In a tweet published on Thursday , President Donald Trump ’ s eldest son Donald Trump Jr. took aim at Georgia Democrats Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff .
The fate of the U.S. Senate hinges on the two seats currently occupied by Republicans Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue , but their challengers have shot up in the polls , reigniting Democratic hopes of winning control of the upper chamber .
According to Trump Jr. , however , the two moderates are actually part of the “ radicle left.
” Responding to a tweet from conservative activist Jack Posobiec , Trump @ @ @ @ @ @ @ State to vote in the two January runoffs in order to defeat the “ radicle left.
” Posobiec ’ s message pointed out that Warnock is pro-choice and alleged that the Democrat has made several anti-Semitic statements .
The president ’ s eldest son appears to be under the impression that the world “ radical ” is spelled as “ radicle , ” given that this was not the first time for him to make that mistake .
In October , for instance , he posted to Twitter a video featuring President-elect Joe @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this guy is going to stand up to the radicle left , China , or anyone else ?
” In a Twitter post on July 22 , he accused Biden and “ the radicle left ” of wanting to provide health care to undocumented immigrants .
Similarly , earlier that month , Trump Jr. tweeted that the former Delaware senator is adopting Independent Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders ’ “ radicle left agenda ” in order to win the 2020 presidential election .
In yet another Twitter message from that time period , Trump @ @ @ @ @ @ @ eyes ” and accept the fact that Biden , an avowed moderate , is being controlled by the “ radicle left.
” “ The radicle left runs the party and they couldn ’ t be more clear with their intentions , ” he wrote .
Neither of the two Georgia Democrats is part of the “ radicle left , ” as Trump Jr. has repeatedly suggested .
For instance , in a recent interview with Axios , Ossoff said that he does not support single-payer healthcare and the Green New Deal , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Enforcement ’ s ( ICE ) .
Much like his colleague , Warnock does not support universal health care .
As stated on warnockforgeorgia.com , he wants to “ protect , improve and build upon the Affordable Care Act , ” better known as Obamacare , which progressives have long criticized .
That has not stopped Republicans from trying to cast him as a radical , however .

inquisitr--2020-12-11--Joe Biden Could Use Donald Trump’s ‘Favorite Legal Theory’ To Erase His Legacy, Law Professor Says

In a Thursday piece from Politico , law professor Ronald Krotoszynski suggested that President-elect Joe Biden could use the unitary executive theory — which Raw Story called the head of state ’ s “ favorite legal theory ” — to erase Donald Trump ’ s legacy in the government .

According to Politico , Biden could remove Trump ’ s remaining government legacy using the theory , which is notably supported by the president and Attorney @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Krotoszynski , the Federalist Society has long supported the theory , as have Trump-appointed federal judges like Neomi Rao and Brett Kavanaugh .
According to the postulation , the head of state can exercise broad control over the executive branch , which includes officers that hold policymaking posts .
Outgoing Michigan Rep. Justin Amash previously took aim at Trump and Barr ’ s support of the theory , which he suggested acted as support for their purported authoritarian tendencies .
Nevertheless , Krotoszynski argued that the supposition could be effectively used to dismantle @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the columnist , the theory might be Biden ’ s “ only practical option ” to counter some of Trump ’ s last-minute appointments that stand in opposition to the politics of his forthcoming White House team .
Although he acknowledged the possible damage it could do by expanding unilateral presidential authority , he suggested it might be the lesser of two evils compared to the possibility of “ unaccountable government power in the hands of a rogue agency.

According to Politico, Biden could remove Trump’s remaining government legacy using the theory, which is notably supported by the president and Attorney General William Barr.
“Under this theory, President Biden would be constitutionally empowered to remove executive-branch personnel who are opposed to his administration’s policies and programs whether or not they hold a fixed term of office or enjoy statutory good-cause protection against removal.”
As noted by Krotoszynski, the Federalist Society has long supported the theory, as have Trump-appointed federal judges like Neomi Rao and Brett Kavanaugh.

Outgoing Michigan Rep. Justin Amash previously took aim at Trump and Barr’s support of the theory, which he suggested acted as support for their purported authoritarian tendencies. Nevertheless, Krotoszynski argued that the supposition could be effectively used to dismantle Trump’s legacy.
“Given these clear judicial smoke signals, both on and off the bench, the Biden administration would be on solid legal and constitutional ground if it sought to remove the most troubling Trump midnight appointees within the executive branch.”
According to the columnist, the theory might be Biden’s “only practical option” to counter some of Trump’s last-minute appointments that stand in opposition to the politics of his forthcoming White House team. Although he acknowledged the possible damage it could do by expanding unilateral presidential authority, he suggested it might be the lesser of two evils compared to the possibility of “unaccountable government power in the hands of a rogue agency.”

Former ‘Apprentice’ Staffer Says Jared Kushner Is The Reason Donald Trump Passed On Larger Vaccine Supply

Former Apprentice star and comedian Noel Casler is again speculating about Donald Trump ’ s administration — this time about its decision to pass on the chance to buy more of Pfizer ’ s coronavirus vaccine .
According to Casler , the move is linked to Jared Kushner ’ s work behind the scenes .
“ Trump didn ’ t buy more covid vaccine from Pfizer because Jared Kushner hadn ’ t figured out a way to get a piece of the profits on the backend .
Let ’ s be real about this , ” the comedian tweeted .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ panel of vaccine experts endorsed Pfizer ’ s COVID-19 vaccine on Thursday , and it will sit down later this month to discuss doing to the same for Moderna ’ s preparation .
As reported by The Denver Post , the president committed to an initial package of 100 million Pfizer ’ s doses but could have purchased as much as five times more .
The publication claimed that Trump ’ s decision could delay the delivery of a second batch of Pfizer doses due to international contracts that would have priority .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Trump government ’ s vaccine effort , claimed that the decision to opt-out of more Pfizer was to gauge which preparation is more effective .
As for Casler ’ s theory , many social media users appeared to agree that there was at least some scheming within the president ’ s administration to secure greater profits .
“ Creating a shortage just meant he could price gouge on the stuff he did get while killing minorities and poor people in the process , ” one user tweeted .
“ I still can @ @ @ @ @ @ @ been a bigger topic , pretty clear they had information they hid from the public , ” another wrote .
Others suggested the choice was rooted in the Trump government ’ s investment in the Moderna vaccine , which has been touted by Kushner ’ s wife .
According to Fortune , the Pfizer vaccine did not receive funding from Trump ’ s Operation Warp Speed for the development , clinical trial , and manufacturing of its new preparation .
Instead , its partner , BioNTech SE , has allegedly received funding from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The Daily Beast , Kushner was previously moved from his previous role in the “ shadow ” coronavirus task force to helping ensure that a vaccine is developed in record time .
According to two sources familiar with Kushner ’ s involvement , Trump hoped that Kushner ’ s private sector relationships could help to push out a vaccine as soon as possible .
As The Inquisitr reported , Kushner and his wife were previously slammed by The Lincoln Project for their comments and approach to the coronavirus .

Rudy Giuliani Brags About ‘Celebrity’ Treatment In Hospital For COVID-19 After Potentially Exposing Hundreds

Rudy Giuliani appeared to brag about getting “ celebrity ” treatment while hospitalized with COVID-19 — even after health experts said he may have exposed hundreds of people to the deadly virus .

However , they claimed that would not agree to block the four states from finalizing their results .
Not long before the rejection , CNN reported that the president asked Cruz to argue the long-shot lawsuit if the Supreme Court agreed to hear it , which the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Republican Sen. has argued nine cases before the Supreme Court in his career .
On Monday , he took to Twitter to claim he is “ ready to present the oral argument ” in an election fraud case in Pennsylvania , which was ultimately shot down .
As The Inquisitr reported , former federal prosecutor Elie Honig previously laughed off the suggestion that the president ’ s legal cases could be heard by the Supreme Court .

The notorious Zodiac killer’s uncrackable 340 cipher from November 1969 was finally cracked on Friday by a team of code-breakers from Australia, Belgium, and the United States. On the same day, Ted Cruz trended on social media for the news that the Supreme Court would not hear Donald Trump’s election fraud case he was set to argue, which led to some trolling over the timing.
“The Zodiac Killer code gets cracked and in the same evening the Supreme Court denies Ted Cruz his chance to argue Trump’s case before the court. Coincidence? I think not,” tweeted commentator Bill Palmer.
“What are the chances that Ted Cruz and the Zodiac Killer are trending on the same damn day in two different stories?” publicist Danny Deraney tweeted.
“‘Zodiac Killer’ is trending, so ‘what did Ted Cruz do?’ was the first thought I had, because it’s 2020,” writer Mason Pelt joked on Twitter.
Others were not as amused by the jokes.
“Note: At this point if you make a Ted Cruz is the Zodiac joke I may block you —or mute, if we’re friends,” tweeted editor Steve Huff.
As reported by Reuters, the U.S. Supreme Court on Friday rejected a lawsuit filed by Texas that was supported by Trump. The lawsuit was filed by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton on Monday night and sought to overturn the electoral results in four battleground states — Michigan, Georgia, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania. However, the four states claimed in a Thursday court filing that the suit had no legal or factual grounds.

Democrat Asks Nancy Pelosi To Refuse To Seat Republican Congress Members Backing Efforts To Overturn Election

A New Jersey Democrat is calling on Nancy Pelosi to refuse to seat the Republican members of Congress who supported the now-failed efforts to overturn the results of the election and keep Donald Trump in office .
As The Hill reported , Rep. Bill Pascrell asked Pelosi to refuse to seat the more than 120 GOP members of the House of Representatives who signed an amicus brief supporting a Texas lawsuit that would have overturned results in a series of key battlegrounds won by Joe Biden .
If successful , the suit would allow these states to invalidate the vote @ @ @ @ @ @ @ could then choose Trump as the next president .

“ These lawsuits seeking to obliterate public confidence in our democratic system by invalidating the clear results of the 2020 presidential election undoubtedly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Constitution , which each Member swears to support and defend.

Many expressed their support for the idea , with some claiming that the U.S. Constitution gives the House speaker the power to decide against seating those who supported the effort .

The effort to overturn the election fell flat on Friday , with the Supreme Court ruling rejecting the bid .

This is not the first time that a Trump-allied lawyer has been mocked for what were seen as careless mistakes in seeking to overturn the election. As The Inquisitr reported, one lawsuit that pointed to potential fraud in Michigan was actually based on data that came from Minnesota. This was again filed by Wood.
Another lawsuit filed by Sidney Powell cited a witness who claimed that illegal voting may have taken place in Edison County, Michigan. As many pointed out, that is a place that does not exist, as there is no county in Michigan by that name.
The Texas lawsuit, which originated with state Attorney General Ken Paxton, has come under fire from those who see it as an attempt to steal the election for Trump. It seeks to invalidate results in states won by Biden, which would allow them to pick a new set of electors who could then pick Trump as the next president. A total of 17 other Republican state attorneys general have supported the motion, as has the president himself, but legal experts said it has almost no chance of succeeding. Officials from the states named have also blasted it as a publicity stunt and a dangerous attempt to go against the will of the voters.
Trump has continued to insist that he really won the race and was the victim of widespread fraud. He has not conceded to Biden, though his administration has started the formal transition process ahead of the new president’s move into the White House next month.
