Scavino? I doubt it. Few of these flunkies ever go against the mighty former guy.

Tanya Chutkan, the judge overseeing Trump's federal election interference case, appears to be victim of 'swatting'
Police and fire trucks responded to reports of a shooting at Chutkan's home, but police determined no shooting had taken place.


https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald ... rcna132856
Police confirmed to NBC News that they responded to false reports of a shooting at a house that a witness identified as Chutkan's home. A law enforcement official also confirmed that it was Chutkan’s home and that she was home when police arrived at her residence.

A police report obtained by NBC News said that officers with the Metropolitan Police Department responded to a call just after 10 p.m. ET that referenced a shooting that occurred at the location. Once authorities arrived at the scene, an unnamed subject said she "was not injured and that there was no one in her home."

Police "determined no shooting took place," a police spokesperson told NBC News. It's unclear from where or from whom the call to emergency services originated.

Chutkan is the federal judge overseeing the federal election interference case brought by Special Counsel Jack Smith against Trump. She appeared to be the victim of "swatting," which happens when someone makes a false report of a crime in progress to draw police to a certain location.

Special counsel Jack Smith was targeted by attempted swatting on Christmas Day

Police were dispatched toward Smith's residence but were called off when they learned it was a false alarm and that everyone inside the home was safe.

DC Circuit pointing out that during Impeachment #2, TFG argued that he didn't need to be impeached because he could be prosecuted after

NB. Sauer has been arguing for 20 minutes the exact opposite.

"hypothetical jurisdiction" under discussion.

Been hearing a lot about this lately, as the perfect solution to the "no juristiction" but "need to be heard on the merits" dilemma.

In his rebuttal, Sauer again brings up "political opponent leading in every poll."

Appeals court judges skeptical of Trump's immunity appeal in election interference case
The judges also questioned the attorneys about whether they should even render a decision on his claim of immunity and instead allow the case to move forward in the trial court.


https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald ... rcna132281
Federal appeals court judges on Tuesday questioned former President Donald Trump broad claim of immunity from prosecution for his efforts to overturn the 2020 election that resulted in a chain of events that culminated in the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol.

The all-woman three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit said nothing to suggest they would embrace Trump's immunity argument, although they raised several options on how they could rule.

The court could issue a ruling that decisively resolves the immunity question, allowing the trial to move quickly forward, or alight on a more narrow ruling that could leave some issues unresolved. They could also simply rule that Trump had no right to bring an appeal at this stage of the litigation.

Trump arrived at the federal courthouse in Washington, D.C., a few minutes before oral arguments began at 9:30 a.m. and sat at his lawyers' table. He was mostly muted during his lawyers’ presentation but grew flustered at points when the prosecution's lawyer was speaking. He could be seen passing notes to his lawyers on a yellow legal pad.

Special counsel Jack Smith was also present at the hearing, which lasted for a little over an hour.

So far he is just pontificating about immunity and hasn't posted to Truth regarding it yet, but I'll keep an eye out.

Moron. Did he not just get finished arguing that the president has full immunity?

Is it just me, or are they twisting themselves into pretzels why tfg has immunity but Biden doesn't have immunity?

I saw the courtroom sketches on CNN. Walt Nauta was there in his shadow like always. Also heard on CNN that the room they used for the press thingie was in his old DC hotel, now Waldorf Astoria I think.
