Trump was convicted of 34 charges of falsifying business records with intent to conceal another crime. Alvin Bragg and his allies defend the prosecution as just, but their defenses are poor. It is a poor defense of Bragg’s prosecution to say, as a New York Times columnist did, that it was based on a “mountain” of evidence, because more than evidence is required to make a prosecution just.  Likewise, it is a poor defense of Bragg’s prosecution to say that a jury of Trump’s peers handed down the verdict because more than a jury verdict is required to make a prosecution just. We would not say, for instance, that the prosecution of Richard and Mildred Loving for violating Virginia’s 1924 law outlawing interracial marriage was just even though there was ample evidence that Richard was white and Mildred black. Neither would we say that the conviction of Percival Coffin was just when the judge refused to tell the jury that Coffin was innocent until proven guilty. A prosecution cannot be just unless the law and the process used to enforce it are just. Evidence and jury verdicts are only two parts of a process that delivers justice, and if any part of that process is tainted, its outcome is tainted too. The first step in this process is writing and publicizing laws. Laws are unjust if they are enacted unconstitutionally, are not made known to the people they govern, fail to identify what they forbid, or require people to do the impossible. No jury can pronounce a just verdict under an unjust law no matter how much evidence it sees. The second step is enforcement. Enforcement is unjust if the government claims power it does not have, wields the law not at bad actions but at people it thinks are bad, selectively spares its friends and targets its enemies, or fails to tell its target how he has violated the law. No jury can issue a just verdict against a man dragged unjustly into court no matter how much evidence it has against him.  The third step is the trial. A trial is unjust if due process is denied. If the judge is not impartial, the trial is unjust. If the judge allows the government to introduce unduly prejudicial or otherwise inadmissible evidence, the trial is unjust. If the man is denied the opportunity to present his best defense, the trial is unjust. If the judge instructs the jury wrongly about the law, the trial is unjust. Only after all of this does the jury come in. The jury may be open-minded, impartial, and fair, but none of that can cure an injustice that occurred before the jury deliberated.  Here, Bragg and Judge Juan Merchan tainted the process before any evidence was introduced and before the jury reached its verdict.  While campaigning, Bragg made a promise to get his man and, once elected, kept it. To do so, he twisted and warped the law to create a crime previously unknown to anyone and failed to notify Trump what that crime was until the end of the trial when, even then, he offered not one, but multiple theories that the jury could choose from. Merchan is biased; he allowed Bragg to introduce irrelevant and highly prejudicial evidence; denied Trump the right to call a witness necessary to rebut one of Bragg’s legal theories; declined to sequester the jury; and failed to properly instruct the jury about a central element of Bragg’s case. In Trump’s prosecution, we can’t say that the law was just because we do not know what the law was. And we can’t say that the enforcement and trial were just without lying through our teeth.   The criminal justice system aims at procedural justice, the best sort of justice you can get on this side of eternity. For it to hit its mark, it must remain a process that transcends any of the individuals—judge, prosecutor, defendant—that participate in it. The moment a judge or prosecutor undermines the process, even to get just one man, it ceases to be a process that transcends the people in it and becomes, instead, a tool no better than the person who wields it. Worse, in that form, its power to work injustice will be inversely proportional to its former ability to work justice. A great system of justice, once broken, will become a tool of great injustice.   Bragg and Merchan ignored procedure, took justice into their own biased and fallible hands, and, inevitably, delivered injustice. They deny it, of course, claiming to be faithful defenders of the rule of law, but it’s now clear that they pay lip service to the rule of law only to destroy it.   They were not the first to take a hammer to it, but they hit the hardest. It is not clear that the damage they did to the rule of law can be repaired, at least not while so many Americans support and defend their error.   The post Bad Defenses of Bragg’s Trump Prosecution appeared first on The Daily Signal.

Few artefacts encapsulate the potent fusion of power, propaganda, and currency like Henry VII’s gold sovereign. As a coin both tangible and symbolic, the gold sovereign of Henry VII not only reflected the economic stability of his era but also served as a formidable instrument in shaping his propaganda and consolidating his grip on power as England’s first Tudor monarch. An original specimen is held at The Royal Mint Museum. Henry VII’s reign, commencing in the tumultuous aftermath of the Wars of the Roses, was characterised by the urgent need for stability and legitimacy. Amidst the political turbulence, the gold sovereign emerged not merely as a means of trade but as a meticulously crafted tool of statecraft, bearing the weight of monarchic authority and projecting an image of prosperity and control. Here we explore how and why Henry VII used English coinage to help convey his power across his kingdom. Henry VII’s rise to power After defeating his Yorkist adversary Richard III, last of the Plantagenets, at the Battle of Bosworth Field, Henry Tudor was officially crowned King Henry VII on 30 October 1485. His coronation heralded the end of the bloody Wars of the Roses and brought in a new line of monarchs, with Henry VII being the first of the Tudor dynasty. Henry VII was the last king of England to win his throne on the battlefield, and his coronation brought much-needed peace to the country after three decades of conflict. With it came the end of the medieval period. Such a monumental achievement spelled an equally monumental shift in power and – much like the monarchs that came before him – Henry VII was keen to convey this power and establish his authority. Currency and its conveyance of power Henry did this in part through the currency of his kingdom. As well as reintroducing more realistic portraiture on English coinage, a practice that had not been seen consistently since the Romans, Henry VII also brought several new coins into the English currency, including the iconic gold Sovereign – the first £1 piece in English history. Introduced in 1489 when Henry VII demanded a ‘new money of gold’, whilst the gold Sovereign wasn’t the first gold coin to be struck, it was the largest and most valuable English coin ever issued at that point. The original design featured an image depicting Henry VII sat on his throne – complete with a crown, orb and sceptre – whilst the reverse displayed the Royal Arms atop a backdrop dominated by the unmistakable Tudor rose. This new coin symbolised power, and reinforced Henry VII’s authority as a new monarch.  This Sovereign features a huge Tudor rose that covers the whole of one side (tails) of it – a symbol of Henry VII, his house and his reign. Everything about this coin is hugely symbolic, and all trying to solidify Henry VII’s power. On the head’s side of the coin is Henry himself, sat on the throne wearing all the royal regalia – including the crown and holding an orb and sceptre. Everything about this coin is trying to cement Henry’s power as the new king, which was particularly important given the country had been in civil war for the past 30 years.

When Henry VII ascended the throne in 1485, he faced the immediate challenge of securing his reign – and the Tudor Dynasty – against political and economic rebellions. Recognising the pivotal role of revenue in establishing stability, he sought to finance a robust royal army.  Historically, the Crown had relied on the slow-moving Exchequer for its financial needs, and initially Henry reverted to using this. However, audits could take years to complete, meaning the Crown was always short of money. By 1487, Henry’s financial struggles prompted him to modernise royal income collection by appointing the King’s Chamber as the principal institution managing royal revenue.  This relatively new institution had previously been utilised by the Yorkist family, when Edward IV used it to run his finances. Whilst the Chamber lacked fully-established operating procedures, its comparatively more informal processes actually gave it greater flexibility. The Chamber went on to take charge of nearly all aspects of royal income, and effectively oversaw the national treasury, while the Privy Chamber handled Henry’s personal expenditure. Henry was one of the few monarchs to process his own accounts, keeping meticulous records, and even counting bags of coins himself to scrutinise finances and balance the books. Henry ensured he appointed expert advisors with financial acumen, with two men, Sir Thomas Lovell and Sir John Heron, holding the post of Treasurer of the Chamber. However Henry also worked alongside both men, checking the accounts they had already gone over, and personally signing-off each page. Rather than this being a miserly act, Henry’s scrutiny reflected his focus on wealth accumulation for control, influence and power.

As well as maximising tax revenue, Henry also gained wealth from an illicit trade in the dye-fixed alum, and benefitted from the peace facilitated by the end of the Wars of the Roses. His resulting substantial wealth accumulation and financial prudence meant Henry was able to leave a considerable inheritance to his son and successor, Henry VIII. However, Henry VIII would not turn out to be as prudent.

Some countries have a bounty of animal species in one particular group: Peru and Columbia, for example, have the most butterfly species of any country. By contrast, North America has only two species of venomous lizard and only one is found in the United States – the Gila monster.Description:The Gila monster (Heloderma suspectum) is the largest lizard in the States and can grow to 56 centimeters (22 inches) long, according to the National Park Service. They can also weigh around 1.8 kilograms (4 pounds). Not dissimilar to a Muller Corner yogurt, the surface of the lizard's skin is covered with small bead-like protrusions in a wide range of orange or pinky stripes and patterns. These scaley beads are actually called osteoderms and are tiny hard chips of tissue embedded within the skin for protection against predators such as bobcats, coyotes, hawks, and foxes. Ecology:As National Geographic explains, Gila monsters live underground lives and are strictly nocturnal. They use their long claws to dig burrows, and will return to the same burrows year after year. They live mostly in Arizona and Mexico though they are found in other American states, and their name comes from the Gila River. They are found in the Sonoran Desert, the Chihuahuan Desert, and the Mojave Desert across the US. The diet of the Gila monster is varied, consisting of birds, reptile eggs, and occasionally small mammals – they are even known to climb cacti in search of bird eggs. Inside the tail of a Gila monster is a fat store that helps keep them alive when prey is scarce in the winter. Typically solitary, Gila monsters can be found together in the breeding season. Clutches generally contain two to 12 eggs and can overwinter in the burrow and hatch after 130 days. The Gila monster is listed as Near Threatened on the IUCN Red List, but the population is thought to be declining due to habitat destruction and illegal exploitation by commercial and private collectors. Venom:The Gila monster's venom is made by a row of glands in the lower jaw of the lizard, small grooves in each of its teeth help the venom make its way into prey. Typically though, it is thought that the venom is more often used defensively than when hunting prey species. A man died earlier this year after being bitten by his pet Gila, it is thought that he suffered an allergic reaction to the venom, which while said to be painful is not typically fatal to humans.In fact, research has even looked into if compounds from the venom could be used to help treat diabetes in the future.
