D’Amato was mobbed up, as I recall. He was certainly no stranger to the Archie Bunker style race baiting that would become trump’s hallmark.

Thanks!

Mr. D'Amato's Idea of Justice

LEAD: Senator Alfonse D'Amato has failed to distinguish between helping his constituents, for which he is widely known, and intervening in justice. Three times during Rudolph Giuliani's tenure as U.S. Attorney in Manhattan, the Senator called the prosecutor to express an interest in pending cases.

So when are all these Trumpists going to stop filing frivolous lawsuits to try to cover their traitorous actions?

I imagine the same question was asked at the 11th circuit appeals court .... 'when will Trump stop filing frivolous lawsuits to cover up his traitorous actions'....?

Trump is too greedy to just buy off judges and probably doesn't have lawyers he can trust enough to do it after Cohn and his partner, Bolan
were disbarred.

Unlike the majority of his peers, Costello was said to eschew violence He cultivated refinement and sought out sophisticated friends among New York's established bigwigs and politicians. These men curried his favors to such an extent that the underworld grapevine claimed, "Nobody in New York City can be made a judge without Costello's consent.".."

Judge Tosses Out Sidney Powell’s Countersuit Against Dominion Voting Systems

The far-right attorney alleged Dominion abused the judicial process by filing a defamation lawsuit against her.

www.forbes.com

"Nichols, who was appointed by former President Donald Trump, ruled there was no abuse of process because that would require showing “a perversion of the judicial process,” which Powell didn’t prove."


These are not good days for those around the ex-president.

Seems like standard operating procedure. Make claims, don't back them up.
