This is going to be another fun one. It does not get enough attention but the racism of Trump and his treasonous conservative/America Hating/Republicans just glared like the sun in their attempted coup because if we look at all the placesthey claimed massive voter fraud they were all majority black districts.

And talk about sweet irony of who gets the case. I bet Trump shits his Depends over this one too.

A lawsuit claiming that Donald Trump, his campaign and the Republican National Committee attempted to disenfranchise Black voters during the 2020 election has been reassigned to Judge Tanya Chutkan, the same U.S. District Court judge presiding over the former president's federal election interference case in Washington, D.C. The suit, brought by the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, accuses the Trump campaign and the RNC of violating the Voting Rights Act in their efforts to overturn his electoral defeat.

According to Democracy Docket, the civil case was reassigned to Chutkan earlier this month on Oct. 6. "On Nov. 28, 2022, a trial court issued an order that allowed the plaintiffs to amend their complaint and held that Trump is not absolutely immune," Democracy Docket said in a release following the announcement of the case. "Trump appealed the Nov. 28 order to the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit. Litigation is ongoing." The report of the reassignment marks the latest chapter in Trump's ongoing scuffle with the judge, who imposed a partial gag order on the former president Monday in his federal criminal case. The order bars Trump from "publicly targeting" Chutkan's staff, special counsel Jack Smith's or his staff, and any other court personnel. It also bans him making inflammatory statements about those individual's families and potential witnesses in the case.

Revealed: The massive caveat in Trump’s newly certified personal financial disclosure

More than two months after filing a federally required financial report, former President Donald Trump got approval Tuesday from the U.S. Office of Government Ethics — with a notable caveat.

“OGE notes that several of the assets on this report are the subject of dispute in the case of New York v. Donald Trump, et al.,” said an unusual notation on Trump’s public financial disclosure report, which was certified Tuesday by Shelley K. Finlayson, acting director, chief of staff and program counsel for the Office of Government Ethics.

“However, the time period at issue in that case does not appear to overlap with the reporting period of this report. OGE does not independently verify the value of the reported assets. In certifying this report, OGE relied on the valuation of assets reported by the filer,” the Office of Government Ethics’ notation reads.


After being granted two extensions to file the report required of all presidential candidates, Trump filed his report on Aug. 9.

In it, Trump revealed thousands of assets, such as investments as much as $5 million in defense contractors Qualcomm and Boeing — and liabilities, such as nine mortgages in the $5 million to more than $50 million range.

The report also showed that Trump maintains massive real estate holdings and is keeping up trademarks on his name around the world, including in Russia, China and other United States enemy countries, Raw Story reported. He also received a quarter-million dollars from LGBTQ+ group, the Log Cabin Republicans, for a speaking engagement.

Trump, the front-runner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, is facing 91 felony charges across four federal cases.

Additionally, in the New York civil case referenced by Office of Government Ethics, a New York judge ruled on Sept. 26 that Trump committed fraud by inflating the value of his assets by as much as $2.2 billion, and in turn, secured more favorable loans and insurance deals, The New York Times reported.

A trial to determine the severity of penalties against Trump started Oct. 2 and is ongoing. The former president has been personally attending some of the proceedings. An adverse ruling against Trump, who has denied wrongdoing, could lead to him losing significant parts of his business empire and corresponding fortune.

Trump claims he's releasing 2020 election fraud 'numbers that will make your head spin'

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump claimed that he has new evidence that the 2020 presidential election was stolen, and he's releasing it "next week."

At a campaign stop in New Hampshire on Monday, Trump was asked if he was worried about losing attorney-client privilege with co-defendant Sidney Powell after he claimed she was never his lawyer.



"No, not at all," the former president replied. "We did nothing wrong. We did nothing wrong. This is all Biden. Indictments and impeachments. This is all about Biden. He can't do anything right."

"But when you look at the kind of thing, think of it because I protested an election," he added. "And I'm, by the way, 100% right about that."

Trump then revealed his upcoming plans.

"In fact, we're going to be releasing some numbers next week that will make your head spin," he said. "But think of that. You get indicted because you protested an election."

This could be a real mess with a lot riding on it because its going to force the Supreme Court to make the call. Most likely since Trump managed to appoint a treasonous conservative/America Hating/Republican super majority the Cur will rule in Trump's favor. But if they don't it will establish the law against insurrectionists holding office which would be a death blow to the treasonous conservative/America Hating/Republicans who participated in the attempted coup and armed violent deadly insurrection.




What to know about the 14th Amendment Trump disqualification trial in Colorado

A trial to determine whether the 14th Amendment’s “insurrectionist ban” applies to former President

is set to begin Monday in Denver, a historic but likely long-shot case that could block him from Colorado’s presidential ballot in 2024.

Six Republican and unaffiliated Colorado voters filed the lawsuit in early September with the backing of a liberal watchdog group called Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, or CREW. They’re arguing that Trump is disqualified from serving as president again because of his role in the January 6, 2021, insurrection.

The challengers have scored a series of pretrial victories, defying expectations by defeating several motions by Trump and the Colorado GOP to throw out the case.


The bench trial in Colorado District Court is scheduled to last at least one week. Trump is not expected to attend. He denies wrongdoing regarding January 6, and his campaign said the challengers are “stretching the law beyond recognition.”

“It’s the first domino to fall. We’ve never seen a challenge like this to a presidential candidate, hearings that go for days to evaluate their eligibility,” said Derek Muller, an election law expert at Notre Dame Law School who filed a brief in a similar case that was neutral on disqualifying Trump but gave analysis for key legal questions.

“It’s not a frivolous lawsuit, but it’s not a slam dunk,” Muller added.

What does the 14th Amendment say?
The 14th Amendment, which was ratified after the Civil War, says US officials who take an oath to uphold the Constitution are disqualified from holding future office if they “engaged in insurrection” or have “given aid or comfort” to insurrectionists.

However, the Constitution does not spell out how to enforce the ban, and it has been applied only twice since the 1800s, when it was used against former Confederates.

The amendment’s key provision, Section 3, says in part: “No person shall … hold any office … under the United States … who, having previously taken an oath … to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.”

What is the trial about?
The challengers sued Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold. They want a court order blocking Griswold from putting Trump’s name on Colorado’s GOP primary ballot and the general election ballot. Griswold, a Democrat, hasn’t taken a position on whether Trump is disqualified and said she’ll do what the judge orders her to do.

Colorado Judge Sarah Wallace had spelled out some of the key questions for trial.

• What is the definition of “engaged” and “insurrection”?
• Did Trump engage in an insurrection?
• Is the so-called insurrectionist ban self-executing, or does Congress need to take action before a candidate is disqualified?
• Does Griswold have the power under Colorado law to exclude a candidate from the ballot based on federal constitutional considerations?
• Does the ban apply to US presidents, or only to other officials?

How is Trump fighting back?
Trump has ridiculed the lawsuit at his campaign rallies. His lawyers and advisers have argued that it would be “un-American” to deprive voters the opportunity to decide whether the former president should return to the White House by removing him from the ballot.

In his attempts to throw out the lawsuit, Trump unsuccessfully argued that the case misinterpreted Colorado’s ballot access laws, that the lawsuit raised a “political question” that only Congress could decide and that it violated his free-speech rights.

“This is a political lawsuit meant to prevent President Trump from standing for election and to block Colorado voters from having the opportunity to vote for him,” Trump’s lawyers wrote in a court filing last week.

They added, “Colorado statute provides no basis for barring a presidential candidate under the Fourteenth Amendment. And President Trump never advocated for or incited violence on January 6, 2021.”

Why is this happening now?
CREW filed the lawsuit in September, asking for an expedited process to resolve the dispute before Colorado’s GOP primary on March 5, which is Super Tuesday.

Wallace has said she hopes to issue a ruling by Thanksgiving, so appeals courts in Colorado have enough time to review the matter and hand down their own decision.

Griswold has said there is a “hard deadline” of January 5 for a resolution in the case. Her office is required by that date to certify the names of all candidates that will be printed on the March 5 primary ballot.

What’s the big picture?
This is one of several lawsuits in battleground states to remove Trump from the ballot. Other advocacy groups have filed challenges in Minnesota and Michigan.

While the groups behind the lawsuits are liberal-leaning, many of the plaintiffs are Republicans. The lead plaintiff in Colorado is Norma Anderson, a Republican former state legislator who served as majority leader in the both the Colorado House and Senate.

A growing number of constitutional scholars have endorsed the challengers’ theory against Trump, including some notable conservative jurists and legal experts.

But serious divides remain how the 14th Amendment could be applied to Trump and how the ban would even be implemented, whether by election officials, Congress or a court, given the constitutional ambiguities. Many expect the Supreme Court – with its conservative supermajority – will ultimately weigh in on the matter.

Has this happened before?
There hasn’t been a case like this in history, though no US president has ever tried to overturn an election, like Trump did. It would be unprecedented to apply the 14th Amendment “insurrectionist ban” to any presidential candidate, let alone the clear front-runner for a major party nomination, as Trump is leading in the GOP polls.

The ban has been applied only once in the modern era – and CREW was behind that successful effort.

A convicted January 6 rioter who was also a New Mexico county commissioner was removed from office last year on 14th Amendment grounds through a different but related legal mechanism, after CREW filed a lawsuit.

In that case, the official had already been convicted of a January 6-related offense. Trump is facing state and federal charges related to the Capitol riot and his attempts to overturn the 2020 election – but he pleaded not guilty and hasn’t gone to trial yet.

Who is the Colorado judge?
Wallace was appointed to the bench last year by Colorado Gov. Jared Polis, a Democrat. He said Wallace would fill a vacancy opening in January of this year.

Previously, she was a partner at the large law firm Ballard Spahr, where she specialized in commercial litigation, breach-of-contract matters and employment law.

She graduated from the University of Colorado Law School in 1999.

They are so lacking in confidence for their man, Biden (and rightfully so) that they will do whatever it takes to beat Trump in other ways.
Keep him off the ballot.
Convict him of a serious felony and try to disqualify him from even holding the office.
They will even spew unproven allegations and then base those allegations as the reason to remove Trump from even running.
Whatever it takes. Even despicable crimes.

 

What a load of Trumptard spew! A sitting president who actively tries to overturn a free and fair election . Should never be allowed to hold office again. But it just goes to show how fall the GOP has fallen. When a would be dictator is their choice overwhelming choice for President.

Be proud repukes, be proud of yourselves.

 

Nikki Haley for President!

 

And this is going to be interesting. The 14th amendment is very that it bars insurrectionists from holding office. And there is no doubt Trump attempted a coup and incited an armed violent deadly insurrection. So can it be applied to Trump. And everyone who has looked at it said its only something the Supreme Court can decide. But there has be a court case first. And it looks like Colorado may be headed for just such a case.



Trump suffers first loss as 14th Amendment court case starts in Colorado

Donald Trump suffered a minor loss in the first minutes of a trial considering a lawsuit seeking to keep him off the Colorado ballot.

A weeklong hearing got underway Monday in the case, and Judge Sarah B. Wallace immediately rejected a Trump motion that she recuse herself because she made a $100 donation to the liberal group Colorado Turnout Project last year, saying she did not recall the donation until the motion was filed and that she had no preconceptions about the case, reported the Associated Press.

“I will not allow this legal proceeding to turn into a circus,” Wallace said.

Dozens of challenges citing Section Three of the 14th Amendment have been filed across the country in recent months, but the Colorado lawsuit and a similar case in Minnesota seem the most significant to legal experts because they were filed by liberal groups with substantial resources and each of those states have clear, swift processes for challenging ballot qualifications.

POLL: Should Trump be allowed to run for office?

“Four years after taking an oath to ‘preserve, protect and defend’ the Constitution as President of the United States ... Trump tried to overthrow the results of the 2020 election, leading to a violent insurrection at the United States Capitol to stop the lawful transfer of power to his successor,” alleges the Colorado lawsuit, which was filed on behalf of Republican and unaffiliated voters by the liberal group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington.

“By instigating this unprecedented assault on the American constitutional order," the suit adds, "Trump violated his oath and disqualified himself under the Fourteenth Amendment from holding public office, including the Office of the President.”

The rulings in both cases will likely be appealed right away and could wind up in front of the U.S. Supreme Court, which has never ruled on the Civil War-era provision prohibiting those who have sworn an oath to uphold the Constitution and then “engaged in insurrection” from holding higher office.

“We've had hearings with presidential candidates debating their eligibility before — Barack Obama, Ted Cruz, John McCain,” said Derek T. Muller, a Notre Dame law professor. “Those legal questions are very heavy ones."

Shooter is thinking if the despicables insist on trying to beat Trump out of the oval office in court, the deplorables will beat biden out of the oval office using the 25th.

That suits Shooter. Neither Trump or Biden will be on the ballot for 2024.

The deplorables have options when that happens. Lots of them.
The despicables still have their heads buried in the ................... sand .................... and have no options.

 

Typical trumptard spew. Biden already thumped Trump in 2020. And that was before Trump's big lie. Trump tried to overturn a free and fair election. Only a fascist would try that. Trump should be disqualified based on his election fraud lies alone.

The sad part is that repukes still support Der fuhrer.

 

would a fascist take guns from the innocent?

 

A fascist like Trump would try to subvert democracy.

 

and an ignorant un trust worthy would avoid a question

 

So NiceKalven Give us a single case where Trump proved his 2020 voter fraud allegations.

Well?

 

he has not yet, your turn now

 

Who's trying to take guns away from the innocent?

 

: points at democrat cities and specifically california and any dip shit democrat that does not know what an assault rifle is :

WHILE AT THE SAME FUCKING TIME DEFUNDING POLICE AND WANTING TO ABOLISH PRISONS AND STAY SOFT ON CRIME OR GET EVEN FUCKING SOFTER ON CRIME

 

Again who is trying to take guns away from "the innocent"

All silty wants to do is suck you into a meaningless pit to play her version of chess.

Florida crime trending down while California skyrockets explained by one key difference: expert (msn.com)

Florida crime trending down while California skyrockets explained by one key difference: expert
Story by Emma Colton • 9h

California’s spiking violent-crime rate can be attributed to liberal district attorneys in big cities who promote a "culture of lawlessness," while Florida's "law and order" policies have yielded lower crime, according to one crime control policy expert.

"If [California] had law and order DAs, if you had a governor of California - like previous governors, including Reagan - who were pro-law enforcement, pro-law and order, and were hammering [DAs] George Gascon and Chesa Boudin and Pamela Price campaigning for law and order DA candidates, you wouldn't have the disparity between Florida and California in terms of crime rates," Heritage Senior Legal Fellow Cully Stimson told Fox News Digital in a phone interview this week.

The FBI released its annual national crime data this month, which analyzed 2022’s crime trends, and found violent incidents decreased by 1.7% last year when compared to 2021. Violent crimes are defined as incidents such as rape, robberies, armed assault and homicide.

Murders and non-negligent manslaughter, specifically, dropped 6.1% last year, while rape incidents decreased by 5.4%. The national violent crime stats for 2022 are only a fraction of a percent higher than 2019 data, showing a return to pre-pandemic crime levels.

For California and Florida, however, the violent crime stats wildly differ from both each other and national trends, which Stimson attributed to state policies and leaders.

Violent crimes for the state of Florida fell by nearly 32% in 2022 compared to 2019, and by 23% when compared to 2021 data. California saw violent crimes spike by 13% last year compared to 2019, and by 3.8% when compared to 2021 data.

The FBI switched to a new recording program at the start of January 2021, called the National Incident-Based Reporting System. The new reporting method was rolled out to provide a more thorough snapshot of offenses, such as what weapons were used in an incident, types of property stolen and more detailed demographic information on victims and perpetrators of crimes.

Data from 2021 was largely seen as incomplete, as only 62.7% of law enforcement departments nationwide sent reports of crime data to the FBI. The data for 2022 shows a more complete view of crime issues, with more than 83% of police departments reporting stats, which covers 93.5% of U.S. the population.

"Crime, especially violent crime, is demographically and geographically concentrated in the inner cities. That's just a fact," Stimson said. "… But to get a real sense of what's happening in a state, you have to look what's happening in your big cities in those states."

Stimson is one of the authors behind the Heritage Foundation’s report titled, "The Blue City Murder Problem," which pushed back against the Democratic narrative that America has a "red state murder problem." The study, published last year, detailed that out of America’s top 30 cities with spiraling homicide rates, 27 were led by Democratic mayors and "at least 14 Soros-backed or Soros-inspired rogue prosecutors."

California made the list three times - Los Angeles, Oakland and San Francisco - for having sky-high homicide rates. Florida made one appearance on the list, with Jacksonville showing a homicide rate of 6.8 per 100,000 people, as of June of that year.

"There were 2,554 homicides in those 30 cities through June 2022. In the 14 cities with Soros-backed rogue prosecutors, there were 1,752 homicides, representing 68 percent of homicides in the 30 top homicide cities in the United States," the report found.

Los Angeles DA Gascon was backed by liberal billionaire George Soros, as well as San Francisco’s previous DA Boudin, who was recalled from office in June of last year over his soft-on-crime policies.

On the flip-side, Stimson explained, Florida has promoted law and order policies through Gov. Ron DeSantis and prosecutors.

"When you look at the crime rates in big cities in Florida and you see that unlike California, the Florida constitution empowers the governor to remove elected officials who are not fulfilling their fiduciary duties. DeSantis [got] rid of Andrew Warren and Monique Worrell, two DAs in two separate counties because they're not doing their job" he said.

DeSantis suspended Hillsborough County State Attorney Andrew Warren in August of last year after the Tampa-area prosecutor declined to enforce several state laws, including the state’s 15-week abortion ban. He then suspended State Attorney Monique Worrell in August of this year for "neglecting her duty to faithfully prosecute crime," according to the governor’s press release. Both had previously received backing from Soros.

"You can see why these trends are going in opposite directions," Stimson said of comparing California to Florida. "The DA is the gatekeeper to the criminal justice system … So it's important to give credit to the governors, where they create a culture of lawfulness across the state, or a culture of lawlessness."

DeSantis has notably also publicly repeated his support for police amid 2020’s calls to defund police departments that spilled into the following years. Stimson said there is no clear study showing DeSantis’ support has aided efforts to combat crime but that such comments can help bolster the culture of law and order.

"When the chief executive of a state, or country for that matter, not only creates a culture of law and order, but then backs it up by backing local law enforcement, it permeates the residents of the state, and it really forces the local DAs in the counties to do their job."

Both Gov. Gavin Newsom's office and Gascon's office pushed back that Florida's crime data only was incomplete, as only 48% of law enforcement jurisdictions reported crime data to the FBI last year. Some 98% of California police jurisdictions reported crime data to the FBI last year.

"You cannot compare the state of California with the state of Florida. California is a massive state with many District Attorneys Office. Some counties have conservative prosecutors while others have progressive prosecutors," a spokesperson for Gascon's office told Fox News Digital.

"We are a progressive prosecutors office. The Orange County DA is a Conservative. LA County saw a 8% increase in violent crime in 2022 when compared to 2019. Orange County saw a 32% increase in violent crime in 2022 compared to 2019. LA County saw a 5% increase in violent crime in 2022 compared to 2021. Orange County saw a 10% increase in violent crime in 2022 compared to 2021," the spokesperson added.

Gascon's spokesperson said that crime across the country increased in 2020 in jurisdictions with both "conservative prosecutors and jurisdictions with progressive prosecutors," and that by trying to draw a "correlation using dubious data Is irresponsible."

The governor's office added that "a person has a 126% higher chance of being murdered in Jacksonville" than San Francisco, while Gascon's spokesperson said "violent crime in Los Angeles has declined 6% compared to last year and homicides have decreased 18%."

DeSantis and Newsom are set to debate each other next month on Fox News, when the pair will likely discuss top voter concerns such as crime and the economy.
