“ The hearing that took a dramatic turn after Beeks told the judge he had “divine” authority to participate in the Jan. 6 uprising. Beeks claimed the court had no jurisdiction over him, as he is part of the “Sovereign Citizen” movement, where followers do not believe they are required to abide by government institutions.

“That’s all gobbledygook,” Chief Judge Beryl Howell of the D.C. District Court reportedly told the defendant. “Mr. Beeks, you should be quiet unless spoken to.”

Among the withheld documents is one titled “DRAFT LETTER FROM POTUS TO SEIZE EVIDENCE IN THE INTEREST OF NATIONAL SECURITY FOR THE 2020 ELECTIONS.” Kerik’s attorney Timothy Parlatore provided the privilege log to the panel, which said the file originated on Dec. 17, a day before Trump huddled in the Oval Office with advisers including former Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, where they discussed the option of seizing election equipment in states whose results Trump was attempting to overturn.

Trump ultimately opted against that strategy, but his consideration of the option is one of the key questions the panel is probing as part of its broader investigation into attempts to overturn the election.

It’s unclear whether the letter is related to the same plan and if Trump knew of its existence. Kerik withheld it, describing it as privileged because of its classification as “attorney work product.”

Here’s one of the documents provided to the commiittee

Almost boring in comparison.

The privilege log also notes that Kerik is withholding a “COMPILATION OF RANTS”

Cool story, but as usual, I wish that instead of rioters they’d use something more accurate, like insurrectionists.

I wouldsettle for “rioters” over “tresspassers.” And the judge who objected to jail sentences for “nonviolent first offenders?” WTF was he seeing? Oh, Trump appointee. Nevermind.
