    crossing the U.S. border illegally is a crime under federal law.
    • First illegal entry is a federal misdemeanor under 8 U.S.C. § 1325.
    • Illegal re-entry after deportation is a federal felony under 8 U.S.C. § 1326,
    • Either way crossing the border illegally is a crime

    got me a non-sequitur (since @ROXRAN was downplaying Trump's felony)

    The @No Worries legal theory: It is only a felony if the LAW says so.

    The Donald Trump legal theory: Despite breaking as many laws as possible, I am always innocent.

    The so-called “@No Worries legal theory” — that something is only a felony if the statute explicitly says so — highlights a key difference between Trump’s charges and ordinary criminal conduct.

    • Trump’s alleged felony hinges on falsifying business records, which is normally a misdemeanor under New York law. It only becomes a felony if it’s done to conceal another crime, such as a campaign finance violation. That’s a loophole-like elevation prosecutors have to prove, making it legally and factually difficult. His defense argues that the underlying crime wasn’t proven, so the felony charge is tenuous.
    • Contrast that with ordinary citizens: actively interfering with federal agents, including ICE, is a clear, unambiguous felony under federal law, with no loophole or dependent element. There’s no legal debate over whether it qualifies as a felony; the law explicitly criminalizes the conduct.

    So while Trump’s case depends on technical legal interpretations and proving intent, citizens committing acts against federal officers are blatant, straightforward felony violations, with far less ambiguity... all in the name of protecting BOTH illegal aliens that have committed a crime crossing the border and may be felons as well

    we both know why they are mad. They understand that the only way they're going to gain political control is to have an influx of migrants that they use as pawns for power and control. They don't actually care about these people.

    What you or anyone personally believes isn’t relevant here. The case went through a full trial, the defense was heard, and the jury unanimously concluded that the prosecution met its burden, including the felony element. They rejected Trump’s defense and found that the business records were falsified to conceal another crime. The verdict closed the case legally, even if people continue to argue about it afterward.
