What country will be the primary beneficiary from a "Billionaires Tax," or Wealth Tax? Where will wealthy people and companies move to, leaving the United States high and dry? Most don't need to be in the U.S. anyway. I know all of those very smartly run countries, and they are all thrilled by what the Radical Left maniacs are doing in Congress. I just wonder, will I be allowed to run for president again if I move to another country? No, I guess I'll just stick it out, but most others won't!

ICYMI: “Did Jake Sullivan commit perjury? Emails reveal ‘lie’ on Trump”

Did Jake Sullivan commit perjury? Emails reveal ‘lie’ on Trump
Jake Sullivan, national security adviser in the Biden administration, may be guilty of perjury related to the Hillary Clinton campaign’s dirty tricks against Donald Trump.
Last week, Michael A. Sussmann, a partner at Perkins Coie, a law firm representing the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee, was indicted by a federal grand jury on charges of making false statements to the FBI about his clients and their motives behind planting the rumor, at the highest levels of the FBI, of a secret Trump-Russia server.
The indictment states that Sussmann, as well as the cyber experts recruited for the operation, “coordinated with representatives and agents of the Clinton campaign with regard to the data and written materials that Sussmann gave to the FBI and the media.”
One of those campaign agents was Sullivan, according to emails that special counsel John Durham obtained. On Sept. 15, 2016 — just four days before Sussmann handed off the materials to the FBI — Marc Elias, Sussmann’s law partner and fellow Democratic Party operative, “exchanged emails with the Clinton campaign’s foreign policy adviser concerning the Russian bank allegations,” as well as with other top campaign officials, the indictment states.
Sources close to the case confirmed the “foreign policy adviser” referenced by title is Sullivan.
They say Sullivan was briefed on the development of the opposition-research materials — which tried to allege that a “secret” server of the Trump organization was communicating with Russia’s Alfa Bank. The conspiracy theory, pushed by opposition firm Fusion GPS, was later dismissed, as the “communication” was likely marketing emails.
Yet Sullivan maintained in congressional testimony in December 2017 that he didn’t know of Fusion’s involvement in the Alfa Bank opposition research. In the same closed-door testimony before the House Intelligence Committee, he also denied knowing anything about Fusion in 2016 or who was conducting the opposition research for the campaign.
“Marc [Elias] … would occasionally give us updates on the opposition research they were conducting, but I didn’t know what the nature of that effort was — inside effort, outside effort, who was funding it, who was doing it, anything like that,” Sullivan stated under oath.
Sullivan also testified he didn’t know that Perkins Coie, the law firm where Elias and Sussmann were partners, was working for the Clinton campaign until October 2017, when it was reported in the media as part of stories revealing the campaign’s contract with Fusion, which also produced the so-called Steele dossier.
Sullivan maintained he didn’t even know that the politically prominent Elias worked for Perkins Coie, a well-known Democratic law firm. Major media stories from 2016 routinely identified Elias as “general counsel for the Clinton campaign” and a “partner at Perkins Coie.”
“To be honest with you, Marc wears a tremendous number of hats, so I wasn’t sure who he was representing,” Sullivan testified. “I sort of thought he was, you know, just talking to us as, you know, a fellow traveler in this — in this campaign effort.”
Although he acknowledged knowing Elias and his partner were marshaling opposition researchers for a campaign project targeting Trump, Sullivan insisted, “They didn’t do something with it.”
In truth, they used the research to instigate a full-blown investigation at the FBI and seed a number of stories in the Washington media, which Elias discussed in emails.
In fact, on the eve of the election, Sullivan put out a written campaign statement that claimed Trump and the Russians had set up a “secret hotline” through Alfa Bank and he suggested “federal authorities” were investigating “this direct connection between Trump and Russia.” He portrayed the shocking discovery as the work of independent experts — “computer scientists” — without disclosing their attachment to the Clinton campaign.
“This could be the most direct link yet between Donald Trump and Moscow,” Sullivan said.
Lying to Congress is a felony. Though the offense is rarely prosecuted, former special counsel Robert Mueller won convictions of two of Trump’s associates on charges of that very offense.
An attorney for Sullivan did not respond to questions, while a spokeswoman for the National Security Council declined comment.

[Forwarded from Patriot - Doug Logan (D L)]
Many of you don't know this, but because of the work we've done in Maricopa we've been sued a number of times. Specifically, these lawsuit(s) have attempted to classify Cyber Ninjas as a "public entity" so that I am subject to public records requests (also known as "right to know" or "freedom of information act" requests).
Specifically, these request(s) have demanded all communications I have with everyone including a roster of every person involved in the audit, and all details on audit financing.
I have nothing to hide and have chosen to disclose financial details once; and I will do so again as soon as I have time to finish the project financials. However, disclosing communications including a roster of people have much larger implications and set a precedent I can't let exist.
The 1st amendment grants us the right to freedom of speech and freedom of assembly. The Fourth and Fourteenth Amendments protect us against government seizures of private documents and property. These rights have routinely been found in the courts to further give the right to be associated with whoever you want to be associated with. It is a fundamental liberty of a free society. Yet, cancel culture attacks this very fundamental right.
The seeking of private communications from a private company is a violation of these rights. The seeking of a roster of people who worked on the audit I can't see utilized for any other purpose than to again violate those rights. And we believe the law is clear that only documents which the government creates or owns are considered public records—but the government does not own my company’s documents and did not create them, so they are not public record. For these reasons, amongst others, I am fighting these lawsuits in court. If I lose this could mean that ANYONE who does ANY business with the government can be required to give up their communications at any time. We've already seen with the federal vaccine mandate for federal contractors how many people that really impacts.
So, what can you do about it?
1) Please pray for the situation. Pray that our Country would return to the foundation on which it was built. Pray that these judges would see clearly what is in front of them; and would choose what is right. Pray that our nation would turn from its broken ways, humble itself, and pray to God.
2) Please consider politely and nicely making your voices heard with these organizations letting them know you do not support their actions. I do not condone any type of rude or threatening behavior. Follow Proverbs 25:21 and win them over from your niceness. You may even consider sending them a public records request to make the point.
The plaintiffs on the lawsuit against me are:
Phoenix Newspapers, Inc (which owns the Arizona Republic and is owned by Gannet Co, owner of USA Today and newspapers across the country)
The plaintiffs in a lawsuit against the Senate is a group called American Oversight.
3) If you agree with what we're doing and want to help me stick this out as long as I can; please consider making a donation to the Arizona Audit. This can still be done at either Voices and Votes or Defending The Republic. We're still significantly in the red from the audit which makes it difficult to continue fighting legal challenges like this.

4) Please share this message with others.

You cannot reverse a previous President’s EO’s involving a national emergency while that national emergency is ongoing. You also cannot reverse the previous President’s PEAD’s. Biden will NEVER come out and admit his hands are tied, he has to do this. Instead he and his impotent administration are forced to mumble one lame excuse after another.

To reverse Trump’s EO’s signed and instituted and triggered into operational status by a national emergency, Biden would have to declare an end to the COVID pandemic. I’m pretty sure one of PEAD’s Trump signed involved his successor not being allowed by the military to reveal the election interference EO has become active. So Biden hasn’t declared an end to the national emergency because he can’t. Also, I’m pretty sure behind the scenes Trump’s EO on election interference being triggered activated several PEAD’s Trump signed that the Democrats in Congress are still trying get information about with their 1/6 commission subpoenaing Trump and Bannon. They will never get the information they’re frantically trying to uncover.

Counterpoint: what you’re saying here about Trump and national emergency EO’s and PEAD’s is so explosive, if true, there is no way it would not have leaked. Counter-counterpoint: Durham and other US Attorneys were SPYING ON SOME MOST POWERFUL MEMBERS OF CONGRESS for more than THREE YEARS via federal grand juries issuing search/surveillance warrants for all their phone calls, text messages, and emails and it never leaked. Durham revealed last month he used grand juries to subpoena records from Hillary Clinton’s lawyers, the DNC, Perkins Coie, Fusion GPS for evidence that will allow Durham to prove in the courtroom they manufactured both the Steele Dossier and the Alfa Bank hoaxes before handing them off to federal officials. Durham beat them all in secret grand jury court proceedings that likely lasted more than a year. A truly epic legal battle between The Witch and The Prosecutor. And the prosecutor won. And he until he dropped that indictment on Sussmann, NONE OF THAT LEAKED. So claiming there would have been leaks isn’t the strong counter point you think it is.

EO 13848
Trump's emergency powers worry some senators, legal experts
WASHINGTON – The day he declared the COVID-19 pandemic a national emergency, President Donald Trump made a cryptic offhand remark.
“I have the right to do a lot of things that people don’t even know about," he said at the White House.
Trump wasn’t just crowing. Dozens of statutory authorities become available to any president when national emergencies are declared. They are rarely used, but Trump last month stunned legal experts and others when he claimed — mistakenly — that he has “total” authority over governors in easing COVID-19 guidelines.
That prompted 10 senators to look into how sweeping Trump believes his emergency powers are.
They have asked to see this administration's Presidential Emergency Action Documents, or PEADs. The little-known, classified documents are essentially planning papers.
The documents don’t give a president authority beyond what's in the Constitution. But they outline what powers a president believes that the Constitution gives him to deal with national emergencies. The senators think the documents would provide them a window into how this White House interprets presidential emergency powers.
“Somebody needs to look at these things,” Sen. Angus King, I-Maine, said in a telephone interview. “This is a case where the president can declare an emergency and then say, ‘Because there’s an emergency, I can do this, this and this.’"
King, seven Democrats and one Republican sent a letter late last month to acting national intelligence director Richard Grenell asking to be briefed on any existing PEADs. Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., wrote a similar letter to Attorney General William Barr and White House counsel Pat Cipollone.
“The concern is that there could be actions taken that would violate individual rights under the Constitution," such as limiting due process, unreasonable search and seizure and holding individuals without cause, King said.
“I’m merely speculating. It may be that we get these documents and there’s nothing untoward in their checks and balances and everything is above board and reasonable.''
Joshua Geltzer, visiting professor of law at Georgetown University, said there is a push to take a look at these documents because there is rising distrust for the Trump administration's legal interpretations in a way he hasn't seen in his lifetime.
The most publicized example was Trump’s decision last year to declare the security situation along the U.S.-Mexico border a national emergency. That decision allowed him to take up to $3.6 billion from military construction projects to finance wall construction beyond the miles that lawmakers had been willing to fund. Trump’s move skirted the authority of Congress, which by law has the power to spend money in the nation’s wallet.
“I worry about other things he might call an emergency,” Geltzer said. “I think around the election itself in November — that’s where there seems to be a lot of potential for mischief with this president.”
The lawmakers made their request just days after Trump made his startling claim on April 13 that he had the authority to force states to reopen for business amid the pandemic.
“When somebody’s the president of the United States, the authority is total,” Trump said, causing a backlash from some governors and legal experts. Trump later tweeted that while some people say it's the governors, not the president's decision, "Let it be fully understood that this is incorrect.”
Trump later backtracked on his claim of “total" authority and agreed that states have the upper hand in deciding when to end their lockdowns. But it was just the latest from a president who has been stretching existing statutory authorities “to, if not beyond, their breaking point," said Stephen Vladeck, a law professor at the University of Texas.

“When somebody’s the president of the United States, the authority is total,” Trump said, causing a backlash from some governors and legal experts. Trump later tweeted that while some people say it's the governors, not the president's decision, "Let it be fully understood that this is incorrect.”

But it was just the latest from a president who has been stretching existing statutory authorities “to, if not beyond, their breaking point," said Stephen Vladeck, a law professor at the University of Texas.
Questions about Trump's PEADs went unanswered by the Justice Department, National Security Council and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.
Elizabeth Goitein, co-director of a national security program at the Brennan Center for Justice at New York University School of Law, said PEADs have not been subject to congressional oversight for decades. She estimates that there are 50 to 60 of these documents, which include draft proclamations, executive orders and proposed legislation that could be swiftly introduced to “assert broad presidential authority” in national emergencies.
She said the Eisenhower administration had PEADs outlining how it might respond to a possible Soviet nuclear attack. According to the Brennan Center, PEADs issued up through the 1970s included detention of U.S. citizens suspected of being subversives, warrantless searches and seizures and the imposition of martial law.
“A Department of Justice memorandum from the Lyndon B. Johnson administration discusses a presidential emergency action document that would impose censorship on news sent abroad,” Goitein wrote in an op-ed with lawyer Andrew Boyle published last month in The New York Times.
"The memo notes that while no ‘express statutory authority’ exists for such a measure, ‘it can be argued that these actions would be legal in the aftermath of a devastating nuclear attack based on the president’s constitutional powers to preserve the national security.”’
Goitein said she especially worries about any orders having to do with military deployment, including martial law.
“You can imagine a situation where he (Trump) engineers a crisis that leads to domestic violence, which then becomes a pretext for martial law,” said Goitein, who insists she's simply playing out worst-case scenarios.
She said she wonders if there is a PEAD outlining steps the president could take to respond to a serious cyberattack. Would the president aggressively interpret telecommunications law and flip an internet kill switch, or restrain domestic internet traffic? she asks.
Bobby Chesney, associate dean at the University of Texas School of Law, said some fears might be exaggerated because while Trump makes off-the-cuff assertions of authority far beyond past presidents, he doesn't necessarily follow up with action.
Says Chesney: “His actions don’t match the rhetoric always — or even often.”

ASSANGE EXTRADITION APPEAL HEARING DAY 1
--—
This is the fifth part of the Day one thread in which the prosecution will make their argument.
-—
Julian looks exhausted and is having trouble staying awake it seems.
-–
Prosecution is arguing that by not disclosing Stella's relationship to Julian, they actively misled the court (one might assume the US governments non-admittance of attempting to murder all of them might also be considered misleading and directly related to this event. Defense will have to decide that. )
—-
Prosecution fails to note that the original judge took into consideration the situation around Stella and Julian, and understood the implications of Kopelmans actions and knew about their relationship before weighing any medical evidence. So even with the omission, it would not have impacted her decision.
—
Julian has moved out of camera view (again, he looks very ill, not sure what is going on there)
—
Prosecution attempts to wave away expert testimony from Dr Crosby, as a "friend of Assange". And says they wont bother the court with it.
*Dr. Crosby found Assange suffered from major depression with psychotic characterstics due to his long term imprisonment, and found him to be at extreme risk of self harm and suicide.
—-
Prosecution continues to tought their own doctor, Dr. Blackwood who has received millions from US and UK militaries and special interests, as an unbiased opinion who just so happens to agree with them completely that Assange's condition is just fine for extraditing. That all the other multiple experts can be ignored based on that fact.
—-
Prosecution claims Julian did not report any psychotic symptoms to any of their medical experts or Belmarsh prison psychiatrist.
Prosecution then proceeds to echo the doctors they funded whose testimony says Julian's depression was not that bad etc.
-
Prosecution is treading a lot of ground already covered here. Really their entire argument has nothing to do with legal technicalities, but seems to be an attempt to convince different judges of an already failed and disproven argument.
—
Prosecution just argued that Julian liking the library, and oranges, meant he wasnt suicidal.
They legitimately argued this, in a court of law.
—
Nothing new out of the prosecution on this appeal.
They are attacking Kopelman's testimony; which was their original failed move. Only it looks much worse this time around kn light of the public exposure of the CIAs plot to kidnap/kill Julian and staff/family.
—-
Prosecution is now complaining about Nils Milzer, the UN special Rapporteur on torture, who interviewed Assange and found significant signs of psychological torture. Claiming because Dr. Kopelmam agreed, that somehow this means they had a "bias"?
(The US Government's argument is… not so good here)
-
Prosecution seems to dislike the fact that testimony from US Attorney for the EDVA Gordon Kromberg was not taken seriously by Nilz and Kopelman (Kromberg basically wrote fiction, so this is understandable).
-
Prosecution is now attacking the fact that only one doctor diagnosed Assange with autism (though two others diagnosed him with "autistic traits") so…. the US government is again, just treading old ground here.
Their goal here to undercut the idea that his autism causes ruminations; and with his depression, dwells around suicide, and single mindedly might drive him to commit suicide if extradited.
—-
Chief Justice agrees with prosecution on technicality that district court judge may have committed an error in negotiating kopelman statement opinion.
—-
The final moments of the prosecution end with them wrongly concluding that evidence and testimony deserved to be weighted differently (by which they mean in their favor instead).
–
Defense will have 30 minutes now, and the whole day tomorrow
—-
Defense argues that prosecution completely misrepresented both evidence and district Judge's ruling.
–
Defense points out Dr Blackwood said 'suicidal ideation is not a medical issue.'

The CIA has been in the UK all day, right outside the courthouse where the Assange trial is taking place.
