Made before that court are absolute lly preposterous. I want to read you the opinion. 200 years ago, a great jurist of our court established that no citizen, not even the president , is categorically above the common duty to produce evidence when called upon in a criminal proceeding. We reaffirm that principal today and hold that the president is not immune from state criminal subpoenas seeking his private papers, nor entitled to a heightened standard of need. It was a victory. Not a close one. It was a 72 ruling that included also the two trump appointees who voted with the majority. It was not a good day for the president.

Then complaining to reporters that the Supreme Court ruling was a witch hunt and a hoax just like everything is a hoax like the virus was a hoax. Todays ruling has now cleared a path for the new york states attorney to get ei

What are the conditions like where you are . Reporter yeah, hi, over the last hour weve seen the wind gusts start to pick up.
Breathtakingly partisan, barr was defensive lashing out at his democratic questioners, ruminating whether he and trump would accept the results of the election if trump were to lose, and painting the people protesting across the country for black lives matter as some sort of dangerous horde. Even as he refused to condemn armed rightwing antimask mandate protesters and defended the administrations ongoing assault on the rule of law. And of protesters themselves. In the wake of George Floyds death, violent rietters and anarchists have hijacked protest to wreak senseless havoc and destruction on innocent victims. The Current Situation in portland is a telling example. At the start of the heated fivehour hearing, chairman Gerald Nadler asked thetations top Law Enforcement official to do the president s bidding, deploying hundreds of additional federal agents to the city of portland. In connection with your discussions with the president or with other people around them of his Reelection Ca

And as soon as Jonathan Swans interview was made public today, the New Yor
Grilling as Donald Trumps attorney general. The Judiciary Committee battered him with questions under cutting d. O. J. Business and using his power to escalate recent street clashes and racism in the justice system. This is a big day with many different angles to cover. Later well be joined by none other than speaker nancy pelicans live pelicans live nancy pelosi, live. This involves some of the blatant interference bill barr has done to help president trump. To try to spare convicted felons who worked for trump including roger stone and michael flynn.
