SURPRISE! – Judge Who Wants Trump Attorney Disbarred is Massive Democrat Donor.

Conservative attorney John Eastman faces potential disbarment and a substantial financial penalty following a recommendation by California judge Yvette Roland. But Roland is a massive Democrat Party donor, calling her judgment into question when making such a recommendation. Roland has specifically donated thousands of dollars to Barack Obama, Gavin Newsom, and Democrat fundraising operation ActBlue, The National Pulse can reveal.

Her recommended sanctions against Eastment include a $10,000 fine. Eastman’s supposed offense was spearheading a novel legal theory to contest the results of the 2020 Presidential Election. The sanctions and disbarment recommendation are now subject to review by the California Supreme Court.

In an interview on War Room with Stephen K. Bannon, Eastman said he faces disbarment in just three days unless an appellate court intervenes and issues a stay while he pursues an appeal. Eastman described the California judge’s ruling: “It’s 128 pages… and almost every page has at least one blatant lie on it.”

“We’re going to be challenging this vigorously all the way up through the U.S. Supreme Court if necessary,” he added.

If the disbarment recommendation proceeds and is successful, Eastman, a highly regarded constitutional scholar, will lose his ability to practice law in California. The proceeding took place over 32 nonconsecutive days and stretched over ten weeks. Eastman told Bannon that at least one commenter speculated it may have been the most protracted and expensive bar disciplinary hearing in history.

The constitutional scholar explained to Bannon the numerous instances where the judge presiding over his California Bar hearing had ruled to exclude exculpatory evidence — including legal briefs from at least six state attorneys general who had agreed with his assessment against certifying the 2020 presidential election after allegations of fraud.

“She said that their briefs were not relevant, even though they did exactly the same thing I did, which demonstrated that reasonable attorneys were taking these actions,” Eastman said.

“This is Orwellian, it is authoritarian,” he said, responding to the judge’s process and ruling. “The government has spoken, and you better bow to our claims, or we’re going to destroy you.”

DATA: Most Americans Agree That Obama is Running Biden’s White House.

Most voters believe former President Barack Hussein Obama — not Joe Biden — is currently running the U.S. federal government. New data from Rasmussen Reports indicates 53 percent of voters agree Biden is “a puppet for a progressive left committee… headed by Obama.”

Former President Donald Trump has frequently accused Obama of serving a third term in office through Biden. Trump has often substituted “Obama” for “Biden” during campaign speeches to illustrate the point to voters, leading to confusion amongst Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’s online operatives.

Voter concerns that former Obama is exercising undue influence over the Biden White House aren’t unfounded. The National Pulse previously reported that the former Democrat President has at least spearheaded Biden’s A.I. policy agenda. Obama coordinated with Big Tech and West Wing officials on Biden’s behalf as he pieced together an executive order on A.I. The order sets the groundwork for federal oversight of and funding of the technology and authorizes new government hires.

In the past, Obama has mused about serving a third term in office. During a 2016 podcast interview with his former senior advisor David Axelrod, Obama said he believes he could have won a third term in 2016. “I am confident in this vision because I’m confident that if I had run again and articulated it, I think I could’ve mobilized a majority of the American people to rally behind it,” he said.

During an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert in 2020, Obama said he’d be fine with an arrangement where “I was just in my basement in my sweats looking through the stuff” and used an earpiece to “deliver the lines, but somebody else was doing all the talking and ceremony.”

‘Our Elections Are NOT Secure’ Warns Ex AG Who Predicted 2020 ‘Steal’.

Former Kansas Attorney General Phillip Kline has warned that America’s elections remain unsecured and subject to manipulation by partisan, private interests. “We have not fixed what we need to fix. Our elections are not secure, they are not inclusive, they are not transparent, and the problems that we had in 2020 will find new expression in new form in 2024, because for some reason America, collectively, is allergic to understanding the truth and initiating common-sense reforms,” Kline warned in an interview.

“[T]he left, beginning after 2000 and Bush v. Gore, started extensive efforts to ‘reform’ American election law, in other words influence it to benefit the left,” he said, explaining how the Democrats have used tools first developed in the Deep South during Reconstruction to treat voters disparately.

“[W]e’ve privatized our elections, that’s the problem,” Kline said, referring to the involvement of the likes of Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg in the 2020 election, through the Center for Tech and Civic Life.

Even before the 2020 election, Kline predicted private interests would distort the 2020 election. His Amistad Project organization brought lawsuits to try and stop Zuckerberg and other leftist plutocrats from pouring grossly disproportionate resources into boosting votes in Democratic areas, arguing this gave an unlawful structural advantage to one party – but judges declined to act.

“We have private resources in election offices, and when that is banned, instead those election offices contract with private parties then, to conduct the election… America’s been kicked out of the counting room, nonprofits and billionaires have been invited in,” he explained.

“[T]he most important thing in the elections [is] transparency, and we do not have transparent elections anymore. Ballots are managed off-site, they’re verified off-site, private companies are involved, and because of that America has less faith in its elections,” he concluded.

Far Left Group Creates ‘Database of Election Deniers’ in Public Intimidation Attempt.

Public Wise, a left-wing “voting rights” organization, has created a database that tracks Arizona officials that the group claims are “election deniers” in a clear attempt to intimidate citizens from questioning election inconsistencies or voter fraud.

Dubbed the “Election Threat Index,” it claims 50 percent of Arizona residents are represented by state legislators who Public Wise brand election deniers. The group says it plans to expand its communist-style lists into other states in the coming months, including Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Michigan, Florida, Wisconsin, and Nevada.

“The Election Threat Index is designed to identify local and state level officials, examine how their actions in office impact democracy, and work with grassroots partners to hold these individuals accountable, combat their attempts at voter suppression and elect pro-democracy candidates,” Public Wise said in a press release on Friday.

This is the group’s second project, designed to publicly target ideological opponents. Public Wise previously launched the  “Insurrection Index,” which the group says is “an online database identifying all individuals and organizations in a position of public trust who participated, planned or promoted January 6th.”

“Our democracy doesn’t begin or end in Congress or in the White House; its fate will be determined in our communities, by our school boards, our state representatives, our sheriffs. The Election Threat Index is designed to identify these officials and understand the impact election deniers have on our right to vote and the future of our democracy. The next phase of the election denier movement is here and we’re fighting back to protect our democracy and our fundamental freedoms,” Public Wise Executive Director Christina Baal-Owens said in a statement.

1 in 3 Say Biden is ‘Illegitimate’ President, Including 1 in 10 Dems & 70% of Republicans.

New data suggests that Americans are increasingly questioning the legitimacy of Joe Biden’s presidential election victory in 2020. The backlash against Biden comes as Democrats step up efforts to remove former President Donald Trump from 2024 primary and general election ballots over accusations that he orchestrated an ‘insurrection’ on January 6th, 2021.

The new data is obviously bad news for Biden, as concerns over his legitimacy have increased across the board amongst Republicans, Democrats, and Independents when compared to the same Washington Post/University of Maryland poll from 2022. Belief in Biden’s legitimacy fell by nearly 10 points among adult Americans between 2022 and 2023, with just over 60 percent saying he is the legitimate president in 2023, compared to nearly 70 percent in 2022.

Among Republicans, belief in the legitimacy of the 2020 election – and Biden’s victory – fell from 40 percent to just over 30-percent. And among Democrats, 10 percent now say Biden is an illegitimate president – compared to just five percent in 2022.

Voters have increasingly turned on the Biden government over its handling of the unchecked flow of illegal immigrants at the U.S. southern border, a sluggish economy, and concerns about him abusing office to financially enrich his family. Perhaps most concerning for Biden is the erosion of support among young Americans. The polling data reveals American youth are less likely to believe Biden is a legitimate president than older Americans.

America’s Mayor Rudy Giuliani Ordered To Pay ‘Absurd’ $148 Million To Georgia Election Workers.

Former federal prosecutor and New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani has been ordered pay two Georgia election workers $148 million. In August, a federal judge ruled Giuliani had defamed Ruby Freeman and Wandrea “Shaye” Moss after claiming they had engaged in a ballot fraud scheme in Fulton County, Georgia during the 2020 presidential election.

The jury’s financial judgement far surpassed the total damages claimed by Freeman and Moss, which were $23.9 million and $24.7 million respectively. Freeman was awarded $16,171,000 as compensation for the defamation charge, while Moss was awarded 16,998,000. An additional $20 million was awarded to each in compensation for emotional distress, while $75 million was awarded to both as punitive damages.

“Very little I can say right now,” Guiliani told press outside the U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C on Friday, adding: “The absurdity of the number underscores the absurdity of the entire proceedings.” The former New York City Mayor called the threats made against Freeman and Moss “abominable” and “deplorable”, but insisted: “The comments they received, I had nothing to do with.” Giuliani said he intends to appeal and may even move for a new trial.

Giuliani – along with former President Donald Trump and 17 others – were indicted in Fulton County this summer.

DATA: Near 20% Of 2020 Mail-In Voters Admit To Fraud, 1 in 10 Say They Were Offered Cash or ‘Reward’ for Ballot.

A huge number of voters who mailed in their ballot during the 2020 election have admitted to committing some type of voter fraud, according to stunning new data from Rasmussen.

  • Over 20 percent of respondents admitted to filing out a ballot for a friend or family member;
  • 17 percent said they signed someone else’s ballot with-or-without their permission;
  • Another 17 percent said they voted in a state where they are no-longer a permanent resident;
  • A stunning 1 in 10 respondents said they were offered “pay” or a “reward” for voting in 2020.

The admissions of voter fraud are especially concerning since the 2020 election saw a record-high number of mail-in ballots cast. The U.S. Census Bureau says 43 percent of voters cast their ballot by mail – more than double the number in 2016. Republicans have argued the relaxed election regulations made widespread and systemic acts of voter fraud easier, undermining the integrity of the 2020 results.

In response to accusations the election was swung to Democrats through voter fraud, President Joe Biden has stated, “…the 2020 election was the most scrutinized election ever in American history… No other election has ever been held under such scrutiny and such high standards.” Likewise, officials in the Biden government have repeatedly claimed 2020 was the most secure election ever.

In November, three Democrat candidates running in municipal elections were arrested on accusations of voter fraud, with one candidate allegedly offering $10 bribes for votes. The National Pulse reported earlier summer Michigan law enforcement raided a Democrat-linked consulting group as part of an ongoing investigation into allegations of systemic voter fraud in several localities.

California State Bar Judge Finds Trump Lawyer Eastman ‘Culpable’ for Advice on 2020 Election Fraud.

The California State Bar Court has found Professor John Eastman, a former legal adviser to Donald Trump, preliminarily culpable of 11 charges related to advice he gave the former president on the 2020 election, and the steps he could take to dispute the result.

Eastman was accused of counts including “failure to support the Constitution and laws of the United States” and “moral turpitude” for advising President Trump that Vice President Mike Pence could, in his role as President of the Senate, decline to certify the 2020 election results in states where fraud was suspected, handing them back to their legislatures for further examination.

The State Bar of California moved to strip Eastman of his law license for these supposed offenses, and Judge Yvette Roland has issued “a preliminary finding of culpability,” with the hearing now considering supposedly aggravating factors in his actions.

The State Bar says it “intends to submit evidence of harm flowing from false claims that 2020 presidential election was ‘stolen’ and effected by outcome-determinative fraud, including harassment of specific election officials and undermined public trust in election results and the legitimacy of democratic institutions.”

Eastman, for his part, insists the proceedings against him undermine both his First Amendment rights and attorney-client privilege. He also says the evidence the Bar has presented has only strengthened his belief that changes to the conduct of the 2020 election were made without the necessary legislative approval, and the resulting “illegality opened the door to fraud”.

Speaker Johnson Hires Pfizer, Big Pharma Lobbyist.

Newly elected Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) has begun to fill critical positions in his leadership staff with former Republican Study Committee executive director Dan Ziegler tapped to serve as the Speaker’s policy director. While Ziegler’s tenure on Capitol Hill was fairly mundane, his post-Hill lobbying work will surely concern amongst conservatives.

Zielger, most recently a principal at the law firm and lobbyist group Williams and Jensen, has represented a bevy of bio-tech and pharmaceutical companies. Some of his most recognizable clients include the bio-tech firm Amgen, Pfizer, Eli Lilly, Merck, Ozempic maker Novo Nordisk, and PhRMA – the major pharmaceutical industry trade group. The lobbying work on behalf of Pfizer and PhRMA are especially concerning given the industry connections to the Democrat Party and anti-Trump, globalist causes.

Two months ago, Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla appeared at the Clinton Foundation’s “Clinton Global Initiative” alongside former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, U.S. Secretary of the Interior Deb Haaland, and California Governor Gavin Newsom. The annual conference serves as a major spring-board for globalist policy initiatives aimed to “implement solutions to the world’s most pressing challenges, including climate change, inclusive economic growth, and health equity.”

Last year, Pfizer sponsored the Atlantic magazine festival in Washington, D.C. which featured a whose-who of globalist movers-and-shakers. COVID-19 obsessed Dr. Anthony Fauci appeared alongside Ibram X. Kendi, former White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain, and Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen. Among the subjects discussed at the event were critical race theory, diversity, Ukraine, censorship, climate change, and centralizing healthcare and pandemic response control. Bourla was among over 150 multinational corporate leaders to sign a statement demanding evidence of election fraud during the 2020 presidential election be ignored and Joe Biden be installed as President.

Federal election records show Zielger contributed $1,000 to Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’s 2024 presidential campaign.

Disputed ABC Report Claims Ex-Trump Chief of Staff Mark Meadows Granted Immunity, Cooperating With Jack Smith.

ABC News reported Monday evening that Mark Meadows, former Chief of Staff to President Donald Trump, has been granted immunity by the Department of Justice (DOJ) in exchange for testimony given to special counsel Jack Smith.

The claim, however, has been disputed by Meadows’s lawyer, George Terwilliger, who told CBS: “I told ABC that their story was largely inaccurate. People will have to judge for themselves the decision to run it anyway.”

According to ABC reports, Meadows has spoken with Smith and his team of DOJ prosecutors on at least three occasions this year. Meadows has reportedly told DOJ prosecutors that Trump was being “dishonest” when he initially claimed to have won the 2020 election. “Obviously we didn’t win,” Meadows is alleged to have told Smith and his team.

DOJ special counsel Jack Smith’s team is said to be especially interested in claims made by Meadows in a book he published and whether he still believes, or ever believed, that the 2020 presidential election was stolen. ABC News reports Meadows told Smith that despite what he wrote in his book, he does not believe there was any fraud in 2020. Meadows claims he privately informed Trump the allegations of fraud made by Rudy Giuliani were unfounded and untrue.

While the news of Meadows’s testimony appears to come as a blow to former President Donald Trump’s defense in his federal prosecution in Washington, D.C., Meadows has thus far not corroborated a key accusations made by Smith and the DOJ. Meadows is said to have been specifically asked by investigators if Trump ever acknowledged to him that he lost the election. Meadows replied he had never heard Trump say he had lost.

The accusation that former President Trump sought to knowingly defraud the United States – i.e. that he knew he lost the election but said otherwise – is one of the most critical pieces of Smith’s prosecution. So far, Smith has been unable to produce any evidence that Trump believed anything other than that he had won the 2020 presidential election.
