President Joe Biden tripped on the stair of Air Force One a few weeks ago. Well, a few days ago, Biden almost fell again while climbing up the stairs of the Presidential plane.
This time around, Biden was able to catch himself to make sure he didn’t trip. Watch the video below.
Former President Donald Trump has been acquitted in his impeachment trial. The Senate voted 57-43 to acquit the former President.
In order to find Trump guilty of “incitement of a insurrection,” the Impeachment Managers would need a two-thirds majority, or 67 votes. Today’s vote came with all 50 democrats voting to convict with 7 republicans joining them.
Those who joined democrats include Republicans, including Richard Burr of North Carolina, Senator Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Senator Susan Collins of Maine, Senator Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Senator Ben Sasse of Nebraska, Senator Mitt Romney of Utah, and Senator Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania.
Now that former President Trump has been acquitted it opens up the lanes for a 2024 run as of now.
The 45th President of the United States of America, Donald J. Trump, saw his Hollywood income plummet.
Trump was a Hollywood power house prior to his Presidential term. During his pre-White House days, Trump was the host of The Apprentice as well as making cameo appearances on many movies.
The New York Post says that his Hollywood income has virtually disappeared, according to his latest financial disclosure. For example, Trump earned $2 million in 2018 from The Apprentice. In 2019, his check from The Apprentice was $1.6 million. Last year, his check was just $275,000.
One of the biggest reasons for the drop off is that The Apprentice is not currently in syndication or streaming anywhere. His union pensions rose a little. He earned $84,292 from SAG and just under $10,000 from AFTRA.
In a shocking turn of events, Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts will not be presiding over the impeachment trial of President Donald Trump like the constitution calls for.
Democratic Senator (who voted to impeach the former President in 2020) Patrick Leahy will be presiding over the impeachment trial. Leahy is the Senate President Pro Tempore.
Leahy promised to administer “impartial justice” in the trial in a statement he gave to The Hill. The statement reads:
The president pro tempore has historically presided over Senate impeachment trials of non-presidents. When presiding over an impeachment trial, the president pro tempore takes an additional special oath to do impartial justice according to the Constitution and the laws. It is an oath that I take extraordinarily seriously.
I consider holding the office of the president pro tempore and the responsibilities that come with it to be one of the highest honors and most serious responsibilities of my career. When I preside over the impeachment trial of former President Donald Trump, I will not waver from my constitutional and sworn obligations to administer the trial with fairness, in accordance with the Constitution and the laws.
Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) raised concerns saying “If the chief justice doesn’t preside, I think it’s an illegitimate hearing and really goes to show that it’s not really constitutional to impeach someone who’s not president.”
Politico has been reporting that Roberts wanted nothing to do with the second attempt to impeach President Trump. “We’re hearing that Roberts, who for years has sought to keep the courts apolitical, was not happy he became a top target of the left during Trump’s first impeachment trial. ‘He wants no further part of this,’ one of our Hill sources says.”
Looks like President Trump will have a few weeks to put together a legal defense team as his Impeachment Trial has been delayed until February 8, 2021.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) announced on Friday that he and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) made an agreement to give Trump two weeks to prepare for his trial.
Under this agreement, the House impeachment managers will read the Article of Impeachment on Monday, January 25 at 7pm. The next day, the Senate will be sworn in as jurors for the trial. Trump will have until February 2 to respond.
Over the next two weeks, the Senate will be able to conduct other business as they wait for the trail to begin. This will allow the Senate to hold hearing to confirm President Joe Biden’s cabinet.
Former President of the United States Donald Trump said he will be making a come back soon but was very shy on details.
Trump made his first remarks since leaving office on Friday. Trump told Rob Crilly of the Washington Examiner that he will be returning soon.
“We’ll do something, but not just yet,” Trump said. A Trump assistant ended the interview as quickly as it started according to The New York Post.
Trump is currently living out of his Mar-A-Lago club in Florida. Rumors have it that the former President is seeking a possible 3rd party run for the White House in 2024.
The former President is also facing an impeachment trail.
It is official; Vice President-Elect Kamala Harris has resigned her position as Senator.
In a letter to California Governor Gavin Newsom, Harris says its time for her to focus on her next job: Vice President of the United States.
Her full resignition can be found below:
January 18, 2021
Governor Gavin Newsom
1303 10th Street, Suite 1173
Sacramento, CA 95814Dear Governor Newsom:
I hereby resign as Senator from the State of California, effective January 18th, 2021 at 12:00 p.m. EST. As I assume my duties as Vice President of the United States, I would like to thank the people of California for the honor of serving them in the U.S. Senate over the past four years.
Sincerely,
Kamala D. Harris
United States Senator
Harris is set to be sworn in as Vice President on Wednesday along with Joe Biden as President.
The Daily Wire is reporting that Vice President-Elect Kamala Harris will be resigning from the US Senate on Monday.
Aide to Harris have confirmed the news to the Associated Press that her resignation is imminent. California Governor Gavin Newsom has already announced her replacement in Alex Padilla. Harris will have only served one term in the United States Senate.
According to the report, Harris will not be giving a farewell speech as Senators in the past have done as the Senate is not in session.
Harris will be sworn in as Vice President on Wednesday along with Joe Biden as President.
With all the major media networks calling the 2020 Presidential Election for Joe Biden, it looks like President Trump’s time in the White House could be coming to an end. If that were to happen, there are rumors that the President could see a book deal worth $100 Millions (over $30 million more than Michelle and Barack Obama’s book deal).
Should Trump not win his legal battle for the Office of President of the United States, there are rumors about Trump’s future. Page Six is reporting that Trump is being courted by right-wing TV outlets. book and TV deals are plan-B if he doesn’t win the vote war. Translate 70 million votes into viewers and record book sales. All the anti-Trump books have made big bucks, so this from the Donald is a surefire hit.”
One “book insider” claims that the reported numbers might be exaggerated. “One publisher to watch is Simon & Schuster,” the book insider told Page Six. “They published [Trump’s] last book. CEO Jonathan Karp published several of his books there, and at Random House, and went to Trump’s wedding to Melania.” (Trump’s most recent book, “Crippled America,” was put out via Simon & Schuster’s conservative Threshold Editions.) [Page Six].
The new Simon & Schuster publisher Dana Canedy told the New Yorker that she would be willing to publish a book from Trump. When asked Canedy says “Oh, he’s the President. Everyone who leaves the White House has one or more books in them and that becomes part of public history. I think that would be not only appropriate but important.”
Simon & Schuster has published books from Trump before and also has been the publisher for Hillary Clinton’s books as well as Bob Woodward, John Bolton, and Mary L. Trump’s book.
Early Saturday morning it was announced that Joe Biden had secured 273 electoral votes winning him the Presidency of the United States. Joe Biden has been declared the President-elect, making Kamala Harris the first female Vice President-elect of the United States.
To be clear, Joe Biden is not the official President-elect as the nation awaits the Electoral College to officially vote on December 14th. If all things go the way Biden expects, he will be sworn in on January 20, 2021.
President Donald Trump issued a statement claiming fraud in the 2020 Election. The full statement from the President is below.
We all know why Joe Biden is rushing to falsely pose as the winner, and why his media allies are trying so hard to help him: they don’t want the truth to be exposed. The simple fact is this election is far from over. Joe Biden has not been certified as the winner of any states, let alone any of the highly contested states headed for mandatory recounts, or states where our campaign has valid and legitimate legal challenges that could determine the ultimate victor. In Pennsylvania, for example, our legal observers were not permitted meaningful access to watch the counting process. Legal votes decide who is president, not the news media.
Beginning Monday, our campaign will start prosecuting our case in court to ensure election laws are fully upheld and the rightful winner is seated. The American People are entitled to an honest election: that means counting all legal ballots, and not counting any illegal ballots. This is the only way to ensure the public has full confidence in our election. It remains shocking that the Biden campaign refuses to agree with this basic principle and wants ballots counted even if they are fraudulent, manufactured, or cast by ineligible or deceased voters. Only a party engaged in wrongdoing would unlawfully keep observers out of the count room – and then fight in court to block their access.
So what is Biden hiding? I will not rest until the American People have the honest vote count they deserve and that Democracy demands.
Legal advisor to the President Jenna Ellis state that the election is not over in a statement to Daily Wire. “Media coordinated efforts are attempting to simply declare Joe Biden the president and ignore the rule of law. There is no official winner until every legal vote is counted accurately, the states certify results, and all legal challenges are resolved,” Ellis said.
The President made it clear that his campaign plans to litigate all allegations of fraud.
