evidence, on those meetings an

this is bragg at its worst. the only reason this trial has occurred is because the racial components are such that there was pressure on him to bring the case. it never, ever should have been brought. first of all, you know, the jury is not going to know about his 42 priors. the jury, however, is going to see the videotape and any reasonable person seeing the videotape would say, look, this is too close a case. this is not a criminal case. a criminal case should involve overwhelming evidence. it shouldn't involve a plausible theory of guilt, a plausible theory of innocence. that's what prosecutors are supposed to be trained to avoid. so this is a case that never, ever should have been brought. i don't believe it's going to result in a conviction. people who want to go on the subways when they hear somebody yell, i'm going to kill you. i don't care if i go to jail, are in fear of their lives. and when you're in fear of your life, what you hope for is a good samaritan who's going to jump in and protect you. and we

it's an attempt to put bragg above the law. and i think the courts will hold him responsible and will do the right thing and reverse this conviction on appeal. do you agree with that? gregg jarrett? or maybe just let the judge sentence donald trump, then go through the appeals process while he is president? sure. well, we just don't know what he's going to do. but i do agree that delaying the trump case for four years is ludicrous. it's an insult to justice, and it violates state law by the way, that requires sentencing within 12 months from conviction. the dilemma for trump's lawyers is that they cannot appeal all of marshawn's chronic, reversible errors at trial until there is, as the professor points out, an adjudication. well, that happens at sentencing. they can, however, immediately appeal if merchan denies the motion to dismiss on the immunity claim. if the judge refuses to rule and that's what he's doing right now, they should seek a writ of mandamus from a higher court, force him to do his job for goodness sakes. but a

"on november fifth 2024, the nations people issued a mandate that supersedes the political motivation of the people. this case must immediately be dismissed." todd blanche says immediate dismissal of the case is mandated by the presidential transition act of 1963. and the "interests of justice" in order to facilitate the orderly transition of executive power following president trump's overwhelming victory in the 2024 presidential election. the transition act has been amended numerous times including as recently as 2022. it requires the basics like provide transition teams with office space, facilities, funding for transition staff and access to other government services. critics argue the trump team is just ignoring the transition rules, with some calling this a hostile takeover. times are changing here in the nation's capital, trace. >> trace: quick

bragg pushed a delay of sentencing until trump leaves office. merchan hasn't indicated when he will issue a final decision on the case. ashley is the lawyer for trump's co-defendant in the georgia case and joins us now. ashley, great to see you. it has been a minute. what do you thick judge merchan. will he hold everything in abeyance until 2029? >> i think he is hoping and praying that the prosecution does the right thing and i think he has given them extra time to hope they do the right thing. you have to understand that prosecutorial discretion is the basis of our entire criminal legal system. without a prosecutor willing to exercise that discretion for the greater good the whole system fails. i think the judge is hoping to do the right thing. a president on bond for four years? will it be pending for five years? is that really what the public wants and for the greater good? this case needs to go away. >> john: i don't know about that. andy mccarthy was talking about this yesterday. clearly in bragg's interest to keep this thing going because

i would be surprised if at this point bragg dismissed the case. i agree with the thrust of what trey was saying but i think the difference here compared to some of the other cases is that bragg feels like he didn't lose. he feels like he won the case at trial. so it would be difficult for him to swallow hard and dismiss it at this point. but he really hasn't completely won because important things haven't happened here yet. there hasn't been a sentencing or judgment or conviction and he doesn't have a clear path to get there because even if judge merchan rules his way on immunity, they are looking at a long appeal. >> dana: jonathan turley, this is a statement from the trump spokesman after the delay last tuesday saying the american people have reelected president trump with an overwhelming mandate to make america great again. it is now clear americans want an immediate end to the weaponization of our justice system, including this case. it might not be all americans certainly but for those that voted for president trump indeed and maybe some demo

. >> john: at the same time, alvin bragg, running for reelection in new york city expected to win indslide. our andy mccarthy wrote this about a year and a half ago about the criminal justice system in new york. he wrote, "new york does not have a justice system. it has a political system masquerading as a justice system. it's run by one party, the democratic party, which is a tool of progressives who see prosecutorial power as a weapon for achieving their race-obsessed vision of social justice. if you want to know why daniel penny now faces criminal prosecution in the death of jordan neely, that's why." do you agree, disagree? >> yeah, i think andy mccarthy is spot on on that. is really clear to anyone who has been any kind of attention,f daniel penny is in reactionary prosecution in response to the racial flame-fanning that came out after the death of jordan neely, people calling a lynching on the national stage, in the national media, so there was a lot of political pressure brought to bear on someone like ellen bragg, who is kind of made his career by responding to progressive po

bragg's office will perhaps take this opportunity to wind criminal case down here in new york city. what the doj's prosecutor, jack smith, is doing with his federal documents case and the january 6th case. he's expected to update the federal courts next month. but here in new york it's also possible that maybe bragg is going to to try to press ahead with sentencing. what distinguishes this criminal case here in new york from the other cases we've seen is that that the here in new york city we had a trial and that guilty verdict delivered by the jury. and those were pretty late sages in the case that the other cases have not reached for trump. but still, trump's defense attorneys are very clearly pushing for the verdict here to be overturned and the indictment dismissed. they're arguing that the supreme court's immight bety decision from the -- immunity decision from the summer and that trump's to president-elect, this sentencing cannot happen. depending on how they proceed, it could force the judge to decide whether to toss this case or resume with sentencing, and then that begs the
