Yesterday, the Manhattan trial of President Donald Trump, led by District Attorney Alvin Bragg, focused on discussions regarding whether Trump breached the judge's gag order. A decision from the judge on whether to hold Trump in contempt of court is expected soon. https://aclj.org/government-corruption/stop-political-prosecution-of-president-trump?utm_medium=Video&utm_source=Rumble&utm_campaign=d-04242024_seg-rumsekulow_top-GC_typ-PT_con-politicalprosecution

It’s a big day for President Trump as the U.S. Supreme Court Justices heard oral arguments in Trump’s immunity case. Will the Supreme Court grant or deny Trump presidential immunity for official acts taken while he was President? Here’s how we got to where we are today: Special Counsel Jack Smith’s Jan. 6 federal election case against President Trump accuses the former President of “obstruction of an official proceeding,” i.e., trying to overturn the 2020 election results. President Trump asserted that he had constitutional authority to investigate the validity of the 2020 election results. Smith then argued that no President should have presidential immunity for official actions taken while in office: “A former President is subject to federal criminal prosecution for personal and official acts that violate valid criminal laws.” Such an argument means a President could be liable for any decision that goes wrong – a drone strike, for example. Trump refuted this outrageous claim and appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court to rule on the case. The ACLJ filed an amicus brief in this massive case. We don’t believe that any President receives total blanket presidential immunity for any action as President. We have criminal laws on the books that would hold a President accountable if he, for example, took a bribe for appointing someone as an ambassador. However, we believe that a President should have immunity for official decisions made while President. If a President is afraid to make tough decisions for fear of potential jail time, then the office of the President will be greatly weakened. As President Trump told reporters today, “If you don’t have immunity, you just have a ceremonial president.” He’s exactly right. The oral arguments were ongoing while we were on air today, and from what we could tell, the Justices appeared to agree that no President should have blanket immunity, but they also didn’t believe in removing immunity completely. While it’s impossible to guess the outcome of a case, based on oral arguments, it appears that the justices may agree with our arguments. https://aclj.org/government-corruption/stop-political-prosecution-of-president-trump?utm_medium=Video&utm_source=Rumble&utm_campaign=d-04252024_seg-rumsekulow_top-GC_typ-PT_con-politicalprosecution

President Donald Trump’s Manhattan trial (spearheaded by DA Alvin Bragg) continued yesterday with arguments about whether Trump violated the judge’s gag order. The judge’s ruling, which could result in Trump being held in contempt of court (a $10,000 daily fine or possible jail time), is imminent. The gag order that the judge put in place is very restrictive. President Trump isn’t in court today, but the judge’s ruling could still be issued. First, let’s discuss what a gag order should be. It’s usually reserved to protect witnesses or jurors who fear possible consequences if they tell the truth about a defendant. This protects the witnesses and jurors from being pressured to lie because they feel threatened – it also hinders witness tampering. But the Manhattan judge’s order doesn’t fall under this purview. And it even prevents the President from discussing the conflict of interest with the judge’s daughter, who isn’t a witness or a defendant in the trial but a Democratic fundraiser (has raised $93 million) whose client is Rep. Adam Schiff (CA-30). Do you think people might want to know about possible conflicts of interest? While this circus is taking place in Manhattan, oral argument will begin tomorrow at the U.S. Supreme Court in President Trump’s immunity case. Special Prosecutor Jack Smith is arguing all Presidents should be denied immunity for any actions while in office: “A former President is subject to federal criminal prosecution for personal and official acts that violate valid criminal laws.” Smith’s radical claim ignores the potential consequences for former Presidents. The ACLJ filed an amicus brief arguing that President Trump should not be held liable for official actions taken in office. Stripping U.S. Presidents of presidential immunity will only weaken the office of the President going forward – this outrageous crusade by the far Left must be stopped. https://aclj.org/government-corruption/stop-political-prosecution-of-president-trump?utm_medium=Video&utm_source=Rumble&utm_campaign=d-04242024_seg-rumsekulow_top-GC_typ-PT_con-politicalprosecution

Jordan Sekulow, the Executive Director for the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ), appeared on NewsMax to discuss what he describes as blatant election interference stemming from the legal challenges President Donald Trump is facing in New York. During the interview, Sekulow argued that the timing and nature of the charges suggest a strategic attempt to undermine Trump's influence ahead of upcoming elections. https://aclj.org/government-corruption/stop-political-prosecution-of-president-trump?utm_medium=Video&utm_source=Rumble&utm_campaign=d-04242024_seg-rumsekulow_top-GC_typ-PT_con-politicalprosecution

‘Five for Fighting’ frontman John Ondrasik just got back from a trip to Tel Aviv. He performed the day before Iran’s unprecedented attack on Israel. He talks about his experience and dives into a discussion about the antisemitic protests breaking out at universities across the country. Ondrasik says the “Free Palestine'' demonstrators are cosplaying as Hamas terrorists. https://aclj.org/israel/defend-israel-stop-biden-from-supporting-her-enemies?utm_medium=Video&utm_source=Rumble&utm_campaign=d-04232024_seg-rumsekulow_top-IS_typ-PT_con-defendIsrael

This morning, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Donald Trump’s immunity case. The former President’s attorney John Sauer argued before the Court that “prosecuting the president for his official acts is an innovation with no foothold in history or tradition and incompatible with our constitutional structure.” The attorney who argued the case for Special Counsel Jack Smith pushed back on that by saying, “That is not official conduct, that is campaign conduct.” https://aclj.org/government-corruption/stop-political-prosecution-of-president-trump?utm_medium=Video&utm_source=Rumble&utm_campaign=d-04252024_seg-rumsekulow_top-GC_typ-PT_con-politicalprosecution

Sekulow takes calls on how the New York civil case trial judge is about to deliver a ruling on the gag order for Trump and other potential witnesses in order to control public commentary that could compromise the trial's fairness. However, such restrictions could do the exact opposite, stifling opposing viewpoints and allowing only one side to dominate the narrative. Also, a huge case is at the Supreme Court on immunity for Donald Trump and other former U.S. Presidents. https://aclj.org/government-corruption/stop-political-prosecution-of-president-trump?utm_medium=Video&utm_source=Rumble&utm_campaign=d-04242024_seg-rumsekulow_top-GC_typ-PT_con-politicalprosecution

Khymani James, a prominent figure and protest leader at Columbia University, has sparked outrage with a shocking video where calls were made for the demise of Zionists. As a leader of antisemitic protests, James's inflammatory rhetoric has escalated tensions within the university community. The release of this video has intensified scrutiny on the issue of intolerance and hate speech on campus. https://aclj.org/israel/defend-israel-stop-biden-from-supporting-her-enemies?utm_medium=Video&utm_source=Rumble&utm_campaign=d-04262024_seg-rumsekulow_top-IS_typ-PT_con-defendIsrael
