FBI Staff Granted Grieving Day For Election Results

 

U.S. — All staff members at the Federal Bureau of Investigation were granted a special "Grieving Day" on Friday so they could take time off to be with their families and mourn the results of the 2024 presidential election.


FBI Director Christopher Wray made the surprise announcement that agents and other staff nationwide would get a three-day weekend after he failed to come in to work himself.


"How could anyone be expected to work during such a tragic time?" Wray said.  "This is [...]

Trump To Declare January 6 A National Holiday

 

[...] "It's the greatest, most beautiful date on the calendar," Trump said in the statement.  "As soon as I take office, we will honor the PATRIOTS and GREAT AMERICANS who demonstrated their loyalty to our AMAZING COUNTRY on JANUARY 6.  These wonderful people are some of our nation's greatest heroes — far greater than the Avengers, I must say."

 

Several prominent Democrats, including Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who died several times during the Jan 6 riot at the Capitol, immediately came forward to protest Trump's plan.  [...]

Federal judge dismisses Jan. 6 case against Donald Trump at request of special counsel Jack Smith

 

WASHINGTON – A federal judge dismissed charges Monday against President-elect Donald Trump for allegedly trying to steal the 2020 election, at the request of Department of Justice special counsel Jack Smith.


U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan agreed to the request and ruled with Trump's lawyers agreeing that "there is no indication that the dismissal is 'part of a scheme of ‘prosecutorial harassment' or otherwise improper."  [...]

Jonathan Turley's verdict.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Trump sentencing:  Curtain to fall on Merchan's Hamlet on the Hudson

 

At 9:30 a.m. on Jan. 10, 2025, the curtain will fall on the longest performance of "Hamlet" in history.  Acting Justice Juan Merchan will finally decide whether "to be or not to be" the judge to sentence Trump to jail.  (Spoiler alert:  He appears set to avoid a jail sentence and likely reversal.)


Since Trump's conviction in May 2024, Merchan has contemplated his sentencing options.  This was to be the orange-jump-suit moment many longed for over years of unrequited lawfare.  They will likely be disappointed.  As some of us noted after the verdict, this type of case would often result in an unconditional discharge or a sentence without jail time.  That prediction became more likely after Trump was reelected in November.  Limits on Trump's freedom or liberty would likely result in a fast reversal, and Merchan knew it.  [...]

Good editorial reasoning.  Read it in full.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Supreme Court should block Judge Merchan's ongoing election interference

 

[...] Juan Merchan, a Democratic Party donor and trial court judge, seeks to divert Mr. Trump's attention from staffing the executive branch, derailing what has been until now a smooth transition.  His honor has ordered the president-elect to participate in a sentencing hearing scheduled for Friday.

 

While the judge signaled his "inclination" is not to jail Mr. Trump, this disruption still matters.  The sole purpose of the proceeding is to consummate the branding of our former and future president as a felon.  This childish objective serves no legitimate purpose.  [...]

Trump sentencing:  A BS conclusion to a BS case

 

[...] So, what happens on Friday?  In his decision rejecting Trump's argument, Merchan laid out some of his thoughts.  He said it was not his "inclination" to sentence Trump to jail, even though he has the authority to do so.  The problem with prison time, Merchan said, was that prosecutors "no longer view [it] as a practicable recommendation."


Instead, Merchan said a sentence of "unconditional discharge" seems to be the "most viable solution" to "ensure finality" of the case.  That would mean that the case would be over, Trump would be an officially convicted felon — good for those Democratic sound bites — and Trump could also begin appealing the verdict, as he has been itching to do.


The question now is whether Merchan will do what he says.  "We only have Merchan's word for it that he will impose [unconditional discharge] on Friday — he could always change his mind," University of California, Berkeley, law professor John Yoo told me in an email exchange.


Yoo noted that Merchan could [...]

Cruel:  Trump Sentenced To Drink Only Diet Pepsi

 

NEW YORK, NY — In a controversial conclusion to the "hush money" trial against him, President-elect Donald Trump was forced to appear in court electronically as presiding Judge Juan Merchan cruelly sentenced him to drink only Diet Pepsi from now on.


The shocking sentence was handed down this morning in a New York courtroom, with audible gasps being heard from the gallery when Judge Merchan informed Trump of his punishment.  The president-elect defiantly voiced his opposition to the sentence immediately afterward.


"This whole trial, like Diet Pepsi, is [...]
