Honestly with Bari Weiss - BONUS: Is the Trump Verdict a Witch Trial? Or Justice?

On May 30, former president Donald Trump was found guilty of 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in connection with hush money payments to adult actress Stormy Daniels. His sentencing has been scheduled for July 11, four days before the Republican National Convention. He faces a possible sentence of four years for each count.


If you were on Twitter or Instagram or your social media platform of choice that historic Thursday afternoon, then you will have noticed two diametrically opposed reactions. On one side, people celebrated like it was the very best day of their entire lives, as justice, at last, was served. On the other side of the space-time Twitter-uum, it was a very, very somber day for the country. 


So. . . which is it? Did Manhattan district attorney Alvin Bragg at long last rightly and justly prosecute Trump for felony crimes? Or was this an obviously political witch trial and an abuse of the U.S. justice system? In other words: Have we crossed the Rubicon in American politics? After all, District Attorney Bragg campaigned on a promise to bring charges against Trump.


And either way, the reality is that the presidential front-runner is now a convicted felon. What does that mean? For voters? (Spoiler: it made them want to give him. . . more money.) For future elections? And for this country?


To debate these questions on Honestly today are Sarah Isgur and Mark Zauderer.


Sarah is a columnist for The Dispatch and an ABC News contributor. She clerked for the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals and served as the Justice Department spokeswoman during the Trump administration.


Mark is a veteran New York litigator who sits on a committee that screens applicants for the same court that will hear Trump’s appeal.

Everything Everywhere Daily - Ninjas (Encore)

Ninjas are awesome. They’re silent, they can turn invisible, and they can totally flip out and kill people, especially their mortal enemies…pirates. 

…or at least that is what popular culture would like you to believe. 

Were ninjas really as powerful as they are made out to be? Were they the ultimate silent assassins?

Learn more about ninjas, real ninjas, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
