Donald Trump says he doesn’t know, never met some of his accusers.

The Case Against Powell and Chesebro Isn't About Whether Or They Know Each Other Or Colluded Together: It's About Whether Or Not They Colluded With Donald Trump To Overturn The Election. WATCH: Sidney Powell's lawyer tells court she 'had nothing to do with most' of Georgia election case An attorney for Sidney Powell on Wednesday asked a Georgia court to sever her case from her co-defendants, saying that her inclusion with them in a trial would "prejudice" her own case. Powell was charged as one of 18 co-defendants alongside former President Donald Trump under the state's RICO Act, which is typically used to prosecute organized crime. The grand jury indictment brought by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis included two counts of conspiracy to commit election fraud for Powell, in addition to other charges. Both Powell and Kenneth Chesebro, an attorney who was influential in the alleged scheme to disrupt the certification of electoral votes by appointing alternate electors, have both asked for a speedy trial. Their lawyers sought to avoid them being tried together. Powell's attorney Brian Rafferty told the court that Powell had little to do with most of the accusations in the indictment, was not the "driving force" and that her case was limited to charges involving illegally copying election files in Coffee County, Georgia. "Ms. Powell had nothing to do with most of it," Rafferty said, adding that trying her with others accused of serious crimes in a complicated case would mean she could not get a fair trial. Chesebro's attorney also asked that his client's case be severed from Powell's because there had been "no direct contact or communication" between the two and no "overlap between the overt acts or the substantive charges." Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee ruled that Chesebro and Powell would be tried together, with a trial scheduled to begin on Oct. 23. The judge asked prosecutors to submit a brief on whether that trial would include any of the other co-defendants, including Trump. https://youtu.be/p0n_Wkt021w Trump Keeps Saying He 'Never Met' People He Clearly Knows.

He was not only a great crime fighter in New York City, but a leader who, through his first police commissioner, Bill Bratton, and Mr. Bratton’s brilliant staff, showed the entire nation how to fight street crime. They chose to focus on career criminals, knowing that a small percentage of recidivist felons committed most of the serious crimes in New York. Mr. Giuliani also led the effective effort to declare war on white collar crime. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/08/25/opinion/letters/rudy-giulianis-legacy.html

“Gangsters of Capitalism”: Jonathan Katz on the Parallels Between Jan. 6 and 1934 Anti-FDR Coup Plot.

HAS THERE EVER BEEN A TIME IN AMERICA'S HISTORY WHEN THERE WASN'T A BUNCH OF RICH PRICKS TRYING TO END THE CONSTITUTION AND TAKE OVER? “Gangsters of Capitalism”: Jonathan Katz on the Parallels Between Jan. 6 and 1934 Anti-FDR Coup Plot We speak to award-winning journalist Jonathan Katz about his new book “Gangsters of Capitalism: Smedley Butler, the Marines, and the Making and Breaking of America’s Empire.” The book follows the life of the Marines officer Smedley Butler and the trail of U.S. imperialism from Cuba and the Philippines to Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua and Panama. The book also describes an effort by banking and business leaders to topple Franklin D. Roosevelt’s government in 1934 in order to establish a fascist dictatorship. The plot was exposed by Butler, who famously declared, “War is a racket.” The far-right conspiracy to overthrow liberal democracy has historical parallels to the recent January 6 insurrection, says Katz. https://www.dem

Woman had alleged Trump and billionaire Jeffrey Epstein raped her in 1994. A conference had been scheduled for December 2016. A woman who had accused Donald Trump of raping her when she was a 13-year-old dropped her lawsuit against the Republican nominee on Friday. One of the accuser’s attorneys, Thomas Meagher, filed a one-page voluntary dismissal in district court in New York late on Friday. Neither he nor a second attorney listed immediately responded to questions about the document. The woman, who had filed suit earlier this year under the pseudonym Jane Doe, had alleged that Trump and billionaire Jeffrey Epstein had raped her in 1994, when she was a 13-year-old aspiring model. Trump’s accuser asserted that while she was exploring a modeling career in 1994, she attended a series of parties at the Manhattan home of prominent investor Jeffrey Epstein. She alleges that during those parties the real estate mogul tied her to a bed and raped her. She also claimed Epste
