citizen trump. the idea that an american president returns to being an ordinary citizen just like everyone else after they leave office is as fundamental to the concept of america as the bill of rights. we re a nation with no king. and therefore, even the president of the united states is just a citizen. no more, nor less. and as such, they are held to the same laws and provided with the same defenses that you and i get. that is what the three-judge panel on the d.c. circuit court of appeals unanimously ruled today in its crushing legal takedown that counter to trump s stated arguments, presidents do not have complete and absolute immunity from criminal prosecution. and thus, trump must face trial for his alleged attempts to overturn the 2020 election. in their ruling they reminded trump what the supreme court has already declared, quote, no man in this country is so high that he is above the law. no officer of the law may set that law at defiance with impunity. all of the of
that president biden retained and disclosed classified materials from his time as vice president. the justice department declined to bring charges in part because, quote, at trial mr. biden would likely present himself to a jury as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with an important memory. president biden addressed those remarks in a rare primetime press conference. president biden: i am a well-meaning elderly man, i know what i m doing. i am the president, i put this country back on its feet. neil: dan heninger and kyle peterson, what do you make of this report? at least the decision not to prosecute and the reasons for it? dan:this is an exercise in prosecutorial discretion, that trump was indicted primarily for lying or misleading the fbi and instructing others to. that is a crime. whether keeping classified documents is a crime, or one that has been prosecuted, is a different question. that is included in the indictment of

That makes 138 billion that he has directly or indirectly provided in Student Loan Relief. Some people are crying foul that no less than the Supreme Court has put the kiabash on this and hes keep doing it. Now to peter doocy at the white house and how theyre explaining this. Officials here are hoping an emphasis on Climate Change and gun control and student forgiveness put people in line. A fourpoint edge for biden over trump. That is even though trump is seen as having better physical fitness for biden and Mental Fitness for office than biden. The president joked to donors about this in california. He said, by the way, im only 40 years old times two. The only thing i do know is that i may not run like i used to, but i tell you what, ive been around long enough to know whats going on.

When you see my work, you can easily link the concepts, lets say, or the technique, anything from them, as inspiring. I think thats rather wonderful. Im in istanbul, that great, entrancing, ancient megalopolis, once the capital of the byzantine and ottoman empires. Lying on either side of the bosporus strait, its a city that straddles two continents, europe and asia, so it feels like the Perfect Place to discover for myself the long, still evolving story of Cultural Exchange between east and west.
