Michael Roman, an indicted criminal co-defendant in Donald Trump’s Georgia election interference case, has filed a 127-page motion to dismiss and disqualify Fulton County DA Fani Willis, her outside counsel Nathan Wade, and the entire Fulton County prosecutors’ office from the case on the grounds that Willis and Wade are having a consensual affair.
Ron DeSantis has left the race for president, but if Donald Trump is convicted of one of the many felonies he is facing, all bets are off as to what or who comes next.
A new study reports that a quarter of Americans believe the FBI, not Donald Trump, instigated the attack on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. That one-fourth of the country is so grossly misinformed actuates Ben Franklin’s wry quip about Americans having “a republic, if you can keep it.”
On Jan. 2, Donald Trump’s legal team filed his last official salvo with the Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, claiming on appeal that he is entitled to presidential immunity for plotting to overturn the 2020 election.
It’s the first week of January 2040, in the land of Idiocracy. President Ron DeSantis is in his fourth term, having purchased the presidency from Don Jr. after Sr. died in office, crushed by a marble statue of himself. Security footage showed some intimacy between the president and the stone just before it toppled, pulverizing all but his hair.
The underwhelming results from the UN Climate Conference in Dubai feel like much ado about nothing.
As Donald Trump embraces an online campaign filled with vulgar imagery attacking women, he continues to brag that he “killed” abortion.
An overwhelming majority of Americans of all political stripes want Congress to fix immigration, and yet, Congress has failed to do so for decades.
Lawyers who represent the government in federal court face a never-ending and creative supply of First and 14th Amendment cases. Like overcooked spaghetti flung on a wall, most such Constitutional claims don’t stick. They hit a well-oiled wall of federal case law and slide right off.
It’s exasperating to watch the American legal system bend over backward to protect a lawless man committed to its destruction, but here we are.
