John Eastman, testifying at his own disbarment trial, sidestepped a question Wednesday about whether he and others in former President Donald Trump’s orbit discussed the possibility that Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) — rather than Mike Pence — would preside over the Jan. 6, 2021, session of Congress.

During several hours of sworn testimony in a California disbarment proceeding, Eastman said discussions on that topic were protected by attorney-client privilege. When pressed about which client of his he was referring to, Eastman replied: “President Trump.”

It was a notable exchange in an extraordinary day of testimony from Eastman, who is seeking to defend his license to practice law in California even as he faces criminal charges in Georgia, where he is one of Trump’s 18 codefendants in an alleged conspiracy to subvert the 2020 election. Despite his criminal risk, Eastman fielded dozens of questions for hours on Wednesday, declining to assert his Fifth Amendment rights and only occasionally asserting attorney-client privilege.

Every member of the House and Senate should be behind Senator J.D. Vance and his bill to BAN federal mask mandates.

Masks don’t work and no one should be forced to wear one, especially our kids.

I’m introducing a bill in the House tomorrow to end this madness.

SEN. SCHUMER: "The last thing Americans need right now is a pointless government shutdown. A shutdown will hurt just about every American, and yet there are some on the hard-right in the House who say they actually want a shutdown! It's hard to believe..."

🚨Just a day before the start of the G-20 Summit (ie 8th September) China has issued a NOTAM warning for military exercises and most probably launching of some projectile towards the East China Sea.

Also worth noting that Xi Jinping pulled out from attending the G-20 Summit which is to be held in New Delhi, India.
