Alan Dershowitz, a Harvard Law professor and prominent legal analyst, has witnessed firsthand the biased and unethical conduct of the judge presiding over Donald Trump’s trial. In an exclusive account, Dershowitz describes how the judge threatened to strike the testimony of the defense’s key witness for a non-existent offense, demonstrating a clear prejudice against the defendant. Dershowitz argues that the public’s inability to witness these proceedings firsthand, due to the lack of live television coverage, has led to biased reporting and misinformation. The importance of transparency and accountability in the judicial system is highlighted, as Dershowitz calls for the televising of trials to ensure fairness and accurate public understanding.

The defense in Donald Trump’s Manhattan trial faces the challenge of exposing the deceit of District Attorney Alvin Bragg and the dishonesty of star witness Michael Cohen. Davidson’s testimony described Cohen as profane, offensive, and threatening, revealing Cohen’s bitterness and obsession with Trump. Cohen’s recent TikTok videos and fundraising efforts, combined with his past fabrications and the extortion investigation against him, raise doubts about his credibility. Bragg’s persistence in prosecuting Trump despite Cohen’s unreliable testimony highlights the political nature of the case. The defense argues that Trump’s reimbursements to Cohen did not violate election laws, and that Bragg is twisting statutes to support his charges.
