- “This is what the Democrats do to their Republican Opponent, who is leading them, by a lot, in the Polls. This is A.I., and it is very dangerous for our Country!” wrote Trump. “I was never on Epstein’s Plane, or at his ‘stupid’ Island. Strong Laws ought to be developed against A.I. It will be a big and very dangerous problem in the future!”

- BANANA REPUBLIC AMERICA: Maine Bars Trump from Ballot
- Maine’s Democratic Secretary of State, Shenna Bellows, made the unprecedented decision on Thursday to exclude former President Donald Trump from the state’s presidential primary ballot, ostensibly under the Constitution’s insurrection clause. This move, which was prompted by the Jan 6th insurrection hoax, could have significant ramifications for the Electoral College. Maine’s unique system of splitting its four electoral votes means the absence of Trump if he is the Republican candidate could be consequential in an expected closely-contested race.
- The decision by Bellows follows a comparable action made by the Colorado Supreme Court in December, which similarly disqualified Trump under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. This ruling was reached following a challenge by a group of far-left Maine residents. Despite pushback from Trump’s lawyers who requested her recusal citing exhibited bias, Bellows stood by the ruling stating the Capitol attack was an insurrection, despite no court ruling supporting such a claim.
- The final say on Trump’s political future does not lie solely with Bellows, however. Her decision is subject to legal appeal and expected to reach the U.S. Supreme Court for final determination early next year. Meanwhile, the ruling has also incentivized self-described communists nationwide to call for Trump’s removal from their ballots under the same clause. While previously rejected, this constituted Maine law’s first-ever exclusion of a presidential candidate from its ballot. The Trump campaign has stated its intention to appeal the ruling. A decision which, if reached by the Supreme Court, will affect all states including Maine.

Important Takeaways:
- The Colorado Supreme Court ruled Tuesday in a 4-3 opinion that the Constitution’s “Insurrection Clause” prohibits former President Donald Trump from appearing on the ballot for the presidency in 2024.
- “The court found by clear and convincing evidence that President Trump engaged in insurrection as those terms are used in Section Three” of the Fourteenth Amendment, the ruling reads.
- The Court disagreed with Trump’s claims that his actions were protected free speech.
- “We consider and reject President Trump’s argument that his speech on January 6 was protected by the First Amendment,” the ruling reads, seemingly ignoring Trump’s calls that day for protesters to conduct themselves “peacefully and patriotically.”
- In partially reversing Wallace, the Court all but dared the U.S. Supreme Court to step in by January 4, 2024.
- “If review is sought in the Supreme Court before the stay expires on January 4, 2024, then the stay shall remain in place, and the Secretary will continue to be required to include President Trump’s name on the 2024 presidential primary ballot, until the receipt of any order or mandate from the Supreme Court,” the ruling says.

- Tucker Carlson on Trump Prosecutions: ‘You’re Going to Get Violence if You Keep This Sh-t Up’
- Tucker Carlson, founder of the Tucker Carlson Network, said Monday on SiriusXM’s “The Megyn Kelly Show”
- Discussing what could happen if Trump is convicted in the federal election case, Megyn Kelly said, “If she puts him in jail pending appeal before the election the country’s going to burn… I’m not calling for violence. But there is no way the Trump base is not going to be beside itself with anger at that level of deprivation of being able to simply vote for the candidate of choice. That’s what’s being taken away here.”
- Carlson said, “Speaking of violence that is what you are going to get.”
- He continued, “If you leave people no alternative, then what do you think is going to happen? I mean, the whole point of electoral democracy is that it’s a pressure relief valve that takes people who are very frustrated with the way things are going and gives them a way to express themselves, have their desires heard and ultimately their will done, to be represented in a peaceful way.”
- Carlson added, “You’re rigging the election. And they did that. So, if you keep doing that, and people are like, ‘Wait, I have no economic power. You’ve devalued my currency so it’s like, $11 for a dozen eggs. And my vote doesn’t matter anymore, well then, what do I have? Like, what power do I have?’ And you’re going to get violence if you keep this shit up. That’s just the truth. And I’m very upset about that. I don’t want that to happen. I think the counter-violence will be much more extreme than the violence, but any rational person can see what’s coming. So, they have to stop this. The charges against Trump are not real. They’re not even for serious crimes.”

Important Takeaways:
- Judge Rules Trump Defrauded Banks, Insurers While Building Real Estate Empire
- A judge ruled Tuesday that Donald Trump committed fraud for years while building the real estate empire that catapulted him to fame and the White House, and he ordered some of the former president’s companies removed from his control and dissolved.
- Judge Arthur Engoron, ruling in a civil lawsuit brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James, found that Trump and his company deceived banks, insurers and others by massively overvaluing his assets and exaggerating his net worth on paperwork used in making deals and securing loans.
- Engoron ordered that some of Trump’s business licenses be rescinded as punishment, making it difficult or impossible for them to do business in New York, and said he would continue to have an independent monitor oversee Trump Organization operations.
- If not successfully appealed, the order would strip Trump of his authority to make strategic and financial decisions over some of his key properties in the state.
- Trump, in a series of statements, railed against the decision, calling it “un-American” and part of an ongoing plot to damage his campaign to return to the White House.
- “My Civil rights have been violated, and some Appellate Court, whether federal or state, must reverse this horrible, un-American decision,” he wrote on his Truth Social site. He insisted his company had “done a magnificent job for New York State” and “done business perfectly,” calling it “A very sad Day for the New York State System of Justice!”
- Under the ruling, limited liability companies that control some of Trump’s key properties, such as 40 Wall Street, will be dissolved and authority over how to run them handed over to a receiver. Trump would lose his authority over whom to hire or fire, whom to rent office space to, and other key decisions.
- “The decision seeks to nationalize one of the most successful corporate empires in the United States and seize control of private property all while acknowledging there is zero evidence of any default, breach, late payment or any complaint of harm,” Kise said after the decision.

- In a new interview with NBC’s Meet the Press, the former president denounced Florida’s heartbeat law protecting unborn children from abortion after six weeks when their heartbeat can be detected, calling it “a terrible thing” and “a terrible mistake.”

Important Takeaways:
- Haley, a 2024 Republican presidential candidate, had suggested in a July interview with Fox News that the 80-year-old Biden, because of his old age, could die in office.
- In response, Christopher queried how conservatives would react if Biden said Trump could die in prison if he potentially goes to jail for one or more of his indictments. But Obeidallah went a step further – contending that Trump “must” die in prison.
- “I think Donald Trump must die in prison because – I don’t care if he was 45 years old. You should get life in prison if you attempt a coup, and there should be no chance of parole,” Obeidallah told Christopher, “I don’t care who it is.”
- Obeidallah said he was so impassioned about the prospects of a life sentence for Trump because it would send a message to the public that you cannot “chip away” at the “democratic republic” of the United States.
- He has subsequently insisted that he was not calling for Trump to be murdered but for there to be such a lengthy prison sentence that he passes of natural causes.
