WHAT IF ROY MOORE WINS? By Scott Rasmussen November 23, 2017 When Donald Trump appointed Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions to serve as Attorney General, it was widely assumed that his permanent replacement would be a Republican. But the scandals and allegations surrounding Republican nominee Roy Moore have challenged that assumption. It would be a stunning turn of events for a Democrat to win in a state Donald Trump won by 28 percentage points. If that happens, as I noted last week, Democrats might win control of the Senate in 2018. Continue Reading…..

New Law Moots Freedom Watch’s NSA Lawsuits: Judge By Kyle Jahner Law360, Washington (November 22, 2017, 7:52 PM EST) — A D.C. federal judge dismissed two lawsuits filed in 2013 by the founder of conservative advocacy group Freedom Watch Inc. against the National Security Agency, ruling Tuesday that a 2015 law barring its indiscriminate bulk metadata collection programs mooted the lawsuits’ request for injunctive relief.

By Larry Klayman, Chairman and General Counsel Freedom Watch November 22, 2017 Hillary Clinton, the Wicked Witch of the Left, has spent the last week largely protesting that if a special counsel is finally appointed to investigate and likely prosecute her racketeering enterprise known as the Clinton Foundation — which took bribes on her and Bill’s behalf to grease the sale of uranium to Russian interests — it would be an abuse of process and an affront to the rule of law. Notwithstanding my petition to be appointed that special counsel at the direction of President Donald Trump (Go…
