wrong person.. I could care less about Trump either way. I do find him entertaining though. He was great on the Apprentice.. Your Fired!

 

In all honesty it is  about time he goes away though. Too much of a distraction at this point. We have some real problems going on that need to be fixed and the current administration ain't up to it. If I were to vote, which I probably won't cuz well fuck politics and politicians. I would roll with DeSantis baring a true independent leader emerging but I am not sure there are any anymore. At least he seems to have some balls. 

 

 

great on the Apprentice??...he should have stayed there...he was a failure as Pres....He's a disgrace to this nation IMO and needs to go away asap.

I’m beginning to think that they are going to arrest him (even if only?) for the divide and distrust in government it would cause... but  not sure if he declared if he is going to run for office again (which might be what that depends on ???) 🤷‍♂️

Either way pretty sure that would make your day 🙄

Georgia GOP bankrolls lawyers for 'fake' Trump electors in Fulton County DA probe

The Georgia Republican Party is bankrolling the legal defense of most of the so-called fake electors in the state as part of a controversial arrangement that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis charges in a new court filing is “rife with serious ethical problems” and “actual conflicts of interest.”

A Yahoo News review of campaign finance filings shows that the Georgia Republican Party paid $35,419 last July to two lawyers who are representing 11 of 16 party operatives and activists who declared themselves on Dec. 14, 2020, “the duly elected and qualified” electors from the state pledged to Donald Trump despite the fact that President Biden had won the popular vote.

That move, which was memorialized in a false certificate the electors sent that day to the Senate and National Archives, has become a central focus of Willis’s probe into Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election. But Willis, an elected Democrat, substantially escalated the legal battle over the issue this week when she moved to disqualify the two lawyers being paid by the state GOP. Willis argued that their representation of the 11 electors resulted in ethical conflicts given the potentially divergent interests between some of those electors and top party officials, including state party chairman David Shafer, who organized the Dec. 14 meeting and arranged for it to take place behind closed doors at the state capital. (The court filing was first reported by CNN.)

A spokesman for the Georgia Republican Party did not respond to a request for comment. One of the lawyers who Willis is seeking to disqualify, Holly Pierson, a former federal prosecutor, said in an emailed statement to Yahoo News that claims that there was any ethical impropriety by her and her co-counsel in the case, Kimberly Debrow, were “false and defamatory.”

“Both the U.S. Supreme Court and the Georgia Supreme Court recognize that there is no actual or potential conflict in representing multiple individuals united in their innocence whose defenses against false allegations of wrongdoing are aligned,” Pierson wrote. She also said she and Debrow have “thoroughly complied with our ethical obligations,” including getting informed consent waivers from their clients.

The new court filing underscores the political minefield that surrounds Willis’s high-profile probe, which many legal observers say continues to represent the most imminent threat of criminal prosecution for the former president. Willis herself has already been disqualified from participating in one part of her case — an investigation into one of the alternative electors who met at the state capital that day, Burt Jones, the current Republican Party candidate for lieutenant governor, because the district attorney previously participated in a fundraiser for Jones’s Democratic opponent, Charles Bailey.

But the filing also highlights an arrangement that Willis has suggested is thwarting her efforts to uncover the truth about the fake elector meeting: With the same two lawyers representing 11 electors, it effectively prevents her prosecutors from reaching cooperation agreements with marginal participants who could then provide testimony that might implicate her top targets, including party chairman Shafer.

Defense lawyers “should be doing whatever is in the best interest” of their clients and “in the criminal law, sometimes that’s a plea, right? Sometimes, I’m going to take this immunity agreement — and I’m going to get you the best deal,” Willis said in an interview with Yahoo News before her Monday filing to disqualify Pierson and Debrow. She emphasized in the interview that she was not talking specifically about the two Georgia defense lawyers. But she added: “You cannot effectively represent — forget 11 — you cannot effectively represent two people doing that. That to me, puts everything in jeopardy and it’s a bad idea.”

The potential problem has also been flagged by Robert McBurney, the chief judge in Fulton County Superior Court who will rule on Willis’s motion. After Pierson and Debrow filed their own motions in July to disqualify Willis from the whole investigation (because of her role in the Bailey fundraiser), McBurney denied their claims. And in a little noticed passage, he appeared to reference the potential conflict issue that has now been raised by Willis, writing that the 11 electors had “divergent roles in post-election activities” and had “fundamentally different postures in the District Attorney’s investigation.”

Clark Cunningham, a professor of law and ethics at Georgia State University, said it was “entirely appropriate” for Willis to file her motion. He noted that Shafer’s role in particular posed a “significant conflict of interest” for the two defense lawyers given that the state party chair “seems to be facing much greater criminal liability [than the others], so it may be very much in the Georgia Republican Party’s interest to make sure none of them cooperate with the DA.”

The so-called fake elector scheme was an integral part of the legal strategy devised by one of Trump’s lawyers, John Eastman, to block President Biden from taking office. The idea was to have alternate GOP electors in seven swing states that Biden won declare themselves the real electors in the state, initially as a means of preserving Trump’s ability to overturn the election results in the event that any of his multiple challenges in court were successful.

After those challenges repeatedly failed, the fake elector meetings were used by Eastman to argue that Vice President Mike Pence could reject the legitimate Biden electors when Congress was called on to certify the election results on Jan. 6, 2021, because there was a presumed dispute over which set of electors were real.

In their own motions to quash subpoenas issued to her clients, Pierson and Debrow argued in a court filing that the Dec. 14 fake elector meeting was “public and transparent.” To back that up, they noted that Shafer announced the meeting in social media postings and during media interviews that same day, emphasizing that the session was only convened to “preserve” Trump’s rights should his legal challenge to the Georgia results succeed.

But unlike the certificates from two other states where fake elector meetings were held, the Georgia statement to the National Archives and the Senate made no mention of the idea that the declaration by the electors that they were "duly elected and qualified" was contingent on the success of Trump's legal challenges.

In addition, Willis’s prosecutors have gathered substantial evidence that Shafer only publicly revealed the Dec. 14 meeting, which was held in Room 216 of the state Capitol, after reporters learned about it that day and threatened to expose it. In his book, “Flipped: How Georgia turned Purple and Broke the Monopoly on Republican Power,” Atlanta Journal-Constitution reporter Greg Bluestein wrote that he was falsely told when he tried to attend that it was “an education meeting.”

George Chidi, an Atlanta-based independent journalist, told Yahoo News that he testified before Willis’s special grand jury investigating the case last July about how he got tipped off to the secret meeting and that when he tried to attend it he too got told it was “an education meeting” and was thrown out. “A guy got up and walked me out the door,” he said, adding that “they posted a guy out front” to keep others out.

Yahoo News has confirmed that, in a text message before the meeting, Shafer sent a text message to alert participants: “Tell them to go to Room 216 to avoid drawing attention to what we are doing.”

Trump said the FBI found classified documents at his home because federal workers packed them. But emails Bloomberg got show boxes were already packed when movers arrived.

• Bloomberg News got emails revealing information about boxes packed during Trump's White House move.

• Trump said the FBI found classified documents at his home because federal workers packed them.

• But the emails with GSA show the boxes were already packed when the movers arrived.

Donald Trump's boxes may have already been packed when movers arrived at the White House after his presidential election loss, according to emails and documents that Bloomberg News obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request.

Trump previously and publicly said one of the reasons the FBI found classified documents at his Palm Beach estate, Mar-A-Lago, when it was searched on August 8, 2022, was that federal workers had packed the boxes.

"They packed them," Trump told Fox News host Sean Hannity in late September.

Kash Patel, a former defense official for Trump who handled his presidential records with the National Archives, also said the US General Services Administration workers packed boxes on a radio show on August 15, just days after the FBI executed the search warrant.

"It's key to note that the GSA … they're the ones that packed up and moved these documents. It's not like President Trump put him in his briefcase and hopped aboard Air Force One on January 20th and said, 'Okay. I'll see you guys later,'" Patel said on the "The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show."

But Bloomberg's Jason Leopold and Jack Gillum reported Wednesday that the email correspondence between the GSA and Trump's operations team tells a different story.

According to the documents Bloomberg obtained, former chief of staff Mark Meadows signed an agreement on January 11, 2021, laying out the guidelines for them to use Mar-A-Lago as a "temporary office space" for both Trump and then-Vice President Mike Pence for six months. The agreement also allotted $2 million for Trump and $520,000 for Pence so they could acquire "office space, furniture, shipping costs and other expenses," the documents show.

Trump aides used kitchen space and resort rooms at Mar-A-Lago and GSA-provided office space in Arlington, Virginia, to process and appraise gifts for the National Archives, requiring at least 100 boxes at one time, Bloomberg reported.

The documents show that in April 2021, Desiree Thompson Sayle, the correspondence director for the Office of Donald Trump, emailed the GSA, asking what she described as a "weird" question: "Does GSA work with a contractor for interstate shipping? We have a portrait of President Trump and it needs to be shipped to FL, but in its crate it is 300 lbs, 6 x 8 feet."

Kathy Geisler, a GSA facilities manager, responded that the painting was considered "personal property," meaning it was not eligible to be shipped using taxpayer dollars, the documents show.

Another GSA spokesperson made it clear that their contract solely covered shipping and not packing. The documents show that the spokesperson told Trump's office, "the outgoing transition team was responsible for putting the boxes on pallets and shrink-wrapping each pallet."

Bloomberg reported that another email sent in July 2021 shows Thompson Sayle informing the GSA that the first pallet of boxes was ready for shipment, weighing in at 598 pounds.

One email shows Thompson Sayle sending the GSA multiple pictures of boxes stacked on pallets, wrapped in cellophane, and ready for shipment to Florida.

Trump said he almost didn't want to refute Cassidy Hutchinson's testimony that he lunged at a Secret Service agent on Jan. 6 because it made him look tough

• Trump mocked Cassidy Hutchinson's January 6 testimony during a speech in Miami Wednesday.

• He said the account that he lunged at a Secret Service agent made him look "physically tough."

• Hutchinson testified that she heard secondhand that Trump demanded to be taken to the Capitol.

MIAMI, Florida — Former President Donald Trump said Wednesday that he almost didn't want to refute a secondhand account that he tried to lunge at a Secret Service agent on January 6, because it made him look "physically tough."

Trump was referring to former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson's testimony before the January 6 Committee, in which she relayed that she heard secondhand that the former president tried to grab the steering wheel of his SUV and lunged at one of his Secret Service agents on January 6, demanding they take him to the Capitol where his supporters were headed.

- ADVERTISEMENT -

Trump didn't mention Hutchinson by name but in a speech before the Hispanic Leadership Conference, organized by America First Works, he referred to "this one very sick individual" and recounted the details of her testimony.

"If you listen to this one very sick individual, in order to get the Secret Service to take me to the Capitol, I grabbed one around the neck," he said to laughs in the audience in a ballroom at the InterContinental Miami. "I almost didn't want to dispute it, because a lot of people said, 'I never knew you were that physically tough.'"

"If I had grabbed him around the neck, I would have been in very serious trouble," Trump added, calling the story "phony."

Hutchinson became a star witness to the January 6 Committee investigating the attack on the Capitol that attempted to decertify the 2020 election. During her testimony, she relayed Trump's efforts to go to the Capitol on January 6 after the rally at the Ellipse, though his aides and lawyers shot down the idea.

Hutchinson said Tony Ornato, the White House deputy chief of staff, recounted the lunging incident to her immediately after it occurred.

She testified that Trump "said something to the effect of, 'I'm the effing president, take me up to the Capitol now,' to which Bobby responded, 'Sir, we have to go back to the West Wing.'" Hutchinson was referring to Bobby Engel, head of Trump's protective detail.

"The president reached up towards the front of the vehicle to grab at the steering wheel. Mr. Engel grabbed his arm, said, 'Sir, you need to take your hand off the steering wheel, we're going back to the West Wing, we're not going to the Capitol.' Mr. Trump then used his free hand to lunge towards Bobby Engel," Hutchinson said, adding that when Ornato "recounted the story to me, he had motioned towards his clavicles."

The account was anonymously scrutinized by sources who spoke to NBC News, but Secret Service agents haven't testified about that day under oath and before the committee — even though a Trump ally says they've offered to do so.

A former Secret Service agent was skeptical of the account in an interview with Insider, saying Trump would have had to squeeze through an "extremely tight" space to be able to grab the steering wheel of an SUV and lunge at a Secret Service agent. Trump's "girth," the former agent said, would have made the feat difficult.

Liz Cheney says Arizona GOP candidates threaten democracy

PHOENIX (AP) — Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney on Wednesday said the Republican candidates for Arizona governor and secretary of state pose a huge risk for democracy because both say they will refuse to certify election results if they don't like the results.

Cheney, a prominent critic of former President Donald Trump and one of just 10 U.S. House Republicans who voted to impeach him after the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, made the comments at an event organized by the McCain Institute at Arizona State University.

Cheney also leveled broadsides as what she said was a growing “Putin wing” of the Republican Party who want America to withdraw from the world stage and refuse to defend freedom in other countries.

She has spent a lot of time thinking about Arizona and the upcoming elections here.

“In Arizona today you have a candidate for governor in Kari Lake, you have a candidate for Secretary of State in Mark Finchem, both of whom have said — this isn’t a surprise, it’s not a secret — they both said that they will only honor the results of an election if they agree with it,” Cheney told the audience filled with ASU students.

Scroll back up to restore default view.

She said both looked at Trump's 2020 loss in Arizona, and both know that it was carried out following state law, and that there were counts, recounts, audits and court challenges that all went against Trump.

“They’ve looked at all of that, the law, the facts and the rulings, the courts, and they’ve said it doesn’t matter to them,” Cheney said. “And if you care about democracy, and you care about the survival of our republic, then you need to understand, we all have to understand, that we cannot give people power who have told us that they will not honor elections.”

Cheney, who is vice chair of the House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on Congress and was trounced in Wyoming's Republican primary as a result of her refusal to back Trump, spoke of what she believes is a wider threat to the nation from a Republican Party that is now fully in Trump's control.

“The first thing that we have to understand is that we’ve never been where we are,” Cheney said. “We’ve never been in a phase, a place where we’re facing this kind of a threat. And that’s because we’re facing a threat from a former president who is attempting to unravel the Republic.”

Cheney, daughter of former Republican Vice President Dick Cheney, spoke of how 30 years ago she worked overseas for the International Republican Institute when former Arizona Sen, John McCain chaired the group's board. She said she saw firsthand how fragile some of those democracies were.

“And I think I knew on some level that even in the United States this was fragile,” she said. “But I certainly didn’t understand just how fragile. I think that’s such an important lesson that we need to take from history.”

Cheney, who said her first vote was for Ronald Reagan and is a traditional conservative Republican who favors low taxes and international engagement by the United States, also took shots at Fox News Channel.

The issue came up after she was asked by the moderator, McCain Institute Democracy Fellow Sofia Gross, about the meaning of patriotism.

Cheney said being a patriot means loving country more than whatever political party someone belongs to.

“And that means that you put your love of country above politics, you put it above your political career,” she said.

She said McCain stood for that idea that American is a nation based on freedom, and that carries with it an obligation to help defend freedom around the world.

“You can’t look at something like what’s happening today with Russia and Ukraine, and say America is neutral in that,” Cheney said. “That’s a frontline in the war of freedom and America must support Ukraine.”

She pointed to what she called “a growing Putin wing of the Republican Party,” referring to Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“And you see news outlets like Fox News, running propaganda," she said. "You’ve watched it not just on Tucker Carlson’s show, although he is the biggest propagandist for Putin on that network.

“And you really have to ask yourself ... whose side is Fox on in this battle?" Cheney added. "And how could it be that you have a wing of the Republican Party that thinks that America would be standing with Putin as he conducts that brutal invasion of Ukraine?”

Cheney has floated the idea of running for president in 2024, if nothing else than to serve as a foil if the former president runs again.

A rift has opened in Trump's legal team, with a lawyer frozen out for wanting to cooperate with the DOJ: NYT

• A rift has opened up among Donald Trump's lawyers over the Mar-a-Lago probe, The NYT reported.

• One lawyer, has been frozen out over suggesting closer cooperation with the DOJ, the report said.

• The DOJ is investigating Trump's handling of top secret documents after leaving office.

A rift has opened in Donald Trump's legal team over how to respond to Mar-a-Lago classified documents case, The New York Times reported.

According to the Times, the rift was prompted by the Department of Justice telling Trump's team it believes he still possesses government records, even after the FBI raid in August which seized hundreds of files from his home.

 

Two sources told The Times that attorney Christopher Kise put himself at odds wth Trump by advocating creating a "forensics team" of independent investigators to meticulously inspect whether Trump has any further records.

Per The Times, Trump was initially open to the idea, the report said, but was later persuaded by other attorneys to take a more aggressive approach, leading to Kise being sidelined.

Trump has offered a shifting array of defenses in response to the raid, claiming that it's part of a political plot to destroy him, and that he had declassified swaths of top secret records found at Mar-a-Lago.

But his lawyers have not attempted to make those claims in court, where they are trying to prevent the DOJ from accessing thousands of the documents seized by the FBI, arguing that they are protected under privilege rules.

A special master is currently reviewing the documents seized on August 8, and will decide which documents the DOJ will be able to review in its investigation.

"The weaponized Department of Justice and the politicized F.B.I. are spending millions and millions of American tax dollars to perpetuate witch hunt after witch hunt," said a Trump spokesman in response to the report.

Trump is hesitant to keeping campaigning for Herschel Walker in case the scandals around him get worse, report says

• Trump is hesitant to campaign for scandal-hit candidate Herschel Walker, CNN reported.

• Per The Daily Beast, Walker paid for a woman to have an abortion despite wanting abortions banned.

• Walker's own son has criticized his campaign and alleged that he abused his mom.

Former President Donald Trump is reluctant to return to Georgia to campaign for Republican Senate candidate Herschel Walker after his campaign was roiled by scandal, CNN reported.

Citing a source close to Trump, CNN said the former president's team is nervous that more damaging revelations could follow about Walker's personal life.

It could mean Trump decides not to make a potential appearance in Georgia to campaign for Walker, even though he has already endorsed him.

The Daily Beast this week reported that Walker paid for a woman to have an abortion in 2009 — an especially damaging claim given that Walker has in this cycle vocally advocated for total bans on abortion.

Walker has denied the report, and said he's considering suing the publication. On Wednesday, the outlet followed up with a report that the woman is someone with whom he later had a child.

The reporting promoted Walker's son, Christian, to publically attack his father, calling him a hypocrite and accusing his of unspecified abusive behavior towards his family.

CNN's source told the network: "The President has been to Georgia twice in the past year and the state was in a good spot until yesterday – so now we have to see how the ground shifts."

Trump issued a statement in support of Walker, and according to CNN has been urged by Republican groups to continue backing the candidate.

According to the report, Trump will likely wait until the October 14 debate between Walker and his Democratic rival, incumbent Sen. Raphael Warnock, before making a decision on returning to the state.

Georgia is seen as a crucial battleground in the upcoming midterm elections, where the Republican Party is seeking to overturn the Democrats' thin majority and win back control of the chamber.
