“The Court should adjourn any sentencing in this case, though one should not be necessary because dismissal and vacatur of the jury’s verdicts are required based on Presidential immunity, until after the 2024 Presidential election… Notwithstanding the Court’s ruling on the disputed recusal issue, the requested adjournment would prospectively mitigate the asserted conflicts and appearances of impropriety, which are also the subject of an ongoing congressional inquiry.”

“In yesterday’s ruling. the Court did not address the significance of the 2019 conversations with Your Honor’s daughter criticizing President Trump’s use of Twitter, with the new fact being that existing Tweets from President Trump at the time of that conversation are squarely at issue in the pending Presidential immunity motion. Moreover, since the most recent recusal motion, as Kamala Harris did previously. Tim Walz wrongly referred to this case in a public speech as the Democrat Party’s nominee for Vice President. In the same timeframe, Michael Nellis, a business partner of Your Honor’s daughter at Authentic Campaigns (and Authentic’s founder), posted on social media about, inter alia, making maximum donations to the Harris campaign and using his clout with that campaign to get Walz to ‘talk on our White Dudes for Harris call last week.’ Sentencing is currently scheduled to occur after the commencement of early voting in the Presidential election.”

“By adjourning the sentencing until after that election which is of paramount importance to the entire Nation, including tens of millions of people who do not share the views of Authentic, its executives, and its clients-the Court would reduce, even if eliminate, issues regarding the integrity of any future proceedings,” whined Trump lawyer Todd Blanche in a letter to Manhattan Judge Juan Merchan this week and yeah, dragging Merchan’s daughter into it will work.
