Trump News

During an appearance on Fox News on Sunday, House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan (R-OH) boasted to host Maria Bartiromo that his Republicans have damning evidence that will once and for all lead to the impeachment of President Joe Biden.

However, as MSNBC's Steve Benen pointed out, Jordan was trying to pull a fast one on Fox viewers by touting information that was debunked in the middle of last year.

In his election interference case against Donald Trump, special counsel Jack Smith is trying to show how the former president responded when the U.S. Capitol Building was under attack on January 6, 2021. Smith, according to ABC News, has uncovered new details about that response — details that ABC News' Jonathan Karl discussed during a Monday appearance on MSNBC's "Morning Joe."

Karl told conservative host Joe Scarborough, "These are really the defining hours of the Trump presidency: what Trump was doing in the White House while the attack was underway. We've heard from Liz Cheney; we've heard from others. But now, what the special counsel has done is they've methodically gone through and spoken to everybody who was with Trump during that time — people that refused to talk to the January 6 Committee, like Dan Scavino, perhaps Trump's closest aide in the White House."

Responding to a blustery announcement from Donald Trump that he will be making an appearance at the U.S. Court of Appeals for a Tuesday hearing on his presidential immunity appeal, one former prosecutor warned the former president that he is on thin ice.

Just after midnight Monday, Trump took to his Truth Social platform to announce, "I will be attending the the (sic) Federal Appeals Court Arguments on Presidential Immunity in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday. Of course I was entitled, as President of the United States and Commander in Chief, to Immunity. I wasn’t campaigning, the Election was long over. I was looking for voter fraud, and finding it, which is my obligation to do, and otherwise running running (sic) our Country."

Donald Trump filed motion after motion on Monday urging a Georgia judge to dismiss the election interference case against him.

In the first motion to Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee, Trump argued that he had presidential immunity when he allegedly conspired to organize an alternate slate of electors to overturn the 2020 election.

Former President Donald Trump asked a court on Monday to dismiss Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis' case against him by claiming "absolute immunity" for any actions he took as part of his official duties as president.

Michael Anthony Kreis, a law professor at the Georgia State University College of Law, examined Trump's filing — and quickly concluded it wasn't worth the paper it was written on.

Attorney George Conway has penned a lengthy piece for The Atlantic in which he takes President Donald Trump's lawyers to task for their arguments in favor of keeping him on Colorado's Republican primary ballot.

In particular, he noted that Trump's petition to the United States Supreme Court about his ballot eligibility "didn’t conform with the ordinary rules and practices" and instead asks what he describes as "a Cuisinart of a question" -- namely, "Did the Colorado Supreme Court err in ordering President Trump excluded from the 2024 presidential primary ballot?"

Attorneys for former President Donald Trump argued that a Georgia election interference case should be dismissed because he has "absolute immunity" from prosecution.

In an expected 67-page motion, Trump asked Fulton County Judge Scott McAfee to dismiss the case against him. Trump is accused of participating in a conspiracy to overturn the 2020 presidential election.

Donald Trump is facing a big week in court, but he faces a "steep uphill climb" in his effort to escape prosecution in the Washington, D.C., election subversion case, according to an expert.

The former president has asked an appeals court to grant him broad immunity in that case and others, arguing that he was acting in his official capacity as president when he sought to overturn his 2020 election loss.

Cryptocurrency could have a savior in Donald Trump if he's elected in 2024, Politico reported.

Even though he's been critical of crypto in the past, Trump could adopt a policy that's more friendly to regulatory proposals that have been drafted by GOP lawmakers and which are favorable to the currency.

Donald Trump is planning to take an 18th-century law meant to target wartime aggressors and use it to embark on a massive program of deportations, insiders in his camp have revealed.

The three sources told Rolling Stone his camp is developing “legally dubious justifications” to use the Alien Enemies Act against undocumented immigrants.

Reacting to concerns that a Donald Trump presidential immunity bid being heard in the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia on Tuesday could derail the trial of the former president in Fulton County, Georgia, one legal expert claims he doesn't see that happening.

According to a report from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, all eyes are on the court this week as the three-judge panel will rule on an appeal from the former president that he can't be tried in Judge Tanya Chutkan's courtroom for his actions related to the Jan. 6 storming of the U.S. Capitol.

With that in mind, Norm Eisen, former ethics czar under President Barack Obama observed, "There can be no more important legal question this year or any year."

According to the AJC, Fulton County DA Fani Willis has claimed her office has looked into the immunity issue and she stated, "I think we’re in a good place.”

In an interview, Eisen agreed.
