It's all over except for the jury decision. About the only excitement to be
garnered is that the jury sent a request to the judge to review Cohen's and
Pecker's testimonies and the judge's instructions, which I guess means someone

Hat Hair cites Merchan to Jury: Choose Your Own Adventure, Jonathan Turley@JonathanTurley
"...Merchan just delivered the coup de grace instruction. He said that there
is no need to agree on what occurred. They can disagree on what the crime was
among the three choices. Thus, this means that they could split 4-4-4
and he will still treat them as unanimous..." Capt. Ed at Hat Hair adds "Needless to say, this is absurdly
unconstitutional. Defendants are entitled to know the clear charges against
them, and prosecutors are required to prove each element of the case. In this
trial, the only reason these are felonies is because Bragg insists that Trump
violated other laws, but never even presented a case on any of the three
theories." At Da Caller, Never-Trumper Andy McCarthy Says Trump Judge’s Instructions Are ‘Antithesis Of Standard’
As Jurors Don’t ‘Have To Agree On’ Crime. Capt. Ed, "There's already so much reversible error in this case that it almost feels
as though Merchan has hit the 'f*** it' stage." Fusilli Spock@awstar11, "This just solidifies that Merchan has no expectation that a conviction
will survive appeal and his one and only goal is to get to conviction, at any
cost." At TownHall Sarah Arnold finds a
CNN Analyst Shocked by Judge Merchan's Handling of Jury Instructions and Matt Vespa says Brace Yourselves for a Trump Conviction Because the Judge Just Tilted the
Scales. Althouse is unconvinced, "The judge has now arrived at the reason prosecutors charged Trump with
falsifying business records as a felony: Because, they say..." ""... he covered up a second crime, violating the state election law
that forbids a conspiracy to aid a person’s election by unlawful means. The
judge didn’t call specific attention to the layered nature of the two crimes —
but this is where things get complicated. Some of the jurors are taking
notes." From
the NYT's live reporting
of Justice Merchan's reading his instructions to the jury."
NewsMax has one hopeful Report: One Juror Seems to Agree With Defense. At Da Caller, Jonathan Turley Says Trump Defense Made Right Move By Not Calling Alvin
