‘Presidents are not kings’: Judge assigned to new Trump case has a history with him

Judge Tanya Chutkan is an Obama appointee who has handed down harsh sentences for Jan. 6 defendants.

When Judge Tanya Chutkan presides over the new criminal case against Donald Trump, it won’t be her first time tangling with the former president and his lawyers.​

​

In fact, the U.S. district court judge already dealt the ex-president one of the most significant legal blows of his lifetime, triggering perhaps the greatest deluge of evidence about his bid to subvert the 2020 election — a scheme for which he now stands charged with serious crimes.​

​

Trump is well and truly fucked.

5 of the 6 co-conspirators have been identified.

1. John Eastman
2. Rudy Giuliani
3. Sidney Powell
4. Jeffrey Clark
5. Kenneth Chesebro

I'm assuming we'll either see their indictments soon or find out that they were granted immunity in exchange for their testimony against Trump.

When Donald Trump was indicted Tuesday and accused of trying to subvert the results of the 2020 presidential election, he found himself in the unenviable company of defendants charged under a criminal statute dating to the Reconstruction era.

The statute, Section 241 of Title 18 of the U.S. Code, was originally adopted as part of the Enforcement Act of 1870. It was the first in a series of measures known as the Ku Klux Klan Acts designed to protect rights guaranteed by the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments, collectively called the Reconstruction Amendments. Section 241 makes it a crime to “conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person” exercising a right protected by the Constitution or federal law.

Wow

I'm not sure why people are surprised by that. It was engineered specifically to prevent the Civil War from ever happening again by protecting everybody's rights across the board.

And look what we have right now: sitting congressmen and women LITERALLY asking for another Civil War. Trump's entire dialogue is what started that entire movement and is why we are where we are right now as a nation: more divided than we've ever been since 1861.

Mike Pence fought an order to testify against Donald Trump but now is a central figure in former boss’s indictment

The Trump indictment is partly informed by notes that Pence made of their conversations in the days leading up to the Jan. 6 Capitol attack

“Today’s indictment serves as an important reminder: Anyone who puts himself over the Constitution should never be President of the United States,” he said in a statement. “Our country is more important than one man. Our Constitution is more important than any one man’s career.”

At a campaign stop Wednesday at the Indiana State Fair, Pence, who previously served as the state’s governor, said he had “hoped it wouldn’t come to this,” but believed that he had “done his duty” that day.

“Sadly the president was surrounded by a group of crackpot lawyers that kept telling him what his itching ears wanted to hear,” he said. “The president ultimately continued to demand that I choose him over the Constitution.”

Pence, to me, is just as guilty as the rest of them. He knew the entire time exactly what was going on.

He said nothing.

Until he was forced to by a threat of prison for contempt by the Department of Justice.

Donald Trump lawyer appears to admit to one of Jack Smith's charges

Attorney John Lauro appeared on cable news shows to defend the former president's actions following Trump's not guilty pleas on Thursday.

www.newsweek.com

"What President Trump said is, 'Let's go with option D,'" Lauro said on Fox News' The Ingraham Angle. "Let's just halt, let's just pause the voting and allow the state legislatures to take one last look and make a determination as to whether or not the elections were handled fairly. That's constitutional law. That's not an issue of criminal activity."

Lauro also made a similar claim while speaking to Newsmax's Greg Kelly on Thursday.

Page 42 includes a section that states that hours after the January 6 attack took place, Eastman wrote to Pence to "implore you to consider one more relatively minor violation" of the Electoral Count Act and "adjourn for 10 days to allow the legislatures to finish their investigations, as well as to allow a full forensic audit of the massive amount of illegal activity that has occurred here."

You can't even lead that horse to water, let alone talk it into drinking.

I've said it many times about these idiots, but I'll say it again: They have the right to remain silent, but they just don't have the ability.

Trump reportedly ‘irked’ that arraignment judge called him ‘Mr Trump’

Trump apparently expected the judge to refer to him by his former title

www.independent.co.uk

She added: “I am told that the former president, one thing that irked him particularly, was during that hearing today that lasted about 27 minutes, was when the magistrate judge referred to him as simply ‘Mr Trump.’”
Mr Trump’s alleged annoyance comes as the staff at his Mar-a-Lago and Bedminster estates typically still refer to him as “President Trump” – despite leaving the White House over two years ago.
“That may not sound odd to anyone else, but he is still referred to by his former title ‘President Trump’ when he’s at his Bedminster golf club in New Jersey, as he is tonight, or at Mar-a-Lago,” revealed Ms Collins.
