Tucker Carlson hosted Dr. John Eastman. fox news On June 27, 2022, shortly after the FBI illegally seized Eastman’s cell phone, which contained privileged attorney-client information. After Mr. Tucker showed him a video of armed FBI agents romping with Mr. Eastman, he sneered: Wearing his little mask. “Hands up,” as if Eastman were a threat. He isn’t. he is a lawyer ”
In a rare case, Tucker was wrong. John Eastman is biggest threat To the anarchic tyranny of the far left.This system free a violent criminal on our streets, Extend bail for serial rapistsand release illegal immigrants A person who commits a criminal act. But if a conservative lawyer dares to serve as legal advisor to a sitting U.S. president, his life and reputation will be destroyed by the full force of the government and other institutions infected with the “woke” virus.
Our Father is well equipped for this battle, and some support his efforts, but there are too many bystanders.
This, of course, is the stated goal of the 65 Project, a group of left-wing activists dedicated to destroying regime critics through the mechanisms of the law. “Creating Patriotic Lawyers”toxic in their community”
For those new to the Eastman story, this legal case study began in public on January 6, 2021. Months earlier, President Donald Trump had sought Eastman’s legal representation in a case dealing with election irregularities and fraud.
Eastman became a widely known celebrity in his wake. Speech on the Ellipse This document describes a number of scenarios to consider in your efforts to combat the large-scale fraud revealed in the 2020 election.
The “Eastman Memo” demands three explanations that the traditional media refuses to acknowledge. First, Mr. Eastman said: Vice President’s Role In the certification of elections. He indicated that it was an open question whether the vice president, as president of the Senate, had the authority to resolve disputes over disputed electoral votes. Eastman testified under oath that he told President Trump and Vice President Mike Pence that this was not a wise move. He suggested that Pence respond to a request from more than 100 state lawmakers to send the matter back to the state Legislature to assess the impact of the fraud allegations and irregularities on the election.
It’s not a crime, it’s an argument.
Second, the claim that Eastman abetted criminal activity is false. This argument is based on the fact that the delay violates the procedural timing provisions of the Election Tabulation Act. The ECA is not a criminal law, nor is it a law establishing civil liability. Congress itself does not consider the law binding. More importantly, the Electoral College Act violated the Constitution’s provisions regarding how the president is chosen by wrongly granting Congress powers that were expressly delegated to the vice president or state legislatures.
Again, new york times As acknowledged in an October 2021 article, Eastman told Pence that if the method of selecting presidential electors (which are assigned constitutional authority) changes, the electoral rolls would be distributed to each state. He urged Americans to vote to show they still hold the reins of power. exclusively to the state legislature – violated by state election officials.
Even the electoral tabulation law that existed in 2020 granted Congress the power to return to the process of selecting electors after a failed election. In Mr. Eastman’s view, this provision further supported his conclusions regarding state legislative authority. Moreover, the election tabulation law recognizes an important role for the vice president, and Eastman’s analysis shows that the Constitution actually requires it.
If the election tabulation law does not explicitly allow for the vice president’s involvement, as some have argued, why did Congress secretly amend the law? Omnibus bill To clarify that the Vice President’s role in certifying the election was merely ministerial – an expensive letter opener?
Finally, the legacy media did not acknowledge that Eastman’s claims of election illegality were at least credible, and at most that the illegality and fraud was serious enough to steal the 2020 election. It would tar the man. in fact, poll show One-third to two-thirds of right-leaning Americans believe the former, and a growing number believe the latter.
Since attending the Ellipse, Mr. Eastman has endured three years of malicious litigation, complaints against his lawyers, subpoenas and testimony before a House committee on January 6th.
These include criminal charges. Eastman, along with President Trump and 17 other “co-conspirators,” were indicted on absurd and unprecedented racketeering charges in Georgia by corrupt district attorney Fannie Willis. committed perjury While giving sworn testimony about the details of his affair with the prosecutor he hired for the RICO case.
Holy Week brought new fears. Actions we predicted based on the law’s predictable conclusions took place Wednesday, shaking two centuries of American jurisprudence to its core.In response to a commenter’s statement explained In the longest (10 week, 32 day trial) and most expensive (more than $500,000) attorney’s trial in the history of this country, the Justices of the Court of Justice. Donation Even after appearing before the committee, he recommended to Democratic politicians that Eastman be removed from office.
Deep betrayal and hardship will come
Earlier this week, the United Nations Security Council passed a resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire in the Gaza Strip during Ramadan, the Muslim month of prayer and fasting. The U.S. ambassador abstained from voting, allowing it to pass. As President Biden declared in his speech, statement This “sacred month”, which marks the beginning of Ramadan, is a time of reflection and renewal.
Christians, on the other hand, are in the midst of a period of self-repentance during the 40 days of Lent leading up to Easter. One might hope that a government keen to preserve the sacred nature of the penitential season of Ramadan would honor Lent similarly for devout Christians.
Nevertheless, on Wednesday of Holy Week, which precedes the holiest day in the Christian calendar, California State Bar Judge Yvette Rowland issued a ruling recommending the disbarment of Mr. Eastman, a Roman Catholic. did.
This day is especially important for Catholics. Wednesday of Holy Week is also known as “Spy Wednesday” because it is traditionally commemorated as the day Judas Iscariot conspired with the chief priests to betray Jesus. Spy Wednesday is therefore a day when Catholics explicitly reflect on the betrayal by one of Jesus’ closest followers. This is the day the California State Bar chose to betray its lawyers by falsely accusing them of trying to subvert “our democracy.”
Poetically, the disqualification goes into effect after three days unless a suspension is requested and issued. Because the verdict was handed down on Wednesday, the three days fall during the Holy Triduum: Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Saturday. In years past, Eastman was often seen in church during the Triduum, praying the Prayer of the Cross and meditating on the Lord’s death and resurrection. This year, he will hole up in his office, intently reading the 128-page judgment and helping draft a motion to put his order on hold while the appeals process plays out.
The hardships of this season, with livelihoods at stake, will take on even more meaning for Eastman and his family this year.
It may seem a bit far-fetched to compare Eastman et al.’s work to the Passion and Death of Jesus Christ, but a moment’s thought will reveal the connection.
Jesus was betrayed and unjustly condemned because he preached a gospel message that went against the desires of the ruling class of his day. Mr. Eastman has been betrayed and prosecuted for speaking out against the wishes of the political establishment and mainstream media about the illegality and fraud of the election. At stake is the very soul of our nation, founded on the Judeo-Christian foundations of truth and justice.
So this Holy Week, Eastman will actually take up his cross and try to defend our nation’s institutions that guarantee religious freedom and the American way of life.
call to action
Eastman has spent his life preparing to fight years of organized attacks and legal action. His encyclopedic knowledge and understanding of the law was developed through his years of study in political philosophy, which eventually led to his Ph.D. He went on to serve in government under giants like Harry V. Jaffa, from the once-famous Claremont Graduate School. His law degree is from the University of Chicago, which is one of the top law schools in the country. He clerked for Justice Clarence Thomas of the United States Supreme Court. He served as a professor of constitutional law and dean of the Chapman School of Law for decades. He is the founder of the Center for Constitutional Law at the Claremont Institute.
Our Father is well equipped for this battle, and some support his efforts, but there are too many bystanders.
With the soul of our justice system at stake, it’s time for others to join the fight.
To conservative media: Hire reporters to cover legal issues. So far, the only consistent defender of Eastman exposing the travesty of his judicial trial in the media is Arizona Sun-Times reporter Rachel Alexander.
For conservative nonprofits: There is no shortage of options for pursuing offensive or defensive legal strategies. Choose one and join the battle. File a complaint at the bar against a corrupt prosecutor. Refer corrupt judges to the state Judicial Qualifications Commission. A movement calling for the impeachment of partisan judges. Work with the Bar Association to ensure a more equal disciplinary process. Provide legal counsel and legal funding to a lawyer who will weather this storm on your behalf. Because Eastman won’t be the last.
To lawyers on both sides of politics: The integrity of your profession is at stake. Beg your state’s courts to keep political interests out of their work.
To Americans: your prayers and financial support This week is more meaningful than ever.
People ask how John Eastman endures. They spiked his driveway. They graffitied the streets of his neighborhood to pinpoint his address. They send death threats.They are protested outside the house over 1 year. They threatened him with armed FBI agents in the restaurant parking lot and detained his wife.They are seize his cell phone And keep it and its contents for almost two years and beyond.
His “friends” stripped him of his board membership after decades of service.they suspend his membership Society, claims he is a threat.They are cancel university classes and force him to resign. Bank of America and USAA canceled his bank accounts.they forcefully humiliate him surrender to prison, took his mug shot and set him on bail, an amount typically given to violent criminals. They are costing him millions in legal fees as he seeks the protection of our great Constitution.
And if they disagree with him and decide that the former president is not worthy of legal counsel, they disqualify him from being president.
The will to persevere comes from the meaning of Holy Week itself. As this week comes to a close, draw comfort and strength from your family. the words of our lord: “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. When people revile you and persecute you and say all kinds of false evil against you for my sake; Blessed are you! Rejoice and be very glad, for your reward in heaven is great.”
By living by this word, Eastman became a happy warrior and was able to lead his family through this storm. Truth and justice will prevail.
