Despite winning the electoral college, and popular vote, President Donald Trump continues to face numerous legal roadblocks as he tries to fulfill his campaign promises, such as reigning in mass illegal immigration and protecting Jewish students on college campuses. Well-funded liberal organizations and left-wing activist judges have launched a full-court-press to seemingly block everything Trump is doing, which is eerily similar to the 2022-24 lawfare period, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today's “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:” “This is very analogous—cherry-picking left-wing judges is very analogous to what we watched all during the 2022-24 lawfare period. You remember Judge [Arthur] Engoron, Judge [Juan] Merchan, and Judge [Lewis] Kaplan—he was the judge in the E. Jean Carroll [case]. And we had the Alvin Bragg judge and the Letitia James. They were all—like these judges, they had two things in common: They were left-wing activist judges, appointed by either Biden, Obama, or Bill Clinton. And they had minor to major conflicts of interest where people in their family were big, either had worked for a prior Democratic administration or themselves were activists. “And what did they do? They tried to put Donald Trump in jail. “That same lawfare has now been transmogrified and put into a more concerted effort to stop everything that Donald Trump is trying to do. And what he's trying to do, remember, is not radical. It's just simply to enforce immigration law. It's just simply to bring back the country to the middle.” Don't miss out on Victor's latest videos by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

This Day in Legal History: John Jay Commissioned as first Chief JusticeOn September 26, 1789, John Jay was commissioned as the first Chief Justice of the United States, marking a pivotal moment in American legal history. Nominated by President George Washington and confirmed by the Senate, Jay's appointment came just months after the Judiciary Act of 1789 established the framework for the federal judiciary. As the leader of the newly formed Supreme Court, Jay faced the monumental task of defining the role of the judiciary in the young republic. He served from 1789 to 1795, during which time the Court heard few cases but laid foundational principles for its future authority.Jay's influence extended beyond the bench. He played a key role in shaping foreign policy, including negotiating the 1794 Jay Treaty with Great Britain. His tenure helped establish the Supreme Court as an independent branch of government, though the Court's full power would only be realized in later decades. Jay resigned from the Court in 1795 to become Governor of New York, but his legacy as the first Chief Justice remains integral to the evolution of the U.S. judiciary. His commission set a precedent for the development of a robust and coequal judiciary, a cornerstone of the American system of checks and balances.New York City Mayor Eric Adams has been indicted following a federal corruption probe, raising questions about his political future. The investigation, which began after an FBI raid on a campaign fundraiser's home, has expanded in recent months. Key members of Adams' administration, including his chief counsel and police commissioner, have resigned amid the scrutiny. The charges remain unclear, as the indictment is sealed. Investigations reportedly involve allegations that Adams' campaign accepted illegal donations tied to the Turkish government and pressured officials to approve permits despite safety concerns. Federal agents recently searched the mayor's official residence, Gracie Mansion.Adams, who has denied any wrongdoing, vows to remain in office and fight the charges. Calls for his resignation are growing, including from prominent figures like U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and mayoral challengers. The probes come as Adams seeks re-election and amid challenges like rising crime rates, absenteeism in schools, and the ongoing migrant crisis in New York City.NYC Mayor Eric Adams Indicted After Federal Corruption ProbeNew York Mayor Adams faces criminal indictment, vows to fight charges | ReutersDonald Trump's legal team is appealing a nearly $500 million civil fraud judgment related to his real estate dealings. The case, brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James, resulted in a February 2024 ruling by Judge Arthur Engoron, who found Trump guilty of inflating his net worth to secure better loan terms. Trump was ordered to pay $454.2 million, which has since increased to $478.3 million due to interest. His lawyers argue that the financial statements submitted to banks understated his wealth and claim the case is politically motivated.James' office countered that the lawsuit's goal was to maintain the integrity of New York's commercial markets, and proof of financial losses by the banks was not required under the law. The judgment threatens Trump's business empire and includes a ban on him leading New York companies or seeking loans from state-registered banks. Trump has denied wrongdoing and posted a $175 million bond to prevent asset seizures while his appeal is pending. This case is one of several legal challenges he faces as he campaigns for the 2024 presidential election.Trump to ask New York appeals court to toss nearly $500 mln civil fraud judgment | ReutersCalifornia has filed a landmark lawsuit against ExxonMobil, accusing the company of misleading the public by promoting plastics as recyclable when few are. Filed on September 23, 2024, the case argues that ExxonMobil's actions fueled increased consumption of single-use plastics, worsening the global plastic pollution crisis. This case stands out by targeting the root of the problem—plastic producers—rather than downstream companies. It seeks a multibillion-dollar abatement fund for recycling education and other penalties. The lawsuit is part of a broader push for "extended producer responsibility," which holds manufacturers accountable for the environmental impacts of their products.Experts suggest the false advertising and unfair competition claims in the case have strong backing, but public nuisance claims could be tougher to prove. ExxonMobil is expected to argue that it didn't mislead consumers and that California's own recycling policies are at fault. This lawsuit may inspire other states, such as New York and Massachusetts, to file similar cases, depending on how California's case progresses. The case reflects a growing trend of states using the courts to address environmental concerns amid weakening federal regulations.California's ExxonMobil Suit Marks New Front in Plastics FightA federal court has ruled that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) must take action to address the risk that fluoride in drinking water poses to children's IQ. The case, decided by Judge Edward M. Chen in the Northern District of California, found that adding fluoride to water at the currently recommended level of 0.7 milligrams per liter (mg/L) could lower children's IQ, creating an "unreasonable risk" that requires a regulatory response. While the court did not conclude definitively that fluoridated water is harmful, it mandated that the EPA assess the risk and determine appropriate measures under the 2016 Toxic Substances Control Act amendments.The ruling follows a lawsuit from groups like Food & Water Watch and the Fluoride Action Network, who argued that fluoride's neurotoxic effects pose a public health danger. Scientific studies have shown a significant association between higher fluoride levels and decreased IQ in children. Judge Chen noted that the population exposed to fluoride in the U.S. is vast, including two million pregnant women and 300,000 formula-fed infants. Despite past recommendations to lower the maximum contaminant limit, the EPA has not yet revised its standards.The court's decision, which bypasses the EPA's earlier denials of citizen petitions, marks a historic moment in the long-standing debate over water fluoridation.EPA Must Reduce Fluoride's IQ Risks to Children, Court Says (1) This is a public episode.

Title: Out-of-Control Judge: Trump vs Engoron at the New York Supreme CourtIt is no secret that Donald Trump has had his fair share of courtroom disputes. However, recent unravellings at the New York State Supreme Court have catapulted Trump's legal encounters to the forefront of the public eye yet again. The storm is focused on Judge Arthur Engoron, whom Trump has forcefully derided as being 'out-of-control.'The session that caught Trump's ire was the closing arguments in the Trump Organization's civil fraud trial on January 11. Details around these closing statements and their subsequent impact on the case's decision have captivated a nation used to Trump's often explosive legal narratives. Donald Trump's frustration centers around Judge Engoron, who is presiding over the trial. Trump's abrasive remark against Engoron stands in stark contrast to the latter's esteemed reputation in the New York court system. It's not often you hear of a judge being labeled 'out-of-control,' yet it seems Judge Engoron's handling of this trial has not gone down well with Trump.Judge Arthur Engoron is a well-established figure within the New York State Supreme Court. His no-nonsense approach towards courtroom proceedings has earned him high respect in the legal fraternities. His legal acumen, combined with relentless devotion towards the maintenance of justice, has often put him in the public spotlight. However, being at the receiving end of a Trump tirade has undoubtedly amplified attention towards him.The trial itself revolves around the Trump Organization and claims of civil fraud. Such allegations, if proven, could gravely impact the reputation and future operations of the business entity. The gravity of this case is not lost on the courtroom or the public, explaining the high degree of scrutiny over Engoron's presiding.It will definitely be interesting to monitor how this tense relationship between Trump and Judge Engoron unfolds as the trial progresses. Public opinion is already divided with some expressing their support for Trump's bold denouncement, while others back Engoron's commitment to delivering justice unhindered.This saga overvolving the Trump Organization has sparked a flurry of discussions over the court's authority, the defendant's rights, and the thin, often blurred line that separates the two. With the concluding arguments having been made on January 11, the nation now closely observes how Judge Arthur Engoron will drive the case to its final verdict.It's clear that this high-stakes lawsuit has much more than just the future of Trump's commercial empire at its core. The interplay between key individuals like Trump and Engoron will likely set crucial legal precedents and influence how such trials are conducted in the future.One thing's for sure - the symbiotic relationship between magnates such as Trump and the judicial system continues to create gripping headlines that captivate a global audience. The courtroom's verdict will undeniably have far-reaching implications - whatever it may be.
President Trump submitted his 116-page appeal of Leticia James' $454 million judgment in New York.Trump-hating Judge Arthur Engoron once again refused to recuse himself after having an inappropriate conversation with another lawyer at the Courthouse.After being ridiculed by Trump on Truth Social, the Obamas finally had to bend the knee to Kamala.Trump mocked Kamala and the Media's desperate attempt to 'De-bait and Switch' herself in for her cowardly boss Joe Biden, who fled the agreed-upon date in disgrace after getting obliterated in Round 1.
Former U.S. President Donald Trump is currently appealing a monumental $450 million New York fraud ruling following a decade of misconduct accusations, according to a report by The Washington Post. Trump's lawyers argue that Judge Arthur Engoron, who presided over the lawsuit, made severe errors during the course of the proceedings.The former president has been under the microscope of New York legal bodies for quite some time. The current legal battle marks a pivotal moment in Trump's career, as losing the appeal could potentially result in the largest financial blow in his long career as a real estate mogul.The allegations claim that for over a decade, Trump engaged in fraudulent activities which caused severe financial damage to multiple stakeholders. Despite these serious charges, Trump's legal team remains resolute in their defense. They argue that there were serious errors in Judge Arthur Engoron's fact-finding process, potentially putting the credibility of the entire verdict into question.If the appeal fails, the legal and financial repercussions could have wide-ranging implications for Trump. While he weathered a number of legal storms during his business career and his tenure as President, the sheer size of the potential damages in this case mark it as a lawsuit of major significance.This case further underscores the complex and controversial career of Donald Trump, whose activities in the political, business, and now legal realms have been pervasively monitored and hotly debated. This ongoing litigation not only stands as a pivotal point in Trump's post-presidential life but also serves as a key case in the examination of financial responsibility and accountability in high-level real estate transactions.In the same vein, this news holds major implications for the watchful public eye, standing as an example of the legal and financial consequences of alleged misconduct at the highest levels of business and government. Irrespective of personal political leanings, the outcome of this case promises significant developments in the landscape of legal and economic power dynamics. Meanwhile, Jack Smith, a well-reputed legal analyst, suggests that the likelihood of the appeal succeeding is uncertain. According to Smith's analysis, there are multiple factors that can impact the appellate court's ruling, including the specifics of the alleged misconduct, the strength of the evidence presented, and the overall strategy employed by Trump's legal team. Smith advises observers to keep a close eye on the ongoing legal battle. Whether the appeal by Trump's legal team is successful or not ultimately matters less than the lessons it imparts. Regardless of the outcome, this case stands as a stark reminder of the crucial interplay between business, politics, and the law, and the potential consequences of fraudulent activities. It continues to hold the public's attention and will undoubtedly remain a significant part of Trump's legacy.

Prominent investor and personality behind Shark Tank, Kevin O'Leary, expressed his concern recently over the staggering $350 million fraud ruling against former President Donald Trump in New York. The ruling made O'Leary question the feasibility of any future investment ventures in what he described as the 'mega loser state' of New York. He expressed confusion and disbelief during a Fox Business Network interview on 'Cavuto Coast To Coast', stressing he wasn't alone in his sentiment. O'Leary made it clear that regardless of the statements made by the state's governor, he viewed New York, along with other states like California, as unattractive for investment due to their policies, hefty tax systems, and restrictive regulations. These factors, he believes, inevitably elevate these states to the top of the 'loser states' list and could deter potential investors, himself included. O'Leary's comments should serve as a wake-up call for the citizens of New York, urging them to question why their state is no longer appealing to investors. It's not only about keeping existing businesses from moving to more affordable states like Texas and Florida but also about attracting fresh investments. O'Leary offered a hypothetical of refusing placement of a hypothetical $4 billion-dollar data center to emphasise his point. According to his reasoning, not only existing establishments but prospective major investments are less likely to opt for New York under the present circumstances. Calling on responsible bodies, O'Leary points out that the state has substantial work cut out to reroute the current trajectory which has been largely formed in the aftermath of the pandemic. He calls for a comparison with prospering states like Tennessee, whose capital, Nashville, is becoming a fast-growing city thanks to sensible policies and competitive taxes. With regard to the standpoint of former President Trump, it's clear that he intends to challenge the definition of fraud that led to the colossal $355 million judgment in a New York civil trial. The case has yet to unfold fully under the hands of Chris Kise, Trump's lead attorney. Further update suggests that the timing of the appeal will be determined by a variety of factors and it will work within the 30-day appeal window that the court allows. The lead attorney levelled accusations at both New York Attorney General Letitia James and presiding Judge Arthur Engoron, stating that they appear committed to expelling Trump from New York.6 Kise maintains that the case brings to light critical legal and constitutional queries in terms of 'fraud' allegations, without any genuine fraud being established. He further laments it as an unfortunate day for the city. Rewinding to September 2022, Letitia James initiated a legal suit against Trump, his sons Donald Jr. and Eric, the Trump Organization, and two firm executives - Allen Weisselberg and Jeff McConney. It transpired in trial that Trump had overstated his belongings to secure more favourable business loans, as found by Judge Engoron. The trial that spanned late last year into early January was aimed at figuring out the monetary damages to be paid by the former president and his associates. A decision issued on February 16 stated Donald Trump was to pay a fine of roughly $355 million, making a significant impact. Additionally, Trump, Weisselberg, and McConney faced injunctions from holding positions as officers or directors of any New York corporation for three years. Trump's progeny, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump were liable for payments exceeding $4 million each, with their business activities in the state halted for 2 years. Significantly, Trump disputes all claims of misconduct, calling the entire situation a politically fuelled campaign. The outcome of the appeal rests largely on the interpretation 'fraud' used in the proceedings. Legal expert Greg Germain, from the Syracuse University of Law, gave insights to Newsweek, stating that Trump would have to demonstrate that the New York AG does not have the authority to penalize him without showing conventional elements of fraud, which include causation, damages, intent to defraud, and others. Interestingly, James' team counters by asserting they are not obligated to establish all six components due to New York's Executive Order 63.12. The order simplifies the procedures of prosecuting fraud with civil claims and subpoenas, with one banking official alleging that loan qualifications were not based solely on Trump's declarations.

This week on Ring of Fire! At his fundraiser this past weekend, Donald Trump promised the crowd of wealthy supporters that he would fight to keep their taxes low if he gets back into office. This was part of his sales pitch to ensure that they give him money for his campaign. The wealthy class doesn't care about his coup attempt or his criminal charges or the threat he poses to the country - all they care about is saving a few million dollars a year on their taxes. The company that is backing Donald Trump's fraud trial bond has come under fire from prosecutors, and Judge Arthur Engoron has even scheduled a hearing with the company to determine if they can even afford to post it. And now new reports have found some serious discrepancies with the actual contract that the company produced for the bond that could result in it being completely thrown out. Lindsey Graham wasn't happy with Donald Trump's recent comments about letting states decide what rights women are allowed to have (Lindsey wants the federal government to take those rights away,) and this prompted Trump to go nuclear against his former friend. But it didn't end there. Later in the day, Trump decided to finish off Graham for good, and Trump said that he takes the blame for Graham existing in the Senate because his endorsement is what saved his career. It is safe to say that, for now, this relationship appears to be over. A federal judge has taken the unusual step of sending a letter to the "friends and allies" of a convicted Capitol Rioter, warning them to stop saying that the man did "nothing wrong" and to stop condoning and downplaying political violence. While the letter was supposedly meant for the convict's inner circle, it read more like a warning to the Republican Party itself that continues to downplay what happened on January 6th. All that, and much more, on this week's Ring of Fire Podcast!
So it looks like the person that put up the $175 million bond to stop New York Attorney General Leticia James from seizing Trump's properties - a guy named Don Hankey - is not actually credentialed to do business in New York. Accordingly, Attorney General James filed a "notice of exception" to the bond, and Judge Arthur Engoron has now set a hearing for April 22nd.

The wheels of justice moved on Monday, as an appeals court in New York decided that the bond presumed nominee Donald Trump must post to safeguard his assets amid a civil fraud case could be considerably less than originally stated. The court, arbitrating the case brought forward by New York Attorney General And Honorable Letitia James, declared that a bond of $175 million, as opposed to the prior stipulation of $454 million, would suffice. This ruling caused ripples as it was originally the decision of Judge Arthur Engoron who dealt the proverbial blow of $454 million. Trump's legal team had argued that expecting to find a surety company willing to back such an exorbitant bond was akin to finding a needle in a haystack. The impending deadline to obtain the original bond was closing in rapidly before the panel of five judges extended the timeframe by an additional ten days, granting Trump the opportunity to secure the downsized bond. This unforeseen turn of events serves as a setback for Attorney General James. She had been gearing up to place a freeze on Trump's bank accounts and confiscate a portion of his real estate holdings in the wake of his legal challenge. The DC Enquirer, previously reported about James' initial steps to claim Trump's assets as the struggle to find an underwriter for the substantial $454 million bond unfolded. In the light of these developments, Trump's legal team had admitted to a painstaking search that led them to meet with a multitude of surety companies. Despite their tenacious efforts and extensive interactions with these firms, they were unable to secure the necessary funding or find a willing underwriter for the initial bond size.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This past week, a definitive ruling from a New York appeals court set a new precedent, lightening the financial obligations of the Republican frontrunner, Donald Trump. This decision stemmed from an ongoing civil fraud case where Judge Arthur Engoron had previously decreed that a stunning $454 million fine must be imposed on Trump. The appeals court has pared this down, asserting that Trump should post a reduced bond of $175 million in lieu of an impending seizure of his assets, as initially proposed by New York Attorney General, Letitia James. Trump's unexpected victory set off a flurry of reactions, not least from MSNBC guest Tristan Snell, previously recognized for his role as the assistant attorney general in New York. Snell keenly voiced criticism, concentrating on what he perceives as biased treatment towards Trump. Overwhelmed with frustration, he questioned the methodology adopted by the court in reaching this significant outcome. 'This is a completely unique procedure adopted for one particular person,' Snell commented, visibly agitated. He went on to depict an image of Trump as a caricature of privilege, living in a sphere of private jets, elite social clubs, and enjoying the provision of a unique justice system. On any other day, any other person, an unequivocal judgment would have meant the demise of a case. But for Trump, Snell was explicit in his claim of the creation of a bespoke set of rules. In an interesting twist, Snell's claim actually throws light on a different disparity. Trump, the 45th president, has repeatedly found himself at the receiving end of continuous and unabated attacks from critics situated amongst high-ranking prosecutors and judges, many with a decidedly left-wing political orientation. Their sole aim, it appears, is to dismantle Trump's chances of a triumphant return to the White House.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In an unfolding dramatic turn of events, highly regarded poll researcher and prevalent CNN commentator, Frank Luntz issued a stark admonition to Letitia James, who currently holds the position of New York's Attorney General. Luntz alerted James to the potential political implications that could ensue if there was an attempt to lay claim to the assets of former President Donald Trump. Trump has been issued an ultimatum to post a bond of $464 million by the 25th of March, or encounter the daunting prospect of having his assets taken over. This ruling was assigned by Judge Arthur Engoron, as a repercussion of accusations that Trump had artificially inflated the estimated worth of his physical assets to secure loans under more attractive terms. Luntz did not mince his words during an appearance on CNN, where he urged James to take heed of the situation. 'Keep this moment in your memory, and don't let it fade', Luntz entreated with utmost gravity. Should James venture to initiate the seizure of Trump's properties, carry out an asset takeover, Luntz pointed out that it would be all captured on camera. He warned that media commentators would dissect the situation vehemently, parroting criticism that would create an unfavorable climate for further elections. Then, drawing an image of intense polarities, Luntz warned of the creation of the most significant martyrdom in the upcoming 2024 elections which could inadvertently lead to re-electing Donald Trump. The viewer simply has to imagine a scenario where Trump has had his possessions taken from him. Presenting that as evidence of a coordinated conspiracy, Trump could claim that the entire establishment, including Washington's marshland, countrywide politicians, and Attorneys General, was plotting to deny him his rightful place in the presidential office. According to Luntz's reasoning, this would lead to a rising trend in Trump's favorability polls. He highlighted how the legal troubles Trump had faced in the past had paradoxically contributed to an increase in his popularity. Drawing attention to the seizure of assets, he predicted a repeat of this phenomenon, with criminal charges acting as a boomerang reflecting even greater support for Trump at the polls. Speaking directly into the camera, addressing the attorney general, Luntz cautioned her against succumbing to political machinations. He compared the present situation with the actions of state secretaries in Colorado and Maine. In both regions, despite the opposition's attempts to tarnish Trump's reputation, his approval ratings actually soared. Luntz iterated that his disbelief was almost rendering him wordless, shaking his head at the clumsiness of the anti-Trump party. Luntz's fiery commentary concluded with him branding the opposition's efforts as pitifully misguided, underscoring this point by calling their tactics in dealing with Trump horrendous 'misfires'. He sounded almost incredulous at how counterproductive their actions have been, warning that the ongoing lawsuit may just be yet another misstep in a long line of tactical blunders. The lawsuit, it should be noted, was initially launched by James against the Trump Organization. Accusations swirled with claims that Trump was guilty of fraudulent activity, inflating the estimated value of his property holdings and financial wealth with the express purpose of obtaining loans on better terms. The pursuit of justice was initially directed toward securing $250 million in damages. However, as the lawsuit began making its way through the courts, James amended her request, now seeking $370 million. The final ruling, delivered by Judge Engoron on the 16th of February, brought some resolution to the matter. The ruling was in favor of James, with the judge ruling that Trump should pay out $350 million in damages. This noteworthy ruling came five months after an initial finding by Engoron that former President Trump and his business empire, the Trump Organization, had engaged in fraudulent behavior. However, amidst the barrage of legal disputes and decisions, the voice of caution resonates. Luntz's cautionary predictions suggest that these could be the stepping stones towards another political comeback for Donald Trump. Looking at the entire scenario from a bird's eye view, there's an intriguing play of action and reaction unfolding. Trump's previous brushes with legal confrontations led to him growing in popularity. Will this case proceed on the same trajectory? It would seem poised to do so, especially if Trump positions himself as a victim of a coordinated effort, as Luntz has suggested. However, while his predictions offer a fascinating perspective, they cannot be taken as absolute truth. Only time will reveal the tangible consequences of these unfolding dramas. What's clear, though, is the situation has all the elements necessary to create a high-stakes political theater. The stage is set, the actors are ready, and the entire nation is watching with bated breath. Such unique circumstances make it all the more crucial for those involved in the Trump case to act with utmost circumspection. Each action taken, each decision made, will contribute to a larger narrative. Ignoring the potential recoil, as Luntz dutifully highlighted, is a perilous mistake that could provoke unintended reactions from a politically aware and sensitive electorate. In the same vein, the example of past states like Colorado and Maine provides invaluable lessons. Tactless maneuvers, seemingly aimed at damaging Trump's reputation, ended up doing the opposite. And as both sides brace themselves for what comes next, they would do well to consider the possible and even probable fallout of their actions. The saga of Trump, his assets, his lawsuits, and his political career is far from over and the twists and turns remaining in this compelling narrative are yet to be discovered.

Former President Donald Trump is facing "insurmountable difficulties" in obtaining a bond to satisfy the $464 million civil fraud judgment, his attorneys said Monday in a new appellate court filing, and the magnitude of which would require him to use real estate as collateral.Judge Arthur Engoron in February ordered Trump to pay $464 million in disgorgement and interest after holding him liable for doing a decade's worth of business with fraudulent financial statements that overvalued his real estate holdings and hyped his wealth. Trump was also barred from leading any New York company for three years. His sons Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump were also fined $4 million apiece and barred for two years."Defendants have faced what have proven to be insurmountable difficulties in obtaining an appeal bond for the full $464 million," according to an affirmation by Trump Organization general counsel Alan Garten.While his lawyer said Trump is "financially stable" and maintains "substantial assets," the magnitude of the judgment would require him to use his real estate as collateral for the bond. So far, according to Garten's affirmation, no surety bond provider approached by Trump is willing to accept real estate as collateral, including Chubb, the insurance giant underwriting Trump's $91.6 million bond to cover the $83 million judgment in the E. Jean Carroll defamation case, plus interest.Surprise, Surprise! Putin Wins Another Russian “Election” That Vladimir Putin won his “election” is not a shocker. Exit polls show he came away with 88% of the vote. That it wasn't 100% is the surprise. The “win” gives Putin six more years in power at a time when his invasion of Ukraine has the world fearing what he'll do next. Trump gave a whopper of a campaign speech over the weekend. He warned of “bloodshed” if he doesn't win in November. He also said the January 6th Committee should be jailed and that some undocumented immigrants aren't people. It seems he's doubling down on the hate and revenge.True Crime Corner brings Courtney to the show with a story she's been researching for weeks.

The legal representation of Donald Trump, the 45th President and former GOP frontrunner, have publicly acknowledged an obstacle in securing necessary funds to cover a significant fine of $454 million, levied against him. This fine comes from a civil fraud lawsuit, overseen by Judge Arthur Engoron, instigated by Letitia James, the current Attorney General of New York. Should Trump be unable to meet the financial demands of this fine, James has not wavered in her intent to marshal the confiscation of some of Trump's assets as a viable course of action. Trump's legal team states, with a note of difficulty, that raising a bond to the tune of the judgment, now grown to a staggering $464 million with added interest, is a Herculean task - an assertion few doubt. Last month, the team tried to post a smaller bond of $100 million, but their efforts were in vain. The pursuit of a cooperative insurance company that could undertake this bond has been largely fruitless, despite their repeated outreach to nearly 30 surety firms. Writing to the court, Trump's lawyers elucidated: 'A bond of such magnitude is practically unattainable given the current circumstances, despite all earnest attempts.' These attempts included the engagement of 4 independent brokers and the proposition of bonding to about 30 surety companies. All these efforts, however, appear to have borne little fruit. The clock is ticking for President Trump, with only the upcoming week left to post the bond. Failure to do so authorizes James to kickstart the collection of the hefty fine through the appropriation of Trump's assets - a course she is apparently more than ready to take.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
A new survey of RNC members shows that a good percentage of them, possibly even a majority, are ok with the organization using their very limited funds to pay for Donald Trump's legal bills. The only problem with this idea is that it is 100% illegal, even according to the conservative Supreme Court. Once a candidate is officially "declared" as running for an office, Parties are expressly prohibited from paying ANY of their legal fees.Also, Donald Trump is once again re-upping his demand that President Biden start debating him NOW, even though Trump skipped out on every Republican primary debate. Trump did not perform well in the first round of Presidential debates against Biden in 2020, but things have changed for both men in the nearly four years since that time. But Trump may be onto something with these calls for debates.And the investigation into the fake elector scheme in Arizona is both heating up and possibly drawing to a conclusion. According to new reports, a recent batch of subpoenas from a grand jury could be an indication that the Arizona attorney general could soon be bringing charges against members of Donald Trump's 2020 campaign for their role in the fake elector scheme in the state.Finally, Donald Trump's lawyers Alina Habba and Clifford Robert could be in serious trouble now that Allen Weisselberg has accepted a plea deal for lying under oath. Several weeks ago, Judge Arthur Engoron demanded answers from the two Trump lawyers about a possible plea deal after it was reported in The New York Times, and both lawyers decided to NOT actually answer the judge's request and instead told him not to believe everything he reads. If they had knowledge of the plea deal in advance, they could both be facing serious legal consequences over these responses.Subscribe to our YouTube channel to stay up to date on all of Farron's content: https://www.youtube.com/FarronBalancedFollow Farron on social media!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FarronBalanced/Twitter: https://twitter.com/farronbalancedInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/farronbalancedTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@farronbalanced?lang=en
David Waldman ends the week, begins the month, concludes business and gets this party started. The Senate passed a spending bill, pushing the shutdown down one week. After all, when Joan McCarter comes to KITM each week, it only makes sense. The Boebert crime family is perhaps outscoring the Palin crime family… the math part would be tough on either set... but Tyler Boebert might soon have MVP locked up in felony convictions. Tyler's stealing from a woman saving up for brain tumor surgery might not go over well with the jury. He might get sympathy still as a new father, but not with his co-defendant who he made the sex tape with. Hunter Biden went into a closed-door résumé-measuring contest yesterday and came out the clear winner, though he's certainly no Jared Kushner. Donald Trump tried to art-of-the-deal Judge Arthur Engoron from $400 million down to $100 million. Judge Engoron passed on the chance to be the loser-chump punchline for the next several Trump rallies and turned him down. Always a man of subtle nuance, Donald explains that he's too rich to pay $88 million, yet too poor for anything over a hundred. The founders of Truth Social actually thought they'd be the first ones to enter a relationship with Donald Trump and not be cheated. When Trump isn't cheating, he is evading or delaying, that's it. His entire life experience demonstrates that the system was built to accommodate his parasitical nature. TFFG is now appealing/evading/delaying an Illinois judge's ruling removing him from the primary ballot. Constitutional lawyers are being chilled and having their socks knocked off. Are today's constitutional scofflaws making it impossible to teach, or should their professors have taught them to better behave back when they were students? Should Joe Biden tell the public what the government knows about Trump's collusion, or should Russian hackers?
This episode has everything: a how-to guerilla guide to improving your McDonald's hamburger experience; a spirited discussion of the Alabama Supreme Court decision that defines frozen embryos as persons (Steve thinks the media is willfully misreporting the decision—John is not so sure); those crazy new presidential rankings from political scientists—and even some soft-core porn! Say what? Well, it turns out that that Judge Arthur Engoron, who oversaw Trump's alleged fraud trial in New York City, apparently has a case of Anthony Weiner envy, and posted some rather racy locker room pics of himself some years back. And right in the middle of our discussion Lucretia flashed the pictures up on the Zoom screen, sending John and Steve rushing for some eye-bleach. There must be something in the bottled water Manhattan Democrats drink. (And doesn't Engoron sound like the name of a dwarve or elve who goes bad in Lord of the Rings?) Click through the link here if you are brave.In any case, we do finally get around to a new segment of the 3WHH, where we note three articles from the last week for what they can tell us about something. John chose those stupid presidential rankings; Lucretia chose an MSNBC article from leftist columnist Paul Waldman that unwittingly admits that everything conservatives say about the administrative state is completely true; and Steve picked Karol Markowitz's NY Post column reflecting on how recent social science that ratifies the conservative view that two-parent families are the best way to raise children is so contoversial with the left, which is no surprise.
After Dark with Hosts Rob & Andrew – Businesses in New York face unprecedented threats from political forces. Attorney General Letitia James and Judge Arthur Engoron have leveraged the legal system against Donald Trump, imposing a massive fine and seeking to bar him and his sons from executive roles. This case exemplifies the intense political and legal battles shaping New York's business and political landscape.
Judge Arthur Engoron hits Donald Trump's business with a $350 million judgment in a desperate attempt to bankrupt him; the new anti-American axis rides again; and Joy Reid wants reparations.

[SEGMENT 1-1] Shock and Awe 1 What should we be focused on if we really wanted to change America? We have Democrats on the ropes in all areas of society: Crime; just saw illegals beat down 2 NYPD cops. What better example of Leftism can you find? Defund the Police, take THAT! And how about we revisit building that wall? And what about Affirmative Action: Talk about showcase that monumental fail front and center, look at Fani Willis. Her appearance was a trainwreck. Letitia James will likely get a temporary win, but it will be overturned. Alvin Bragg's case is doomed. The justice system? Forget how Fani Willis is behaving, let's not forget the Bidens. Now we are told that the chief FBI whistleblower is a LIAR? Well we can't have a LIAR in our midst, when the job is to protect the Liar-In-Chief and his family. Super Bowl shooter. Those dang GUNS! All distractions from what? The corrupt Biden family; would you want to investigate fully a business with ties to our enemy, and who is selling influence in our political system. Shouldn't this be JOB ONE? How much scratching around the surface can we do, when we have all the evidence. And now Democrats pretend that our evidence is bogus with this latest farce. More on that in a bit. [SEGMENT 1-2] Shock and Awe 2 [X] SB – Jill Biden blames Trump on border https://twitter.com/RNCResearch/status/1758170556166197692 Joe and Jill Biden walk in front of a big valentine on the WH lawn after having taken a picture in front of it. As they head towards the WH, Joe asks Jill if they want to get a picture in front of it. She responds, we already did. Inflation through the roof. Or is it? Not according to Biden. Just when you start believing the life that you're living, the Biden administration reports new data. Now you can recalibrate. Data emerges about Covid that doesn't support the government experts, yet no apologies. No recompense for those hurt by the allegations of being anti-vaxxers or spreading disinformation. Even to this day, the Left try to act as if their being BLATANTLY wrong is not their fault. They did their DUTY and trusted the experts. [X] SB – Media mashup Covid do your own research Don't let it dominate your life?! Everyone should be afraid of Covid Won't be free until we look at the acknowledged truth Science is truth. Openly questioning science Do what you are told You are a THREAT! A denier Seek out the scientists. Trust the experts. Do my own research. Roots of this phrase Tased over not wearing mask. Want to KILL them. Don't listen to Trump. But listen to Gates Follow science The government lying about a supposedly deadly disease that cost $6T and we are no more safe than we were previously. Who all is involved in that lie? The border invasion that disrupts every area of our lives… Joe Biden IS old and demented [SEGMENT 1-3] Shock and Awe 3 Atlanta Fani Willis had another chance to make her case. Prosecutors are often frustrated actors, and prone to courtroom theatrics. Fani is no exception. Too bad, as one wag put it 'every time she opens her mouth she admits to another felony.' She really has been promoted above her level of competence. Looks like she, and her case, will be tossed out pretty soon. Of course, to Fani, all of this is a lie, and she is not really on trial here. NY This was another grand theatre performance. Judge Arthur Engoron, who has made quite a few courtroom performances, decided that Trump was guilty (without allowing him a defense or to even speak), and fined him $364 million for 'fraud' and ordered him not to conduct business in NY for three years, nor to use any NY bank for that time. PersecutionThis is really blatant political persecution, trying to bankrupt the opposition and keep them off the ballot. Unlikely that this will hold up on appeal. What is likely is that 'as you treat others, so shall you be treated'. Keep an eye on this judge. At some point, things are not going to go well for him. NYC By the way, the average price for a one-topping pizza in NY now is $34 - thanks to the politicians, illegals, criminals and court system. No wonder people are moving out as fast as they can. Gangs The illegals who attacked the cops and beat them were members of the gang "Tran de Aragua". They were released after a local sanctuary church posted bail for them. (The Venezuelan gang is 'teaming' with MS-13, the animals from El Salvador. Ed) 23 & Me This company has tanked. They collected DNA on millions of people, and now all that data is compromised. Big Tech and various government agencies now have access to all that very personal information, and no restrictions on what they do with it. So much to look forward to... Tranny of the Year This person calls his/her self Pattie Gonia. Looks like the makeup is applied with a trowel. [SEGMENT 1-4] Shock and Awe 4 - Backfire Despite shock and awe, we as conservatives are FEASTING! Two things are about to happen that won't be good for Joe Biden or the Democrats. First, America will learn the truth about how the Biden family used Joe Biden for their individual grifts. Second, Joe Biden will be outed for being a corrupt politician, no different from most of his Democrat cronies. Regarding the latter, Biden's days are numbered. So Leftist elites have authorized the leak of information formerly kept under wraps in the media. Case in point, this article in Politico about Jim Biden's health care scam. Politico explains, In 2017, a hospital operator set out to build a rural health care empire with the help of a Philadelphia-area consultant. The consultant, Jim Biden, had no experience running hospitals. But he did understand the federal government and had ties to labor unions. Perhaps more important, he was the younger brother of Joe Biden. Sound familiar? A Biden family member involving himself in business where he has no experience? What could Jim Biden possibly be selling? I suspect if "investigators" follow the money, there will be a circuitous path that ends with "the big guy" getting his part. The article further explains that Joe Biden understood the finality of his tenure as Obama's VP. The final years of the Obama administration had cemented the former vice president's towering stature in the world of health care, where he had made the fight against cancer a top federal priority and, then, a centerpiece of his legacy-building efforts. For then 67-year-old Jim Biden, the third of four Biden siblings, his ties to his older brother made up much of his pitch as he pursued deals that could help Americore make money from drug rehab, lab testing and even cancer treatment. “This would be a perfect platform to expose my Brothers team to [your] protocol,” Jim Biden wrote to the CEO of a Tampa-area company that controlled licensing rights to an experimental cancer treatment the hospital operator wanted to offer. “Could provide a great opportunity for some real exposure.” Recall that Obama put Joe Biden in charge of curing cancer. How did Biden perform? Like a Biden. I documented how Biden's cancer charity was a scam: The charity took in $4,809,619 in contributions in fiscal years 2017 and 2018, and spent $3,070,301 on payroll in those two years. The group's president, Gregory Simon, raked in $429,850 in fiscal 2018 (July 1, 2018, to June 30, 2019), according to the charity's most recent federal tax filings. Simon, a former Pfizer executive and longtime health care lobbyist who headed up the White House's cancer task force in President Barack Obama's administration, saw his salary nearly double from the $224,539 he made in fiscal 2017, tax filings show. With a scam like this, why not introduce the Biden family racket to the health care industry. They could print money. The article continues, The email, obtained by POLITICO from a person close to the company, documents one of the many ways in which Jim Biden invoked his brother's name and clout in the course of his work with Americore, which has since gone bankrupt, wreaking havoc in rural communities in the process. Unearthed email? Joe Biden was vetted, and Democrats knew every detail of his life. The pathological lies. The philandering and sexual assaults. And of course the grifts. Joe Biden has been for sale for decades. After he was hand-picked from the collection of Leftist losers to get shoe-horned as POTUS in the coup of Trump, Biden was given a license to steal. He could fully entrenched himself in his family's larceny, behind the scenes of course. Duplicate email accounts with fake names, multiple bank accounts, and burner phones is how the family operated. Undoubtedly, no legitimate business in America operates like the Biden family businesses. And you can bet if Trump set his businesses up like this, the entire Trump family would be in prison, including Barron. While Leftists focus on Donald Trump's admitted and sanctioned business bankruptcies, they never discuss those of the Bidens. Almost every deal touched by the Bidens ends up in bankruptcy or insolvency of some sort. The bigger the company, the bigger the fall. Americore. Gone. Burisma. Gone. Even the partnership the Biden family had with a Chinese spy who worked for the Chinese Communist Party. Gone. America. GONE! Why would anybody "invest" with the Bidens? The Bidens bring no market expertise to any businesses they pursue. Worse, they suck millions of dollars from the bottom line; yet companies seem anxious to work with them. Back to the email. Th
Stephen Curry might be considered the greatest shooter in basketball history. But Sabrina Ionescu certainly made him prove it Saturday night as part of NBA All-Star Weekend. The Golden State Warriors guard edged the New York Liberty guard 29-26 in an NBA vs. WNBA 3-point contest -- the first of its kind. Ionescu opened by making seven straight shots before finishing with a total score of 26 -- which happened to tie the highest score by any NBA player in the 3-point contest held earlier Saturday night and won by the Milwaukee Bucks' Damian Lillard. With a 92-page order issued late Friday, Judge Arthur Engoron dealt Donald Trump a legal and financial blow that could permanently damage the business empire that propelled him to the presidency. Beyond the staggering $355 million Trump was ordered to pay -- likely to climb to over $450 million with interest -- Engoron temporarily stripped Trump and his sons of the ability to lead their own businesses or apply for financing. The penalties -- which New York Attorney General Letitia James applauded as effective ways to "ensure this fraud cannot continue" -- leave the Trump Organization in legal, financial and personnel limbo, as the former president embarks on a costly presidential campaign amid his ongoing legal battles. around 4.8 billion, some popular platforms are losing favour. Reports indicate that, on average, users engage with six to seven different platforms each month and spend approximately two hours and 24 minutes per day on them. Though social media apps are integral to the daily lives of millions, their popularity can diminish rapidly. According to a report by TRG Datacentres, a US-based tech firm, Meta's Threads app which gained 100 million users in five days saw an 80 per cent drop in daily active users since its launch in July 2023. According to the report, many social media apps struggled to stay relevant throughout the year prompting the organisation to carry out a survey on popular apps that fell out of favour this year.

In this episode Hawk delves into the intricacies of the 92-page order delivered by Judge Arthur Engoron in the Civil Fraud Trial brought by New York State Attorney General Letitia James against Donald Trump, his two adult sons,and the Trump Organization. The burden of proof in this case, being a civil one, is the preponderance of evidence, a lower standard than in criminal cases. Hawk then provides an overview of the seven causes of action in the case and highlights the significant motion for summary judgment granted by the judge, establishing a decade-long pattern of fraudulent behavior. The episode breaks down the defenses presented by the Trumps and their attorneys, including claims of no fraud and shifting blame to accountants. Hawk discusses the judge's comprehensive findings of fact and reveals the extent of deception, including false financial statements, persistent fraud, and deceitful practices. They basically lied to everyone about everything all of the time, including lying to one another. In the latter part of the podcast, the discussion centers around various witnesses and their testimonies in the trial. Notably, the focus is on Michael Cohen, who, despite being a convicted perjurer, was deemed credible by the court. Cohen's testimony was corroborated by other trial evidence. The judge's assessment of Cohen's credibility is highlighted, underscoring the importance of his truthful testimony despite the evident animosity between him and Donald Trump. Additionally there were inadequacies and contradictions of expert witnesses presented by the Trump defense team. Several experts are discussed with the court finding their testimonies lacking credibility, being inconsistent, unsupported, and contradicted by other evidence.

Judge Arthur Engoron has fined Donald Trump more than $350 million in damages in the former president's civil fraud case. Trump is also barred him from running businesses in New York for three years. Trump said on Friday that he would appeal the decision. Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O'Donnell join for a special episode of Alex Wagner Tonight to discuss the ruling. For more coverage, visit msnbc.com.
Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with major breaking news from New York in the jaw-dropping number of $453,500,000. That is the amount Judge Arthur Engoron has ruled Donald Trump has to pay in his New York civil fraud case which includes nearly $100 million dollars in interest. That number will continue to grow until he pays. Engoron also ruled that Trump is barred from personally running a business in New York for the next three years. Engoron's ruling also hits the elder Trump sons, fining Eric Trump and Donald Trump, Jr. $4 million apiece, and fining Trump's longtime business manager Allen Weisselberg $1 million dollars. Joy and her expert guests discuss this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.serioustrouble.showLate Friday, Judge Arthur Engoron issued his long-awaited verdict in the civil fraud lawsuit brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James, and it orders Trump and his affiliated entities to disgorge nearly $400 million to the state of New York for what he says are ill-gotten profits and interest savings made possible by financial misrepresentations. It's a big judgment — and like the judgment in the E. Jean Carroll case, one he'll have to put cash up for pretty soon, even if there will be years of appeals. Ken and I discuss what this means for Trump and his businesses, and whether (again, like in the Carroll case) he ended up with a worse legal outcome because he was so obnoxious during the trial process.Plus: in Washington D.C., the Supreme Court is considering whether to overturn Colorado's decision blocking Donald Trump from that state's presidential ballot on 14th Amendment grounds. It can be hazardous to read into oral arguments, but the judges' questions did not seem auspicious for Colorado. Meanwhile, the court must now decide (and will, probably any day now) whether to involve itself in Trump's January 6-related federal criminal case. Special Counsel Robert Hur decided not to recommend any criminal charges against President Joe Biden related to his handling of classified documents, but the White House was less than thrilled about Hur's report explaining why. A Biden accuser faces his own indictment — from Special Counsel David Weiss, who's also prosecuting Hunter Biden — for making up allegations about the Bidens, Burisma and bribes. And finally, we talk about Georgia. What a mess. District Attorney Fani Willis took the stand in a hearing about whether she should be disqualified from the RICO prosecution she brought against Donald Trump on conflict-of-interest grounds related to a romantic relationship she had with Nathan Wade, the special prosecutor she hired to lead the case. The two-day hearing was salacious.Visit serioustrouble.show to become a paying subscriber to our show, and then you'll be able to hear the whole episode.
No surprise, Democrat donor Judge Arthur Engoron orders Donald Trump to pay over $360 Million. Vladimir Putin's only opposition for the upcoming election was found dead — in jail of all places. And Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis cries racism on the stand, and eventually emasculates her alleged lover Nathan Wade while claiming to protect his masculinity.

A New York judge on Friday fined Donald Trump and his business associates more than $350 million, ruling they engaged in a yearslong effort to inflate the value of their assets to defraud banks and insurance companies.

The clock is ticking as the country awaits some significant legal decisions in the coming days and weeks: when will Special Counsel Hur release his long-awaited report on President Biden's handling of classified documents? How will Judge Engoron rule in the New York civil fraud case? And what will the DC Circuit decide when it comes to presidential immunity? MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord review these questions and what to glean from the E. Jean Carroll verdict and the damages awarded. Plus: a veteran federal judge issues a sharp rebuke of those who are trying to re-write the history of the January 6th attacks.Note: this episode contains a graphic description of sexual assault.
Judge Arthur Engoron allowed former President Donald Trump to address the court in his New York civil fraud trial after lawyers wrapped up their closing arguments.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This week on Ring of Fire! According to a court filing last week, Judge Arthur Engoron and his court clerk have received hundreds of threats, and most of them have been deemed "credible" by the threat assessment officials at the court. This information was revealed in a filing that was attempting to state the importance of the gag order against Donald Trump that an appeals court temporarily lifted earlier this month. Trump knows exactly what he is doing, and legal experts say that there's no doubt this is being done on purpose. Republican Congressman James Comer, the Chair of the House Oversight Committee, told Fox News last week that he plans to hold a vote on President Biden's impeachment in early spring, and that he wants to hold the vote sooner rather than later. This means that Republicans are wanting to have Biden impeached by April, which would prevent Democrats from launching a new primary candidate to take over. This is all very calculated for the Republicans, the problem is that they have no evidence to back anything up, even though Comer swears they have "multiple smoking guns." Republican Congressman George Santos seems to be having some mixed emotions right now, especially since his horrific actions were exposed in a recent Ethics Committee report. Santos said that he expects to be expelled when the new vote is held, possibly this week, but he also says he'll wear it like a "badge of honor." But in the same sentence, he also proudly said that he's not going to leave and that it is "over when I say its over." The Republican Party has a lot at stake in 2024, and if their fundraising is any indication, they are going to have a very sad year. A new report says that not only have the big Republican donors been stingy with their money this year, but also that the small-money donors aren't able to give like they had in the past. Add in the fact that you have a historically unpopular fascist at the top of your ticket, and the Republicans could be in for the worst year ever. All that, and much more, on this week's Ring of Fire!

Today's Headlines: There are indications of a potential diplomatic agreement between Israel and Hamas, with Hamas agreeing in principle to a deal involving a temporary ceasefire, the release of hostages, increased humanitarian aid to Gaza, and the release of women and children from Israeli prisons. However, caution is urged, as the deal is in general terms and could still face obstacles. Additionally, President Biden and Chinese leader Xi Jinping held a four-hour diplomatic meeting in California, addressing key points of tension between the U.S. and China, including the resumption of formal military-to-military contact, discussions on Taiwan, cooperation against opioid fentanyl, and economic competition. Meanwhile, Donald Trump has filed a motion for a mistrial in his New York civil fraud case, alleging bias from Judge Arthur Engoron, and the October inflation report indicates a 3.2% rise in the consumer price index, suggesting a potential easing of the Federal Reserve's consecutive rate hikes. The inflation report could influence policymakers' decisions in their upcoming December meeting.

Donald Trump testified in his New York fraud trial and attempted to turn the proceedings into a circus with combative, non-responsive, insulting, and absurd testimony.Glenn says this is precisely what defendants do when they know they can't win on the facts: they attack the prosecutors, the judge, and the process that is trying to hold them accountable for their wrong-doing. The type of testimony that Trump exhibited isn't a sign of strength, it's a sign of weakness. It's not a sign of confidence, it's a sign of fear.Glenn reviews some of Trump's desperate, unpersuasive, and often unhinged testimony before Judge Arthur Engoron in New York and tells of some similar testimony he has experienced in the past..For our Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Please consider becoming a #TeamJustice patron at: https://www.patreon.com/glennkirschnerCheck out Glenn's website at glennkirschner.comFollow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2: House Republicans have passed a bill that would provide Israel with $14.3 billion in aid while simultaneously providing budgetary cuts that would make it deficit neutral. In a post to the social media platform X, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said that the U.S. Senate would not even consider the bill because it separates funding from Ukraine and includes cuts to the IRS that he views as undesirable. On Friday, the House of Representatives voted to cut funding to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) by 39%—the vote was 213 to 203 along mostly party lines with Republican Congressmen Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA), Mike Lawler (R-NY), and Marc Molinaro (R-NY) voting against the bill. This bill illustrates new Speaker of the House Mike Johnson's (R-LA) determination to slash federal government spending.

The ad campaign even included endorsements for candidates that have withdrawn from their races. In response, New Jersey Republican Party sued—alleging that the organization has violated campaign finance reporting laws by shielding donor information. On Friday, “Superior Court Judge Michael Blee said that Jersey Freedom may make no further expenditures in New Jersey, but acknowledged that with Election Day just five days away, his decision might be too late to matter,” according to a report from David Wildstein of The New Jersey Globe.

The decision comes after surveillance videos showed a woman stuffing what appeared to be absentee ballots into an outdoor ballot box days before the original primary. Superior Court Judge William Clark determined the allegations of possible malfeasance warrant throwing out the results of the Sept. 12 primary, which incumbent Bridgeport Mayor Joe Ganim won by 251 votes out of 8,173 cast. Absentee ballots secured his margin of victory.” You can read Haigh's full article: https://www.nbcconnecticut.com/news/local/judge-orders-new-bridgeport-mayoral-primary-after-surveillance-videos-show-possible-ballot-stuffing/3138308/ 3:20pm- On Monday, a Colorado District Court heard opening arguments in a legal case challenging Donald Trump's eligibility to appear on Colorado presidential ballots in 2024.

Kennedy—Kennedy would win an astonishing 22% of the vote. The poll shows Trump would earn 36%, while President Biden would net 39%. 3:50pm- CNN's Manu Raju asked Rep.

Bowman will have to pay a $1,000 fine, serve a three-month probation, and write a letter of apology. 4:05pm- House Republicans have passed a bill that would provide Israel with $14.3 billion in aid while simultaneously providing budgetary cuts that would make it deficit neutral.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2: Donald Trump has been fined $5,000 for violating a court-imposed gag order. Earlier this month, Judge Arthur Engoron barred Trump from criticizing members of the court after the former president jokingly referred to a law clerk as Chuck Schumer's girlfriend in a social media post. According to CNN, Judge Engoron warned Trump about possible imprisonment if the gag order is continually ignored. You can read more here: https://www.cnn.com/2023/10/20/politics/trump-social-media-fraud-trial-warning/index.html As of now several Republicans are believed to be actively pursuing the House speakership, including Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-MN), Representatives Byron Donalds (R-FL), Austin Scott (GA), and Kevin Hern (R-OK). Former Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) has endorsed Emmer. Dr. Victoria Coates— Former Deputy National Security Advisor & the Vice President of the Davis Institute for National Security and Foreign Policy at The Heritage Foundation—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss President Joe Biden's televised address tying Israeli aid to Ukraine.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (10/20/2023): 3:05pm- On Friday, the House of Representatives held a vote to fill the speakership position left vacant following the removal of Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA). The Republican nominee for speaker, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), received 194 votes during Friday's vote—well short of the 217 votes he needed to win a majority of the House and the lowest number Jordan has received yet. In a secret ballot held after Friday's floor vote, Republican House members decided to remove Jim Jordan as their caucus's nominee for the speakership. Jordan spoke with members of the press on Capitol Hill, saying “it was an honor to be their speaker-designee.” According to Luke Broadwater of The New York Times, “Representative Tom Emmer of Minnesota, the No. 3 House Republican, has begun making calls about a bid for speaker.” You can read updates as they are announced here: https://www.nytimes.com/live/2023/10/20/us/house-speaker-vote-jim-jordan/cad01d9b-8ada-54a0-bcb2-c2b6655a0649?smid=url-share 3:15pm- On Thursday night, President Joe Biden delivered a televised address from the Oval Office—calling for a nearly $100 billion foreign aid package that would send $60 billion to Ukraine and $14 billion to Israel. In response to the president's speech, Senator J.D. Vance condemned Biden for attempting to use a terror attack in Israel to raise money for Ukraine. He continued: “Right now America doesn't need client states—we need real allies. If Europeans aren't going to step up and carry their fair share, they are not real allies.
