Trump rioter from Queens arrested.


NYC man accused of shoving officer off ledge during Capitol riot

excerpt:

"A Queens man was arrested for allegedly fighting officers and even shoving one over a ledge during the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, officials announced Wednesday.

Ralph Joseph Celentano III was allegedly caught on video on the west terrace of the US Capitol pushing an officer “from behind in a ‘football-type tackle,'” causing him to fall from a ledge onto the terrace below, according to court papers filed with a criminal complaint.

The officer — an Iraq war veteran — says he feared for his safety amid the mob of protesters, thinking to himself, “I didn’t survive a war to go out like this,” the court documents claim.

Celentano allegedly got into “several physical altercations” with other law enforcement officers, the court papers allege.

The 54-year-old Broad Channel man was charged by Washington, DC, federal prosecutors with assaulting, resisting or impeding officers, civil disorder, engaging in physical violence in a restricted building or grounds and related crimes."

 

Texas State Bar refers Sidney Powell to judge for discipline over efforts to overturn election

excerpt:

"The Texas State Bar this week called for disciplinary action against former Trump campaign lawyer Sidney Powell for her role in attempting to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election.

The state bar's Commission for Lawyer Discipline issued a complaint, which was made public on Tuesday, stating that lawsuits Powell filed contesting the results of the election were not practical, according to Reuters.

"Respondent (Powell) had no reasonable basis to believe the lawsuits she filed were not frivolous," the complaint reportedly stated.

It also accused Powell of failing to practice due diligence before bringing the claims to court, which is a violation of a federal ethics rule, the news outlet noted.

Powell pushed back on those assertions, calling the Texas State Bar's decision "poor," according to Reuters."

 

Trump rioter from Georgia pleads guilty.


Dawsonville man pleads guilty in Jan. 6 charge

excerpt:

"Dawsonville resident Benjamin Harry Torre looked around the U.S. Capitol office of Oregon Democratic Sen. Jeff Merkley on Jan. 6, 2021, snapping some photos and commenting to people around him about the “wild” events of the day.

Just a few minutes earlier, Torre had been among the hundreds of pro-Trump rioters pushing their way into the Capitol building. Torre, who had come to Washington, D.C., with his family to attend the “Stop the Steal” rally that day, entered the Capitol through a broken window.

On Wednesday, Torre, 24, pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of illegally demonstrating in the Capitol. He faces a possible six-month prison sentence and fines of up to $5,000 when U.S. District Judge Rudolph Contreras imposes sentence in July."

'Your names will live in shame forever!' Steve Bannon and Mike Lindell melt down over Tina Peters arrest

excerpt:

"Steve Bannon and MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell on Wednesday had an epic meltdown over the arrest and indictment of MAGA Colorado election clerk Tina Peters, who was charged with ten counts related to an investigation into election equipment tampering.

While appearing on Bannon's "War Room" podcast, Lindell raged at the Colorado judge who set Peters's bail so high that she will now have to spend at least one night in jail.

"Tina Peters is a Gold Star mother!" Lindell fumed. "She's never broken a law in her life, she's never spent one minute in jail!"

Bannon concurred with Lindell's assessment and, if anything, appeared even more angry.

"The people who did this: Your names will live in shame forever!" he thundered. "And we're going to make sure they do! To have a Gold Star mother have to spend the night in jail because of her service as a public servant, and election that we're going to prove was stolen... It's revolting!""

 

Tine Peters turned herself in to authorities.


Colorado county clerk turns herself in after arrest warrant with a $500,000 cash-only bond was issued

excerpt:

"MESA COUNTY, Colo. (KKTV/AP) - A grand jury in Colorado indicted a county election clerk who sowed doubt about the 2020 presidential election.

The indictment alleges Mesa County Clerk and Recorder Tina Peters was part of a “deceptive scheme” to breach voting system technology that is used across the country. Over the past year, Peters has appeared onstage with supporters of former President Donald Trump who made false claims that the 2020 presidential election was stolen.

11 News confirmed in February that Peters was arrested and released by police. The arrest affidavit can be viewed below this article.

Counts include attempting to influence a public servant, criminal impersonation and first-degree official misconduct. Also facing charges in the case is Deputy Clerk Belinda Knisley.

Wednesday afternoon, Peters reportedly turned herself in. You can read the warrant issued for her arrest at the bottom of this article."

 

Tina Peters says she is running for secretary of state of Colorado.

 

Summaries of criminal charges against Peters and her deputy, Knisley, issued by a county grand jury.

excerpt:

"Peters is being charged with three counts of attempting to influence a public servant, one count of conspiracy to commit attempting to influence a public servant, criminal impersonation, conspiracy to commit criminal impersonation, identify theft, first-degree official misconduct, violation of duty, and failing to comply with the rules of the Secretary of State.

Knisley is charged with three counts of attempting to influence a public servant, one count of conspiracy to commit attempting to influence a public servant, violation of duty, and failing to comply with the rules of the Secretary of State."

 

The case against her is strong, so the only place she'll be running to is the prison commissary or to the canteen for snacks

 

The indictment is from a county grand jury. This is separate from state and federal investigations of Tina Peters that are currently being conducted.

 

Ex-Trump national security advisor John Bolton says 'Putin saw Trump doing a lot of his work for him,' so he chose not to invade Ukraine

excerpt:

"I think one of the reasons that Putin did not move during Trump's term in office was he saw the president's hostility of NATO. It was widely reported in American media," Bolton said during an interview with SiriusXM's Julie Mason. "And to Putin's mind, it's a binary proposition: a weaker NATO is a stronger Russia."

Bolton went on, "Putin saw Trump doing a lot of his work for him, and thought, maybe in a second term, Trump would make good on his desire to get out of NATO, and then it would just ease Putin's path just that much more."

Trump undermined NATO during his time in office. In 2018, he privately discussed withdrawing the United States from the alliance, raising concerns among national security officials.

Garrabrants or anyone else can expect to have trouble with Trump repaying loans.

Trump Sees Act of God in Recession (Published 2008)

excerpt:

"Rather than have to pay the $40 million, Mr. Trump thinks the bank should pay him $3 billion for undermining the project and damaging his reputation.

He points to a “force majeure” clause in the lending agreement that allows the borrower to delay completion of the building if construction is hampered by such things as riots, floods or strikes. That clause has a catch-all section covering “any other event or circumstance not within the reasonable control of the borrower,” and Mr. Trump figures that lets him out, even though construction is continuing.

“Would you consider the biggest depression we have had in this country since 1929 to be such an event? I would,” he said in an interview. “A depression is not within the control of the borrower.”"

Trump Sees Act of God in Recession (Published 2008)

excerpt:

"The Friday after Thanksgiving was not a really good one for Mr. Trump. Trump Entertainment Resorts, the casino company, announced it would miss an interest payment on its bonds, raising the likelihood of a third bankruptcy. Most of the shares are publicly owned, having been distributed to creditors in the last bankruptcy. They have fallen from a peak of $23.80 two years ago to 24 cents on Thursday.""

 

Trump sees an act of God as a reason for him not having to pay others money he owes, but not for other people who owe him money.

 

Donald Trump sued Deutsche Bank to get out of $40 million debt over Chicago property two years after rooting for housing collapse

excerpt:

"When the New York Times asked him in 2008 whether he'd give people who bought his Chicago condos the same out he was asking for from the courts, Trump said no. "They don't have a force majeure clause," he argued."

 

It's a moot point that Trump is making about owners of his condo not having a force majeure clause. He didn't win anything in the courts based on a force majeure clause when he sued his lender.

Trump doesn't like it if people who owe him money use the same tactics as he does to not pay.
