Eastman... Let us not forget Eastman AND Cleta Mitchell have connections to Clarence and Ginni Thomas... Still 90,000 pieces of papers, emails etc that belong to his employer on the employer's computer .. Attorney John Eastman, a key ally in Donald Trump’s bid to subvert the 2020 election, says he began advising Trump two months before Election Day, when a prominent conservative attorney recruited him to “begin preparing for anticipated post-election litigation.” That attorney, Cleta Mitchell, was deputized directly by Trump in August 2020 to establish an “election integrity working group,” Eastman indicated in court papers filed Tuesday evening in a federal court in California. “Ms. Mitchell had been deputized by President Trump himself in late August 2020 to undertake that effort on his behalf,” Eastman says in the filing by attorneys Anthony Caso and Charles Burnham. “As a member of the Election Integrity Working Group and in furtherance of my representation of President Trump as candidate and his campaign committee, I began conducting legal research and collaborating with academic advisers and other supporters of the President about the myriad number of factual and legal issues we anticipated might arise following the election,” Eastman reveals. Mitchell directed questions about Eastman’s assertion to her attorney John Rowley, who did not immediately respond to a request for comment, Eastman’s filing is the first-ever formal description of his legal work for Trump. He described his legal relationship with Trump in court papers filed in the U.S. District Court of Central California, where he’s been ordered by a judge to produce thousands of pages of records to the Jan. 6 select committee. Eastman has attempted to shield many of these records by claiming attorney-client privilege, which prompted the select committee to demand evidence of his legal relationship with Trump, the Trump campaign or the White House. The judge in the case, David Carter, agreed with the panel and ordered Eastman to detail his work for Trump. The case involves 90,000 pages of Eastman’s emails held by his former employer, Chapman University, which was subpoenaed by the select committee. Although Chapman has agreed to provide the documents, Eastman sued last month to block them. House General Counsel Doug Letter, who is leading the select committee’s battle in court, indicated in a recent hearing before Carter that the committee considers Eastman to be among the most pivotal figures in the investigation. “Professor Eastman appears to be a central player in the development of a legal strategy to justify a coup,” Letter said last week.Tuesday’s filing provides the clearest insight yet into the relationship between Trump and the legal adviser who helped pressure then-Vice President Mike Pence to single-handedly attempt to overturn the election. Eastman says he advised Trump on various lawsuits seeking to invalidate millions of votes and spoke to state legislators who he said had the authority to appoint their own set of pro-Trump electors. Eastman goes on to detail why he opposes the release of hundreds of pages of documents that would shed light on his conversations with the Trump campaign during the key weeks of December. “[Redacted] is an attorney who reached out to Dr. Eastman offering to serve as a volunteer attorney helping with his efforts on behalf of President Trump,” Eastman says, describing his effort to shield one document from the panel. www.politico.com/news/2022/02/22/john-eastman-donald-trump-00010876 |

Joshua James Oath Keepers pled guilty to seditious conspiracy. Oath Keeper pleads guilty to seditious conspiracy in landmark Capitol riot legal developmentBrad Reed March 02, 2022 Joshua James, a member of the Oath Keepers and a co-defendant of Oath Keepers leader Stewart Rhodes, has pleaded guilty to seditious conspiracy. As CBS News' Scott MacFarlane reports, James's guilty plea is "a big win" for the United States Department of Justice and "potentially... problematic" for Rhodes, who has pleaded not guilty to seditious conspiracy charges. According to MacFarlane, James is admitting that his actions at the Capitol were intended to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power and that they were done as part of a plan concocted by Rhodes.Additionally, James's plea deal is contingent upon his cooperation with prosecutors.Although many Capitol rioters have been charged for their roles in breaching the Capitol and committing acts of violence, Rhodes and some of his fellow Oath Keepers are so far the only ones to face the very serious seditious conspiracy charges. "The seditious conspiracy indictment alleges that, following the Nov. 3, 2020, presidential election, Rhodes conspired with his co-defendants and others to oppose by force the execution of the laws governing the transfer of presidential power by Jan. 20, 2021," the DOJ alleged in its indictment. "Beginning in late December 2020, via encrypted and private communications applications, Rhodes and various co-conspirators coordinated and planned to travel to Washington, D.C., on or around Jan. 6, 2021, the date of the certification of the electoral college vote, the indictment alleges. Rhodes and several co-conspirators made plans to bring weapons to the area to support the operation. The co-conspirators then traveled across the country to the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area in early January 2021." www.rawstory.com/oath-keeper-guilty-plea/ |

And this.. Oath Keeper says Stewart Rhodes told him to be ready to use 'lethal force' to stop Trump from being removedMatthew Chapman March 02, 2022 Stewart Rhodes, also charged in the conspiracy — including an allegation that he instructed his followers to be ready to kill anyone, even members of the Armed Forces, who sought to remove President Donald Trump from office. In the weeks leading up to January 6, 2021, Rhodes instructed James and other coconspirators to be prepared, if called upon, to report to the White House grounds to secure the perimeter and use lethal force if necessary against anyone who tried to remove President Trump from the White House, including the National Guard or other government actors who might be sent to remove President Trump as a result of the Presidential Election," said the plea deal signed by James. www.rawstory.com/oath-keeper-guilty-plea-2656830051/ |

KIMBERLY got a subpoena!! It gets better she can't claim attorney-client privilege.. The fiancée of Donald Trump, Jr. was subpoenaed by the House Select Committee to Investigate the Jan. 6 Attack on the United States Capitol, but is unlikely to successfully employ attorney-client privilege to in response to questioning.Kimberly Guilfoyle spent a decade working as a deputy district attorney in both Los Angeles and San Francisco, but the State Bar of California says she was "not eligible to practice law" during the period in question. *** In June of 2019, the administrative arm of the California Supreme Court to regulate attorneys suspended Guilfoyle's law license for failure to pay her fees. It currently lists her status as "inactive" and in searches do know show her licensed in New York or Florida. www.rawstory.com/former-attorney-kimberly-guilfoyle/

Oh oh…
From the article..
As a mob ransacked the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, Roger Stone, Donald Trump’s longest-serving political adviser, hurried to pack a suitcase inside his elegant suite on the fifth floor of the Willard hotel. He wrapped his tailored suits in trash bags, reversed his black face mask so its “Free Roger Stone” logo was hidden, then slipped out of town for a hastily arranged private flight from Dulles International Airport.
“I really want to get out of here,” Stone told an aide, as they were filmed at the hotel by a Danish camera crew for a documentary on the veteran Republican operative. Stone said he feared prosecution by the incoming attorney general, Merrick Garland. “He is not a friend,” Stone said.
Stone allowed the filmmakers to document his activities during extended periods over more than two years. In addition to interviews and moments when Stone spoke directly to the camera, they also captured fly-on-the-wall footage of his actions, candid off-camera conversations from a microphone he wore and views of his iPhone screen as he messaged associates on an encrypted app. Reporters from The Washington Post reviewed more than 20 hours of video filmed for the documentary, “A Storm Foretold,” which is expected to be released later this year.
The footage, along with other reporting by The Post, provides the most comprehensive account to date of Stone’s involvement in the former president’s effort to overturn the election and in the rallies in Washington that spilled over into violence on Jan. 6.
Stone privately coordinated post-election protests with prominent figures, and in January he communicated by text message with leaders of far-right groups that had been involved in the attack on the Capitol, the footage shows. The filmmakers did not capture conversations between Stone and Trump, but on several occasions, Stone told them or his associates that he remained in contact with the president.
Stone has refused to give testimony and evidence to the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack, citing his rights under the Fifth Amendment. Last week, he sued members of the panel to try to block them from using a subpoena to obtain his telephone records.
On the day of the attack, as he packed his bags, Stone told the filmmakers the riot was a mistake and would be “really bad” for the pro-Trump movement.
On the eve of the 2020 election, however, he seemed to welcome the prospect of clashes with left-wing activists. In a recorded conversation, as an aide spoke of driving trucks into crowds of racial justice protesters, Stone said: “Once there’s no more election, there’s no reason why we can’t mix it up. These people are going to get what they’ve been asking for.”
Stone declined requests for an interview. In response to questions, he said in an email that he had no involvement in the Jan. 6 riot. “Any claim, assertion or implication that I knew about, was involved in or condoned the illegal acts at the Capitol on Jan 6 is categorically false and there is no witness or document that proves otherwise,” he wrote.
Without providing specifics, Stone accused The Post of employing “a clever blend of ‘guilt by association,’ insinuations, half truths, anonymous claims, falsehoods and out of context trick questions.” He suggested that video clips of him reviewed for this article could be “deep fakes.”
“You attribute things to me I never said,” Stone wrote, without citing any examples.
Stone moved quickly after Trump’s defeat to help mobilize the protest movement that drew thousands to the nation’s capital on Jan. 6, 2021, The Post found. He privately strategized with former national security adviser Michael Flynn and rally organizer Ali Alexander, who visited Stone’s home in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., in late November 2020 for a dinner where Stone served pasta and martinis.
A few hours before the Jan. 6 attack, the video shows, a member of the far-right Oath Keepers group — who has since pleaded guilty to seditious conspiracy — was in Stone’s suite at the Willard. Other rooms in the same hotel were used as a “command center” by Trump’s personal lawyer Rudolph W. Giuliani and other advisers involved in the fractious battle to overturn the election. Stone was not part of their effort, the footage indicates, and he said he feared that top organizers were trying to exclude him from the rally.”
Stone used an encrypted messaging app later in January to communicate with Oath Keepers leader Stewart Rhodes, who is also charged with seditious conspiracy, and Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio, the footage shows. Prosecutors have said that Rhodes erased some messages from his phone before it was taken by the FBI.
A federal judge considering lawsuits filed against Trump by Democrats and Capitol Police officers over the Jan. 6 riot said in an order in February that Stone’s connection to Trump, the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers may prove to be “an important one.”
Stone did not permit the filmmakers to record him for a 90-minute period covering the height of the violence on Jan. 6. A Stone aide blocked a cameraman from entering his hotel suite, claiming that Stone was napping, the cameraman said. When he eventually got inside, Stone was speaking on his phone.
After he left Washington, Stone lobbied for Trump to enact the “Stone Plan” — a blanket presidential pardon to shield himself, Trump’s allies in Congress and “the America First movement” from prosecution for trying to overturn the election, according to the footage and additional documents reviewed by The Post.

This may be the break needed... COMMENTARY New documents show Trump thought he'd get away with his crimesAmanda Marcotte, Salon March 04, 2022 There is one simple reason why Donald Trump orchestrated his coup — one which led to a violent insurrection on January 6, 2021: He didn't think he'd ever face consequences for doing so. A document filed by the January 6 committee with a California federal court on Wednesday confirmed it. The document is filed on a narrow question about obtaining documents from likely Trump co-conspirator John Eastman, who is claiming attorney-client privilege. But that privilege doesn't give lawyers the right to conspire to commit crimes with their clients, which is exactly what the committee alleges Eastman and Trump were doing. Late Thursday, the New York Times published an analysis of the evidence for this claim presented in the filing, and unsurprisingly, it's damning and extensive. Through multiple witnesses and documents, the Times shows that Trump was repeatedly informed that his election loss was real. It also shows that Trump's claims of "fraud" were based on nothing. When advisors shot down his conspiracy theories, he just kept making up new ones. This is not the behavior of someone who has sincere reason to believe that an election was fraudulent. This is a person perpetuating a lie and trying to falsify evidence to support it. But the most chilling detail in the New York Times breakdown is what former Justice Department official Richard Donoghue described as Trump's rationale for attempting to overthrow democracy. "The president said something to the effect of: 'What do I have to lose?'" "'If I do this, what do I have to lose?'" Donoghue told the committee Trump asked. Donoghue further says he pleaded with Trump not to "hurt the country," but of course, that plea fell on deaf ears. Trump is a sociopathic narcissist. Of course, he wasn't going to be affected by appeals to the greater good, or feel compelled by his own oath to uphold democracy. Trump cares about one thing and one thing only — always has and always will: Donald J. Trump. At this late date, anyone who denies this is a liar or delusional to the point of madness. What matters here, however, is the deep assurance Trump had that he would never face a real consequence — neither politically, nor legally, and certainly not criminally — for perpetuating a massive crime against democracy. And why shouldn't he think that? Trump has been criming his entire life, and never faced anything like a serious consequence. As the New York Times has repeatedly shown in its reporting, Trump has been a massive tax fraud his whole career. He doesn't even bother to deny it, but brags about how defrauding the government and other taxpayers is a "sport" and makes him "smart." He's been accused of sexual harassment, assault, and rape by over two dozen women. But we don't have just their testimony to rely on to believe them, because Trump himself bragged about it on the infamous "grab 'em by the pussy" tape........ *** It's abundantly clear that nothing will stop Trump but a threat of consequences, one that has teeth. He is not constrained by morality, as he has none. He is not constrained by the Republican Party, which has made it clear they will assist Trump in his anti-democratic efforts and cover up for any crimes he commits along the way. It may be hard to prosecute him, but it is literally the only hope we have of stopping him from attempting another coup. With the full support of the GOP behind him next time he tries to overthrow democracy, he'll likely succeed. "What do I have to lose?" is basically Trump's motto. If he never gets an answer, he will never stop. www.rawstory.com/new-documents-show-trump/And a whole lot more..... |

Making progress. Thank you judge! Jan. 6 committee scores big legal win over John Eastman as judge says he'll review emailsBrad Reed March 09, 2022 The House Select Committee investigating the January 6th riots at the United States Capitol scored a big win in its dispute with notorious "coup memo" attorney John Eastman. United States District Judge for the Central District of California David O. Carter on Wednesday said he would review Eastman's emails to determine the validity of his attorney-client privilege claims about his interactions with former President Donald Trump. "The circumstances of this case favor review [of the emails]," Carter wrote. "In part due to the parties’ cooperation to exclude extraneous emails, there are only 111 challenged documents between January 4-7, 2021. As the Court has previously noted, the evidence suggests that communications from those days are essential to the Select Committee’s pressing investigation." www.rawstory.com/john-eastman-2656898548/ |

Eastman knew the whole disruption of counting Jan 6th was illegal!! 'One more violation': Emails show Trump attorney John Eastman was aware Jan. 6 scheme was unlawfulTravis Gettys March 10, 2022 Right-wing attorney John Eastman appears to be aware his scheme to pressure Mike Pence to overturn Donald Trump's election loss was unlawful. Email exchanges released last week by the House select committee show that Eastman was aware that interrupting the congressional certification of Joe Biden's election win, so that Trump's attorneys could argue the Electoral Count Act was not followed to the letter of the law, was, in fact, unlawful but pressed forward with the scheme, reported The Guardian. The Senate and House have both violated the Electoral Count Act this evening – they debated the Arizona objections for more than two hours. Violation of 3 USC 17,” Eastman wrote to Pence's counsel Greg Jacob at 9:44 p.m. on Jan. 6, 2021. Eastman argued that since the statute had been violated in small ways, which amounted to a delay of several hours at most, Pence should be willing to commit “one more minor violation and adjourn for 10 days." *** That shows Eastman, who was advising Trump after his election loss, knew the scheme to delay Biden's certification violated the Electoral Count Act and showed he was involved in a conspiracy to defraud the United States and obstruct Congress, as the House counsel Douglas Letter argued Tuesday while appearing on behalf of the select committee in a federal court hearing. *** The email also raises the possibility that Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani also was aware the scheme was illegal when he called Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) at about 7 p.m. that evening asking the newly elected GOP senator to object to 10 states Biden had won after Congress reconvened about an hour later, which would have dragged the joint session into the following day. www.rawstory.com/john-eastman-email/ |

“Opinion: James Comey: Every Jan. 6 case matters”
By James B. Comey
March 7, 2022 at 10:02 a.m. EST
James B. Comey is a former director of the FBI and a former deputy attorney general.
The FBI is a complex organization, full of interesting and committed people with a wide range of personal views on all kinds of things, including politics. That’s good.
But I keep hearing that some FBI special agents, scattered around the country, don’t understand why it’s so important that everyone be held accountable who committed any crime at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 — even if that crime was “only” trespassing inside the building. Here’s what I would say to them.
We are a nation of laws, and the FBI is an organization dedicated to the rule of law. All of you learned that at Quantico and took an oath to support and defend the Constitution. You also know the country you are charged with protecting is often a messy place. We have always had divisive politics in the United States, going back to when Jefferson and Hamilton started savaging each other during the Washington administration.
But despite all the division, passion and anger, we have never had something like Jan. 6. We have never had a circumstance where Americans decided it was okay to physically interfere with the election procedures set out in our Constitution and laws. It can’t ever happen again. Among the great things about being in the FBI is that you have a role to play in ensuring it doesn’t.
And this isn’t about your politics or what news channel you watch after a long day with the Bureau. It isn’t about whether you believe local prosecutors weren’t tough enough on crimes committed during street demonstrations in the summer of 2020. It isn’t about whether — after all the court cases and investigations — you still believe the people on the Hill that day had legitimate grievances. It also isn’t about whether — having watched the videos of bear spray and tactical gear and the beating of police officers and the calls for hanging the vice president — you believe most of them were just good people led astray by a lying demagogue.
None of that matters because surely you agree on one thing: Jan. 6 can’t happen again. No Americans, whatever their politics, whatever their personal grievances, can ever again try to interfere in the operation of laws governing the election of a president. We have a Constitution and statutes and courts so a mob can’t rule in the United States. The FBI’s job is to send the message that it can never happen again, if we are to remain a nation under law.
Normally, when you make criminal cases, you are thinking about personal deterrence or incapacitation, two of the main goals of criminal prosecutions. That is, you are making a case to keep a bad guy from hurting someone else. Of course, there are Jan. 6 cases like that, and I suspect all agents agree that anybody who hit a cop or ransacked a room or conspired to violent sedition must be locked up.
But the Jan. 6 investigation is mostly about something you might not think about much in your normal caseload: general deterrence. It is about sending a message — a shock wave of deterrence — so future Americans, whether misled by a lying demagogue or rightfully concerned about the loss of their rights, never again assault the institutions of government. That means that even those who “merely” trespassed by following the crowd inside must be held accountable, even if only guilty of a misdemeanor. “Zero tolerance” is an overused phrase, but it fits here, if a lasting message of general deterrence is to be sent.
Anyone tempted to “merely” trespass with a future mob at the Capitol must understand that the FBI will find them, no matter how long it takes, and bring them to justice. Maybe “justice” for many of those cases is a sentence of probation. So why care about a no-jail-time misdemeanor case, when you have a caseload full of fraudsters, gangsters and child-sex offenders? Because of the message — even from misdemeanor convictions — which might be one of the most important you ever help send: Never again. Vote, argue, litigate, demonstrate. But don’t you dare interfere by force in the operation of this democracy. It can’t ever happen.
And it won’t, if the FBI does its job. So please go find them all, and send a message that will truly protect the country we all love so much.”
Nice words but if he hadn’t written the letter about nothing 11 days before the election January 6 would have never happened.

I think this is very good news!! Jan. 6 committee obtains footage from documentary crew that filmed Proud Boys and Three PercentersBrad Reed March 15, 2022 The House Select Committee investigating the Capitol riots has now obtained video footage from a documentary crew that was following around members of the Proud Boys and the Three Percenter militia ahead of January 6th. Politico reports that the footage obtained by the committee "captured crucial moments during the run up to the assault on the Capitol — including snippets of an encounter between leaders of the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers." Included in the footage is a meeting between Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio and Three Percenters founder Stewart Rhodes that took place just before the riots. Rhodes has been charged with engaging in a seditious conspiracy for his role in the riots, while Tarrio this month was also arrested and charged with conspiracy. The House Select Committee has so far interviewed hundreds of witnesses related to its investigation of the Capitol riots, and has even indicated in court filings that it believes it has uncovered evidence of criminal behavior by former President Donald Trump and attorney John Eastman as they tried to stop the certification of the 2020 presidential election. The committee is currently slated to begin public hearings next month. www.rawstory.com/capitol-riot-committee-2656965261/ |

Big big news ..Executive privilege is gone when a crime is committed?? The author of the notorious "coup memo" on how Donald Trump could attempt to retain power despite losing the 2020 election had one of his legal defenses undermined by his own former university.*** But Chapman, where Eastman worked as a professor and deal(sic) of the law school, undermined that argument by telling a judge that he was not authorized to be using his work email for his activities. The committee argues that unauthorized email use invalidates attorney-client privilege. *** ....Chapman faculty and staff are not free to use Chapman University’s email address, physical address or telephone number in connection with the support of a political candidate.'" www.rawstory.com/john-eastman-2656989082/ |

Interesting... Does the Justice Department's request for more lawyers show something is about to happen?Sarah K. Burris March 29, 2022 **** Former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner noted that because so many members of Congress are compromised in the investigation, the DOJ may be choosing not to coordinate with the investigatory committee. There's also a question about the DOJ's probes being made public. Were Trump and his allies to learn of any DOJ investigation, whether it exists or not, they're likely to shut down any cooperation with the Jan. 6 committee. "The funding request and Monaco’s vow to pursue culprits 'no matter at what level' suggest that Justice Department investigators will continue to follow the chain upward from the insurrection participants and planners to those in the previous administration who set out to overturn the election, including Trump," wrote Rubin. "Still, the absence of any indication that Justice Department lawyers are questioning higher-level personnel leaves many wondering: What is the department up to, and what will it do with all the resources it is seeking?" Many of the Jan. 6 attackers who have been indicted are taking plea agreements, but for those that aren't, it means prosecutors are going to be busy when trying the cases. At the same time, information recently about Ginni Thomas, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, revealed she was in communication with the White House pushing 2020 election conspiracies. If Thomas were to be subpoenaed, there could be another legal fight the DOJ will be forced to have simply to get a deposition. Rubin explained that the addition of 80 new prosecutors, however, could speed up the process on a lot of charges. www.rawstory.com/justice-department-new-lawyers/#cxrecs_s |
