Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts
In the year 2023 Justice Is Nowhere to be Found in the Western World.
Examples are numerous. I have written about the injustices inflicted on Julian Assange, Trump supporters, and those forced to submit to Covid “vaccination.” This time I will illustrate the point with the “fraud case” against Trump for allegedly overstating the value of his real estate holdings and with the entire world standing aside, the genocide of Palestinians under the rubric of Israel’s “self-defense.”
The “fraud case” against Trump consists of an unsupported allegation against Trump by George Soros’ disciple NY attorney general Letitia James who is on record as a Trump-hater.
It is not a trial. There is no jury. The staged proceeding is only for the judge to determine how big a fine Trump has to pay for allegedly–no proof is supplied, only Letitia’s accusation–overstating the value of his holdings.
The judge, Engoron, in my opinion, is indulging his publicly-avowed hatred of Trump. It is the judge who should be indicted and placed on trial. He is guilty of ignoring an appellate court’s ruling that set a statute of limitations on the case. He granted a summary judgment against Trump of $250,000,000 before the process of determining Trump’s fine began.
Engoron and his staff are hardcore Democrats. They have made political contributions to the Democrat Party that are against the rules of conduct for judges and their law clerks.
Additionally, the biased judge has ruled against Trump’s ability to speak his mind and has prevented Trump’s attorneys from pointing out the ridiculous nature of the charges.
The charge that Trump overstated the value of his real estate holdings is only the unsupported opinion of the biased Trump-hater Letitia James who claims that New York State was damaged by Trump’s alleged overstatement of the value of his holdings.
The judge, who has no qualification as a real estate appraiser, says Trump’s Mar-a-Lago is only worth $18 million. Forbes magazine gives it a minimum value of $350,000,000.
Neither New York nor anyone suffered from the alleged and unsupported claim that Trump overstated the value of his holdings.
As US Representative Elise Stefanik stated in her ethics compliant filed against judge Engoron in New York, “no evidence was presented on trial to suggest fraud, and in fact material evidence suggested the opposite.”
“The defendant paid back the sophisticated Wall Street banks, on time, in full, with interest, as agreed. No insurance company paid a penny. And these banks and insurance companies, allegedly defrauded, continue to do business with the defendant.”
“Indeed, two banks had done their own analyses of President Trump’s net worth, as revealed in testimonies, and for some development projects the bank had courted President Trump’s business, not the other way around.”
Trump Organization had valued Mar-a-Lago between $426 million and $612 million in these statements, while Ms. James and the judge valued it at $18 million to $27.6 million, prompting ridicule from prominent real estate brokers who regarded the Trump-hating judge’s claim as “ludicrous.”
The judge, who declared Trump to be “a bad man” dismissed from the record exculpatory evidence for Trump in the form of a sworn affidavit from Lawrence Moens, the top Palm Beach luxury broker, who said if he had the opportunity to market Mar-a-Lago, it would be sold to someone with “net worths in the multiple billions,” the likes of Elon Musk, kings, emperors, and heads of state. Engoron called the statement an “unsubstantiated dream,” but admitted testimony from someone on the attorney general’s side who helped come up with the $250 million disgorgement figure, suggesting banks lost out on more than $100 million in interest because the financial statements were inflated. THIS IS ONLY THE JUDGE’S AND LETITIA’S CLAIM, NOT THE BANKS’ CLAIM. THERE ARE NO INJURED PARTIES.
TO BE CLEAR THE “FRAUD CASE” AGAINST TRUMP HAS NO COMPLAINANT EXCEPT LETITIA
HOW DID SUCH A FAKE CASE GET INTO THE JUSTICE SYSTEM?
THE ANSWER IS THAT THE US “JUSTICE” SUSTEM IS NOTHING BUT A WEAPON AGAINST OPPONENTS OF THE DEEP STATE. TRUMP IS BEING PERSECUTED FOR ONE REASON ONLY–TO MAKE IT CLEAR TO ALL FUTURE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES THAT IF YOU ATTEMPT TO REPRESENT THE PEOPLE INSTEAD OF THE RULING ESTABLISHMENT YOU WILL BE DESTROYED.
Now turn to Israel’s destruction of Palestine with the support of the United States, the Republican Party, Christian Evangelicals, and the puppet states that comprise the American Empire. After a month of slaughter, Russia, China, Iran, Syria, Hezbollah, and the rest of the world have taken no action to stop it.
No government has lifted a finger against Israel’s declared intention of destroying the remnants of Palestine still lingering after 75 years of Israel’s ongoing theft of Palestine from the inhabitants.
The Great Moral Western governments ban citizens from protesting Israel’s slaughter of Palestinians. US corporations and law firms collect the names of protesting students and blacklist them from employment. What person of integrity would work for such companies?
We have now lived through more than one month of Israeli bombing relentlessly killing 10,000 Palestinian women and children, and the entire world together cannot stop the atrocity. When the UN tries, Washington vetoes the UN. Israel’s declared policy is to drive every resident of Gaza into the Sinai Desert into “tent cities,” from which Israel expects Europe and the US to absorb them as immigrants, thus erasing Palestine from history.
Going by news reports of massive US military forces accumulating around Israel and announcements that Washington has Hezbollah, Iran, and Syria in its targets, it seems that the US is employed as Israel’s agent in behalf of Greater Israel–“from the Nile to the Euphrates.” The ethnic cleansing of Palestine is the beginning of the slaughter.
Here is a report about Rep. Stefanik’s ethic complaint filed against the judge: https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/house-republican-files-ethics-complaint-against-judge-in-trump-fraud-case-5527003?utm_source=News&src_src=News&utm_campaign=rtbreaking-2023-11-10-1&src_cmp=rtbreaking-2023-11-10-1&utm_medium=email&est=EA%2BpgvlbkS3hC4v4Zw0WTRgMXA1t9dyjOtoZpf5HGyTZWJF870IHWg%3D%3D

He is being prosecuted to establish street cred.
They seem to be partially rerunning a play they ran in the 1920s.
They are putsching him.
I saw the writing on the wall when Italy jailed those geologists for not predicting an EARTHQUAKE accurately enough to suit them!
And as usual, PCR comes down on the wrong side of the issue. Even when he’s right, he’s fucking wrong!
Civil Asset Forfeiture declares ‘welcome to the party, pal!’
Sounds like open season on crooked cops to me. You want my money? Allow me to give you a reason to try to take it…since you’re going to try regardless.
I used to read your articles, but your comments / opinions regarding what Israel is doing are turning me away fast. Clearly your opinions are not based in any historical fact. This is disappointing. If you have a platform, use it to spread truth, not lies !!
You are not qualified to make comments on what is going on in the Middle East any more, you just lost any credibility you might have had.
– There is a God in Israel in 2023. He is the creator and He made promises to the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. God’s promises and His great name are what’s at stake here. SL
Your God is money and you are of your father, Satin
Satin…the fabic?
Well…he IS a slick one!
Well, if God is really involved in setting up the modern state of Israhell, then he can protect it. He scattered them all over the world long before he finally destroyed Jerusalem. Satan was behind setting up the modern state of Israhell.
You ever stop to think that blowing US all to Hell is how He’s going to do it? Be VERY careful what you ask for.
Satan was also behind the cruxifixction ,the devil is Gods devil .
You read here long enough and it’s going to become obvious to you just how many here do not ACTUALLY take God at His Word. We were told ALL of this from the beginning and yet half of them just refuse to accept it.
You can’t fix stupid.
Clearly not based on historical facts! I agree 100 percent and also share your disappointment.
Those that know their bibles very well know the promises in Genesis and the TRUTH.
Many are now on this biblically uneducated slippery slope. Never thought the apostasy would be so cleverly disguised .Know your bible know the truth. Seems the Messianic Jews and the on fire born again Christians who know their bibles especially the Old Testament ,are the Remnant.
Stolen land what a joke,it is written who gave the land to Abraham forever . Read and ye shall find!
Wait a minute…God made some promises to a bunch of Europeans? When did that happen?
Right about 33 A.D. if memory serves.
I see that you’ve chosen a side. Unless you’re a jew, the side you’ve chosen is not even your own. Go watch some more TV news.
So I guess that means you’re a goat fucking Muslim then, right?

Yes but they are most certainly NOT Jews!
And ye (Jews) shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen (true Israel)
for the Lord God (Jesus Christ) shall slay thee, and call his servants by another name.
Isaiah 65:15
In my fiery anger I have spoken out against the rest of the (United) nations and against
all of Edom (Idumaea) The Edomites have taken possession of my land with wholehearted joy
and with complete scorn. They forced out the people and took their land. Ezekiel 36:5

I didn’t see the world lining up against the Hamas attack on 10/7, or their declared vow to destroy Israel, either. As to Israel’s counter attack, it’s called war. This is something Hamas should have understood before launching the atrocities. Somehow i think George Patton would have have clearly understood.
A satanic demon wrote this article. I’ll never read from this website again
We’re all very happy…for you, I mean :o)
“… after 75 years of Israel’s ongoing theft of Palestine from the inhabitants.”
Say what??? Ahhh… I see… you’ve bought into the nonsense that somehow the Palestinians had a homeland and a functioning government in 1948. Sorry!
This land was promised to Israel by God thousands of years ago (go read Genesis). Abraham was promised all land from the Nile to the Euphrates River. It WILL happen someday regardless of what man wants or thinks.
In 1948 nothing lived in “Palestine” but a bunch of nomadic tribes. No nation… no recognized government… no nothing. Israel moved in and has made this land in the Middle East blossom with orchards and industry that didn’t exist before.
All the “land for peace” deals brokered over the last 40-50 years have done nothing but impoverish Israel and embolden their enemies. The Palestinians have never wanted peace… just Israelis dead. Israel has had enough suffering at the hands of these people.
Go over to the Gateway Pundit website to read story after story of atrocities committed against Israel by the so called peace loving Palestinians. You’ll learn why they’re bombing the place to smitherines. Don’t buy into the MSM hype of Israel=bad, Palestinians=good. If they are so wronged, then why are people like George Soros paying people to riot? No, this is a well funded PR campaign to make Israel look bad. Do more research please.
Oh look! An Evangitard! Flash, you really need to trademark that.
Yep. Right here is where my deleted comment used to live!
@Wayne
The war won’t end in Palestine, that is just an excuse for launching the Oded-Yinon Project in earnest. You understand and are ready to put your skin on the pike for that, correct?
Adulterous Trump pushed and endorsed the BEAUTUFUL Warp Speed vaxx globally btw.
His baby STILL!
What a biased piece of crap this article is. No mention of the Hamas atack on Isreal. Or the fact that Isreal has a right to self defence. I’m done reading The Burning Platform. It has shown its true colors.
You might want to learn to spell the name of your home nation before you try to defend its genocide.
Most people that mis spell words often speak other languages, but most Americans are dumb as a box of rocks to eve n think outside their psyop box.
Don’t feel like you have to justify yourself to a room full of ass hats. They got nothing.
He was doing great till he said the theft of the land from the Palestinians. You sir, are thoroughly wrong on your history and evidence. There has NEVER been a Palestinian State and for very good reasons. It was NOT their land and NEVER was. They were squatters throughout history and they KNEW it. The Romans KNEW it, all nations knew it.
You don’t know your Bible history and you sir, SHOULD not proclaim what you said. You are ignorant in this matter and I ask you SHUT YOUR BIG mouth about it.
God told the Children of Israel to kill every man, woman, child and beast when He gave them the Promised Land. They disobeyed and that is why the Hamas terrorists and Palestinians are there plaguing them today. None of the other countries surrounding Israel want these terrorists and as a result, people like the author of this article and all of the other leftists chanting in the streets of America and Europe will be the reason why those terrorists end up in America. And if you think Trump isn’t deep state, you should ask yourself why he is still taking credit for fast tracking the death vaccines.
No other Islamic nation will host Palestinians because they know every Likud arranged false flag will result in their country being targeted for “reprisals”.
So you agree with Joe Biden that we should take Hamas into America.
Better to let Gaza be wholly sacrificed so the world can turn its back on the covetous.
Ah, So you admit that you are a Jew hater.
No, I hate those who do not understand what mitzvot Hashem requires from studying Torah.
How about you, Jay… besides all unchosen?
You are absolutely correct Jay, historically and Biblically. Do not back down.
We know that the Devil and his demons hate the Jews and as we move closer to the prophetic times spoken of in the Bible we know that the whole world will come against Israel and the Jews. This is to be expected just like the blood that flows to the horses bridles in the valley of Armageddon.
I wonder what would have happened if Iran fired only 10% of it’s missile at Israel and killed 100,000 innocent people? Let me guess, Israel has no right to self defense? Sounds familiar. Sounds like a democrat talking point. Then again 90% of the Israeli population were vaccinated with the clot shot, so 90% of the population are living on borrowed time. The entire situation with Israel is so convoluted it’s difficult to know what exactly is going on. One thing is for certain, Israel is miniscule, almost negligible in area & size to the rest of the Middle East and you have to wonder what this is all about? It’s about hate, nothing more. Why is it that the Palestinian’s stated goals and Iran’s stated goals are simply ignored or glossed over by the media and politicians? There is absolutely no interest in negotiating with the Palestinians and Iran, they simply want Israel destroyed and all Jews dead. Immediately after, it is all Christians and the West that must be annihilated. Someone tell me how you negotiate? Paul Craig Roberts, what is your malfunction? Tell everyone why the Middle East countries refuse to take in Palestinian refugees, especially Jordan and Egypt. Well?
Does something smell with what happened in Israel that allowed terrorists to breach the border and massacre 1,600 people? Yes. This does not change the fact of what these animals did to those innocent people, does it? People really need to be educated about Islam and it’s highly questionable & fabricated history. I’m sorry, but the facts matter. These people want all Jews and Christians exterminated and the idiots in charge want to negotiate a peace? WTF? Israel’s land mass is 0.1% of the Middle East people. This is about hatred and evil, nothing more. And before I forget, where did the 10,000 dead figure come from Paul Craig Roberts?
It’s all about oil and the money oil brings in. The hatred for the Jews is because the tribe of Asher in Israel is the lowest point in the oil reservoirs of the Middle East in Israel and the Jews won’t give it up to the Kings of the earth who have lusted after the promised land. All the major oil reserves in the Middle East run down and bottom out under Israel. “Asher shall dip his foot in oil.” Deuteronomy 33:24-25
The vast number of dead are Hamas terrorists. They dress in civilian clothing. Israel is saving Arab lives out there. They protected civilians trying to getout while Hamas snipers were picking them off. All the hospitals have weapons and terror centres under them. Gaza is such a wicked place, and many of its inhabitants long to be free of the terror and corruption. It’s good it’s being levelled.
Awww! With all the underground miliary tunnels, a command node under the Al-Sharif hospital, etc… I’m SHURE Hamas and the Palestinians just wanted PEACE…Everytime Israel has had a ceasefire for decades because of world preasure, Hamas and other terrorist groups just regroup and resupply weapons for their next planned attack.
I stand firmly behind Israel, as any thinking person should. Winston Churchill correctly described Islam as ‘the most retrograde force in human history.’ Read this outstanding piece and learn the truth about HAMAS and radical Islam.

What atrocity? no atrocity here, who started this? hammass!
What about the Israeli babies, elderly, civilians killed by hammas, palestinians?
They surely rejoiced when they saw all the Israelis murdered, raped etc.
The palestinians should blame hammas for all this pain now!
Sheesh, Scofield, that lying sack of shit, really did his job well. If the people residing in modern Israel are really descendants of the 12 tribes, this is a family fight that has been going on for a couple millennia. Never get involved in a family fight if you are not part of that family. I do not root for either side and I agree with Admin. I will counsel my grandsons to avoid a draft.
Islam is a cult as is modern “Judaism”. None of them live under the Law of Moses.
Everyone should read The Incredible Scofield and His Book by Joseph M Canfield.
Has not Isreal told the Palestinians to leave Gaza. Are they supposed to halt digging these Hamas children of Satan out of their sewers. The Palestinians stay because they support Hamas. So be it.
And just who is reporting all these unconfirmed deaths, Hamas.
You hypocrites never expressed your sorrow when 600,000 people died by the hands of Basher El-Assad of Syria, but now because of anti-Semitism, you all of a sudden care about the Palestinian people? You need to ask yourself why do you now care so much!
