On Monday afternoon, President Donald Trump announced Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH), a fellow Republican lawyer, as his running mate for the 2024 presidential election. Vance’s working-class background, which he famously wrote about in his award-winning memoir, "Hillbilly Elegy," reinforces Republicans as the party who fights for hard-working families, now, and long into the future.

Yes, President Joe Biden performed shockingly bad in last week’s debate (“shockingly” for those who either hadn’t been paying attention or had only consumed a deliberate coverup by the lying mainstream media for the last four years and had no idea of Biden’s declining health).

But Biden didn’t just lose. 

Former President Donald Trump gave an incredible debate performance and won rather decisively, despite the amount of pretzel-twisting or mental gymnastics it takes some to argue otherwise.

A newly-released poll by Monmouth University reveals former President Trump’s guilty verdict in DA Alvin Bragg’s politically motivated prosecution may have little impact on voters, but expert witnesses in a recent House Judiciary Committee hearing say the trial sets a dangerous precedent that could have far-reaching implications for not only our justice system, but for future elections.

More than half of Americans believe that not enough is being done to prevent election cheating. The other half are likely Democrats who are promoting the very election schemes that are undermining voter confidence! In all seriousness, Republicans have never been more prepared to stop Democrat election dodges than they are now.

While it is tempting to focus on the biases of Manhattan District Attorney (DA) Alvin Bragg and Judge Juan Merchan as the so-called New York hush money case is litigated against former President Donald Trump, the better approach is to follow the facts of the case, and explain why the DA's case is wrong as a matter of law.

On Tuesday, the Colorado Supreme Court handed down an unbelievable ruling removing former President Trump from the Republican primary ballot and consequently denying the state's Republicans the opportunity to decide who they want to represent them in the 2024 presidential election.

Election interference.

This irresponsible ruling will be appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court and our legal team looks forward to helping fight for a victory.

The Republican nominee will be decided by Republican voters, not a partisan state court. https://t.co/TpzY6oULhu

For the first time in history, a former U.S. president has been indicted on criminal charges. This is the culmination of the open political targeting of former President Donald Trump by rogue prosecutor Alvin Bragg. As Cully Stimson and John Malcolm explained, Bragg's legal theory behind the charges is about as good as you'd expect from a prosecutor who's made a name for himself for failing at his job:

During a post-arraignment press conference, Bragg struggled to explain the theory behind the first prosecution of a former president of the United States, stating that Trump “was paying Michael Cohen for fictitious legal services to cover up an actual crime committed the prior year.”

Today, House Democrats and lawyers for former President Trump filed their Trial Memorandum and Answer in the upcoming impeachment trial of former President Trump.  The legal arguments in these documents raise important issues, such as lack of jurisdiction and due process. 

On jurisdiction, former President Trump's lawyers argue in their response:

The Senate of the United States lacks jurisdiction over the 45th President because he holds no public office from which he can be removed rendering the Article of Impeachment moot and a non-justiciable question.

On Wednesday afternoon, President Donald Trump announced that he has pardoned General Michael Flynn. The pardon ends the drawn-out battle between the Department of Justice and District Court Judge Emmet G. Sullivan who refused to dismiss the charges against General Flynn after new evidence was discovered that led to the Department's recommendation to drop the charges.
