Kato Crews is currently the United States magistrate judge of the United States District Court for the District of Colorado. He has been nominated for a district court seat in the state."Tell me how you analyze a Brady motion," Kennedy told Crews. The Brady motion is a request by a defendant to compel prosecutors in a criminal case to turn over potentially favorable evidence. It is named after the Supreme Court case that affirmed it, Brady v.

Sen. Kennedy. Please, sir. Mr. Crews is black. You expected more? Silly fool. s/o He checked the biggest box that negates any and all other qualifications. How in the hell has he gotten as far up the system as he has? That's a rhetorical question.

At least he gets to check at least one diversity box. Now if he was transgendered and gay it would be the diversity trifecta.

So, we not only learn that Magistrate Crews was absent the day they taught law at Law School, but also that he never saw 'My Cousin Vinny'.

I had three law classes on my way to a California real estate brokers license. We studied the Brady case incidental to a discussion of real estate fraud together with fiduciary responsibilities to clients. This bozo is unqualified if he does not know simple elements of decided law...stare decisis...in civil and criminal litigation, decisions by the Supreme Court or lesser legal venues.

Answered in the same manner as Ketanji Brown. I'm guessing law students who didn't need to pass the LSATs and maybe even the Bar (on their own). There ARE qualified Black candidates, i am sure, it's just their "Judicial philosophy" which disqualifies them and the opposite which makes a candidate appealing to the Left: destroy this Constitutional Republic and put the nail in the coffin of the meritocracy which made us freer, more prosperous over the broad spectrum.

An attorney who advised disgraced Trump organization lawyer Michael Cohen provided Manhattan prosecutors with voluminous documentation, including contemporaneous emails and memos, purporting to show that in 2018 Cohen wanted Donald Trump to help cover his legal bills and repeatedly claimed he had no evidence incriminating the former president in a hush money deal with porn actress Stormy Daniels."Cohen said he had no information against Trump," one memo summarizing attorney Robert Costello's interactions with Cohen stated. That memo, dated April 2019, recounted Costello's interview with federal prosecutors about conversations he and colleagues had with Cohen a year earlier.

An Israeli think tank executive claims he told the FBI in 2019 that members of the Biden family warned a Chinese energy executive about a coming federal investigation, allowing him to flee the country before being placed under arrest.Gal Luft, the co-director of the Institute for the Analysis of Global Security, a Washington-based foreign policy think tank, provided the "explosive" details to the FBI and Justice Department in March 2019, according to his lawyer.

If Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg actually indicts former President Donald Trump this week and prosecutes him in what will inevitably become a show trial, the Democrats will regret it. This is ironic considering their absurd yet oft-repeated comparison of Trump to Adolf Hitler. If these people knew anything about the latter’s rise to power, they would realize that it was just such a trial that launched his genocidal political career in Germany. Trump is no aspiring autocrat, but a politicized prosecution and biased coverage by the corporate media will certainly energize his base.

Did you make any “worrisome jokes” about the Biden administration’s proposal to send agents door-to-door to browbeat people to get COVID vaccines? Then you were a public enemy guilty of spreading dangerous disinformation. Did you ask questions about COVID policy? You were guilty of a tactic “commonly used by spreaders of misinformation to deflect culpability.” Did you complain to anyone that vaccine passports violated your liberty? You were deluded, if not depraved, and guilty of propelling a deceptive “anti-vaccination narrative about the loss of rights and freedoms.” Your tax dollars at work: These are the bizarre revelations from the latest and perhaps funniest Twitter Files from Matt Taibbi.

Bravo to Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.) for revealing just how much of a family business Biden, Inc. is. Bank records newly obtained by his House Oversight Committee show that Hunter Biden associate Rob Walker transferred north of $1.3 million in 2017 not only to usual suspects Hunter and presidential little brother Jim but also to daughter-in-law Hallie (son Beau’s widow; Hunter’s brief fling) — plus an unknown simply tagged as “Biden.” The family that gets paid together stays together, it seems. Most of that big chunk of change came from a $3 million transfer from an affiliate of Chinese energy outfit CEFC to Walker. CEFC, now defunct,

It has long been obvious that the Democrats harbor a deep aversion to free expression and that they are perfectly willing to silence voices that fail to parrot the pungent orthodoxies of the left. Historically, however, this authoritarian impulse has been impeded by the First Amendment and the revulsion with which most Americans regard censorship. It is no small irony that the advent of the internet, which was widely expected to make it all but impossible to interfere with the free flow of information, actually rendered it easier to suppress speech by stealth.

At this point, it is highly unlikely that we’re going to solve the fentanyl problem in the United State by the end of this decade, and certainly not by the end of Joe Biden’s term, be it in 2024 or 2028. To do so would require a U.S. government willing to take all of the steps necessary to address the multi-faceted crisis, and as much as both sides talk a half-decent game, neither the Republicans nor the Democrats seem eager to try to fix the crisis.And, as I’ve mentioned here repeatedly, this is definitely a problem that has taken several presidential administrations to grow into the problem it is now.

The situation surrounding John Fetterman continues to get much weirder. The Pennsylvania senator is still residing at Walter Reed hospital after checking himself in for “severe” depression some weeks prior. That followed another recent hospital stint for light-headedness. Fetterman has suffered from a multitude of health issues since he suffered a massive stroke in mid-2022. Despite a “recovery” from the stroke that is clearly going in the wrong direction, talk of Fetterman resigning has been dismissed as ableism. His staff has also tried to keep up appearances, making it seem as if he’s still working while being confined at Walter Reed. It’s safe to say if Fetterman were a Republican,

In socialist countries, the political elites nobly and selflessly refrain from enjoying the fruits of the workers’ paradise they create. Instead of living in soulless apartment blocks, eating stale and unpalatable scraps, and toiling all day at state-owned factories for the sole benefit of the state itself, they luxuriate in magnificent dwellings and feast on lobster and caviar. The rules are for those who actually believe in the socialist propaganda or who have no choice but to comply. Those who actually make the rules in the dictatorship of the proletariat don’t feel any obligation to live as if they really were proletarians.

Last week’s oral arguments before the Supreme Court concerning the Biden administration’s student-loan forgiveness plan predictably focused on arcane legal theories such as the “major questions doctrine.” Relatively little time was devoted to the profoundly inequitable structure of the program. Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Neil Gorsuch did note that it would provide benefits to certain favored persons while ignoring the very real costs it would impose on others, but no one mentioned a fact that will gall most taxpayers — it would cancel student loans for college dropouts.

Crews, a nominee for district judge of the U.S. District Court of Colorado, was asked by Kennedy how he would "analyze a Brady motion," with Crews answering that he had not "had the occasion to address a Brady motion" during his four and a half years on the bench. After stumbling over the answer, Kennedy asked Crews if he knew "what a Brady motion is." Crews, who currently serves as a magistrate judge, admitted that the concept was "not coming to mind"

By the age of eleven, Jazz was on puberty blockers. At 17, even though a minor, Jazz underwent multiple genital surgeries to remove his penis and have it inverted. This process was botched and several attempts were made to remedy it, but the reduced size of Jazz’s penis due to years on puberty blockers made an already brutal surgery even worse.

The fungus, Candida aurist, has caused illness and death since it was first detected in the United States. The CDC rates it as an “urgent threat”, the highest level of concern. There are three reasons the CDC has rated the fungus with its highest level of concern- it is multidrug-resistant, it spreads easily in healthcare facilities, and it can cause severe, invasive infections with high mortality rates. The authors of the CDC report wrote that the fungus “has continued to cause illness and death
