Fmr #Trump aides are asking for #SCOTUS’ help as their ex-boss eyes the White House

Trump's fmr chief of staff, #MarkMeadows, is urging the justices to yank the #Georgia #ElectionSubversion case against him into federal court. His fmr trade advisor, #PeterNavarro, wants SCOTUS to wade into a fight over presidential records he kept on his private email.

Acc/to attendees, & to contemporaneous notes of the meeting taken by a participant, an aide answered: Yes, we received a bill; the funeral cost $60,000.

#Trump became angry. “It doesn’t cost 60,000 bucks to bury a fucking Mexican!” He turned to his chief of staff, #MarkMeadows, & issued an order: “Don’t pay it!” Later that day, he was still agitated. “Can you believe it?” he said, according to a witness. “Fucking people, trying to rip me off.”

@Mikasa4231 #Asheville #NorthCarolina was part of the Congressional District that voted to have #MarkMeadows *represent them* in #Congress.

#MarkMeadows was the leader of the treasonous #FreedomCaucus before he resigned to be Chief of Staff for the worst #POTUS in #history #DonaldTrump.

He ended his career *doing nothing* to stop the #January6th #FailedCoupAttempt.

🚨🚨🚨#JackSmith’s ~180pg brief on #Trump #criminal #ElectionInterference case will land on Judge #Chutkan’s desk today.🚨🚨🚨

Smith took testimony from #MarkMeadows, #MikePence, #PatCipollone, #DanScavino & others who either refused to cooperate w/the #Jan6 committee or wouldn’t get into key areas because of privilege. So the potential for new #evidence is very likely.

Since that December ruling, #MarkMeadows has obtained multiple #extensions on his deadline to ask #SCOTUS to review the dispute. In the meantime, the high court’s conservative majority handed down the #immunity ruling earlier this month that said #Trump had at least “presumptive” immunity for any of his *official acts* as president that were targeted in the federal #criminal charges brought by #SpecialCounsel #JackSmith.

…The US #11thCircuit Court of Appeals said last year that the #Georgia prosecution against #MarkMeadows should move forward in #StateCourt, concluding that fmr federal ofcls are not covered by that statute “removing” state cases against govt ofcls to federal court. Chief Judge William Pryor’s opinion for the court also said that “the events giving rise to this #criminal action were not related Meadows’s official duties.”
