President Donald Trump\u2019s own tweets came back to haunt him Friday after a federal judge rejected his latest attempt to escape his criminal hush-money conviction.<\/p>\n

U.S. District Judge Alvin K. Hellerstein Trump\u2019s bid to move the already-decided New York case into federal court, where the president sought to have his conviction overturned on presidential immunity grounds.<\/p>\n

Hellerstein ruled on Trump\u2019s claim that prosecutors improperly introduced evidence of his official presidential acts, including 2018 tweets attacking former fixer Michael Cohen. One warned against retaining \u201cthe services of Michael Cohen,\u201d while another praised Paul Manafort for refusing to \u201cbreak\u201d and \u201cmake up stories.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no way that discussions regarding hush money payments to cover up the President\u2019s relations with Stormy Daniels could be an official act,\u201d Hellerstein wrote Friday. \u201cAn affair, or a cover-up of an affair, is not within the \u2018outer perimeter\u2019 of the President\u2019s official responsibilities.\u201d<\/p>\n

The judge also accused Trump of taking \u201c\u2018a second bite at the apple\u2019, a result the law disfavors\u201d by asking the federal court to step in after first pursuing appeals in state court, and blamed the president for delaying his request.<\/p>\n

\u201cTrump\u2019s delay in filing for removal constitutes a \u2018quintessential strategic decision,\u2019” Hellerstein wrote, adding that the \u201cfact that he later came to view that decision as a poor one is not sufficient, by itself, to establish cause.\u201d<\/p>\n

He concluded: \u201cThe grounds for a second removal cited by Defendant, Donald J. Trump, are neither new nor legally sufficient. He has failed to show good cause and diligence.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump was convicted in May 2024 on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records to conceal the $130,000 payment to Daniels. He is separately appealing the conviction in New York State court, according to media reports. <\/p>\n
