Rudy Giuliani reportedly seeks pardon from Donald Trump

President Donald Trump's longtime personal defense attorney, Rudy Giuliani, talked to the president about receiving a preemptive pardon before Trump leaves office, The New York Times reported on Tuesday.

The Times, citing two people told of the discussion, reported that Giuliani broached the possibility with Trump as recently as last week, and it wasn't the first time the topic was raised.

Giuliani is currently the focus of a criminal investigation by the Manhattan US attorney's office over whether he violated foreign lobbying laws through his work in Ukraine. Specifically, federal prosecutors are said to be examining Giuliani's business dealings in Ukraine as well as his involvement in the firing of Marie Yovanovitch, the US's former ambassador to Ukraine.

Giuliani's lawyer, Robert Costello, told The Times, "He's not concerned about this investigation, because he didn't do anything wrong and that's been our position from Day 1."

Adewale Adeyemo nominated as Biden's Deputy Treasury Secretary

https://www.politico.com/news/2020/11/29/biden-economic-transition-team-441227

After facing criticism for the lack of diversity in his first round of hires, President-elect Joe Biden plans to announce three people of color for leading positions on his economic team.

According to two people close to Biden’s presidential transition, he is expected to name Cecilia Rouse, an African American economist at Princeton University, to lead the Council of Economic Advisers.

Adewale “Wally” Adeyemo, a Nigerian-born attorney and former senior international economic adviser during the Obama administration, will serve as deputy Treasury secretary under former Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen, who Biden plans to appoint to lead the Treasury Department.

Adeyemo has less of a public profile, but is well known within Democratic policy circles. He served in top roles at the Treasury Department, before being named deputy national security adviser for international economic affairs and deputy director of the NEC under Obama in 2015. Adeyemo then went on to become the first president of the Obama Foundation, the former president’s non-profit organization.

Trump says his election challenges probably won't make it to the Supreme Court

President Donald Trump acknowledged his vanishing path to overturning the results of the 2020 election in court on Sunday during his first full interview since losing to President-elect Joe Biden earlier this month.

“Well, the problem is, it’s hard to get into the Supreme Court,” Trump said on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures,” after host Maria Bartiromo asked him when he expected his challenges to make it to the justices.

“I’ve got the best Supreme Court advocates, lawyers, that want to argue the case, if it gets there. They said, ‘It’s very hard to get a case up there,’” Trump added. “Can you imagine, Donald Trump, president of the United States, files a case, and I probably can’t get a case.”
Trump said that his cases, which legal experts have described as far-fetched, should make it to the high court, but did not predict that they would.

“It sounds like if you can’t be heard by the Supreme Court, you lose. Do you believe you will win this?” Bartiromo asked at one point.
“We should be heard by the Supreme Court. Something has to be able to get up there, otherwise, what is the Supreme Court?” Trump said. Asked if he still had a path to victory, Trump said he hoped so.

Trump has refused to concede although NBC News and every other major outlet has called the race for Biden. Biden is projected to win 306 Electoral College votes, well above the 270 needed to win.

The president’s assessment on Sunday was more downcast than public statements from his legal team, and seemed to suggest that he is inching closer to acknowledging his loss, if not offering a concession.

On Thursday, Trump said for the first time that he will leave the White House if the Electoral College votes for the Democrat. Electors will cast their ballots on Dec. 14. Trump did not say on Sunday when he might relinquish his challenges.

The president and his campaign have pressed courts around the country to delay the certification of election results, arguing baselessly that the contest was marred by widespread fraud.

Those suits have been rejected by nearly every judge to review them. More than two dozen cases filed by Republican interests challenging voting and counting processes have been denied, dismissed, or withdrawn, according to an NBC News tally.

Many of the cases have been filed in Pennsylvania, a state that Biden flipped. On Friday, a federal appeals court based in Philadelphia rejected a Trump campaign challenge in a scathing opinion that found that the “claims have no merit.”

The president’s legal advisor Jenna Ellis subsequently put out a statement on Twitter that she attributed to herself and Rudy Giuliani, another member of the president’s legal team, pledging to go “On to SCOTUS!”

The president spent the bulk of Sunday’s interview, which lasted approximately 45 minutes, falsely claiming that the 2020 election was fraudulent.

It takes the votes of four of the nine justices of the Supreme Court to agree to hear a case, and a majority to issue a decision.

Three of the justices on the court were appointed to the bench by Trump, though justices do not always rule in favor of the president who appointed them. Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh, both Trump appointees, have sided against the president in the past.
Ahead of the election, Trump had predicted that the race would ultimately be decided by the Supreme Court, and pushed to get Justice Amy Coney Barrett confirmed to the bench ahead of time. Democrats pressed for Barrett to recuse herself from any disputes related to the race, though she declined to commit herself to doing so.

The Supreme Court weighed in on a contested presidential election in the 2000 case Bush v. Gore, though the results of the race were much closer that year.

While Trump has yet to formally concede, his administration began providing Biden with transition resources last week as required by law.

Trump’s Already Gaming Out a 2024 Run—Including an Event During Biden’s Inauguration

Trump’s Already Gaming Out a 2024 Run—Including an Event During Biden’s Inauguration

He’s not yet conceded 2020 but is already looking at keeping Republicans in line and making Biden’s life miserable.

In the twilight of his presidency, Donald Trump is discussing different ways to disrupt the impending Joe Biden era, chief among them by announcing another run against him.

According to three people familiar with the conversations, the president, who refuses to acknowledge he lost the 2020 election as he clearly did, has not just talked to close advisers and confidants about a potential 2024 run to reclaim the White House but about the specifics of a campaign launch. The conversations have explored, among other things, how Trump could best time his announcement so as to keep the Republican Party behind him for the next four years. Two of these knowledgeable sources said the president has, in the past two weeks, even floated the idea of doing a 2024-related event during Biden’s inauguration week, possibly on Inauguration Day, if his legal effort to steal the 2020 election ultimately fails.https://www.thedailybeast.com/trumps-already-gaming-out-a-2024-run-including-an-event-during-bidens-inauguration?ref=scroll

Dapcity007:
President Trump was getting flack from Republicans - So he relented and allowed the transition process to “start”.

Hopefully this will give Republicans cover to actually hold out on certifying results in some states or stopping the process until all legal avenues for litigation has been finished.

You have to ask yourself

What’s the Rush to “King” Boe Jiden?

Why is the media in such a rush?

Why is Biden and Democrats in such a rush?

Why is Dominion refusing to sit down with PA congressional members to show Confidence in their system?

Why is President Trump so calm?



Don’t get confused.

We are not losing! We are being challenged by a very corrupt system! It doesn’t mean we’re losing! He who laughs last laughs longer! Here is a question for you and the Democrats out there: how come neither Joe Biden nor Harris have come out to face the public and present evidence that the election was fair?!

I’ll tell why: because they are LIARS! Their ability to cheat and lie won’t sustain such a confrontation! Justice will prevail!

This is what happens when we allow radicals to run around and destroying our country for many months. Now they believe that they can threaten lives of people and pets as well. This is a fight against evil and for our freedom.

The Supreme Court will give President Trump reelection by December 8th which will show the corruption of our election process! The conservative Supreme Court Justices will not forget the ridicule & insults they received from the Democrat politicians when they were nominated. They will never allow a pack Court which Biden said he would do to eliminate the power of their judgements.

For your information...

Don’t get it twisted, the lower Supreme Court of EACH states have denied the claims.. BUT its the UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT that hasn't ruled out anything... those Judges are the most important judges to these cases.... these judges WILL uphold the constitution of the United States ��
---The U.S. Supreme Court will not entertain or rule on any electoral lawsuits this side of 2020---

---The judges of respective State Supreme Courts have ruled against Rudy Giuliani and Trump Campaign because they have repeatedly failed to provide any evidence--- In any court of law you have to prove your allegation---making an accusation without proof will get your case dismissed--- When Trump and the GOP campaign discovered that due to covid-19, mail-in ballots were in large volumes and assumed they were primarily democrats ---they immediately attempted to cast doubt on their legality---Their premise on receiving a win was based on the in-person voting past totals which they assumed were mostly Republicans---hence the false claims of mail-in voters fraud---Election Boards across the nation have certified the elections as void of the fraud that is been implied---In about 2 weeks time lawsuits with no facts will be be history---the Electoral College will cast their votes and Biden-Harris will be sworn in on Jan. 20, 2021---

Bluebyrd:
General Flynn devoted his life to the service of his nation, His innovations in the use of intelligence operational planning saved untold U.S. lives in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere.

Flynn was targeted by evil people in the FBI for deliberate entrapment by means of an interview which they used to manufacture a case against him just because he couldn't recall certain events exactly the way they happened. They used that as a ruse to create a lie to rope him into a guilty plea hoping to break him down and make him turn against president Trump but the man stood like a rock so the corrupt and vindictive evil swamp operatives vowed to destroy him.

Even when the prosecution decided to drop all cases against him, a biased judge that was specially selected by the swamp decided to play prosecutor in a case he was sitting over. For the first time in American history, a judge decided to become both prosecutor and judge when prosecutors decided they are pulling out and dropping all charges.

Thanks to President Trump, this great American General Flynn is now a free man and Hopefully, Americans will never again witness this kind of shameful abuse of police and judicial powers shown by the FBI, members of the Mueller team and the disgraceful Judge Sullivan.

God bless General Flynn, God bless President Trump and God bless America.
---General Michael T. Flynn is a symptom of Trump's incompetence and corruption---Trump was personally warned by President Obama that Flynn was compromised---Instead of cutting Flynn loose, Trump decided to hire him as National Security Advisor because he campaigned for him---Flynn was actually fired by the White House because he lied to Pence and the WH staff along with the FBI ---Flynn was so corrupt and treasonous that he was secretly being paid by Turkey to lobby Trump to hand over Gulen, Erdogan's political enemy who lives in PA---Flynn was also doing lobbying for Russia which was in business with Turkey---It is clear that Trump was in the middle of this, likely getting a cut from the Russians who have been financing his businesses for years. It is all so seedy and corrupt---In other words, so much for Trump and Republican---party of law and order---

---This is egg on Trump’s face because that’s admitting guilt---now Michael Flynn lost his 5th amendment right and will have to testify when asked---If he lies again he’ll end up in the same position he was in---accepting a pardon is admission of guilt---
