Hillary Clinton addresses viral Obama-Clinton meme.
"Michelle Obama was giving this incredible speech. She got to 'and of course you received a Nobel Peace Prize'. I burst in a laughter. He started to giggle. I poked him in the back and said 'I'm sure Trump is watching this. He thinks he is now in the third circle of hell'. He goes 'Yeah, I hope he is'.
Looks like federal judge Emmet Sullivan is going to permit a publicly-accessible phone line through which we can listen to Thursday’s hearing in the federal legal challenge by Katie Phang against Todd Blanche, for Blanche’s mishandling of the Epstein case files.
Gov. @AndyBeshearKY: Rand Paul is trying to hold Anthony Fauci in contempt when he actually showed up in person and made a verbal statement. But Rand Paul won't call on Mitch McConnell who has also been fully absent to even do a video for people to show he's okay. So 85-year-old Fauci should be held in contempt and jailed, but 84-year-old Mitch McConnell gets a complete pass after not showing up to work for 7 weeks?
Wolf: What hasn’t been discussed publicly, to my knowledge, is the fact that, in my opinion, President Trump committed a crime in negotiating the settlement agreement in this case and it’s possible that Mr. Blanche would be found to be a co-conspirator in that crime. Let me try to explain…
Congress enacted a statute that makes it illegal for the president or the vice president to directly or indirectly request the initiation or termination of a tax investigation. There’s a potential five-year prison term for violating that statute.
Donald Trump would not have immunity from criminal prosecution for violating that statute in this case because he filed this lawsuit in his personal capacity. Therefore, negotiating the settlement was not an official act for which he has immunity as president.
So, in this case, he was negotiating essentially with himself. As Judge Williams said in Trump v. IRS—a case in which I’m one of the 35 plaintiffs who, through excellent lawyers, persuaded the court to reopen the case and find that this was not a genuine case—it wasn’t a real case or controversy that was legitimately in federal court. It was a collusive case brought for an improper purpose: to get a personal benefit for President Trump, his family, and his allies.

A vote for Todd Blanche is a vote in favor of pedophilia.

'When we're able to get in front of people and actually go through some of this and explain the details, it's compelling information and people are often moved by these facts.'
