Trump warned new 'Hail Mary' legal scheme is already doomed: 'They're gonna lose'

President Donald Trump's latest "Hail Mary" legal scheme is almost surely doomed to fail, according to one expert.

On Wednesday, Trump's lawyers filed a motion in New York federal court to remove Trump's 34 felony convictions to federal court. Judge Alvin K. Hellerstein expressed skepticism about the move because Trump's lawyers waited so long after his conviction, according to reports. He also noted the timing seemed conspicuous, given that the Supreme Court issued a ruling granting the president broad immunity before they filed the appeal.

Trump's Supreme Court 'Hail Mary' seems to have crashed and burned: analyst

President Donald Trump is not going to win his bid at the Supreme Court to remove Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook, predicted Vanderbilt University law professor Brian Fitzpatrick on MS NOW Wednesday afternoon.

Trump ordered Cook removed based on unproven and largely debunked allegations from Federal Housing Finance Agency chief Bill Pulte that she engaged in mortgage fraud. Federal Reserve officials can only be removed by the president for cause, and the Trump administration argues the mere accusation of fraud is sufficient cause to qualify. The Supreme Court separately appears poised to give presidents vastly more power to fire officials at independent agencies, but has already signaled they consider the Fed a special case.

Mary Trump calls Davos trip a humiliating blow as president’s Greenland push collapses

Donald Trump returned from Davos empty-handed on his push for Greenland, a public rebuke his niece Mary Trump described as a devastating humiliation rooted in fear, decline, and loss of control. Writing on Substack, Mary Trump said her uncle’s nearly 90-minute World Economic Forum speech — packed with threats and grievances — underscored what she called worsening psychological, cognitive, and physical deterioration, leaving him increasingly unable to manage either himself or the narrative around him. She argued that being seen as a “loser” is Trump’s greatest fear and blamed his allies and enablers for their silence, warning that their continued loyalty to what she described as a destabilizing figure amounts to complicity at a moment of growing domestic and international risk.

Trump family member says president's answer to military question 'should alarm everyone'

Donald Trump's bizarre reply to a question on Iran's militaristic capabilities should worry everyone, his niece Mary Trump has said.

The political commentator and relative of the president urged people to take his words seriously, especially when it came to the military might of a country the administration has bombed over the last two weeks.

Trump's niece grills GOP over 'unhinged' Texas candidate and bleak midterm future

The Republican Party is in for a rude awakening in the Texas elections, irrespective of which candidate they put forward, Mary Trump has claimed.

The president's niece claimed the GOP will fare worse than the Democratic Party candidate at the midterms, whichever way they turn in the primaries. Neither John Cornyn nor Ken Paxton received the required 50% vote in the primaries, meaning a decision on a representative will not be made until May.

'Big problem': Strategist warns Trump's 'Marie Antoinette' style could backfire on GOP

Anyone casually familiar with President Donald Trump knows that he has a particular affinity for the finer things in life, from gold ornamentation to luxury properties. But those gaudy style choices could come back to haunt the GOP during next year's midterms, according to one analyst.

During the 2024 campaign, Trump promised voters that he would fix the economic issues that his predecessor allegedly caused. However, the economy has added few jobs during his first term in office, and inflation remains sticky partly because of the president's tariff regime.

'Enablers find him useful': Trump's niece says power could slip from president at any time

Donald Trump's power base could slip once his enablers get what they want, according to his niece.

Mary Trump, who has written about her personal relationship with the president in the past, believes those in his Cabinet are there merely for their personal gain. Her comments came as Kristi Noem and Gregory Bovino defended Border Patrol actions in the killing of Alex Pretti.
