    Smith presents Cannon with one of her own court experience with a case that involved the defedant claiming 'unfair prosecution'..


    Ex-prosecutor: Court may “politely recuse” Judge Cannon after Jack Smith calls out “clear error”

    excerpts:

    "Though lawyers often cite past cases, as The Daily Beast pointed out, Smith's "decision to point Cannon to her own case also sends a message — and not one meant for Trump’s lawyers or even the American public paying close attention to the historic case."

    "Smith’s choice to cite case law that Cannon actually worked could be viewed as a reminder to the judge that she knows better than to side with Trump on this — especially on such a narrow topic as bias-alleging document requests," The Daily Beast's Jose Pagliery wrote.

    “She worked on almost no cases. She had very little courtroom experience. To find a case that actually she worked on and that resulted in a published opinion is in itself improbable,” Catherine Ross, a professor emeritus at George Washington University Law School, told the Daily Beast. “It’s a brilliant maneuver, and particularly with a judge who had so little trial background,” she said."


    "Remember, we have this ongoing drama with her," Litman told MSNBC of Cannon's odd rulings seeming to push Trump's trial until after the 2024 presidential election. "She's been slow-walking the case and she had these early sort of debacles that the 11th Circuit reversed."

    Iowa GOP is trying to protect Trump with election bill.


    Democrats walk out of meeting on Iowa elections bill

    excerpt:

    "The bill would also ban ranked choice voting in Iowa.

    Ranked-choice voting is a process by which voters rank multiple candidates for a single office based on their preference. If a candidate does not receive more than 50 percent on the first round of voting, the least popular candidate is eliminated and his or her voters are reassigned to their second choice. The process continues until someone reaches 50 percent of the votes.

    The method is used in some local elections across the country, and in some statewide elections in Maine and Alaska."

    Trump's attorney, Habba, said this week she doesn't have good expectations for Trump concerning the outcome of the NY civil fraud. A ruling could come Friday.

    She displayed a lack of decor in the court room throughout the hearings due to her inexperience.

    If he becomes COO of the RNC, Trump's campaign advisor would be signing off on the financial maneuvers of the RNC. It's what Trump wants. He's running out of money for his civil and legal cases, in spite of what his public relations people say.

    Tucker Carlson says he's been radicalized after visiting Russia.

    He seems to be arguing that the U.S. should stop supporting Ukraine because the cost of groceries in Russia was lower than he expected.


    Tucker Carlson Says Trip to Russian Grocery Store Has ‘Radicalized’ Him Against US Leaders: ‘Legitimately Angry’

    excerpt:

    “If you take people’s standard of living and you tank it through filth and crime and inflation, and they literally can’t buy the groceries they want, at that point maybe maybe it matters less what you say or whether you’re a ‘good person’ or a ‘bad person,’ you’re wrecking people’s lives and their country,” said Carlson, who has questioned U.S. support of Ukraine’s defense since his days on Fox News. “And that’s what our leaders have done to us.”

    Putin signs law to seize property of those who criticise the military.


    Russia’s Putin signs law to seize assets of those who discredit military

    excerpt:

    "The law, which was signed on Wednesday, targets individuals convicted of a range of offences which include “discrediting” the government and spreading “deliberately false information” about the army, threatening them with the loss of money, property, assets and valuables."

    And Trump wants to take financial control of the RNC to pay for his civil and criminal cases that he says are unfair and stem from his enemies persecuting him.

    To delay the criminal trial again, Trump is asking the U.S. Supreme Court for a stay of the U.S. appeals court that decided against him on his claim of absolute immunity and posted a 59-page scathing opinion against him.


    Trump’s new Supreme Court gambit doesn’t even try to hide that it’s a delaying tactic | CNN Politics

    excerpt:

    "The filing is Trumpian in its audacity.

    In essence, it argues that it would be unfair to millions of voters if the ex-President cannot get his message out in the 2024 election because he is on trial over his attempt to overturn the 2020 election. The former president was less concerned about the rights of voters when he sought to thwart their choice to eject him from office in 2020. After an unprecedented effort by Trump to interrupt the cherished tradition of peaceful transfers of power three years ago, Trump’s attorneys nevertheless insist the real “stunning breach of precedent and historical norms” is that the lower court ruled that presidential immunity for official acts does not exist at all. While Trump argues he was using presidential power in a legitimate effort to bring to light electoral fraud, there is nothing in the Constitution that gives the president the right or duty to officially administer elections, count votes or contact local election officials as the ex-president is alleged to have done."

    Analyst says Trump will select one of his sons as VP.


    'Eric isn't that busy': Analyst says Trump will likely nominate one of his kids as VP

    excerpt:

    "Look, I've said this for years," Johnson began. "I'll repeat this: You don't have a Republican Party anymore. It's a terrorist organization called MAGA. This is part of it. When you have someone who is not an elected official, who was voted out of office, who is basically taking the entire infrastructure of what used to be a party and turned it into his own sort of family affair, you don't really have a functional party anymore."
