A dentist and lawyer known for her past promotion of the "birther" conspiracy theory regarding former President Barack Obama has sued Vice President Kamala Harris and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) to halt former President Donald Trump's impeachment.
Orly Taitz is suing to prevent the Senate from holding a second Trump impeachment trial more than a decade after she first made headlines for launching legal complaints in support of misinformation claiming that Obama was not born in the U.S., a bogus claim that Trump promoted for several years before becoming president.
The new lawsuit was filed Thursday on behalf of the Defend Our Freedoms Foundation, a group that Taitz founded. It claims that going through with the impeachment trial would be illegal since the Constitution states that the impeachment process can be used to remove a sitting president, while Trump already left office when President Joe Biden was inaugurated on Wednesday.

She's been locked up in an insane asylum for a few years.
Now they let her out and here she goes, hollering and waving her papers again.
So if you can impeach a previous president Obama better worry if Republicans take control some day.
I do not believe Trump supported that theory; he merely acknowledged it in the arena of political discourse. Just like he did not incite the capitol riots.
I expect that his legal team will be filing suit against the impeachment trial, and hopefully they will be more competent that Taitz.
It is intended as a derogative. It's much like using the N-word to malign people. The intent is to see them as unworthy of consideration, and to dismiss any ideas they express.
NXIVM anyone? Nah, that's just a "conspiracy theory."
yea sure lol

LOL! Trump jumped in with both feet. He claimed that he had sent investigators to Hawaii to look into it and "they cannot believe what they’re finding." Never did release what all they had found.
Even Roberts couldn’t bring himself to preside over this circus.
IOW, it must be THAT bad.
Question: Are Obama’s records at Occidental College, Columbia University and at the Hawaiian vitals statistics department still sealed?? And if so, why??
I KNOW from the exact language Trump used he did not incite a riot nor necessarily intended a protest/ demonstration to go that far.

I don't know, but if they are then I'd imagine it's because it's none of our business, any more than Trump's academic records at Fordham or Penn are.
You're not alone in that belief. I'm sure Orly could have long conversations with you on that.
Yes! Yes!
Thankful, someone is!
Should be MANY more! jmho!
Take care........pilgrim
I assume you are correct with your quote; if so, I had forgotten it.
Obama isn’t a natural born citizen. Never has been and never will be. Same for Harris. That’s not a conspiracy and stating the truth doesn’t make you a conspiracist. You may not like her but Orly is not incompetent nor is she crazy. Typical leftist tactic wherein you attack the messenger when you don’t like the message.

Not true... Obungo himself is the original birther. There is no way that unknown author didn’t write his own bio....
