Truckers Target Trump-Hating New York Judge

Finally.

The seriously out-of-control far-leftist Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron, he who has taken upon his Trump-hating self to fine the former president for $355 million for supposedly inflating his net worth, is finally getting some comeuppance.

The New York Post front-paged the news:

Trump-supporting truckers vow their boycott could ‘shut New York City down’ after $355M fraud ruling

The Post reports:

Truckers supporting Donald Trump are warning that their refusal to deliver to the Big Apple could paralyze New York City — as more drivers vow to join the boycott following the bombshell ruling in the former president’s civil fraud case.

“It could shut New York City down,” said Jennifer Hernandez, a trucker who has joined in the protest against Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron’s decision to fine Trump $355 million for inflating his net worth by billions to dupe banks and insurers.

“I’m not trying to hurt the people of New York, that’s not what I’m trying to do,” Hernandez insisted on NewsNation Monday morning.

“But if New York loses just 10% of the trucks that go in there, their prices are going to skyrocket on everything — from milk to eggs, to any type of goods that the consumer needs. When that happens, it’s going to cost everyone more money,” she warned.

Well, exactly.

What’s of serious significance here is that finally the out-of-control authoritarian and decidedly corrupt New York legal establishment is being taken on — in this instance, by truckers.

One question that comes out of this is: Just why did it  take truckers to take on these people?

Which is to say: Where is the New York Bar?

Whether it’s Judge Engoron or New York Attorney General Letitia James — the latter openly campaigning on a vow to use her office to get Trump — the corruption each have brought to the New York legal system is vividly self-evident.

Along with the truckers, New York Republican Rep. Elise Stefanik has also stepped up to the plate.

As reported over at ABC News, Stefanik has sent a letter to the New York State Commission on Judicial Conduct, saying this of Engoron:

Judge Engoron’s bizarre and biased behavior is making New York’s judicial system a laughingstock.…Simply put, Judge Engoron has displayed a clear judicial bias against the defendant throughout the case, breaking several rules in the New York Code of Judicial Conduct.

Similarly, Stefanik has filed a complaint against James, the New York attorney general. Writes Stefanik, per NBC:

Stefanik, R-N.Y., alleges that James is “conducting a biased investigation and prosecution” of Trump and “attacking” him through “extrajudicial statements,” her letter to the New York Committee on Professional Standards says.

She also argues that James made “highly inappropriate and prejudicial comments on social media” and asks that the Attorney Grievance Committee investigate James and issue consequences, such as disbarring or suspending her.

Bingo.

Now come the truckers, who are turning to economic action in taking on the corrupt Engoron.

In its own way, the truckers’ action is symbolic of the general revolt by millions of Americans against a political establishment that they see as decidedly corrupt. It is that belief that has so vividly animated the Trump movement, well on display at the former president’s decidedly energized rallies filled with enthusiastic thousands.

So, as the former president once said, stand back and stand by.

It seems to be forgotten that the heart of commercial New York City is Manhattan — a literal island. If truckers refuse to transport the most basic of goods into Manhattan, there will be serious economic problems. As mentioned, prices in the city will skyrocket.

And in the larger sense, there is a decided lesson here for those paying attention. Which is to say, Americans have awakened to the reality that their once-honored legal and political establishments — here personified by Judge Engoron and Attorney General James — have been corrupted. And they will be looking closely at those unwilling to call out the corruption — and do something about it.

The truckers are standing up for America. And, for that, they should be congratulated.
