Alex Swoyer has written a powerful Book, "Lawless Lawfare: Tipping the Scales of Justice to Get Trump and Destroy MAGA." The unprecedented Weaponization of "Justice" by the Democrats against their Political Opponent (ME!) can never be forgotten, or allowed to happen again. Read this Book, and remember what the Radical Left Democrats are capable of, and what we overcame through sheer Grit, Wisdom, and Courage.

Today, President Donald J. Trump and Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP announce the following agreement regarding a series of actions to be taken by Skadden:1. Skadden will provide a total of at least $100 Million Dollars in pro bono Legal Services, during the Trump Administration and beyond, to causes that the President and Skadden both support, in relation to the following areas: Assisting Veterans and other Public Servants, including members of the Military, Law Enforcement, First Responders, and Federal, State, and Local Government Officials; ensuring fairness in our Justice System; and combatting Antisemitism. Skadden will change its pro bono policy so that all pro bono moving forward will be done in the Firm name. A pro bono Committee will be constituted to ensure that pro bono matters are consistent with the objectives of the program, and that pro bono activities represent the full political spectrum.2. The Skadden Foundation will commit to the mission of providing pro bono Legal Services to a wide variety of deserving organizations and individuals. Skadden is committed to funding no fewer than five Skadden Fellows each year dedicated to the following projects: Assisting Veterans; ensuring fairness in our Justice System; combatting Antisemitism, and other similar types of projects. Law Graduates that receive Skadden Fellowships will represent a wide range of political views, including conservative ideals.3.

Skadden will engage independent outside counsel to advise the Firm to ensure employment practices are fully compliant with Law, including, but not limited to, anti-discrimination Laws.4. Skadden will not deny representation to clients, such as members of politically disenfranchised groups, who have not historically received legal representation from major National Law Firms, including in pro bono matters, and in support of non-profits, because of the personal political views of individual lawyers.Statement From the White House: âSkadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP approached President Trump and his Administration, and declared the Firmâs strong commitment to ending the Weaponization of the Justice System and the Legal Profession. The President will never stop fighting to deliver on his promises of eradicating partisan Lawfare in America, and restoring Liberty & Justice for ALL.âStatement From Skadden Executive Partner, Jeremy London: âSkadden is pleased to have achieved a successful agreement with President Trump and his Administration. We engaged proactively with the President and his team in working together constructively to reach this agreement. The Firm looks forward to continuing our productive relationship with President Trump and his Admin. We firmly believe that this outcome is in the best interests of our clients, our people, and our Firm.â
….I am the only Political Opponent in American History not allowed to defend myself - A despicable First Amendment Violation! Merchan took the Manhattan D.A.’s Witch Hunt, that, according to all Legal Scholars, including Jonathan Turley, Elie Honig, Andy McCarthy, Alan Dershowitz, Gregg Jarrett, David Rivkin, Elizabeth Price Foley, Katie and Andy Cherkasky, Paul Ingrassia, and many others, is a nonexistent case, barred by the Statute of Limitations, and should have never been brought and, through his fraud and misconduct, gave it a semblance of “life.” While Deranged Jack Smith was sent packing back to The Hague after losing all of his politically manufactured cases against me, Merchan, who is far worse and even more corrupt than Smith in his fight for my hopeless political opponents, just cannot let go of this charade. Is it because of his conflicts and relations that he keeps breaking the Law? This has to stop! It is time to end the Lawfare once and for all, so we can come together as one Nation and, Make America Great Again.
Victor Davis Hanson: “None of the five civil and criminal cases currently lodged against former President Donald Trump have ever had merit…These criminal and civil trials are merely the continuation of extra-legal efforts of the last eight years to destroy a presidential candidate in lieu of opposing him in transparent elections…Enemies like China and Russia now boast that America’s new political prosecutions are similar to their own systems, or even more egregious, and will welcome us into their own customs of bastardized justice….
“IF YOU CAN’T BEAT HIM, LOCK HIM IN A COURT ROOM”
Video transcript
A Democrat prosecutor, Alvin Bragg, keeping the Republican nominee off the campaign trail for six weeks. That means Donald Trump isn't even allowed to attend his son Barron's high school graduation. If he tries to go, the judge will throw him in jail for that too. As you know, my son is graduating from high school and it looks like the judge will not let me go through the graduation of my son who's worked very, very hard and he's a great student. He's proud of the fact that he did so well and I was looking forward for years to have graduation with his mother and father there. It looks like the judges are going to allow me to escape the scam. It's a scam trial. I can't go to my son's graduation or that I can't go to the United States Supreme Court that I'm not in Georgia or Florida or North Carolina campaigning like I should be. It's perfect for the radical of Democrats. That's exactly what they want. This is about election interference. That's all it's about. Piers Morgan actually had a good idea for once and said Trump should go to Barron's graduation anyway and make the judge arrest him while everyone's throwing their caps in the air.

Gregg Jarrett: “Perhaps the Justices saw this for what it was: ELECTION INTERFERENCE.”

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.

RT: https://truthsocial.com/users/realDonaldTrump/statuses/111387014628489419“It’s never been more clear. This New York case is Democratic lawfare and election interference.”
Judge Engoron should end the ridiculous Political Witch Hunt against me. I have TOTALLY WON THIS CASE, which should never have been brought. The only Fraud was committed by A.G. Letitia James in convincing the Judge that Mar-a-Lago was only worth $18,000,000 (in order to make my “numbers” look bad), when it is worth 50 to 100 times that amount. She campaigned on “getting Trump.” She should be prosecuted!

Mike, let's start with you. I want to get back to this judge in New York. I mean, I think he actually is doing the public a favor, in a way, and maybe Trump, just revealing how biased not only he is, but this entire case being brought against President Trump. Because if it's covered at all, I think most people see what's going on here. First I want to commend Congresswoman Elise Stefanik. She filed an ethics complaint against this judge today, because he is blatantly biased, and he has horrific judicial temperaments. And it's very clear that between this Democrat Attorney General Tish James and this Democrat Judge Ingeron, they are railroading President Trump in New York, and they're going to try to bankrupt him and destroy his business. And this is part of the Democrats' lawfare and election interference. Now Saul, you called the proceeding clownish. Explain that for us. Well, the proceeding is clownish, because the judge is a clown. He's obviously biased. Look, Laura, I want your viewers to understand this. This is the absolute truth. This case never would have even been brought against anybody other than Donald Trump. You have no victim. You have no loss. The loans were repaid. The banks never complained about any of this. It is an example. What they are doing to Trump is what they accused Trump for four years of wanting to do. They are doing totally political prosecutions. So I don't know what else can be said about it. It's truly outrageous.
