Judge Aileen Cannon granted Donald Trump’s motion to pause his classified documents case in Florida following the Supreme Court’s presidential immunity ruling. “Trump’s lawyers on Friday asked the judge overseeing his classified documents case to delay the proceedings and reconsider two motions to dismiss the case in light of this week’s immunity ruling,” ABC News stated. “Judge Cannon just granted Trump’s motion to pause some deadlines in FLA doc case to consider SCOTUS’ immunity opinion and potential impact on the case. Trump’s lawyers filed the motion yesterday,” Julie Kelly wrote. The motion, filed by Trump’s legal team, reads: “President Donald J. Trump respectfully submits this motion for (I) leave to file supplemental briefing regarding the implications of Trump v. United States for the pending Presidential-immunity motion, ECF No. 324; and (2) a partial stay of further proceedings-with the exception of the pending gag-order motion, ECF No. 592-until President Trump’s motions based on Presidential immunity and the Appointments and Appropriations Clauses are resolved.” BREAKING: Judge Cannon just granted Trump's motion to pause some deadlines in FLA doc case to consider SCOTUS' immunity opinion and potential impact on the case.

Trump already has pending motion to dismiss case based on unlawful appointment of special counsel. It was debated at a hearing last month,” Kelly wrote. “Trump again raises Biden’s inappropriate remarks after SCOTUS opinion as proof the White House in interfering in the case. Trump also accuses DOJ of recently leaking info to media–something Judge Cannon admonished special counsel about when she appointed a special master in 9/22. I don’t think she will be too happy about this,” she added. Trump again raises Biden's inappropriate remarks after SCOTUS opinion as proof the White House in interfering in the case.

Trump’s lawyers argued that the Supreme Court’s ruling “guts the [special counsel’s] position that President Trump has ‘no immunity’ and further demonstrates the politically-motivated nature of their contention that the motion is ‘frivolous.'” Defense lawyers wrote that they plan to file a separate motion about the implications of the immunity decision, including limits on evidence related to official acts that prosecutors could be precluded from using at trial. Trump’s attorneys also asked to renew another motion claiming that special counsel Jack Smith was unconstitutionally appointed, and asked Cannon to delay the case until those motions are resolved. “The Court should resolve the threshold questions identified in Trump relating to Presidential immunity and the Appointments Clause, as well as the related issues presented in the Appropriations Clause motion, prior to addressing the other numerous problems with this case,” Trump’s lawyers wrote. “Pending deadlines that are stayed relate to CIPA litigation and expert disclosures for trial. (Not gag order motion) Cannon set a briefing schedule on immunity matter thru this month. Very likely she’ll set a hearing sometime in August,” Kelly wrote. “We are still waiting for the hearing on scope of prosecution motion—originally set for last month but delayed due to other more urgent motions. My guess is that hearing will be indefinitely postponed until immunity question is resolved, which is unfortunate bc it addresses collusion btw Biden WH, NARA, and DOJ to concoct a docs case against Trump dating back to spring 2021,” she added.

Resolution of these threshold questions is necessary to minimize the adverse consequences to the institution of the Presidency arising from this unconstitutional investigation and prosecution. A partial stay is also appropriate to prevent further exploitation of judicial institutions and resources by Executive Branch personnel in connection with the shameful ongoing lawfare campaign.”

Per FOX 6 Milwaukee: Who will be former President Donald Trump’s running mate? There’s a good chance we won’t find out until the Republican Party is in Milwaukee for the 2024 Republican National Convention. But that’s not when, and how, the rounding out of the ticket typically happens. At least not in recent history. For the last nearly four decades, each party’s presidential ticket, Republican and Democrat, has been a done deal by the time the political conventions start. There are no more surprises; no more guessing games. “There’s kind of different reasons for that,” said Julia Azari, Professor of Political Science at Marquette University. The ticket is sealed and ready to be united around. But not in 2024. “It’s really unusual to do this,” said Mordecai Lee, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Professor Emeritus. Trump, a candidate known for his theatrics and “not like the rest of them” attitude, aims to stray from what has become the norm.

Joe Biden made numerous appearances this week to try to recoup his reputation as a mildly senile president instead of how he really is – so much worse. He’s even gotten a sudden orange tan, which led people to call him Orange Man Joe. He has been bombing, even on radio shows. This is despite […] The post Orange Man Joe Had Questions in Advance for Radio Shows appeared first on www.independentsentinel.com.

Democrats in Congress are signaling that a growing number of their colleagues will publicly call on President Joe Biden to drop out of the 2024 race after his first TV interview following a poor debate performance failed to reassure them. Axios published a report on Saturday that cited unnamed lawmakers saying the handful of House Democrats who had already come forward urging Biden to end his bid would soon have company. “The drip drip is about to be more than that,” one anonymous lawmaker told the news outlet. A second lawmaker said, “We’ll certainly amp up the public pressure as needed.” The report also featured quotes from an unnamed House Democrat saying, “No one’s mind has been changed,” as well as, “a growing number of lawmakers agree “it’s time” for Biden to step aside and are “hoping to give him space to do this on his own.” A different House Democrat said Biden’s interview Friday on ABC News was “not impressive.” This unnamed lawmaker also predicted that Biden is “toast” in November if he stays in the race against former President Donald Trump. Yet another House Democrat claimed to be “shocked” at Biden’s “refusal to recognize reality” in terms of polling and his “failure to make an argument about why he wants a second term,” per the report from Axios. Biden, who spoke to “This Week” anchor and former Clinton flack George Stephanopoulos, insisted the only way he will end his re-election campaign is “if the Lord Almighty comes down and tells” him to quit. He also argued that polls showing him down in the race are off the mark. While some in Congress have been defending Biden, four House Democrats had publicly called on Biden to put an end to his campaign heading into Saturday. They included: Reps. Lloyd Doggett (D-TX), Raúl Grijalva (D-AZ), Seth Moulton (D-MA), and Mike Quigley (D-IL). Rep. Angie Craig (D-MN), the first hailing from a battleground state, joined them with the release of a statement on Saturday. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP “Given what I saw and heard from the President during last week’s debate in Atlanta, coupled with the lack of a forceful response from the President himself following that debate, I do not believe that the President can effectively campaign and win against Donald Trump,” she said. Declaring there was “simply too much at stake to risk a second Donald Trump presidency,” Craig added that she “respectfully” called on Biden to “step aside as the Democratic nominee for a second term as President and allow for a new generation of leaders to step forward.”

A top Democrat megadonor said on Friday that she is continuing to back President Joe Biden amid calls by some in the party to have him removed from the top of the ticket. Billionaire real estate heiress Amy Goldman Fowler, who is one of the party’s largest donors, told The New York Times: “I continue to support President Biden’s re-election effort and I am making my maximum contribution to his campaign today.” Goldman Fowler has given $27 million to Democrats over the course of her life and said she plans to give another $400,000 to Biden’s re-election effort. “You probably have not heard of Amy Goldman Fowler, but she is a *way* bigger donor than people you have heard of,” said New York Times reporter Teddy Schleifer. “A lot of ink gets spilled in this business on mega-donors who are more bark than bite. This one is the precise opposite.” Scoop: One of the Democratic Party’s single biggest donors BACKS Joe Biden in a rare statement.

Biden conducted an interview with ABC News on Friday that earned him mixed reviews from people who were looking for him to prove that his debate performance was just a fluke. While many of them conceded that his performance was a step up from how he looked in the debate, they said that it was not enough to ease concerns that many in the party have about his cognitive abilities moving forward.
