By Larry Klayman WND November 24, 2017 You know me as the only lawyer ever to have had a court of law rule that a sitting president committed a crime. That ruling was made by federal judge Royce C. Lamberth, and it concerned a woman who then-President Bill Clinton had sexually harassed in the Oval Office. Her name is Kathleen Willey. “Slick Willy,” no relation, in his usual classless and disgusting way, committed this act of sexual aggression just days after Kathleen’s husband had died. Of course, we now know that Kathleen was not the only victim of the…
Blue State Blues: President Trump’s Lawyers Are Violating His Sixth Amendment Rights – Breitbart By Joel B. Pollak Breitbart November 24, 2017 The Sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees every American citizen the right “to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defense.” If President Donald Trump winds up in the crosshairs of Special Counsel Robert Mueller on some charge unrelated to the Russia conspiracy theory — or if, after next year’s election, he faces a Democratic House determined to impeach him, he might well consider suing his lawyers for violating his rights.

WHAT IF ROY MOORE WINS? By Scott Rasmussen November 23, 2017 When Donald Trump appointed Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions to serve as Attorney General, it was widely assumed that his permanent replacement would be a Republican. But the scandals and allegations surrounding Republican nominee Roy Moore have challenged that assumption.
