Julie Kelly 🇺🇸 @julie_kelly2 NEW: Judge Cannon officially vacates May 20 trial date, says setting a new date with so many outstanding matters would be “imprudent.”

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis let it be known Monday that he won’t support legislation in the Sunshine State that would put taxpayers on the hook for former President Donald Trump’s legal bills. In response to a Politico report noting that “some Florida Republicans” are backing a measure that could grant as much as $5 million to the 77-year-old GOP presidential primary front-runner, DeSantis tweeted: “But not the Florida Republican who wields the veto pen…” The proposal, filed by state Sen. Ileana Garcia (R-Miami), would set aside state funds for legal fees incurred as a result of criminal charges brought by...

A highly classified binder of documents related to 2016 Russian election interference disappeared from the White House during former President Donald Trump's final days in office. CNN first reported Friday on the mystery, which remains unsolved nearly three years after Trump left office. The binder contained raw intelligence the U.S. and its NATO allies collected to inform the government's assessment that Russian President Vladimir Putin wanted Trump to win the 2016 presidential election over Democrat Hillary Clinton.

As soon as the federal indictment of President Trump was unsealed, we were treated to stories featuring photos of “boxes of documents” stored in various rooms at Mar-a-Lago — including boxes in places like on the stage in the White and Gold Ballroom, and even in a bathroom: Like the photos from the raid showing classified documents splayed out on the floor, these photos created a certain impression with the public. Just look at how many boxes there are! Look where they were put! Dozens of boxes all over the place, where anyone could get them. But as Newsmax host...

Thirty-seven B.S. charges against former President Trump. Thirty-seven! But there isn’t a single syllable in the forty-nine page indictment against Trump about a single document being altered or destroyed. Just another political hamstringing of the leading Republican candidate in the 2024 election. An election which is now tainted, and for all intents and purposes, has been interfered with. The Democrats like to say January 6th was an insurrection. According to Mark, THIS is the insurrection. Who’s with Mark on this?

Trump-appointed U.S. District Court Judge Aileen Cannon will reportedly preside over former President Donald Trump’s second indictment, the “Boxes Hoax” case. The summons sent to Trump on Thursday listed Judge Cannon on the summons, people familiar with the summons told the Guardian. ABC News and CNN confirmed the Guardian‘s reporting. Cannon granted Trump a special master during the investigation last year. Breitbart News reported that some left-wing scholars and legal experts were furious, lashing out against Judge Cannon, claiming that she acted out of political motives and was even an accomplice to “obstruction of justice.”

STATEMENT FROM DONALD J. TRUMP, THE 45TH PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATESWe are watching our Republic DIE before our very eyes.The Biden-appointed Special Counsel has INDICTED me in yet another witch hunt regarding documents that I had the RIGHT to declassify as President of the United States.This witch hunt began when the FBI RAIDED my home and then staged it to look like a made-for-TV crime scene with police sirens and flashing red and blue lights.This is nothing but a disgusting act of Election Interference by the ruling party to ELIMINATE its opposition and amass total control over our...

BREAKING: Donald Trump to be indicted, will appear in court on Tuesday:

I want to get into what's happening to Donald Trump here folks, I also want to make something clear. That the story on Mark Meadows trying to cut a deal against Trump is a flat out lie. It is a flat out lie. So you are getting a lot of these leaks. Now, people are forced to testify under penalty of inprisonment and things of that sort, but in terms of him and his lawyers trying to cut a deal with the Special Counsel, that's a lie. And that's been reported and so the reporting is a lie. And I...

Former President Donald Trump denied reports that U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) prosecutors informed him he is facing an imminent indictment stemming from Special Counsel Jack Smith’s investigation into his handling of White House documents. On Wednesday, Just the News’s John Solomon reported that federal prosecutors notified Trump that “He is a criminal target and likely to be indicted imminently in a probe into alleged classified documents.” However, Trump told New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman that Solomon’s report was “not true.” “Trump tells me minutes ago he has NOT been told he’s getting indicted, when contacted. ‘It’s not true,’...

Federal investigators are asking witnesses whether former President Donald Trump showed off to aides and visitors a map he took with him when he left office that contains sensitive intelligence information, four people with knowledge of the matter said. The map has been just one focus of the broad Justice Department investigation into Trump’s handling of classified documents after he departed the White House. The nature of the map and the information it contained is not clear. But investigators have questioned a number of witnesses about it, according to the people with knowledge of the matter, as the special counsel...
