B-Man

Attorney General Merrick Garland flanked by Deputy AG Lisa Monaco and FBI Director Chris Wray, gives an update on how the Election Threats Taskforce has "accelerated" its work. Last week, Sec. Mayorkas announced that DHS is working with the FBI and ramping up "with intensity" to respond to "election threats" including "far-right extremist activity" and to combat spreaders of "disinformation." Joe Biden said last week Trump will not accept the results of the election, despite Trump being way ahead in the polls. Joe Biden says simply that "the polling is wrong." As the lawfare continues to backfire, they're laying the groundwork for their next scheme.

The Appearance of Michael Cohen: A Wreck in Search of a Race By Jonathan Turley, May 13, 2024 Michael Cohen is to criminal justice what car crashes are to Nascar: few want to admit it, but he is the perverse draw for the wreck-obsessed. The difference is that Cohen was already a rolling smoking wreck when he pulled up to the track. Even for those of us who have long been critics of this case and its dubious legal theory, it has been surprising to see that the prosecutors had no more evidence than what we previously knew about. The assumption was that no rational prosecutor would base a major criminal case virtually entirely on the testimony of Michael Cohen who was just recently denounced by a judge as a serial perjurer peddling “perverse” theories in court. The calculus of Alvin Bragg is now obvious. He is counting on the jury convicting Trump regardless of the evidence. He believes that all he needs is to check the boxes on the elements of the crime, no matter how unbelievable the vehicle. The reason is that Bragg likely fears a directed verdict more than a jury verdict. After the government closes its evidence, the defense will move for a directed verdict on the basis that the evidence is insufficient to sustain a conviction. In other words, when the prosecution rests this week, Trump’s counsel will stand and ask Merchan to end the case before it is even given to the jury. Many of us agree with that assessment. After three weeks of testimony, there is still confusion on what crime Trump was allegedly seeking to cover up. Bragg has vaguely referred to using the denotation of payments to Daniels as “legal expenses” as a fraud committed to steal the election. However, the election was over when those denotations were made. Moreover, many believe that such a characterization for payments related to a nondisclosure agreement was accurate. (Hillary Clinton’s campaign claimed in the same election that hiding the funding for the Steele dossier as legal expenses was perfectly accurate). Judge Juan Merchan, in my view, has failed repeatedly to protect the rights of the accused in this case. However, he can claim that there was enough alleged to give Bragg the chance to make his case. Thus far he has not done so and, if he is truly neutral, Merchan should grant the motion. Bragg is counting on not only a motivated jury but a motivated judge to keep this anemic case alive. All he hopes that he needs to do is get this to a Trump-loathing jury to set aside any reasonable doubt. To do that, he found the ultimate motivated witness with a record of saying whatever serves his interests and those of his sponsors. https://jonathanturley.org/2024/05/13/the-appearance-of-michael-cohen-a-wreck-in-search-of-a-race/ .

But, but Trump's rally said "sh*t" Kamala Harris Tells Young Asian Leaders to 'Kick That F****** Door Down,' Something She Knows All About Jeff Charles FTA: During the conversation, Harris shared some details about her upbringing and her mother’s participation in the fight for civil rights. She also discussed the pain of breaking barriers and overcoming obstacles. “When you walk in those rooms being the only one that looks like you, the only one with your background, you walk in those rooms chin up shoulders back…you walk in those rooms knowing we are all in that room with you, applauding you on, and expecting certain things from you, including that you will not be silent in those rooms,” she said. Later during her remarks, she noted that “sometimes people will open the door for you and leave it open,” but that “sometimes they won’t.” “Then, you need to kick that f****** door down.” Of course, Harris knows quite a bit about knocking doors down, at least from the secondhand accounts of police officers who busted through people’s doors to arrest them for offenses like consuming a plant, possessing firearms, and even being an anti-abortion activist. In fact, while she was California’s Attorney General, Harris kept law enforcement quite busy snatching folks out of their homes for ridiculous reasons. The marijuana issue, in particular, plagued her during the 2020 campaign. Her opponent Tulsi Gabbard expertly used Harris’ history of aggressive tactics against marijuana users during the Democratic presidential primary debates, essentially ending her campaign. https://redstate.com/jeffc/2024/05/13/kamala-harris-tells-young-asian-leaders-to-kick-that-f-door-down-something-she-knows-all-about-n2174133 .

Gun problem ? Judge Who Worships at the Altar of Leftism Releases Shooting Suspect, Claiming He Poses No Threat By Matt Funicello An 18-year-old man who is suspected of opening fire on a vehicle packed with people in Washington D.C. was released on bond last Friday by a District of Columbia Superior Court magistrate judge, citing that he was not a threat to the public. Judge Lloyd U. Nolan, Jr. ordered that 18-year-old Amonte Moody be released from custody before his trial, even though Moody is suspected of firing over 25 rounds from a semiautomatic rifle at a car with four victims in it. Nolan ordered Moody to be released under house arrest, with an ankle monitor to be worn at all times, even though Moody was allegedly captured on video surveillance running into a street with a rifle and opening fire several times at a vehicle off camera, then sprinting back to a house to hide. He was charged with endangerment with a firearm, possession of a firearm, and assault, which are all felonies. However, the seriousness of the crimes did not sway the judge, as he agreed with Moody's defense team and their arguments that Moody had no prior criminal history and had a family support system already in place. https://redstate.com/mdempsey/2024/05/13/leftist-judge-who-worships-at-the-alter-of-leftism-releases-shooting-suspect-claiming-he-poses-no-threat-n2174129 .

Not surprising in the least. TX Democrat Colin Allred Attended Event Where Illegal Aliens Were Taught How To Evade Authorities: Report. Rep. Colin Allred (D-TX), who is running against Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) as the Democrat Party’s U.S. Senate nominee, reportedly attended an event where information was given out on how illegal aliens can evade capture by law enforcement. https://www.dailywire.com/news/democrat-colin-allred-attended-event-where-illegal-aliens-were-taught-how-to-evade-authorities-report “Think of the Democratic Party as what it really is: a criminal organization masquerading as a political party,” Michael Walsh likes to say. Somebody appears to be taking that meme far too literally. .

Biden's Mother's Day Messages Reeked of Desperation, Projection and Shamelessness

Incompetent. Blinken Trashed Israel on the Eve of Memorial Day KAREN TOWNSEND It's a tough call to determine who is worse about stabbing Israel in the back. Is it President Biden or is it Secretary of State Antony Blinken? I think it's a toss-up. Both are the kind of two-faced friends that are detrimental to Israel's war to survive - they say one thing in public and another in private. Recently, Biden has become more bold in his bare-knuckle attack on America's only loyal ally in the region. As warped as Biden's rhetoric has become, Blinken is not any better. https://hotair.com/karen-townsend/2024/05/13/blinken-trashed-israel-on-the-eve-of-memorial-day-n3788275 .

The Fall of the House of Presidential Persecutions What will be the endgame of all these attacks on the American legal system and the warping of it for blatant political purposes? By Victor Davis Hanson May 13, 2024 None of the five civil and criminal cases currently lodged against former President Donald Trump have ever had merit. They were all predicated on using the law to injure his re-election candidacy—given a widespread derangement syndrome among the left and a fear they cannot entrust a Trump/Biden election to the people. These criminal and civil trials are merely the continuation of extra-legal efforts of the last eight years to destroy a presidential candidate in lieu of opposing him in transparent elections. As such, the current lawfare joins the Mueller investigation of the Russian-collusion hoax. It is a continuation of the laptop disinformation caper and the “51 intelligence authorities” who lied about its Russian origins. It logically follows from the two impeachments, the Senate trial of Trump as a private citizen, and states’ efforts to remove him from their ballots. The E. Jean Carroll case, the Alvin Bragg, Letitia James, and Fani Willis local and state trials, and the Smith federal indictment share various embarrassments. Suspension of statutes of limitations: Carroll and Bragg could only go to court through the legal gymnastics of enlisting sympathetic judges and legislators to change or amend the law to suspend the statute of limitations as a veritable bill of attainder to go after Trump.
