Proud Boys members call for Pam Bondi's resignation for seeking to dismiss their $100 million lawsuit

Attorney General Pam Bondi and the Justice Department are facing blowback over their effort to block a lawsuit from members of the far-right Proud Boys, who are seeking financial reimbursement for their criminal cases and imprisonment for offenses stemming from the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riot.

The Proud Boys Jan. 6 rioters, who met in a social media "X spaces" gathering last month, are calling for Bondi's resignation, after the Justice Department filed a motion in federal court in Florida last week, asking a judge to dismiss a civil lawsuit filed by Enrique Tarrio, Zachary Rehl, Domenic Pezzola and other Proud Boys. All the men were imprisoned for their roles in the riot before President Trump pardoned them on the day he was inaugurated for his second term.

The Proud Boys' lawsuit seeks more than $100 million in damages and alleges the men suffered "A parade of horribles: egregious and systemic abuse of the legal system and the United States Constitution to punish and oppress political allies of President Trump, by any and all means necessary, legal, or illegal."

"Through the use of evidence tampering, witness intimidation, violations of attorney-client privilege, and placing spies to report on trial strategy, the government got its fondest wish of imprisoning the J6 Defendants," the lawsuit claims.

In a filing on Aug. 25, the Justice Department responded that the Jan. 6 defendants had not yet exhausted administrative remedies before they filed suit and also argued the U.S. enjoys sovereign immunity from such claims.

An attorney for Jan. 6 defendants sent a statement to CBS News, saying, "Motions to dismiss are a common reaction to a civil complaint, and we anticipated that the attorney the government assigned to the case would make such a motion. We are confident that the Court will see that the Federal government's outrageous treatment of my clients justifies allowing the suit to continue. "

In their publicly posted X spaces meeting video, Jan. 6 defendants and supporters blistered the Justice Department for opposing the Proud Boys' civil challenge.

Isaac Thomas, a pardoned Jan. 6 defendant from Michigan who participated in the meeting, said, "Unfortunately, Pam Bondi's DOJ seems to be advocating for the same things that the Biden regime was advocating for. A long time ago, I joined the call of Trump supporters saying that Pam Bondi needs to step down." Thomas said the Jan. 6 defendants "have been dumped out."

Mark McCloskey, an attorney who said he is seeking financial payments for Capitol riot defendants, said in the video he was "very disappointed" in the Justice Department's challenge to the Proud Boys lawsuit. He said if the Justice Department opposes other legal challenges seeking restitution or financial awards for Jan. 6 defendants, "It's going to make our lives very difficult."

He predicted more legal challenges would be coming, as some of the more than 1,500 Jan. 6 defendants pursue financial compensation, and he referenced "hundreds" of people who could be impacted.

The Justice Department did not have an immediate comment to the recent Jan. 6 defendants' online meeting.

The civil lawsuit filed by Proud Boys members also alleges malicious prosecution and violation of Fourth Amendment protections, claims that the Justice Department rebutted in its response to the suit.

In their Aug. 25 filing, the Justice Department argued the Proud Boys defendants failed to sufficiently demonstrate the case was "malicious" and that their constitutional rights had been violated. The 17-page filing from the department did not address whether the men had been rightfully or wrongfully convicted by a jury.

The Proud Boys also allege harsh conditions in jail in their lawsuit, and it referenced the language used in President Trump's pardon order for Capitol insurrection defendants, which said, "This proclamation ends a grave national injustice that has been perpetrated upon the American people over the last four years and is a process of national reconciliation."

An attorney who filed the suit did not immediately respond to requests for comment from CBS News.

A Justice Department attorney who filed the motion to dismiss the Jan. 6 defendants' lawsuit has been harshly criticized by name on social media. In one instance, the attorney was referred to as being one of the "swamp rats." News of the Justice Department court filing also triggered a wave of critical comments about the department in a weekend social media post by a media outlet aligned with Trump supporter Mike Lindell, who made baseless claims about the 2020 election.

They want the federal government to give them 100 million dollars so they are well funded and better prepared for their next coup attempt.

Graham says he would support third Trump term in 2028

Graham says he would support third Trump term in 2028

South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) says he would like to see President Trump run for a third term in 2028, even though the 22nd Amendment limits a president to serving two terms.

“Trump 2028. I hope this never ends,” Graham told Fox News host Sean Hannity late Tuesday.

Graham made the comment in response to Hannity’s questions about Trump’s handling of the war in Ukraine and recent Russian incursions into the airspace of NATO allies, including Estonia and Poland.

The South Carolina senator said Trump doesn’t want to provoke a war with Moscow but is doing everything he can to deter Russian aggression in Europe.

“He tried to go out of his way to get Putin to the table. We don’t want to humiliate Russia, we just want to end the war, and to our friends in Russia, here’s what Trump did today. He told NATO, ‘I’ll sell you all the weapons you want to, you can provide them to Ukraine, and as to Ukraine, you can use them anyway you want,’” Graham said.

Trump earlier this year did not rule out running for a third term, telling NBC News: “A lot of people want me to do it.”

“But, I mean, I basically tell them we have a long way to go, you know, it’s very early in the administration,” he said.

When asked if he would want to serve a third term, Trump said, “I like working.”

I wasn't alive when the Dems did that to everyone with FDR but I would be aligned.

I know you don't like facts and history getting in the way of things, but here goes...

1. The 22nd amendment was passed AFTER FDR's death. The 2-term thing was an informal precedent set by Washington, but there were no laws in place to prevent it (several had tried but weren't as popular as FDR).

2. There was a World War going on that was preceded by the Great Depression. It's easy to see the argument for established leadership during a time like that.

LMAO - LONG LIVE KING TRUMP.

I'm certain you would have felt the same had Obama wanted to run for term 3 ... bat chit crazy hypocrites everywhere. Nauseating.

Exactly what did Dems do? I mean, there wasn't a law or rule against electing FDR to 4 terms. so what it came down to is, the american people loved FDR and wanted him to stay in office.

Today we have a law/rule/amendment against that and to prevent that from happening again.



So tell me again what did Dems do and exactly what would you be aligned with?

Exactly.

I like President Trump but talk about him running is moot. I think most of that talk is on agitate a Dem day.

If it actually stated to gain traction, I would actively be against it. Not because it was President Trump. It would simply be that I don't ever want to see any President gain 3 terms.

The only exception would be is if a VP took office mid term because the President died or whatever. Then the former VP should be allowed to run for their 2 elected terms, as is currently the case.

This got me to chuckle. To your point, if we're going to get riled up about this I think it'd be more about what a stooge Graham is vs anything else.

Even Graham knows it won't happen. He was asked about it and said he would be for it...kind of goes back to agitate a Dem.

If the question was "would he vote to change the law of the land" I think his answer would be much different...it might not be a no, but more in the lines of word salad with nothing being said to avoid being on record of saying yes.

As you know, politicians are pretty good at doing that.

I agree with your 'agitate a dem' point. I just think the rest is giving Graham more benefit of the doubt than he's earned.

Yet congress is investigating every democrat trump considers a political enemy and he is calling for them to be prosecuted. Yet nobody seems to know what crimes it is they committed to be charged for. That goes quite a bit further than agitate a Dem.

At some point people who think the way you do need to look around and realize the depth of what's happening.

https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-eligible-third-term-maga-poll-2028-2059883

A SurveyUSA poll of 2,491 registered voters found that 21 percent of all respondents said Trump was eligible for a third term in the White House, while 49 percent of MAGA-identifying Republicans said the same.


Just looking at this board you have someone so twisted and f'd up they have declard they are also behind Trump running for a 3rd term ... I think dismissing this might be premature.

Trump demands investigation into escalator 'triple sabotage' despite U.N. explanation

The United Nations said it has launched a probe into Trump's concerns, though it had already made clear that the escalator was likely halted by a White House staffer.

The escalator escalation keeps escalating.

President Donald Trump has demanded an investigation into what he called a “triple sabotage” at the United Nations General Assembly, including his allegation that an escalator was deliberately halted while he and first lady Melania Trump were riding it.

The U.N. says the escalator was likely stopped when a White House videographer accidentally triggered a safety mechanism. Nonetheless, Secretary-General António Guterres' office said late Wednesday that it had ordered a "thorough investigation" into the three incidents mentioned by Trump, and was "ready to cooperate in full transparency" to find out what caused them.

That came after Trump posted a 358-word complaint on Truth Social detailing “three very sinister events.”

Aside from the escalator issue, he saw malice in faults with his teleprompter and audio during his speech to the assembly, in which he had initially made light of the issues and told Western nations “your countries are going to hell” over immigration.

“This wasn’t a coincidence, this was triple sabotage at the UN,” Trump wrote. “They ought to be ashamed of themselves. I’m sending a copy of this letter to the Secretary General, and I demand an immediate investigation.”

In what has become a fraught back-and-forth between the White House and the General Assembly, U.N. spokesman Stéphane Dujarric detailed the sequence of events that caused the escalator to halt.

"A readout of the machine's central processing unit indicated that the escalator had stopped after a built-in safety mechanism" was "triggered at the top of the escalator," likely by the White House videographer who had boarded before the president and first lady, Dujarric said. That safety mechanism "is designed to prevent people or objects accidentally being caught and stuck in or pulled into the gearing," he said.

That did not appear to satisfy Trump, who described the escalator as coming to a “screeching halt.”

“It stopped on a dime. It’s amazing that Melania and I didn’t fall forward onto the sharp edges of these steel steps, face first,” he wrote. “It was only that we were each holding the handrail tightly or, it would have been a disaster.”

He referenced reporting in Britain’s Sunday Times newspaper that had said that U.N. staff had been overheard joking about turning off the building’s escalators and elevators to highlight a funding shortfall caused by White House cuts. This reporting has not been confirmed by NBC News.

“This was absolutely sabotage,” Trump said, adding that the Secret Service were now involved. “The people that did it should be arrested!”

The is just the latest show of hostility by Trump and his supporters toward the U.N. and other such global bodies.

During his speech Tuesday, he accused the U.N. of leading a “globalist migration agenda” and “funding an assault on Western countries and their borders,” adding that “the U.N. is supposed to stop invasions, not create them and finance them.”

Snowflake say what?

OMG - lies more lies and pure insanity during his speech at the UN. Mind boggling.

You mean the usual?

I appreciate your sentiment and agree
Dem or Rep => no more than 2 elected terms

As for if the VP takes over, that has been clearly delineated.
If he takes over before the mid point, then that counts as one term and he can only be elected one more time
If he takes over after the mid point then he can be elected to 2 additional terms

So definitely the 25th amendment will never be invoked until 2 years and one day into a president's term
That applies to trump now
As well as biden and trump's 1st
And for future presidents

Caveat, the 25th actually gets invoked all the time on a temporary basis
If the president ever needs surgery or a colonoscopy or something where he gets sedated
I am referring just to the permanent removal of a president based on the 25th

Let the orange dick-tater try to run again. He’s lost his extra votes…. No latino, no black, and few independents would vote for him. He would have no chance without cheating…. Again.

First, if he and MAGA are doing that to agitate Dems, then it's a waste of time and energy. It's childish and petty.

Secondly, I don't think he's kidding. I believe he wants a third term.. I believe he'll do anything Stephen Miller tells him to do to get that next term.

I'm happy you would be against it, but like a lot of things that trump does, when he talks about it, you fluff it off as not likely, then he commits and you fall in line.

I'm not at all sure what Trump has on all these Republicans... I mean Old School Republicans. But whatever it is, it's ugly.

But if Trump tries it, Maybe Obama should run again. You wanna talk about ruffling feathers,,, YIKES

According to the way some people post about random idiots and claiming they represent 'The Left' or 'The Libs' or all of 'The Dems' .... it must mean they think this ICE agent represents all of the ICE agents. And this happened in a Courthouse, imagine what they are doing out there in the back streets and alleys.

I hope the Trump supporters that agree Trump can get a third term are ready for Obama’s third term.
