This is probably the first time a U.S presidential candidate has been defeated in a state presidential primary by an unlisted rival. However, that’s what happened in Nevada when Nikki Haley ran unopposed as listed on the Nevada primary ballot.
The Republican Nevada presidential primary was Tuesday; but the Republican Party of Nevada switched to maintain a primary caucus approach to selecting the candidate. The Caucus takes place on Thursday.
As an outcome of the process Nikki Haley was the only candidate on the primary ballot for Tuesday. Nikki Haley received 32.4% of the votes, while 61.2% of the republican primary voters selected “none of these candidates.”
(Bloomberg) — Nikki Haley suffered an embarrassing loss in the largely symbolic Republican Nevada presidential primary on Tuesday, while President Joe Biden secured an easy victory in the state’s Democratic vote.
No delegates were at stake and Haley didn’t campaign in Nevada, contending the dynamics gave former President Donald Trump an advantage. Nevertheless, the optics of her coming in second place to the “none of these candidates” option on the ballot represents the latest blow to her longshot challenge to Trump for the nomination.

Three judges from the Washington DC Circuit Court of Appeals have denied the immunity request from President Trump.
In a rather stark decision reached by the panel [SEE Ruling Here] “We have balanced former President Trump’s asserted interests in executive immunity against the vital public interests that favor allowing this prosecution to proceed,” the court wrote in its ruling Tuesday. “We conclude that the interest in criminal accountability, held by both the public and the Executive Branch, outweighs the potential risks of chilling Presidential action and permitting vexatious litigation.”
WASHINGTON – The judges put their decision on hold only until Monday to allow Trump to ask the Supreme Court to take up the immunity fight on an emergency basis. If he does so, the decision won’t take effect until the high court acts on his request, the appeals panel decreed. (read more)
The court essentially stayed its own ruling, pending a punt to the Supreme Court.
I have read the DC Court of Appeals decision stripping Trump of any immunity. In doing so, they are stripping judges and prosecutors of immunity as well for all you had to argue is they acted against their appointment and oath. Their statement of facts calls everyone on January 6th Trump’s “coconspirators,” and this is a plain declaration of guilt. They state the four charges against Trump, which are all conspiracy – the law of tyrants, for they need not prove that Trump did anything, is assumed to be indistinguishable from the protestors.
(1) conspiracy to defraud the United States by overturning the election results, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 371;
(2) conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding — i.e., the Congress’s certification of the electoral vote — in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1512(k);
(3) obstruction of, and attempt to obstruct, the certification of the electoral vote, in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 1512(c)(2), 2; and
(4) conspiracy against the rights of one or more persons to vote and to have their votes counted, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 241.
“At this stage of the prosecution, we assume that the allegations set forth in the Indictment are true.”
The Crime of Conspiracy has long been the law of tyrants. Maximinus I (235-238AD) used the Crime of Conspiracy, which is only a thought crime. It has been abandoned by most civilized countries – but not the United States for they never have to actually prove you did a crime. Conspiracy has been abandoned in Europe, Russia, and even China. Conspiracy is a vile crime itself, and it has been the favorite of tyrants for thousands of years. It allows the conviction of someone for a crime they did not commit, nor even attempted to commit but you claim they “intended” purely as a mental state to commit in the future. Maximinus I engaged in legal persecution. Thus, the crime of Conspiracy was the way to convict people you otherwise could not. There are three aspects to a crime in the United States where: anyone can be charged with conspiracy if the government desires.(1) committing the act,(2) attempting to commit the act, and then(3) there is Conspiracy which is claimed you have only “intended” to commit the act in your mind, which cannot be proven and typically requires extorting a confession by force.
Using Conspiracy, Maximinus I effectively tore the Roman economy apart at its seams. He charged a noted Senator by the name of Magnus with conspiracy against the emperor, found him guilty, executed him, and then arrested 4,000 others, claiming they conspired with him intending to depose him. He used this crime of conspiracy to execute them all, and that justified confiscating all their property as well.
Justice Robert Jackson wrote about Conspiracy in his concurring opinion in Krulewitch v. United States, 336 U.S. 440 (1949)
“This case illustrates a present drift in the federal law of conspiracy which warrants some further comment because it is characteristic of the long evolution of that elastic, sprawling and pervasive offense. Its history exemplifies the “tendency of a principle to expand itself to the limit of its logic.” The unavailing protest of courts against the growing habit to indict for conspiracy in lieu of prosecuting for the substantive offense itself…“
Virtually 95% of the people in prison are charged with conspiracy. I have seen a person charged with conspiracy to murder when someone asked him hey did you see Joe, yes, he is over there. They kill him, and then he is charged with conspiracy, for there is no need to even prove he knew what they wanted Joe for. Then, the government seeks the death penalty. The prosecutor quit because the kid was just 23 years old and had no prior record.
We have more people in prison than China – more than any other country. But that is raw numbers. China has 1.409 billion people, and the USA has 334 million. Divide that out, and the United States has five times the number of people in prison per capita than China. Russia has 143 million people. Yet all we hear is how ruthless China and Russia are because they are not free. When you look at who is in prison, the USA has the highest probability of going to prison than any other country. Obviously, Americans must be the most dishonest people in the world.
What is being done to Trump is the outrageous abuse of conspiracy, and that we are in such desperate need of legal reform in this country is not a joke. Perhaps the abuse hurled at Trump will eventually wake up America to how bad our legal system has become.
You have NO CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS whatsoever! Read the First Amendment. It states, “Congress shall make no law.” This is why Facebook, YouTube, and every other private organization can restrict your speech, for the First Amendment does NOT prevent them from de-banking you or de-platforming you; they can deny your free speech as they desire.
Trump has been PREDETERMINED to be guilty. There is no need for constitutional rights. They have already decided. Biden can take bribes, his son can sell influence, smoke crack in the White House, and he has thrown top secret documents in his garage. Nothing will ever be done to Biden, and in Congress, we have a uni party that will NEVER defend the people.
These judges are out of control. They think they are above the law because they are the law, and they never consider what they are doing to society, especially given the civil unrest that our computer has been projecting for the 2024 election. This does not look good, and now the Senate Republicans have stripped Texas of all its rights in the $118 billion gift to Zelensky. They have torn the Constitution into shreds, and we no longer have anyone left representing the people. God help us.

Exactly how bad is the “bipartisan” legislation, which should be called, ‘the border insecurity in exchange for Ukraine money act’? The bill is so bad, and makes things so much worse, that James Lankford may end up voting against his own legislative creation.
Making matters worse, Mitch McConnell is now pretending the entire fiasco wasn’t his idea, further leaving James Lankford out to dry on his own.
(Politico) – […] Several members of GOP leadership came out against the legislation in the past 24 hours, further boxing in Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell. The Kentucky Republican, who supports the agreement linking border policy changes with aid to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan, called Monday’s meeting an “interesting discussion.”
Inside the room, McConnell told Republicans that if they didn’t like the direction that the bill is going, they should vote against moving forward this week, according to two people briefed on the meeting who were granted anonymity to speak candidly.
According to two attendees, McConnell did not forcefully whip for or against the bill. He instead discussed the specific policies and politics of the legislation, which is opposed by Speaker Mike Johnson and former President Donald Trump.
Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.), who struck the deal, even suggested he might vote against moving forward if his colleagues weren’t ready to move.“That’s not voting against the bill,” Lankford said of voting to filibuster the bill from coming to the floor. “So that’s not the final passage. That’s the beginning point.” (read more)

The Senate immigration bill, aka border security bill, is only designed as the cover for the Senate to send $60 billion more to Ukraine. The Ukraine money is the priority (corps/lobbyists) the border “security” bill is the technique to create and spend it.
That said, they certainly would not want to let a created and purposeful border crisis go to waste, and they didn’t. The latest version of the Senate Immigration Reform Bill is now public [SEE HERE]. The proposed Senate border security bill provisions are actually worse than existing non-secure border provisions.
America First Legal did a great job hitting on the top-line issues created by this new bill. In many ways, multiple ways, this supplemental “border security” bill makes things worse. The bill codifies into law the loopholes currently being used to increase the number of illegal aliens. By this design the bill makes things worse.
