Storming the Capitol

the fact that Leahy, not Roberts, is presiding over the trial while also serving as a juror–and a witness, since he is a senator and was there on Jan. 6–meaning that a Democrat senator and political opponent of the accused, Trump, is serving as judge, jury, and witness in a trial.

Federal charges for what? And the Senate trial is strictly about whether he should be removed from office.
Right that's all that it's about and if he's acquitted it does not stop the other federal and state investigations from continuing to move forward. And should it result in charges being filed are you going go running to his defense again? After all I was the one who backed a full and complete investigation of Hunter Biden and if he came up on charges he and he alone must answer them. Hunter Biden isn't any better than anybody else and neither is Donald John Trump.

There again Robert's exercised his right not to preside over Trump's second Senate trial and SCOTUS offered no comment as to the basis for that decision just as they often dismiss cases brought before it without comment. The task then falls to the President Pro Tempore of the Senate. If you don't like it then hire an attorney who is certified to argue your case in front of SCOTUS should they agree to hear it.

Have you heard that Biden has requested that all US Attorneys appointed by Trump to leave office by 2/28 ?
Some Democrats wanted certain US Attorneys to stay on the job to finish up their investigations, they are upset that Biden didn't consult them first.
The DOJ has requested only two office holders to remain.
US attorney David Weiss, who runs the federal prosecutor's office in Delaware.
And the prosecutor overseeing the federal tax probe involving Biden's son, Hunter Biden.

If thats true, how did you get so easily fooled by the election fraud hoax? Why did your side lose 64 cases?

Not fooled. We have a confession about the fraud and the conspiracy to prevent access to the lawful challenges to the election. Just because you believe lies simply due to repitition doesn't mean I'm going to believe your lies because you keep repeating them. You can't lose a court case that was never tried, why do you keep repeating lies about that?

The 64 number is fake news. Trump actually won the majority that went to courts and got a decision.

Plaintiffs lose cases without a trial everyday. What made up standard is this? If a judge dismisses a case you lost.

And the prosecutor overseeing the federal tax probe involving Biden's son, Hunter Biden.

From Bloomberg. Link not working properly:

"Replacing top prosecutors is standard for new administrations as the president seeks to put a stamp on U.S. attorneys’ offices across the country. The timeline for the officials to depart is a matter of weeks.

The decision is expected to affect 56 Senate-confirmed U.S. attorneys. There are 93 U.S. attorneys, according to the Justice Department.

Despite the overhaul, the Biden administration is asking U.S. Attorney David Weiss in Delaware to continue in office. Weiss is overseeing the tax investigation of Hunter Biden, the president’s son. Wilkinson asked Weiss to continue during a Monday night call, according to a department official.

John Durham, the U.S. attorney in Connecticut, will be asked to step down from that position but will continue in his role as special counsel looking into the origins of the investigation into Trump’s dealings with Russia, the official said.

The Biden administration also is expected to ask Michael Sherwin, the acting U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia, to move into an independent role to supervise solely the cases related to the deadly Jan. 6 mob attack at the U.S. Capitol, according to another official."

"In 2017, at the start of the Trump administration, then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions asked 46 U.S. attorneys appointed by President Barack Obama to submit their resignations. Most had to leave their jobs immediately although some were given time to finish their work."

Ok now find me an article that properly defends 30 executive orders at the beginning of a term

Normal stuff ... Trump made a big mistake when he did not ask for the resignation of all U.S Attorneys when he took office.
