An attorney for former President Donald Trump said Sunday that she advises against a plea deal in the federal government’s classified document case.“I know, I would never advise that, especially when he’s not done anything wrong. You take a plea deal to make something go away,” Alina Habba told “Fox News Sunday.” “That’s an admission of guilt. He would never admit guilt. Because there was nothing wrong with declassifying documents, taking documents with you.”Habba added that any “indictment is a one-sided document,” continuing, “He has a defense—the defense is real. He had the Presidential Records Act, which only he has...

Because the USSC wanted this case, it bypassed the lower courts. The filing attorney believes that the date January 6th was chosen as a signal of what the result is going to be.Brunson v. Alma S. Adams; et al., (Biden, Harris, Pence & 385 Members of Congress) Currently, there are two lawsuits identical to each other. The first One, filed by Loy Brunson is still held up in the Utah Federal Court. The second one, filed by Raland J. Brunson has made it to the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS), Docket #22-380, where 9 Justices in conference will...

Of course most of us have never heard of this case but it is huge, The historic significance of Brunson v Adams ranks with the signing of the Declaration of Independence. I say this with no fear of contradiction as every aspect of this case bears on whether our Constitutionthat supports the very freedoms that we enjoy and that make us different from third world dictatorships. Brunson v Adams is THAT important. This case is at once scary, because the stakes involved are as high as we can go; and encouraging because the Court has accepted it, and the significance...

The heads of four minority House caucuses are calling on President Trump to fire three White House staffers, according to a report Tuesday. In a letter to the president, the leaders of the black, Hispanic, Asian and progressive caucuses are asking Trump to remove White House chief strategist Steve Bannon, senior policy adviser Stephen Miller, and deputy assistant to the president Sebastian Gorka after the violent white nationalist groups' rally in Charlottesville, Va., over the weekend. "Americans deserve to know that white nationalists, white supremacists, and neo-Nazis are not in a position to influence U.S. policy," they wrote in the...

Rep. Ted Lieu: If Trump fired Rosenstein and Mueller, "I believe Congress would begin impeachment proceedings." https://t.co/lqJ0JTg1l6 — Kyle Griffin (@kylegriffin1) June 17, 2017 Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) said Friday that Congress would come together and “begin impeachment proceedings” against President Trump if he fired special counsel Robert Mueller and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. “All Americans, regardless of party, agree on the fundamental principle that no one is above the law,” Lieu said on MSNBC. “And if President Trump were to fire Deputy Attorney General Rosenstein, and then [get] special counsel Mueller fired, I believe Congress would begin impeachment...

He's not president yet, but Barack Obama has already given some thought to White House decor. Asked at a town hall-style meeting in Fargo, N.D., about any decorating plans for the Lincoln Bedroom, Obama described a visit to the White House after he became a U.S. senator. "You have all these mementos of Abraham Lincoln, but you have this flat-screen TV in there," Obama told the crowd at the outdoor event.

Condi Vs. Hillary? It's possible She's been secretary of state for less than a month, but Condi Rice has so wowed Washington and the world during her two foreign trips that there's new buzz she's blazing a trail to the presidency. The talk started inside Bush circles when Siena College in New York State issued a poll showing big support for a 2008 White House run by Rice. It caught fire last week when insiders revived an old rumor that Vice President Cheney would retire for "health reasons" and be replaced by Rice. "She's the leading Republican woman in the...

It's been a long time coming, but we now have an approximate date for a confrontation in the Senate on judicial nominations. Majority Leader Bill Frist has announced that if Democrats filibuster the nominations he expects to bring to the floor next month, he'll take action. Finally. Perhaps the biggest failure of Mr. Frist's leadership in the last Congress was his inability to corral Republicans and stop the Democrats' unprecedented filibuster of 10 of President Bush's appeals-court nominees. It was the first time in U.S. history that the filibuster had been used against nominees to the appellate bench, as a...

Washington WhipersHere's the long shot of the year:Congressional Democrats will okay a constitutional amendment allowing naturalized citizens like California Governor Arnold Schwarznegger to run for president if Republicans help kill the 22nd Amendment barring third terms, thus clearing the way for another bid by Bill Clinton and President Bush.Right now its the talk of political strategists, but look for it to spread on Capitol Hill when US Senator Orrin Hatch re-introduces his plan to let naturalized citizens run for president after 20 years.

Congressman Tom Tancredo has the right idea on the issue of immigration. As I see it in a post 9-11 world immigration policy and enforcement thereof are inextricably linked. Protecting our borders is key to securing the homeland! Tom Tancredo has the right idea on immigration policy and enforcement. We must make the issue of immigration front and center now and during the race for president. To this end, in addition to starting a web based movement to encourage Tom Tancredo to run, I will also find a Democrat who understands and believes in securing our borders and start a...

Bill Kristol and and Fred Barnes are on TV stating that it "wouldn't be out of the question" for McCain to be put on the ticket on Tuesday! I guess Dan Rather mentioned this today too. The rumor is the strange Bush appearance at the American Legion convention in Arizona on Tuesday, where McCain will join him. McCain is speaking the night before and would fly clear across the country for a SINLGE appearance and the nfly clear across the country to NY for the rest of the convention. Also, Chenecy has canceled MULTIPLE upcoming interviews. Something fishy is going...

<p>Massachusetts Democrats are devising a plan to keep John F. Kerry's US Senate seat in their party's hands by blocking Governor Mitt Romney from naming an interim replacement if Kerry wins the White House.</p> <p>Beacon Hill lawmakers want to pass legislation that would leave Kerry's seat vacant for two months or more, until a special election is held to fill it. That would prevent the Republican governor from naming an interim senator, as is currently required by state law.</p>

<p>NASHUA, N.H. - The Dean Debacle - Howard Dean's post-Iowa primal shriek meltdown - has Democrats buzzing that there's now a real prospect of a long bitter fight for the nomination that isn't settled until the convention.</p> <p>Because now, there are four major contenders plus Al Sharpton competing for the nomination - and that could make it very hard for anyone to muster the majority of 2,162 delegates needed to clinch it. All in the thick of it are the down-sliding Dean, Iowa victor John Kerry, runner-up John Edwards and Wesley Clark. While Sharpton has no chance, he appeals to black voters who are a major Democratic force. The problem in getting to a majority is that Democratic Party rules guarantee delegates everywhere to anyone who gets 15 percent of the vote. So Kerry may have "won" Iowa, but he doesn't even get half of the 45 delegates at stake. Right now he's in line for 20, Edwards for 18 and Dean for 7. "If Kerry achieves liftoff and can sell in the South, he's the nominee, but if he doesn't, there's a real chance of a brokered convention," says a Democratic insider.</p>

<p>For decades, the Republican and Democratic parties were the most effective ways to organize like-minded people to achieve political ends. But now, they have been upstaged by the Internet, as Howard Dean demonstrated.</p> <p>The person whose theories predicted this landmark transition was not a politician, a spin-doctor, or a high-powered campaign consultant, but a British economist named Ronald Coase who wrote seven decades ago.</p>
