On Wednesday, the former President of the United States, Donald Trump, was arraigned in New York, facing thirty-four counts of falsifying business records in the first degree, a charge brought against him by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.

On the same day, civil rights attorney Harmeet Dhillon appeared on FOX News' Tucker Carlson's show to defend Mr. Trump, suggesting that the charges against him were politically motivated to help Democrats defeat Republicans in the 2024 elections. During the interview, Carlson questioned the presence of cameras in the courtroom, believing that it was part of a political strategy rather than a legal one.

"Why did the judge allow cameras into the court to take pictures of Trump?" Carlson asked. "That seemed like part of a political strategy, not a legal one ... What did you make of that?

However, it was clarified that the judge had only allowed still photographers in court, disallowing video cameras following a successful petition from Mr. Trump's legal team. Dhillon concurred with Carlson's opinion and noted that this photograph could potentially be used as a prop in campaign ads. Dhillon told Carlson, "If the Democratic Party is using this prosecution ... to influence the outcome of the next election," she explained, "this photograph is going to be a prop in those campaign ads." She also observed that the Judge warned Trump against using rhetoric while discussing the case, which chilled his freedom of speech.

She also criticized District Attorney Bragg for not being bound by any restraints and cautioned that this could lead to an unfair trial that contravenes the principle of due process. Dhillon argued that the entire process was politically rigged and that the Democratic Party was no more than a gang of thugs. Following his arraignment, Mr. Trump gave a speech in Mar-a-Lago, where Dhillon suggested that his emphasis should be on the indictment being aimed at the American people, intended to terrorize them and discourage them from supporting a particular candidate, and that it was a form of emotional terrorism.
