Jack Smith, the Michael Jordan of losing at the Supreme Court. Remember, he went, you know, aid no overturn when he tried to prosecute the Virginia governor back in the day as well. So he's no, you know, uh, these, these lots of Supreme Court many times before. But I think your point here is right. Well, Lisa was saying this is about stopping Donald Trump. They're trying to take him off the ballot. They have taken him off the ballot in Colorado, trying to do it in a dozen other states, you know, they didn't even announce this. Let's let's remember this. Donald Trump announced his reelection in November of 2022. Three days later, special counsel is put here. They wait 30 months to bring charges against him. Now they want to fast track bypass the appeals court and the Supreme Court saw right through.

But the justices also don't like it, Griffin. You know, somebody tries to butt to the front of the line and rob them the justices of meaningful legal judgment. And you know, here the special counsel really offered no compelling reason, except obviously wants a trial of Trump in the middle of a presidential campaign, I think to damage him to the benefit of Democrats and Joe Biden. And perhaps the justices saw this for what it was, election interference. You know, Jack Smith, the special counsel keeps insisting Trump should be treated like everybody else, all right, and then appeal the case like everyone else.

>> So big news for former President Trump as the Supreme Court declines to speed up the ruling on Jack Smith's immunity case against him. Trump taking the truth social to celebrate the court's decision saying in part, crooked Joe Biden and his henchmen waited three years to bring the sham case. And now they've tried and failed to rush this witch hunt through the courts. So here to react is Fox News contributor and former counselor to President Trump, Kellyanne Conway. Good morning Kellyanne, Merry Christmas to you. Glad to have you with us. >> Good morning Will. >> I'm really fascinated to hear your analysis of this. Every time one of these indictments or one of these rushes to the courts seems to have been pushed by Democrats, it's resulted in a polling bump for Donald Trump. They seem to be banking though Kellyanne on this idea that if they can just get a conviction before election season, that'll flip the polling. Do you believe that's true if one of these four criminal cases did come back in time with a guilty verdict for Donald Trump and he was somehow convicted, set aside the likelihood. But if that did happen, would it flip the polling Kellyanne? >> It wouldn't flip the polling well and thanks for having a Merry Christmas to you and yours and your co-host. It wouldn't flip the polling. You see the Reuters poll when asked what a conviction on any of the criminal counts make you vote for against Donald Trump. A slim majority say they'd vote against him. But when you add Biden to the equation as the Wall Street Journal poll did, Trump's actually beating Biden 46 to 45 if he were to be convicted. Then they asked if Joe Biden were to be impeached, would you vote for Trump or Biden? And the Wall Street Journal poll found that Trump is beating Biden by 5 points 46 to 41. So we can't forget, none of this is in a vacuum. You don't go into the ballot box and it says Trump or not Trump. It says Trump versus Joe Biden. And just as we knew in 2016, and I said many times then I'll say again, you have to set aside everything you think about that individual. And in this case, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris' manmade crisis of an administration that has created nothing but hurt and pain domestically at our border, in our communities, our big cities, in your grocery cart, at the gas pump, you name it, and abroad now. We can potentially, people know this, it's a binary choice. It is not a referendum just on Biden. It is a choice between your life with Donald Trump and your life with Joe Biden. Look, this guy, Joe Biden, was vice president for eight years, Will. He was the chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee. I would think a half a century in Washington would at least buy us a little grace and respect around the globe. Instead, we may have one foreign policy entanglement in national security disaster per year of the Biden administration, Afghanistan 2021, Ukraine 2022, Israel 2023. And it could be Taiwan 2020, 2024. President Xi Jinping has the guts to say to Joe Biden's face, P.S., I'm going to reunify. The sin in them for that is invade Taiwan. Just telling you, Joe. So but the other thing is the Biden people have put way too much into the judicial system to try to keep Joe Biden there for a second term. I have a better idea. Why not just pass better policies? If you have a really good record as president, chances are you'll be reelected and they're just not. They can't beat him on policy. It's too late for that, though. Through the judicial system. To your point, though, it's too late. It's too late to change your policy. That's why Trump's ahead. That's why Trump's ahead. So here's what I want to ask you. So that's why. OK, if the legal if law fair doesn't work, that's that that seems to be plan number one law fair. And again, the goal is not to elect Joe Biden. It is to stop Donald Trump. I think they've made that clear. So if law fair isn't going to work in time and then the polling is, as you've laid out and we've seen that Joe Biden can't beat Donald Trump again, if the plan is to stop Donald Trump, when do they move to the option, remove Joe Biden, like find someone else who can beat Donald Trump? Well, speaking of running out of time, I think that's too little too late. They should have done that. If I were a Democrat, I would have gotten rid of Biden and Harris, rolled the dice well and said, we'll probably lose in 2024, but we'll save the party and we'll restore the party that was once known for youth and energy and the future. They had JFK and Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, even Jimmy Carter was in his fifties when he in his early fifties when he was elected to the White House. Now they turn around and they get these establishment Loch Ness monster creatures of the Steve C. Swamp like Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden to lead the party and look where we are. But I think it's too little too late. I think some Democrats like Gavin Newsom would rather this ticket just bleed out. Well, we'll see. I think Joe Biden's bigger play is to have all these third party candidates to help him the way Ross Perot helped Bill Clinton say in 1992. So Perot got zero electoral votes, but he got 19% of the popular vote. Bill Clinton got 68.8% of the electoral votes and only 45% of the popular vote. That would be his play. The problem is he's not the challenger here. He's the incumbent and Perot really helped Bill Clinton and hurt the incumbent. And right now it looks like third party's pulled from Biden, not Trump. So they'd have to find the candidate that would pull from Trump. There you go. There you go. They need to and they haven't yet, but there are lots of billionaires out there, 1100 or so in this country. Will I read that? I mean, if somebody can say I'm worth 7 billion, why not spend one seventh without having fun in the presidential race and the consultants, you know, I call it staff infection. They'll go and take their half a billion and embarrass that person the way Bloomberg's people did. But look, I think if you're Joe Biden, you stick to plan A. Plan A is what you just said. Get Trump through the legal system, and they believe that in the 91 counts, if he's convicted on one game over, if they can send the president to jail, God forbid, for one night, that's enough for them. But it's not going to work, and it's not going to work for another reason. Joe Biden probably won't want to debate Donald Trump. We don't even know if Joe Biden can stand still at a podium for 90 minutes. We have no evidence of that, let alone being able to defend this horrible record. So I think that it's Donald Trump who's saying, look, I want to debate him. Here's what I would do to Iran. Here's what I would do with China. Here's what I would do in the Middle East. I think Joe Biden, they're counting on one of these cases being accelerated, being able to convict the president and saying to people, you don't want a president that's being convicted of a criminal charge. We've never had that in history. I just don't think it's going to be enough. People feel so desperate. Last point. We as voters, we talk about and even complain about what offends us. We vote according to what affects us, and that's really the difference here. People are going to be very self-interested, as well they should be, as voters. That's why Trump's ahead in every swing state.

A big news for President Trump last night as the Supreme Court declines to speed up the ruling on Jack Smith's immunity case against him, 45 taking to Truth Social to celebrate the court's decision, saying in part, "Crooked Joe Biden and his henchmen waited three years to bring this sham case, and now they have tried and failed to rush this witch hunt through the courts." Here to break it all down, let's bring in Fox News legal analyst Greg Jarrett. Nobody better to talk about this, Greg, and I want to get right to it because it seemed significant to me that the High Court wasted no time in a single sentence with no descents saying no. Go with the regular appellate process. We're not taking this. What's your read? Yeah, it was always, Griff, highly unlikely that the Supreme Court would take the case at this juncture because it's premature. The justices want to hear first from the appellate court, the DC Circuit. That's the normal process, and for good reason. The intermediate court refines the issues and scrutinizes what is essentially a novel legal theory here of immunity. It's untested. So their opinions are quite valuable to the Supreme Court. The justices also don't like it, Griff, when somebody tries to butt to the front of the line and rob them, the justices of meaningful legal judgment, and here the special counsel really offered no compelling reason, except obviously wants a trial of Trump in the middle of a presidential campaign, I think, to damage him to the benefit of Democrats and Joe Biden, and perhaps the justices saw this for what it was, election interference. Jack Smith, the special counsel, keeps insisting Trump should be treated like everybody else all right, and then appeal the case like everyone else. Well, that's a great point, Greg, and it seems to me that what ultimately had the court take in it, what Jack Smith either intentionally or not would have accomplished, is to show that the court can be bullied and feel political pressure when they are the institution that should be independent. Yes, and the Supreme Court, Griff, doesn't like such antics or imaginations. Eventually, they may decide Trump's immunity argument. It is, I think, a credible one, that he acted consistent with his sworn duty to uphold and enforce all laws, and that includes ensuring free and fair elections. If he actually suspected there was fraud or faulty vote counting, well, he's entitled to pursue challenges under the law and even contest the electors, which Democrats obviously did in prior elections. Somehow, it's okay for them to do it, but not a Republican president. Well, and Greg, in just 30 seconds I got left, I want to ask you, because if it goes through the appellate process, it could still end up in the Supreme Court. Do you think that this could end up having implications on future presidents? Oh, I think it's a precedent-setting case, as to whether a president enjoys absolute immunity, limited immunity. What is the conduct in the course and scope of presidential duties? These are all open issues that the U.S. Supreme Court has never directly decided. The Supreme Court doesn't like to take political cases. In the end, they may be forced to. We'll wait and see.

When it comes to the question of whether the man who tried to end American democracy should face trial before voters decide if they Want to elect him to finish what he started? It appears for now the magazine court just doesn't appear to be in much of a rush But today in the year 2023 this Supreme Court has decided the no rush to judgment argument is good enough for them Not why would the special counsel want to move so fast? But why would the former president not want to resolve this so fast in the heat of a presidential election and to your point? He's trying to delay and trying to stop. That's a thorough investigation into him The media melting down after the Supreme Court rejected Jack Smith's request to hear Trump's immunity dispute It's a move that will likely delay his trial here to react Fox News contributor Joe Concha, Joe That's the first time I've seen some of that reaction I didn't know that we had moved toward the MAGA Supreme Court and such an open antipathy towards due process Come on. Just hurry up. Let's get on with this Isn't that amazing? I mean during that montage the MAGA Supreme Court I hadn't heard that one before and they want a rush to judgment in this situation And by the way MAGA Supreme Court as if Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh Amy Coney Barron aren't immensely qualified for that job And look the question is why is Jack Smith trying to fast food this process so urgently guys I mean unless of course he's trying to directly impact and interfere with the presidential election and you read and listen to sane and sober legal analysts and scholars like Jonathan Turley and they make a very simple argument that Jack Smith does not have the right to deny due process because he says so we can't simply demand the Supreme Court to put everything else aside and hear his case and it's very clear right now to many Americans even independents and some Democrats that the Democratic Party is in a full-blown panic because they have an 81 year old president that is Wants to seek reelection and is in the worst position of any president seeking reelection in the modern era. He's on a timeline Joe He's Jack Smith is on a timeline He needs to hurry this up because of that March trial start date And it's interesting you raised that because the tip for the Supreme Court to take case You have to have at least four and say yes, we'll do it now. There's three liberals on the court That means all six conservatives said no. Thanks. We're not gonna give in to this political badgering. Is that you read of it? That's exactly what we see here And now the argument will be and just like with Colorado guys, right because that's gonna go to the Supreme Court as well And and they will make a decision on that before the ballot Becomes binding on January 5th and they're gonna rule most likely maybe even 9-0 Hopefully that Donald Trump should be back on the ballot in Colorado And if it does happen that way where it's 6-3 for example and only conservatives vote that way You'll see the MSNBC's and CNN's and New York Times is of the world saying that wow This is a weaponized court only there to support Donald Trump So the hope here is that that comes back Nine to zero as far as putting Donald Trump back on the ballot in Colorado this way It strips away any political bias that we may hear or see from the court system or more importantly the media That covers it. Well, and Joe Jack Smith and the DOJ really they continue to intervene They're trying everything they can because Biden is not doing well And they're worried about the 2024 election, but at what point do we say that hey, you know This is a violation of the Hatch Act by it's completely forgoing due process Like why don't they just allow it is they allow it to happen at the ballots like let Americans decide who they want for president Exactly Nicole. We have an election. That's less than 11 months away at this point if you don't want Donald Trump to be president then fine go to the ballot box and make your voice be heard if you want him to Be president then do the same but give Americans the choice to vote for who they believe should be president. Don't let the courts come in here and decide I mean, could you imagine if the Colorado ruling holds up then in states that matter states that decide elections Wisconsin, Michigan, Nevada, I could go down the line if he's pulled off the ballot there What's this country gonna look like what will be 30 reaction particularly with Trump in the lead right now? There's 31 section 3 litigation cases out there right now 31 efforts to remove him for being an insurrectionist a charge for which he's not been officially charged in any of his indictments Or obviously convicted now let Americans buy their voice censorship changing the voting manner Inditing him four times on criminal charge I mean just kind of go down the list of things that are done to ensure that the democracy doesn't choose Donald Trump you start What asking yourself? What's left? What's left on the list of things that they haven't done to stop Donald Trump?

Whenever I sarcastically insert the name Obama, Barak Hussein Obama, for Biden as an indication that others may actually be having a very big influence on running our country, which is what I'm saying, Ronda sanctimonious and his failing campaign apparatus, together with the Democrats' radical leftist information machine, which is a big one, they go wild saying, "Oh, Trump doesn't know who the President of the United States is. He must be cognitively impaired like Joe Biden is." No, I know both names very well, never mix them up, and know that they are destroying our country. Also, and as reported, I just took a cognitive test as part of my physical exam and I aced it. I also aced one taken a number of years ago in the White House. Biden should take one so we can determine why he wants to have open borders, no energy independence, a woke military, high inflation, no voter ID, men playing in women's sports, only electric cars and trucks that don't go very far and cost too much, a weaponized DOJ FBI, and so many other crazy things. I aced President Biden to go take a cognitive test because there's something wrong with you.

I don't want to terminate Obamacare. I want to replace it with much better health care, health care that's absolutely better than what you have right now and also cheaper to you. So that's what we're going to do. Obamacare has been a disaster from the day it was conceived. We would have had it terminated were it not for John McCain and a couple of others. But that didn't happen. So we're going to end up getting rid of Obamacare and replacing it with something much better and much less expensive to you. Thank you.

Crooked Joe Biden and the Democrats, despite the lessons recently learned in Germany and numerous other places, want to shut down all U.S. coal plants. This as China is building one giant coal plant a week. The USA death wish is on the march. We can't let this happen. We have to get rid of the green new scam. It's a total scam and it's killing our country. Thank you.

The most important poll released in the last 20 years came out stating that 20% of the mail-in ballots in the 2020 presidential election were rigged or defective. It was the Rasmussen poll, highly respected. That means that the election was a giant scam. You cannot have a fair and honest election as long as there are mail-in ballots involved. Cheating will always be prevalent. France and many other countries have stopped the madness. They got rid of their mail-in votes. The Republican Party must do something now. They have to work, they have to stick together, and they have to fight because the Democrats cheat. They cheat like nobody has ever cheated before. It's a disgrace.

My financial statements were extremely undervalued, as opposed to overvalued, which totally disproves and nullifies the New York State Attorney General's politically biased and motivated fake lawsuit against me. She said, "I will get Trump, I will get Trump." In other words, I am worth billions of dollars more than is shown on my very conservative financial statements, the exact opposite of what the AG Witch Hunt said. In addition to that, I have a 100% disclaimer and non-reliance clause right up front on page one, stating clearly that the user must do their own analysis and due diligence. That's what the bank stated they did in court. They didn't rely on the statement. If they did, that would be okay, but they have a non-disturbance clause. They have a non-reliance clause. They were paid in full, on time, on schedule. They loved me as a client. They said so. They got their money back. There were no victims, only success and only profits, and hopefully Judge Ngorin, who should have never had this non-jury trial, and should have never been allowed to go this far, or should have really dismissed it long ago, will show that the New York State judicial system is alive, respected, and well. Everyone's watching. Businesses don't want to move back into New York anymore. So I just say, God bless New York and God bless America.

Look, it is what it is, but isn't it unfair that I can be running such a great and successful campaign for President, beating everybody, leading in every poll against a corrupt and incompetent President, working so hard in a historic fight to save our nation? And I have to go through the additional burden of, at the same time, fighting my political opponents, many DOJ, Attorney General and District Attorney inspired non-meritorious lawsuits against me. This is a barrage like nothing has ever happened in this country. Nobody's ever seen anything like it. It's a third world country. It's a banana republic. Joe Biden and the thugs that surround him should never be allowed to get away with his evil act of election interference, which is all it is. He can't campaign, he can't put two sentences together, and all they're doing is trying to interfere in the election. Even today's Wall Street Journal editorial stated that, quote, "As we warned Mr. Smith, that's Deranged Jack Smith and A.G. Merrick Garland indicting Mr. Trump would thrust him into the middle of an election campaign, this and all of these lawsuits would have unintentional and perhaps damaging consequences. The wiser decision would have been to let the voters decide. That's been the way it's been for many, many decades. With all they're doing, this election is already on its way to being another rigged election, and we don't want that to happen."

Illegal immigration is poisoning the blood of our nation. They're coming from prisons, from mental institutions, from all over the world. Without borders and fair elections, you don't have a country. Make America great again. We must win in 2024. Or we will not have a nation. Thank you.

Our adversaries are using the crooked Joe Biden indictments of his political opponent, me, against us by strongly proclaiming that the United States is a corrupt and failing democracy. They are using it left and right. They are using it like never before. They are making us look very bad, making us look like a third world country or a banana republic. Thank you.

The United States has let the Middle East get totally out of control. Really bad things are happening. All easily within our power to stop. Could lead actually to catastrophe if not handled with strength and precision. Same is true with Russia, Ukraine and maybe even more so. We have to fix our country. We have to bring peace. Our nation is in dire trouble. I will fix it.

Where is the Nicky surge and the de-sanctimonious bounce? I've been hearing about the surge and the bounce for months, but we haven't seen it. In fact, I'm beating Ron in Florida 83 percent to 12 percent. I went up seven points and he went down way, way down. Christie is dog meat. Hutchison is holding solid at 1 percent. He's never been higher. Everyone should drop out, unify, and go after the worst and most corrupt president in the history of the United States, Crooked Joe Biden. This is the most incompetent, most corrupt president we've ever had. He's destroying our country. Thank you very much.

Under Crooked Joe Biden, Christians and Americans of faith are being persecuted like nothing this nation has ever seen before. Catholics in particular are being targeted, and evangelicals are surely on the watch list as well. Over the past three years, the Biden administration has sent SWAT teams to arrest pro-life activists. The FBI has been caught profiling devout Catholics as possible domestic terrorists and planning to send undercover spies into Catholic churches, just like in the old days of the Soviet Union. Catholics, you cannot vote for the Democrats. You cannot even think about voting for Biden. What they're doing to you is shocking. A new report from the House Judiciary Committee revealed that Crooked Joe's henchmen at the FBI abused their power and, quote, "singled out Americans who are pro-life, pro-family, and who support the biological basis for sex and gender distinctions as potential domestic terrorists." They consider them to be domestic terrorists. Can you believe it? This horrific weaponization of federal law enforcement against Christians is totally un-American. It is also a violation of civil rights. As president, I will create a new federal task force on fighting anti-Christian bias. It will be led by a Reformed Department of Justice, but it will involve many agencies and departments. Its purview will be to investigate all forms of illegal discrimination, harassment, and the persecution of Christians in America, as well as the use of taxpayer dollars to promote anti-Christian bigotry. Among other initiatives, the task force will review the past DOJ persecutions and prosecutions for evidence of anti-Christian prejudice. And it will also look at government agencies, universities, and major corporations that have adopted anti-Christian diversity, equity, and inclusion programs. Under my leadership, never again will the federal government be used to target religious believers. Americans of faith are not a threat to our country. Americans of faith are the soul of our country. We will protect Christians and people of faith. We will defend religion. We will defend our First Amendment, and we will restore the rule of law in America. Thank you very much.

Farmers represent the very best of America. You pour your heart into this land and your soul into the soil of our nation, and you don't get the credit you deserve. You deserve fantastic credit. Under the next Trump administration, we will have a rebirth of loyalty to the American farmer and to the American flag. I will defend you on trade, and if any other country tries to take advantage of our farmers, there will be a very steep price for them to pay. I will defend you on taxes. Crooked Joe is trying to massively raise your taxes, eviscerate the Trump tax cuts, and drastically raise the estate tax or the death tax, which will obliterate family farms and destroy your way of life forever. I got you all of these things, I got you everything, and they want to take it away from you. By contrast, I will cut your taxes, I will protect the Trump tax cuts, and I will save your farms from Biden's plans for their death and destruction. I will also defend you on energy and ethanol. Joe Biden, Ron de Sanctimonious, Nikki Haley, and so many others want to kill ethanol, wiping out billions of dollars and tens of thousands of jobs in Iowa and other farm states. I am the only candidate in this race who will save the ethanol industry from annihilation. It will be annihilation if I don't get in. You just watch, but hopefully you won't have to. And we won't just increase ethanol production, we will export ethanol all over the world. I will also rapidly end Crooked Joe's inflation nightmare and set up a special task force to help quickly reduce the high prices of fertilizer and other farm inputs that are crushing farmers, growers, and producers. And when I say crushing, I mean crushing like never before. We've never had anything like this before. They talk about the supply chain. They talk about everything. It's actually their incompetence. These are my vows to the American farm, and no one has ever fought for you like I have. Not even close. If you remember, I got you $28 billion from China. That was a special gift to the farmers. Nobody else would have been able to do that. We are just getting started. So to the farmers of America, to everybody in America, thank you very much.

In his latest outrageous sellout of the American people, Crooked Joe Biden has pledged to pay climate reparations to foreign countries. They've been ripping us off for years and now on top of it, we're gonna give them money when their atmospheres and everything else are horrible. We're gonna pay them, they're not gonna pay us. Just recently Crooked Joe sent Kamala Harris to Dubai with a pledge to give away billions and billions of dollars of American taxpayer money, all to foreign nations that don't deserve it. These America last lunatics want to redistribute your wealth to the rest of the world, to apologize for America's success. All the while, China and other countries pump massive amounts of pollution into the atmosphere and we pay. We pay for what they do. When I'm president, the United States will not pay one single penny in climate reparations as part of Joe Biden's globalist Green News scam. And if Crooked Joe tries to pay any climate reparations to foreign countries in the next 12 months, I will make it my mission to claw back every last cent when I take office. The days of stupidly transferring American wealth to foreign nations will soon be over. The election of 2024 will be the most important election in the history of our country. It will save our country. Thank you.

Hi, Leo 2.0 here, I'm just so happy the Supreme Court just told Jack Smith, "Hell no, we're not going to accelerate the trial." The greatest program discussing the law is Mark Levin, Life, Liberty and Levin. I was privileged to be on that show last week. We talked about this case. Watch the video. We said the Supreme Court should not hear this case. If you want the truth about the law, watch Mark Levin. If you want the truth about the law, watch Fox News. We call this, Jack Smith was trying to accelerate the process, the legal process for basically to try to convict Donald Trump before the election. It's not going to happen. The March 2024 date is over, dead, done. Trump 2024.
