Obtuse, Thy Name is Chutkan

In one of the most disingenuously undefined judicial rulings in recent memory, U.S. District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan says President Trump may not “target” a member of the court or prosecution in his rebuke of their official offices against him. [3-page pdf HERE]

[SOURCE]

Obviously, Judge Chutkan intends to give herself the most latitude possible when defining what terms of speech may end up being considered “targeting.” However, criticism is not a possible definition in ordinary parlance. So, we’ll see.

Additionally, Chutkan did not outline what -if any- punishment would be levied in the event she considers any statement to be considered “targeting.” The lawfare games continue…

Beyond Orwell – DC Judge Rules President Trump is Not Permitted to Criticize Trial, Judge, Witnesses or Prosecution

Good luck with this effort!  That’s my thoughts.

Yes, DC Judge Tanya Chutkan can decree from her perch that President Donald Trump is not permitted to criticize his persecution, the court, the witnesses who will testify against him or the political prosecution that is targeting the leading 2024 presidential candidate, but executing that decree is another kettle of fish entirely.

It is one thing to decree your control over independent speech, it is another thing entirely to try and enforce that decree.  Thankfully, and standing firm in his position, President Trump said in response he is “willing to go to jail, if that’s what it takes for our country to win and become a democracy again.”

(Washington DC) – […] Trump, who opted to campaign in Iowa rather than attend the hearing Monday, has also in recent weeks pointedly attacked several known witnesses in the case. He suggested that one of them, retired Gen. Mark Milley, would have warranted the death penalty in another era, and he repeatedly blasted another, former Attorney General Bill Barr.

Acknowledging Trump’s broad right to weigh in on public policy issues as he pursues a second term in the White House, Chutkan said nevertheless that Trump could not launch a “pretrial smear campaign” against those who might testify against him. She said she would consider “sanctions” if she observes any violations. She did not elaborate on those sanctions, although she said she planned to issue a written order with further details.

The pronouncement raises the prospect that Trump could face punishment — ranging from restrictions on his use of social media all the way up to potential pretrial incarceration — if he continues to mount public attacks on Smith and his team or witnesses likely to testify in his March trial.

Any restrictions against President Trump’s ability to defend himself from political prosecution can be appealed and let the Supreme Court of the United States go on record for or against the rights of the accused.

Tucker Carlson Explains Why MAGA Will Never Relent – Not Now, Not Tomorrow, Not Ever

Louisiana Republican Jeff Landry Wins Governor Race, Returns State to Republican Control

Interestingly, and perhaps likely because of President Trump’s endorsement of Jeff Landry, the Republican Governor’s Association (RGA) did not support Landry in the Louisiana governor’s race.  Just another small but interesting datapoint that will be missed in this story.

As we have previously mentioned, the RGA, just like the RNC, is a captured institution now under the full control of the multinational donors.

Despite the lack of RGA support, Louisiana Republican Jeff Landry has won the governor’s race with more than 50% of the vote and will become the next governor.

(Politico) – […] Landry, the state attorney general, emerged from a crowded, all-party field to win the seat with 52 percent of the vote when The Associated Press called the race with 95 of the estimated vote counted. He will succeed term-limited Democratic Gov. John Bel Edwards.

Landry emerged from a field that included a number of notable Republicans, including state Treasurer John Schroder and Stephen Waguespack, a former executive at the Louisiana Association of Business and Industry and one-time aide to former GOP Gov. Bobby Jindal. There was one big-name Democrat in the race: Shawn Wilson, who previously served in Edwards’ administration as transportation secretary and had 25 percent of the vote when the AP called the race.

Landry was able to quickly coalesce GOP support in the race. He was endorsed by former President Donald Trump, the state Republican Party and House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, among others.

By receiving more than 50 percent of the vote, Landry, who is also a former member of Congress, avoids a November runoff. Most expected Landry and Wilson to advance to that contest, making Landry’s outright win on Saturday an even bigger surprise — and potentially an early marker of Republican voters’ enthusiasm heading into 2024.

Flashback – President Trump’s Prescient Speech Against Terrorism and Extremism from the 2017 Arab Islamic American Summit – Video and Transcript

Against the backdrop of current events, it is worthwhile revisiting the speech President Donald Trump gave in 2017 from Riyad, Saudi Arabia. This speech led to the longest timeline of peace in the Arab world and was the foundation of the historic Abraham Accords.

Within the speech, President Trump provides a clarity that none in the audience had heard before. After this speech, all of the nations attending began a process to isolate the terrorists and confront the financiers (Qatar). WATCH (Transcript Below):

[TRANSCRIPT] I want to thank King Salman for his extraordinary words, and the magnificent Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for hosting today’s summit. I am honored to be received by such gracious hosts. I have always heard about the splendor of your country and the kindness of your citizens, but words do not do justice to the grandeur of this remarkable place and the incredible hospitality you have shown us from the moment we arrived.

You also hosted me in the treasured home of King Abdulaziz, the founder of the Kingdom who united your great people. Working alongside another beloved leader – American President Franklin Roosevelt – King Abdulaziz began the enduring partnership between our two countries. King Salman: your father would be so proud to see that you are continuing his legacy – and just as he opened the first chapter in our partnership, today we begin a new chapter that will bring lasting benefits to our citizens.

Team DeSantis and Team Haley Pitch Themselves to the Never Trump Billionaires During Donor Strategy Meeting in Texas

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis says he can beat Trump 😂….  Nikki Haley says, no, DeSantis is a diminishing meatball now; only her neocon curriculum vitae is strong enough to go against Godzilla Trump.  Team DeSantis scoffs… Team Haley sneers….  Can you imagine being a billionaire stupid enough to subject themselves to this nonsense?

The R.A.T coalition (Republicans Against Trump) is so desperate, they held a strategy session with DeSantis and Haley to decide which one of them would carry the banner of most approved & purchased candidate.   And the candidates each thought this was a good thing.  😂🤣😂 I just do not understand this level of goofy dissonance.

(TEXAS) – Top officials with Gov. Ron DeSantis’ campaign made the case to a gathering of top donors opposed to Donald Trump on Friday that rival GOP candidate Nikki Haley could not defeat the former president in a head-to-head matchup.

[…] In another presentation made to the same group, Haley’s team argued the opposite. DeSantis’ campaign had flatlined, they insisted, pointing to data that showed that the former UN ambassador was ascendent and, therefore, the logical choice for the anti-Trump crowd.

Haley’s team, according to a person familiar with the arguments they made, pointed to public and private polling that showed her ahead of DeSantis in key early voting states. They also noted that Haley’s campaign has more cash on hand than DeSantis, who is leaning heavily on an allied super PAC to pick up much of the tab.

“By every metric,” the person said, “Nikki is moving up and Ron is moving down. It IS a two-person race: one man and one woman.”

When It Comes to U.S. Intelligence Community Claims, ie. Egypt Warning Israel, Apply Strong Cynicism

Apparently, some people have forgotten that American citizens are in an abusive relationship with our government.  A government that has demonstrably lied repeatedly and used the official institutions of the U.S. intelligence apparatus to do so [See reference of 50 former intel officials claiming Biden laptop was Russian disinformation].

So, allow me to walk through the process of the story attributed most recently to House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Mike McCaul, as relayed to him by DNI Avril Haines, an Obama operative inside the Biden administration, and broadcast to media.

McCaul claims the US Intelligence Community know that Egypt warned Israel of the pending Hamas attack.  Everything about this is sketchy in the extreme.  Senior Egyptian Intelligence officials state, without qualification, that such a warning never happened {link}, and Bibi Netanyahu has said it was fake news {link}.  I believe President Fattah Abdel al-Sisi and Prime Minister Netanyahu – here’s why.

First, don’t forget the geopolitical motives to disparage and diminish Egypt after they recently joined the BRICS economic alliance.

Second, don’t forget that following Obama and Clinton’s ill-fated attempt to install a Muslim Brotherhood leader in Egypt, Mohammed Morsi, General al-Sisi was forced to stop the Islamist Spring in Egypt.  That put Sisi on the opposite side of Obama, and years of manipulative disparagement ensued.   However, Sisi put his commitment to eradicating extremism -like Hamas- into action, not mere words {GO DEEP}.

In 2014, Sisi began destroying Hamas tunnels into Gaza from the Sinai region of Egypt.  {link} This was not a small task, as it was discovered that one-third of all buildings in the region contained tunnels into Gaza that were being used by Hamas terrorists. {link}  At the time, we called them al-Qaeda and ISIS, but they are all various factions of the extremist sentiment espoused by the Muslim Brotherhood.  Sisi kicked the Brotherhood out of Egypt {link}.  They fled to Qatar.

In retaliation, in early 2015 Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood put a fatwah on al-Sisi and called for Jihad against Egypt {link}. Against the backdrop of the first border opening between Egypt’s northern Sinai and Gaza, and against the ongoing efforts by the al-Sisi led coalition to move toward peace between Arabs and Israelis, the extremists strike back in 2017 with a horrific terrorist attack against the Al Rawdah mosque in Bir al-Abed, west of El Arish, the main city in North Sinai. 235 people were killed and hundreds more wounded {link}

Remarkable – President Trump Recounts How Netanyahu Backed Out on Joint Operation to Target Soleimani

When President Donald Trump goes full wolverine, he doesn’t stop until the bones are bleaching in the sun. Oh my. This is a remarkable public evisceration of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for pulling out of a military operation at the last minute.

At his rally in West Palm Beach, former President Trump recounted how Israeli PM Benjamin “let us down” for not being part of the strike on Iranian general Qasem Soleimani, but then tried to “take credit” for the operation. WATCH:
