One of former President Donald Trump’s lawyers lambasted the Manhattan judge presiding over his civil fraud trial as well as New York Attorney General Letitia James, who brought the $250 million lawsuit following her client’s turbulent testimony on Monday.

In remarks to reporters outside the courtroom, attorney Alina Habba accused Judge Arthur Engoron and James of pre-determining Trump’s guilt while also ripping him for ordering her to “sit down” when she was trying to argue a point on behalf of her client.

“The judge has predetermined that my client committed fraud before we even walked into this courtroom,” she told reporters after the trial wrapped for the day.

“‘I’m not here to hear what he has to say,'” she continued, quoting what Engoron had said about Trump at one point during the proceedings. “That was what rang true, loud, and could not have been more honest coming from the judge who has already predetermined that my client committed fraud before we even walked into this courtroom.

“‘I’m not here to hear what he has to say.’ Then why exactly am I being paid as an attorney? And why exactly are taxpayer dollars being used in this courtroom?” Habba continued. “The answer is very clear. Because Miss [New York Attorney General Letitia] James wants to stand right here like she did this morning and call my client a liar, call the company fraudulent, and make a name for herself.”

She continued:

She said this morning that the numbers don’t lie, and they won’t lie in this case. Well, Miss James, I have a message for you. The numbers didn’t lie when you ran for governor, and that’s why you dropped out. And the numbers don’t lie when President Trump runs for office in 2024, and those numbers are loud and clear.

This country is falling apart, and if we don’t stop corruption in courtrooms where attorneys are gagged, where attorneys are not allowed to say what they need to say to protect their client’s interests. It doesn’t matter what your politics are. Everyone has a right in this country to get up and put on a defense. I don’t care who you are. You have a right to hire a lawyer who can put objections on the record. You have a right to hire a lawyer who can stand up and say something when they see something wrong.

Habba then addressed Engoron’s order for her to be seated.

“I was told to sit down today. I was yelled at, and I’ve had a judge who is unhinged slamming a table. Let me be very clear, I don’t tolerate that in my life, I’m not going to tolerate it here. And you know what, you shouldn’t either,” she said, looking at the assembled reporters. “Because not every American citizen gets a camera and a microphone, and what I’m seeing is such a demise of the American judicial system and democracy.”

“The judge can tell me to sit down, and he can try and shorten my client’s testimony, but it is loud and clear they’ve got nothing, they’ve got nothing but their politics. She’s got nothing but her Soros backing, which we discovered recently, and I am sick and tired of seeing it,” Habba continued.

“Pay attention, America. Pay attention. Because when you are in court one of these days and you don’t have a lawyer that has a microphone, and you don’t have a lawyer that can go on TV, and you’ve got judges gagging them, what are you going to do?” she said. “We need to fix this country and stop what is happening in this courtroom.”
