    Trump Scores Legal Victory, Case Against Hillary Clinton Resuscitated – What’s Next?

    A federal appeals court on Friday granted former President Donald Trump more time to file a crucial document in his effort to revive his failed lawsuit against Hillary Clinton.

    The lawsuit, originally filed in March 2022, accuses Clinton, the Democratic National Committee, former FBI Director James Comey and others of rigging the 2016 presidential election. Trump’s legal team claims the defendants engaged in a conspiracy to “discredit, delegitimize and defame” him during his first presidential campaign.

    Trump’s request for additional time was aimed at resuscitating the racketeering (RICO) suit. His legal team also sought to expand their arguments in the case.

    Law & Crime reports:

    Now, in the waning days of his third bid for public office, the underlying lawsuit is long-since dead and gone – dismissed as “frivolous” and “hyperbole” by a district court in Florida in September 2022 – but remains on appellate life support in the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals.

    In a terse order, Trump-appointed U.S. Circuit Judge Kevin C. Newsom gave Trump an opportunity to stretch the process a bit further – and to opine about the issues at stake in the appeal at length.

    “Appellants’ unopposed motion to exceed the word limitation in their consolidated reply brief and to enlarge the time to file that brief is GRANTED,” the judge’s order reads. “The consolidated reply brief, which may not exceed 10,000 words, is due by September 27, 2024.”

    In late August, Trump asked Clinton’s counsel for consent in order to obtain the since-granted extension – citing “pressing hearings occurring in other cases.” The original deadline was Aug. 30. The original word limit, under court rules, was 6,500 words.

    Trump’s lawyers replied a few days later with a detailed request for an extension, which the judge found persuasive.

    “The interests of justice and judicial economy will be served by permitting this extension of time in the context of the multiple consolidated appeals,” Trump’s attorneys wrote. “Appellants’ counsel conferred with Appellees’ counsel regarding the relief sought in this motion and all Appellees oppose this extension request.”

    Following the judge’s decision, Clinton reluctantly agreed to the extension without objection.

    Fetterman Admits Trump’s ‘Special’ Bond With Pennsylvania Growing Post-Assassination Attempt

    Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman (D) acknowledged on Saturday that former President Donald Trump has a unique connection with the state, which he believes only intensified after the attempted assassination in Butler earlier this year.

    Fetterman’s comments came as part of an effort to draw Vice President Kamala Harris’ attention to the dynamics in his must-win state. “I trust her instincts, and she’s got a great team around her. She’s an amazing candidate overall,” Fetterman said, before comparing Harris’ candidacy to that of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. “Secretary Clinton was fantastic, perhaps the most supremely accomplished candidate I can remember. And see what happened.”

    The senator pointed out Trump’s enduring appeal in Pennsylvania, stating, “Trump has created a special kind of hold. He has a special kind of place in Pennsylvania, and I think that only deepened after that first assassination attempt.”

    The Daily Caller looked deeper into the senator’s provocative comments:

    Trump survived the attempted assassination during a July 13 campaign rally in Butler County, Pennsylvania that left him slightly wounded, seriously injured two attendees and took the life of former volunteer fire chief Corey Comperatore. Fetterman said that he wasn’t going to “mansplain” the situation to Vice President Kamala Harris, but noted that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was a “fantastic” presidential candidate in 2016 though she ultimately lost the presidency to Trump.

    “Trump has created a special kind of a hold … he’s remade the party and he has a special kind of place in Pennsylvania,” Fetterman told interviewer Jeffrey Goldberg. “And I think that only deepened after that first assassination attempt.”

    Harris currently leads Trump by 1.0% in a head-to-head matchup in Pennsylvania, according to the RealClearPolling average of polls, with the lead expanding to 2.17% when other candidates, such as Green Party candidate Dr. Jill Stein, independent candidate Cornel West and Libertarian candidate Chase Oliver, are included.

    Fetterman warned elsewhere in his interview with Goldberg that Clinton was leading Trump in Pennsylvania polling during the 2016 race, but lost the crucial swing state to Trump.

    “Everybody thought that it was in the bag, but that’s not the energy and the other kinds of things that were really consistent with what I’m witnessing all across,” he warned. “And then, sadly, we saw what happened.”

    The senator is known for occasionally breaking with his party’s progressive base, particularly on issues like Israel and immigration.

    Court Ruling In Key Swing State Could Impact 98,000 Votes

    Controversy arose in Arizona on Friday as the state’s top court ruled that nearly 98,000 voters whose citizenship documents had not been confirmed can vote in all races.

    The Arizona Supreme Court’s decision came after a “coding oversight” in the state’s election software. Secretary of State Adrian Fontes (D) maintained that “no illegal activity” had occurred.

    The ruling has sparked debate in the critical swing state, with Fox News reporting heightened scrutiny over the potential impact of these votes in the upcoming election:

    The database error called into question the citizenship status of 100,000 registered Arizona voters, affecting individuals who obtained their driver’s licenses before October 1996, and subsequently received duplicates before registering to vote after 2004.

    Fontes and Stephen Richer, the Republican Maricopa County recorder, disagreed on what status the voters should hold following the “coding oversight.”

    “This was discovered not because somebody was voting illegally and not because somebody was attempting to vote illegally, as far as we can tell,” Fontes said at a Tuesday afternoon news conference. “And this was basic voter roll maintenance, and it showed us that there is this issue.”

    Richer filed a special action Tuesday asking the state Supreme Court to settle the question.

    Richer expressed concern over the ruling, stating on X: “It is my position that these registrants have not satisfied Arizona’s documented proof of citizenship law, and therefore can only vote a ‘FED ONLY’ ballot.”

    Arizona’s proof of citizenship law requires voters to provide documentation to participate in local and state elections, adding a layer of complexity to the case.

    Focus Group Of Black Undecided Voters In Georgia Signals Trouble For Harris

    A focus group of Black undecided voters in Georgia has raised concerns for Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris, revealing dissatisfaction with her leadership and the current state of the economy. According to feedback from the group, many believe the economy performed better under former President Donald Trump.

    The focus group, conducted by James Johnson of J.L. Partners for The Daily Mail, highlighted skepticism about Harris’ leadership abilities, with voters labeling her as “weak” and inconsistent. Some notable comments from participants include:

    • “If you look at the statistics now, we’re far worse than we were before. Everything is worse now with Biden and Harris.”
    • “Even though Trump didn’t make all the right choices, the economy just worked better under him. I think it was the overall business mindset that helped.”
    • “She kept saying that she’s a warrior, but I don’t think she is.”
    • “If you put her next to Michelle Obama or Hillary Clinton, it’s like there’s no comparison. They would eat her up.”

    The Daily Mail further reports:

    A new shock poll conducted by the NAACP last week showed that one in four black men under 50 say they’re going to back President Donald Trump.

    Numbers like that should terrify Vice President Kamala Harris‘ campaign – especially as they eye black communities across the county that are critical to winning in 2024.

    Cobb County, Georgia is one of those places.

    President Joe Biden carried Cobb in 2020 by almost ten percentage points.

    These sentiments by the group reflect a potential challenge for Harris, particularly in Georgia, where the latest RealClearPolitics polling average shows Trump leading by 1.7 points.

    Kamala Harris Unveils Baffling Plans In Oprah Town Hall – Word Salad On Steroids

    Vice President Kamala Harris discussed her plan to reduce the cost of living in a town hall hosted by Oprah Winfrey on Thursday. The recently-anointed Democratic nominee stated that she would achieve this by lowering the prices of essential items.

    The question posed to Harris was straightforward enough and, quite frankly, on the minds of most persuadable voters: “What will you do to lower costs?”

    Here’s exactly what she said:

    “Yeah. I first of all, thank you both for being here and yours is a, a story I hear around the country as I travel, and in terms of both rightly, having the right to have aspirations and dreams and ambitions for your family and working hard and finding that the American dream is for this generation and so many recently far more elusive than it’s been, and we need to deal with that. And there are a number of ways. One is bringing down the cost of everyday necessities, including groceries.”

    Yesterday’s Michigan town hall has since been ridiculed by numerous MAGA celebrities.

    As Newsweeek reports:

    During the 90-minute livestreamed interview, where Harris also took questions from the audience, the vice president discussed a number of key 2024 topics, such as abortion rights, immigration and gun violence.

    A number of Donald Trump‘s supporters have mocked Harris for her at times lengthy responses during the event in the key swing state, with some suggesting that the vice president’s answers were a “word salad.”

    During the interview, Harris told Winfrey that Americans are an “optimistic people,” adding: “Americans, by character, are people who have dreams and ambitions and aspirations. We believe in what is possible. We believe in what can be, and we believe in fighting for that.

    “That’s how we came into being because the people before us understood that one of the greatest expressions for the love of our country—one of the greatest expressions of patriotism—is to fight for the ideals of who we are, which includes freedom to make decisions about your own body; freedom to be safe from gun violence; freedom to have access to the ballot box; freedom to be who you are and just be, to love who you love openly and with pride; freedom to just be.”

    Reflecting on the perceived train wreck, politico and MAGA influencer Collin Rugg concluded, “After watching this and then watching the debate, I realize how much practice she had for that debate.”

    “This interview is what Harris sounds like on a normal day.”

    And television appearances as a presidential candidate don’t get friendlier than this…

    Mysterious Eye Injuries Reported By Trump Rallygoers – What’s Behind It?

    Excruciating pain…

    Several attendees of former President Donald Trump’s rally in Tucson, Arizona, on Sept. 12 have reported unexplained eye injuries following the event. According to News 4 Tucson, 20 individuals seated behind Trump, many of them belonging to “Latinos for Trump,” have sought medical attention for symptoms that emerged after the rally.

    Symptoms and ER Visits

    The rallygoers experienced symptoms such as blurry vision, eye swelling and severe pain shortly after the event concluded. Many of those affected reported needing to visit the ER due to excruciating eye pain:

    The News 4 Tucson Investigators spoke exclusively with six people who were seated on stage behind the former president during his rally in Tucson last week. Three of them agreed to on camera interviews.

    One attendee, former Planned Parenthood director turned pro-life activist Mayra Rodriguez, was practically blind by the time News 4 Tucson interviewed her. The symptoms continue to affect the victims several days after the rally.

    The other supporters who did not agree to on camera interviews told us about very similar injuries. One woman who is a local realtor said she had to cancel all her showings over the weekend because she couldn’t see well.

    Sweltering Heat and Unexplained Injuries

    The event occurred during intense 100-degree heat, potentially hazardous conditions for attendees, particularly the elderly and very young. However, the eye problems remain a mystery and unrelated to the extreme heat conditions.

    The Trump campaign has acknowledged the situation and is actively investigating the cause of the unexplained eye issues.

    Secret Service Response

    In response to News 4 Tucson, the Secret Service stated that it was unaware of any injuries. Additionally, they mentioned that there was no indication of any planned threat to Trump or his supporters during the event. According to a spokesperson, nothing out of the ordinary occurred at the rally.

    Trump Campaign’s Commitment

    In response to the developments, a senior Trump campaign advisor said, “We remain committed to the countless patriots that attend our high-energy, high-impact rallies across the country.”

    The investigation into the cause of the mysterious eye injuries is ongoing.

    Harris Campaign Accused Of Using Hacked Trump Campaign Info

    On Wednesday, the FBI and other U.S. intelligence agencies disclosed alarming developments regarding Iran’s alleged interference in the 2024 presidential election. The joint statement, released by the FBI, Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), confirmed that Iranian cyber actors attempted to share stolen information from the Trump campaign with the Biden-Harris campaign.

    The report indicated that Iranian hackers sent unsolicited emails containing nonpublic Trump campaign data to individuals connected to the Biden-Harris campaign in late June and early July. While the agencies found no evidence that the recipients responded to the emails, the incident has sparked concerns about foreign interference in the U.S. election.

    The Biden-Harris campaign condemned the Iranian cyber activity, emphasizing its cooperation with law enforcement since being informed of the phishing attempts. Campaign spokesperson Morgan Finkelstein stated that the emails targeted the personal accounts of staff members rather than official campaign addresses, adding, “We condemn in the strongest terms any effort by foreign actors to interfere in U.S. elections.”

    Meanwhile, the Trump campaign accused Iran of trying to help the Harris-Biden ticket and demanded clarity on whether the stolen material had been used. Trump campaign spokesperson Karoline Leavitt questioned, “What did they know, and when did they know it?”

    The matter has now drawn attention on Capitol Hill, with House Intelligence Committee members weighing in. Rep. Jim Himes (D-Conn.) noted that there was no evidence the Biden campaign responded to the unsolicited emails, while praising Harris and Biden for recognizing that foreign election interference is unacceptable.

    Iran, for its part, has denied any involvement. The Iranian Mission to the United Nations issued a statement rejecting the accusations, calling for the U.S. to provide substantiated evidence.

    This revelation follows reports last month of internal communications from the Trump campaign being hacked, including emails that were allegedly leaked to Politico. The leaked documents included a 271-page dossier on Trump’s running mate, Sen. J.D. Vance, detailing potential vulnerabilities in his political record.

    The developments have intensified concerns regarding foreign influence and interference in the 2024 election, as well as the need for investigations and safeguards to ensure the integrity of the electoral process.

    Teamsters Union Withholds Presidential Endorsement For First Time Since 1996

    After union polling data shows Trump leading decisively among members…

    In a historic decision, the Teamsters’ General Executive Board announced that the union will not be endorsing a presidential candidate in the 2024 election, following a surprising surge in support for former President Donald Trump among its membership. This marks the first time since 1996 that the influential labor union, one of the largest in the U.S., has opted not to back a candidate for the presidency.

    The decision comes after internal polling revealed significant support for Trump, contrasting with the union’s past endorsements of Democratic candidates. The move reflects the diverse political views within the union’s 1.3 million members and its commitment to focusing on issues rather than party lines.

    Earlier Wednesday, the Teamsters released its presidential endorsement polling data following a meeting between Teamsters General President Sean O’Brien and Vice President Kamala Harris. O’Brien emphasized the union’s commitment to a transparent endorsement process driven by its members.

    “We are delivering on that promise to our members,” O’Brien said in a press release Wednesday. “Our final decision around a possible Presidential endorsement will not be made lightly, but you can be sure it will be driven directly by our diverse membership.”

    Polling data shared by the union’s verified X account revealed positive results for the Trump campaign after President Joe Biden decided not to forgo reelection. A town hall straw poll initially showed President Joe Biden edging out Trump, 44.3% to 36.3%, before the incumbent president dropped out of the race. However, more recent electronic member polling, conducted from July 24 through Sept. 15, showed Trump leading with 59.6% of Teamsters’ support compared to Harris’ 34%. Additionally, a research phone poll conducted independently by Lake Research Partners from Sept. 9 to Sept. 15 showed Trump ahead with 58% support compared to Harris’ 31%.

    The polling followed the major party conventions and the Sept. 10 presidential debate, which pundits widely viewed as a win for Harris. Despite her favorable debate reviews, Trump remains the preferred candidate among the overwhelming majority of Teamster respondents.

    O’Brien’s meeting with Harris came at a critical time, as the union had yet to endorse a candidate for the 2024 presidential election.

    Speaking about his conversation with Harris, O’Brien emphasized the union’s focus on issues important to its members and noted the political diversity within the Teamsters. “We don’t just represent registered Democrats. We represent registered Republicans and independents,” he said, adding that Harris acknowledged the union’s political diversity.

    While many unions quickly endorsed the Democratic ticket, the Teamsters held out, with O’Brien making it clear that the union’s endorsement would depend on politicians’ actions rather than their party affiliation.

    Eric Trump Suggests Possibility Of ‘Inside Job’ In Second Assassination Attempt On Donald Trump

    Eric Trump raised concerns about the second assassination attempt on his father, former President Donald Trump, suggesting that it might have been an “inside job” during a Monday interview with Megyn Kelly on SiriusXM’s The Megyn Kelly Show.

    The remarks came after the arrest of Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, who is accused of attempting to assassinate Trump at the Trump International Golf Course in West Palm Beach, Florida. Federal and local authorities confirmed Routh’s apprehension on Sunday.

    When Kelly asked whether the attack could have been an inside job, Eric Trump urged viewers to “entertain everything.”

    “Everybody had better entertain it… twice in five weeks, you better start entertaining all of those scenarios, because something is very, very wrong,” he stated, expressing disbelief at how Routh, armed with an AK-style rifle, crossed a major highway in broad daylight without detection.

    Eric Trump questioned how the alleged gunman was able to breach multiple layers of security and get within close range of his father during the incident. “He literally got across all of that holding a long gun, and no one saw this? There weren’t eyes on the street?” he asked.

    He concluded by emphasizing the need to enhance security measures around the former president, stating, “We better really start locking down this perimeter, because something is awfully wrong… the world knows they are trying to get him.”

    ‘We’ll Take Care of It’: Grassley Reveals Never-Before-Heard Claim From First Trump Assassination Attempt

    Iowa’s senior U.S. senator, Chuck Grassley, has disclosed findings from his office’s investigation into the first assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump during a July 13 rally near Butler, Pennsylvania. Revealing the latest to Fox News, Grassley’s office shared concerning security lapses by the Secret Service, which had assured local law enforcement that it would secure the American Glass Research (AGR) building overlooking Trump’s rally – an assurance that was not fulfilled.

    The building in question was later used by Thomas Matthews Crooks, the would-be assassin who fired eight shots at Trump in under 30 seconds. Three rallygoers were hit, one fatally, and Trump himself was grazed by a bullet that came within an inch of his head. Despite these dangers, no law enforcement personnel were stationed on the roof where Crooks had taken his position.

    “Butler County law enforcement officials stated that at separate times during the walkthrough, when they reiterated their concerns to the agents and counter sniper about securing the AGR complex buildings, the agents responded: ‘we will take care of it,’” Grassley’s office revealed in a Tuesday letter to acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe.

    …

    The Iowa senator questioned Rowe whether the Butler County law enforcement officials’ claim is true and, if so, what the Secret Service did to secure the area with the AGR complex buildings.

    Grassley noted that in the weeks following the first assassination attempt, Rowe told senators during a hearing, “what was communicated is that the locals had a plan and that they had been there before,” in regard to the roof of the AGR building where Crooks took his shots from. 

    Crooks’ final location was only discovered when bystanders noticed him army-crawling toward Trump. A local police officer attempted to access the roof, prompting Crooks to rush his first shot.

    Startling video footage, obtained by Fox News more than two weeks after the incident, showed a figure believed to be Crooks moving across the roof of the AGR building three minutes before the attack. FBI officials later revealed that Crooks accessed the roof by climbing HVAC equipment and piping, moving across multiple rooftops to establish his position about 450 feet from Trump.

    The Secret Service was aware of a potential threat 10 minutes before Trump took the stage but allowed the event to proceed. Additionally, a local law enforcement countersniper had flagged the shooter as suspicious over an hour before the attack due to his use of a rangefinder and his possession of a backpack.

    Grassley’s investigation raises serious questions about the security protocols in place during the rally and the Secret Service’s handling of the potential threat.
