Trump Wants to Prosecute Biden. He Also Thinks Presidents Deserve Immunity. - The New York Times
Paradoxically, should the Supreme Court decide that presidents do enjoy some degree of immunity for their official actions while in office, the ruling would deprive Mr. Trump of one of the major themes that he and his allies have promoted throughout the current campaign: that Mr. Biden needs to be held to account by the criminal justice system, despite the lack of compelling evidence that he has violated any laws...
Key Witness ENDS Trump With BRUTAL Testimony
In his trial testimony, the lawyer for BOTH STORMY DANIELS and KAREN McDOUGAL PROVED SO MANY ELEMENTS OF THE PROSECTION’s case against Trump, the PROSECUTION COULD CONSIDER SITTING DOWN AND RESTING!

Community Financial Services Association of America, is a perfect example of how phony front groups and their dark money funders are attempting to use a captured Court to attack people’s ability through their government to protect themselves.
