What goes around, comes around. The Democrats have behaved disgracefully throughout Donald Trump’s first term and are trying to steal November’s election. Nothing symbolised the Democratic Party’s contempt for pluralism and the US Constitution more than the deeply personal attacks on Justice Brett Kavanaugh during his confirmation hearings in 2018.

In response to a request for an injunction by the U.S. Department of Justice, a federal judge issued a ruling late Friday night blocking the implementation of a law passed by the Seattle City Council last month that was set to go in force this weekend that prohibits police from using most non-lethal crowd control tools. With violent protests by Antifa and Black Lives Matter activists planned for this weekend, Police Chief Carmen Best issued a letter to businesses and residents warning that she would not allow her officers to protect property without the means to defend themselves from rioters. Police […]
A federal judge has overturned a Seattle ordinance that prohibited police from using crowd control weapons. The last-minute decision comes hours after the city’s police chief said the force would be powerless to stop mob violence. US District Judge James Robart blocked the ban, which was put in place by the Seattle City Council, during an emergency hearing on Friday night. The Seattle ordinance, which was set to go into effect this weekend, would have prevented police from using pepper spray, blast balls, and other crowd control weapons. The temporary restraining order on the legislation was made after the US Department […]
A judge has issued a temporary restraining order on federal agents deployed in Portland, ruling that they may not arrest, disperse or otherwise use force against reporters and legal observers covering ongoing protests there. US District Court Judge Michael Simon ruled on Thursday that federal police must stop “arresting, threatening to arrest, or using physical force” on journalists and legal observers not suspected of a crime, following an injunction request from the Portland Mercury newspaper and the ACLU. “Plaintiffs have been covering or observing the protests and they all have documented incidents of violence, threats, or intimidation by federal agents,” Simon said, […]
A judge ruled Thursday that Michael Cohen will be released Friday to home confinement, declaring that the government acted in a “retaliatory” manner by taking President Donald Trump’s former personal attorney into custody this month. “The purpose of transferring Mr. Cohen from furlough and home confinement to jail is retaliatory and its retaliatory because of his desire to exercise his first amendment rights to publish a book and discuss anything about the book or anything else he wants on social media and others,” Judge Alvin Hellerstein ruled during a telephonic hearing. Cohen, who was sent home in May amid coronavirus fears, […]

In a screed against cancer doctors, “men’s rights” attorney Roy Den Hollander saved some venom for a particular woman judge. “All of this was a nice stressful addition since it occurred in the middle of preparing for oral argument in a federal case before a lazy and incompetent Latina judge appointed by Obama,” he wrote. Den Hollander did not name the judge, but he might as well have, for he says the proceedings were held on Dec. 4, 2018. That is the date that he had a 90-minute hearing in Newark federal court before Judge Esther Salas. Source link

A federal New York judge has thrown out a proposed $18.9 million settlement between convicted rapist and former movie producer Harvey Weinstein, and several women. U.S. District Judge Alvin Hellerstein said the offer failed to adequately compensate many of the victims who allege they were sexually assaulted or raped by Weinstein. He also faulted the money included in the settlement that would help pay Weinstein’s legal bills. In a telephone hearing, Hellerstein said it was unfair to include women who’d merely met Weinstein with those making more grievous charges, Reuters reported. “Not every woman was captured in the same way,” Hellerstein […]

Roger Stone is going to prison after a kangaroo court overseen by Judge Amy Berman Jackson convicted him of bogus crimes in a criminal case that was a fraud (the Trump – Russia collusion case). Not surprisingly the Mueller gang asked for Judge Jackson to oversee his case. The corrupt Muller gang knew that President Trump had no connections to Russia when they joined the Mueller Special Counsel. These gangsters wanted to see President Trump attempt to obstruct the fraudulent investigation in order to have him removed from office. Fortunately for America, President Trump never committed any crimes and AG Barr […]
