(TheRedAlertNews.com) – In a dramatic turn in the leftist legal battle against Donald Trump in New York, his team has filed a motion to dismiss, alleging political motivations aiming to derail his presidential ambitions.

The defense argues that the financial fraud “hush money” charges disrupt crucial government functions while the Biden administration faces scrutiny for its own controversies.
Trump’s legal team is fiercely contesting the New York case, asserting that these charges are nothing more than politically charged distractions.
Arguing the motion, they emphasize how the legal proceedings jeopardize the transition of the president-elect and interfere with federal government operations.
They assert that this is a ploy to deflect attention from controversies within the Biden administration, particularly the potential pardon of Hunter Biden.
The attorneys cite a recent motion filed by special counsel Jack Smith to dismiss federal charges against Trump, referencing how the Department of Justice traditionally avoids prosecuting a sitting president.
This precedent, they argue, supports their request for dismissal in the New York case.
The motion also accuses the prosecution of being selective and unfair, drawing parallels with Biden’s handling of Hunter Biden’s legal issues.
The defense team references the impact of this case on Trump’s presidential duties, invoking the Presidential Transition Act and the Supremacy Clause, while calling upon the principle of presidential immunity.
These elements allegedly prove the political nature of the charges, aimed merely at tarnishing Trump’s political influence as he navigates his return to office.
The Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s decision to propose delaying Trump’s sentencing until after his potential second term further raises questions about the political motivations involved: is this approach truly founded on balancing constitutional interests, or is it a tactical maneuver to limit Trump’s political influence?
The legal filing also highlights discrepancies in how justice is exercised, referencing the dismissal of other Trump-related cases based on the DOJ’s immunity policy.
The motion’s timing is critical, as the Manhattan DA’s office has until December 9 to respond.
This deadline pressures the judicial system to demonstrate its commitment to impartiality in the face of such heated political dynamics, Fox News reports.
While Trump’s team claims victory in having other related charges dismissed, including federal election interference and classified documents cases, the outcome of this New York case remains uncertain.
Trump’s attorneys continue to label the charges as “failed lawfare,” challenging the judiciary to uphold justice rather than engaging in political theatrics.
