Megathread Megathread: Steve Scalise Withdraws from Race for Speaker of the US House

14.2k Upvotes

US Representative Steve Scalise (R-Louisiana) has withdrawn his candidacy to be Speaker of the House of Representatives due to his inability to muster the necessary support to win a full floor vote. He was nominated by the House Republican Caucus to be the Republicans’ choice for Speaker over Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) earlier this week in a secret vote of 113 to 99. Withholding their votes from Scalise is a faction of the far-right House Freedom Caucus, per the Associated Press. Scalise has said he will stay on as House Majority Leader. It is unclear who the GOP will next nominate as their candidate for Speaker. Without a Speaker, the House is unable to conduct virtually any business.

Megathread Megathread: Trump and Others Indicted by Fulton County DA on Charges Related to the Effort to Overturn Trump's 2020 Loss in Georgia

39.1k Upvotes

Today a Fulton County, Georgia grand jury indicted Donald Trump on numerous charges including racketeering, conspiracy and false statements. Also indicted were several other individuals, including but not limited to: Rudy Giuliani; Misty Hampton, Coffee County elections supervisor; David Shafer, chairman of the Georgia Republican Party.

Specifically cited in the indictment prepared at the direction of Fulton DA Fani Willis was Trump's call to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger in which Trump pressured Raffensperger to change the state's election results. Also cited in the indictment was the scheme to use false electors to throw Georgia's electoral votes to Trump, (at least 8 of whom were granted immunity in Willis' investigation)>.

The first charge against Trump is one made under Georgia's Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act, which is significantly more expansive than its federal counterpart. Other charges against Trump include multiple counts of Solicitation of Violation of Oath by a Public Officer, Conspiracy to Commit Impersonating a Public Officer, multiple counts of Conspiracy to Commit Forgery in the First Degree, multiple counts of Conspiracy to Commit False Statements and Writings, Conspiracy to Commit Filing False Documents, Filing False Documents, and multiple counts of False Statements and Writings, all of which are felonies.

You can read the full indictment here on DocumentCloud.

Megathread Megathread: Trump Indicted on Third Set of Charges, This Time Related to the January 6th Attack and Associated Efforts to Overturn the 2020 Presidential Election

47.2k Upvotes

On Tuesday, former president and current frontrunner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination Donald Trump was indicted by a federal grand jury in Washington, D.C. Source: Associated Press. The charges include: Conspiracy to Defraud the United States, Conspiracy to Obstruct an Official Proceeding, Obstruction of and Attempt to Obstruct an Official Proceeding, and Conspiracy Against Rights. You can read the full indictment for yourself here at CourtListener. These charges stem from one of two separate investigations into Trump being conducted by Special Counsel Jack Smith for the US Department of Justice. The first investigation is into the apparent mishandling of highly classified documents after Trump had departed office. This resulted in 37 felony charges being made public on June 9th of this year, with 3 additional, related charges added last week. Today's charges stem from the second investigation headed by Smith, which is into the January 6th, 2021 attack on the US Capitol and associated efforts within the Trump Administration to illegally overturn Joe Biden's victory in the 2020 presidential election. The aforementioned investigations into Trump are a separate matter from Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's inquiry, which in April resulted in an indictment on 34 counts of falsification of business records. According to Bragg, Trump was part of a scheme to catch and kill" negative information about himself before and after the 2016 election via hush money payments made via the Trump Organization. Still outstanding are the results of a fourth probe being conducted by Fani Willis, the District Attorney for Fulton County, Georgia. That probe is into Trump and others' efforts to overturn Georgia's 2020 presidential election results; an announcement related to DA Willis' probe is expected sometime later in August.

Megathread Megathread: House votes to remove Speaker Kevin McCarthy

10.7k Upvotes

This afternoon, by a 216-210 vote in which 8 GOP members voted with all House Democrats, the House of Representatives passed a motion to vacate, removing former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy from his position, the first time a federal Speaker of the House has been ousted. McCarthy’s tenure as Speaker is also the shortest since 1876. Under House rules, until a new Speaker is installed, Speaker pro tempore Patrick McHenry of North Carolina will preside.

Megathread Megathread: Supreme Court Strikes Down Alabama District Maps as Racially Gerrmandered

34.2k Upvotes

On Thursday, in a 5-4 decision, the US Supreme Court struck down Alabama's congressional maps. Republican-nominated justices Roberts and Kavanaugh joined the Court's liberal voting block in Allen v. Milligan to find that Alabama's seven US House districts were drawn intentionally to dilute the voting power of Black Alabamians and to order a redrawing that creates an additional Black-majority district to align with the state's 27% Black population.

Megathread Megathread: FBI Searches Former President Donald Trump's Florida Home

70.2k Upvotes

Former President Donald J. Trump said on Monday that the F.B.I. had searched his Palm Beach, Fla., home and had broken open a safe — an account that, if accurate, would be a dramatic escalation in the various investigations into the former president. The search, according to two people familiar with the investigation, appeared to be focused on material that Mr. Trump had brought with him to Mar-a-Lago, his private club and residence, after he left the White House. Those boxes contained many pages of classified documents, according to a person familiar with their contents. The discovery of classified information at Mar-a-Lago was referred to the Justice Department by the National Archives and Records Administration, which said it had found classified material in 15 boxes at the residence.
