The blockbuster remark came moments before closing arguments in Trump’s second trial in a case brought by E. Jean Carroll

A federal judge threatened Donald Trump’s attorney Alina Habba with jail time on Friday, after the former president’s lawyer kept contesting a ruling after it had been issued.

“You are on the verge of spending some time in the lockup,” senior U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan warned. “Sit down.”

The bombshell remark came moments before the start of closing arguments in Trump’s second trial in a case brought by writer E. Jean Carroll.

    Rudy Giuliani was a prosecutor and deputy attorney general. He was also well known as “America’s Mayor” after rallying New Yorkers in the wake of 9/11. Yet that didn’t stop him from ruining his own life committing crimes to protect Trump.

    It’s really bizarre!
