As a Replublican , I have the up most respect for Alan Dershowitz ! He undersands & respects the Constitution of the United States of America !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The difference is that Alan Dershowitz is a liberal, not a leftist. It is endlessly strange how most liberals who claim to want a color blind society, free speech, and all of the other liberal values ally themselves with the open advocates of repressive totalitarianism on the left. Dershowitz is one of the few that recognizes the fact that tyranny is tyranny, regardless of what its advocates call themselves.
utmost 😁. Good comment!

@@christineshotton824 exactly!
This should be thrown out immediately and the judge put in prison
This is communism 101
Marxism
I literally scroll through the comments to find that someone said it. It's also Call Democracy. They love to use nice sounding words to hide the evil BUT! You will know them by their fruits.
The Constitutional Republic is hanging by the threads. So all the jelly beans with hurt feelings, grow up, put away childish things and get a grip! Vote Trump 2024!
"I lost half of my friends when I defended Trump" they were never your friends Dersch.
If they WERE real friends, they would BE friends. I learned long time ago.
Exactly. My family actually said they were smarter than me!!
The democrat deep state and judiciary is going to go after Biden? Sorry, Alan. The "Oh everybody does it" thing you democrats use when you get caught isn't going to work her. YOU DEMOCRATS ARE GUILTY. 100% YOU. Until you renounce the Democrat party for what they are doing now, you have no credibility.
He should defend him again now.
No there is a serious problem out there with media spreading hate mongering!!!! They do everything th
When you pack the DoJ and the Bench with animals, you turn the Courts into a zoo.
Not just animals but pack animals
Kangaroo Court
You've described the Demorats
@@DavidJohnson-yg8qm
Democrats= Ass-Kangaroo chimera?
They only win because they project their craziness and unlawful interpretations on us!
Amazing that Dershowitz is 85 years old! Compare him to Biden at 81 .
And about to release another book and in the middle of writing another. 🤷🏻♂️
There is justice by up high!! Bidens " day of salvation" has shipped off...already.
Exactly
Dershowitz is sharpe as a tack.
He gets the best of everything, he's been rich from day one.
Alan is absolutely right. We the People Decide. Not the current government.
If they don't rig the votes again this time. That is why Biden won't close the boarders. He has papers given to them that comes across the boarders a paper that tells them to vote for Biden. He wants their votes. They are not American Citizens & should not be able to vote!!!
But, IMHO, we do not want the "pure democracy" the demoncrats profess they want. That is mob rule and the tyranny of the majority. We want the Constitutional Republic that prescribed. The only problem with that is We the People have been slowly de-educated and mis-educated in order to allow that to happen. We see that everyday and it is hard to get people to realize they need to intelligently participate every day in order to make our Constitutional systems work.
DEI = Didn’t Earn It
Well put!!
It was his money, what is the crime?
That's precisely the point, there isn't one. They will try to make out that he stole the election because if the story had come out he would have lost. Thats my guess.
But how they are going to prove intent is beyond me.... oh wait.... its new york.. proof is irrelevant.
Absolutely outrageous
As an attorney of 25 years I cannot remember ever such petty charges ridiculous. So many real victims who never find justice
Mayorkass is a waste of space.
Yes& the dems would not hold a trial when Mayorkas was brought up on impeachment. They just let him go. Not right, he needs to be impeached along with Harris & Biden & Polosi, FBI, DOJ, IRS, CIA & ALL THE OTHER ONES THAT LIES TO PROTECT BIDEN... THEY ARE SUPPOST TO WORK FOR US, "WE THE PEOPLE". INSTEAD THEY LIE TO AMERICANS & ONLY FILL THEIR OWN POCKETS!!! EVERYONE SHOULD VOTE REPLUBLICAN THIS TIME... 🙏🙏
We're already in danger. Lots of sheeples
Makes you wonder 🤔 if something is in the water.
@@inquizative44or in the media?
Neo-puritanisim!
You mean the Dem base🤷♀️they can’t help themselves. Not the brightest bulbs in a chandelier………….
Like the lefts base? 🤷♀️ Nobody’s ever accused them of being the brightest bulbs in chandeliers…….
Alan is a voice that MUST be heard !
There is no law in America
They don't care
Who is they? And who are we?
Yep100% correct
mr. dershowitz is right, we cant let them set that sort of precedent cause its going to get used on someone else next, and i dont want it to be me or you reading this
That's where all this is headed, and why DT said he is only standing in their way.
That is the truth about what's happening here. And, the "movement" against DT started, the minute he won!
I don't believe he enjoys this constant conflict. He has to use it wisely in defense of himself, and his defense of ALL people. That is what he's doing.
And I say, thank you, for doing all that you can to stand in their way!
No, it will only be used by people whose power is being threatened by someone they totally hate.
@@annetteurbanik3001. Kinda like what Biden is doing to Trump right now……
Mr Dershowitz is excellent.
We need his honesty and guidance.
In Dark times his light is solely needed.
Love Alan Dershowitz. So knowledgeable and intelligent.
Love his interviews!
Alan Dershowitz is one who knows his business. Every time I have heard him speak is a learning experience.
This case needs to be thrown out now. Should never have been concocted in first place.
Alan is a rare thing, an honest Democrat
Didn't he say he left the democrat Party, or did he just say he's not voting for Biden.
Old school moderate Democrat.
NO SUCH THING!!!
Dershowitz is always the best. A true American treasure 🇺🇸
Enjoy him now because there won't be anymore being made.
I trust You, Mr Dershowitz…..
🇺🇸🌟
The blackmailers should be fined. Donald is being blackmailed!!!!
Stormy and Cohen hatched a plan and Cohen paid off Stormy without Trump even knowing until afterward. I wonder if Cohen took a kickback from the extortion. Seems creepy porn lawyer Michael Avanati may have some dirt on Stormy and Cohen.
Donald is not being blackmailed, Biden is by Ukraine.
They could care less
Yes, I believe you are correct... There ARE "laws on the book" prohibiting EXTORTION; ¿Are there NOT?!!!
Dersh is a maga sort of guy. Good going Dersh .You earned a Trump Bible.
He voted against trump and has said he will do so again! He's not a Maga guy, he's a law guy!
Excuse Me, Black Mail should be charged in response!
I don't think anyone cares about hush money, only if you are in politics!!!
Trump has probably been paying hush money long before he decided to run for president. A lot of public figures do that. It's like businesses who hire companies to "scrub" the Internent of negative references. If Trump had used campaign donations, they would have charged him with campaign violations. If you have rich and powerful enemies out to get you, there is little you can do about it.
Congress has a discretionary fund they use just for paying off sex charges, whether true or not.
No, it is only being used to "get" him.
Little man is screwed say
Dershowitz is mistaken when he states the majority of American's support additional aid to Ukraine.
I don't!
It is the weakest case. Its a mundane business records case.
I watched the OJ trial on TV and I was completely shocked at the outcome
Look into Glen Edward Rogers he admitted to the killings! in fact when he went to trial he gave his mom a brooch that he took from Nicole and his mom wore it at his trial! Look it up! it's true! there was a lot of stuff in that trial of OJ that did not add up!
BTW Professor, I do not agree with you an all things as my post below demonstrates, but I am probably one of MILLIONS now, who can say you certainly have my Respect and Admiration. Well done, brother. Hang in there.
Yes Alan is quite right. The UK has caught the judiciary bug too!
Really appreciate 1st hand reporting from such a knowledgeable wise honest guest! CONTINUE 1ST HAND! WE NEED TRUTH 👏👏🙏💪
The danger is here.
A,very principled man.
I'm 100% with you, from Roswell, New Mexico, USA
Ever look for alien stuff in your town?
If he paided I would think he was being blackmailed by that chick.
Dear Mr. Alan Dershowitz ,
In my book you are a hero. I thank God for your example and your courage in spite of the personal cost.
I only pray that I will not go into hiding like some of your associates when it’s my time to take that stand. I pray that I will have the courage to speak the truth as I know it no matter what it may cost.
By the grace of God I will.
Sincere thanks to you
It is an outrage this shouldn’t be happening
Congratulations Alan. An honorable man. Screw Martha’s Vineyard
Someone like Alan Dershowitz is the right one to point out the abuse of the legal system.
Be a loving Dad and walk into a divorce court
I am proud of you. God bless you.
As a CENTRIST, I've voted for candidates of both parties. As a REALIST, I reject a variety of things that either party may promulgate from time to time. Alan was way out on the Left Wing for a long time...... But.....Experience......and Intellect has channeled him toward the MIDDLE. PS: Alan, you don't need those knee jerk liberals in their mansions by the ocean. Obama talks about the environment.... and lives in two mansions (DC and by the Ocean) that SUCK ENERGY. Hypocrisy will always exist on the Left and the Right. BUT ALAN...... WE LOVE TO SEE YOU AND YOUR INTELLECT TELLING THE TRUTH WHEN THE TRUTH IS NEEDED TO BE TOLD! WELCOME TO THE CENTER....THE CORRECT PLACE TO LET THE TRUTH BE KNOWN!!
COME ON TRUMP KEEP GOING WE ALL WANTYOU PRESIDENT
Alan Dershowitz spells it out so clear, so just, equitable, and fairly humane and civilized. 😮
In Trump we Trust 🇺🇸 🇬🇧
Oddly enough, Stormy Daniels, the extortionist, never went to trial.
Stormy starmer 😂
Because it's not about him paying her off. It's about lying about it and doing it in order to interfere with the 2016 election.
Her attorney in prison for 20 years for extortion lol. Can’t make this up
Trump didn't have a relationship with Daniels. She tried to blackmail him before he ran in 2016. He paid her off to avoid the bad press.
She’s a grifter and wanted to be the first porn star on the Apprentice. She was a problem and would not go away. Trump knew she had a kid and thought if she got some money/ she would leave him alone.
Make up a crime...this is what the IRS does all the time.
And traitors voted for these people.
I agree Alan, but people in NY are desperate to execute what they were paid to do; stop Trump at all cost.
It goes to show that a democracy really relies on a culture of fair play. If you can use the courts to go after your opponent and few people care then how is it any different to Russia or Egypt? If the institutions are so easily corrupted and without any public push back then what democracy or constitution do you really have?
The USA is a republic. Democracy sucks. Mob rule.
The electoral college is what the dems r after. Coalitions..many schemes!!! Back off dems!!
It is the apex of frivolous. The law field needs ethics!!!!!
Which is why back in the 80s they opened our universities to the unqualified.
AD puts respect for legal concerns above political concerns.
He is correct.
When our legal system becomes entangled and controlled by political heavyweights, we have Stalin-Beria II
Great guest
Too intelligent to continue as a Democrat. Does he not see where the world is headed?
Its a misdemeanor at most.
So if I have a parking ticket and they add assumed criminal intent will that be murder?
Pretty much.
They're molding the law, like putty, so that they can fashion the crime to take anyone out who is a political danger to them.
Maybe maybe not
It will be anything they need to do whatever they want to you. If you object you’ll only make it worse.
To get rid of you. Like the Nazis trying to wipe out a whole generation of Jewish people because they were hated.
If you're Donald Trump. That's no more crooked than what they've charged Trump with. Non-crimes made crimes.
It's the same as doing it the WEF way. To hell with what's just, just do it their way.
"You are nit always popular being right" - Alan Dershowitz, probably 😂
The Devil is also known as the Prince of Lies ? The second greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he is the good guy ?
The root of the root of the issues is that ladies could vote.
Is Mr. Dershowitz still at this date a Democrat? This is not the same party of 50 plus years ago. He's definitely knows it's NOT!!!
He Is and very delusioned with them. Says he won't vote for Biden. And this Israel stuff may make him consider different party
Great guy!
MY GOD, WHAT A BRILLIANT AND FAIR MAN!
Brilliant!
Watch every Alan commentary as he is one of most relevant legal mind in usa
I don't think we are all in danger because this is clearly targeted at one man. Trump.You need to reform the state judiciary to stop political elections of judges.
If him, tomorrow, you. Communism is clear and metastisizes.
Political : candidates shld require vetting!! I want to know what they stand for?? What do they believe in, if anything?
You need to stop the American voters gagging to destroy the country they live in.
Except if they are allowed to do this to Trump, nothing stops them from doing it to anyone else, that's the danger.
True, but God shall prevail. MAGA AGAIN, President Trump 2024, Saving our Country again.
Unfortunately for we mere humans, God is sometimes willing to work on very long time scales when his people are blind.
Very good interview. Well researched and two intelligent minds who wanted to inform the listeners rather than propogandise them.
If his lawyer cashed the checks and put them on his tax return as income then they have no case.
I saw a copy of the check & it was made out to his lawyer for services rendered.
Wrong about OJ. I watched the trial and thought the case was incredibly strong.
When the police planted some of the evidence, they had to discount all of the evidence. Hence he walked. Everyone knows he was guilty except the racially biased.
Yeah but the glove didn't fit etc
@@TheMacfreelance Have you ever tried on an old, perviously wet glove that had been in a freezer for 2 years?
@@TheMacfreelance because the leather had completely dried out and the glove was shriveled and hard. However, had OJ tried a little bit, he probably could’ve gotten it on Sunday.
So where s the killers? Dna was ubiquitous. Ludicrous it wasn't in the Santa Monica area. A travesty.
It was to protect his wife and children😢
He is coward do something right for all.
Liberty is the goal - well said, well understood as the Jews do. India has forgotten this main point.
Thank you, Alan Dersowtitz!
Some valid points, meritocracy is perhaps more important than democracy.
Having a segregated spirituality inherently leads to a schizophrenic society.
That spirituality consisting of many variants, can only exacerbate things.
Universal Humanism is the path forward.
Thank you , Mr. Dershowitz.
You are right…bizarre! What a tragedy. What outrage this whole trial.
Bring back meritocracy
Freddie, ❤ your tie!!
This is outrageous! This opens the door to put anyone you dont like on trial... This is wrong!
The justice system is and has been a danger to everyone who steps in a courtroom in this country since 1938.
Where is the BAR association on all of this?
The Judges that even allow this in their court
should be disbarred.
Great interview. Respect for Alan Dershowitz!
We shal all be in danger : What do you think dictatorship is about ?
In the list of political prosecutions, well persecution in this case Tommy Robinson. 34 policemen and tear gas for effectively having breakfast and wanting to attend a rally to report on it. Trial starts 22 April
thank you dr dershowitz..u are spot on! keep going ,speak!
"When They came for Them,,, I said Nothing.
When They came for You,,, I said Nothing.
When They came for Me,,, No One was left,,, to Say Anything"...
That goes alot deeper ! The system is evil USA has commited many war crimes and supplied arms to who ever . Now that evil system comes for you yet you stayed silent for years !
Let's remember the Johnny Cochrin rule of thumb..."If the glove don't fit, you must acquit."
Thank you very much for you very important and brave job, dear Mr Dershowitz.❤
Respect and love for Mr. Alan Dershowitz, he is like a very interesting, great teacher for social-politic public life. Orhan Baki, a supporter by former President Donald Trump from Şenlikköy- Florya/ Istanbul- Türkiye.
One here for Big D❤
Boy if I needed an attorney, I would love to have Alan dershowitz by my side❤
He gets everyone off.
Simply put, the Law of the Land should only be Judged Blindly!
The vast majority wants to give aid to the Ukraine?
The vast majority of the uninformed, and all those who profit financially.
I love Alan “fair” Dershowitz ❤❤❤
Thanks very much, Sir.
He is always the smartest man I've heard in my life and I'm 83 years old. I've listened to a lot of supposedly smart people
So the first question should be: are you pro or against Trump and if he says pro and then says it is a rubbish case , then don’t believe a word he says. If he says he is against Trump and it is a sure thing, don’t believe him. If he say he is against Trump and it is a weak case, only then could you give him credit
You’re a genius
From Wiki; In January 2020, Dershowitz joined President Donald Trump's legal team as Trump was being tried on impeachment charges in the Senate. Dershowitz's addition to the team was notable, as commentators pointed out that he was a Hillary Clinton supporter and had offered occasionally controversial television defences of Trump in the preceding two years. The statement announcing Dershowitz's joining the team said that Dershowitz was "nonpartisan when it comes to the Constitution." Dershowitz said he would not accept any compensation, and if he was paid anything, he would donate it to charity. He defended his representation of Trump, which was controversial among Trump critics, saying, "I'm there to try to defend the integrity of the constitution. That benefits President Trump in this case." Dershowitz said that his role would be limited to presenting oral arguments before the Senate opposing impeachment.
