Bobby CapucciHOST
The amount and controversy in this action exceeds the sum or value of $75,000, excluding interest and costs, and is between citizens of different states.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Accordingly, jurisdiction is proper under U.S. Code 28, Section 1332.
Bobby CapucciHOST
21.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Venue is proper in this court as Epstein's sexual abuse of plaintiff began in New York, New York, where he recruited her at age 20 and began grooming her for sex in his organized sex trafficking ring.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Many of the events giving rise to these causes of action occurred in the Southern District of New York, where a substantial amount of Epstein's property is located.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Thus, the venue in this district is proper.
Bobby CapucciHOST
U.S. Code 28.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Section 1391, B and 2.
Ben BraschGUEST
But here we are.
Michael SchafferHOST
And the person he ran against in the Democratic primary, the major candidate he ran against, was a fellow D.C. council member, Brooke Pinto, which is to say she, too, would have been affected by this provision that no one talked about on the campaign trail, because I don't think most people make it a practice to go back and read the U.S. Code section establishing this office in 1970.
Ben BraschGUEST
Not I.
Ben BraschGUEST
No, that's not the type of literature I'm reading usually.
Peymon MottahedehGUEST
This is what the law says.
Peymon MottahedehGUEST
You can verify it at uscode.house.gov, which is Lawyers of Congress publishing the laws.
Peymon MottahedehGUEST
ECFR.gov, where U.S. Treasury regulations are published and U.S. Supreme Court cases.
Peymon MottahedehGUEST
So the law is written that way.
Larry ConnersHOST
But what he's talking about, we already have federal requirements stopping it.
Larry ConnersHOST
18 USC, U.S. Code, making it a federal crime for specific categories of individuals to ship, transport, receive, or possess firearms or ammunition.
Larry ConnersHOST
You cannot have one delivered to your home by mail or by FedEx or whatever else you want.
Larry ConnersHOST
And if you're a gun dealer, you have additional efforts you have to go through.
Philip TeresiHOST
Secondly, The suit does not mention any federal law that is violated by any of this.
Philip TeresiHOST
The only citation from the DOJ is U.S. Code 52, subsection 20,051B3, the preamble to the National Voter Registration Act, which states that the purpose of the statute is, quote, "...to protect the integrity of the electoral process." National Review says a lot of the worst mischief in election law litigation in the past couple of decades has come from Democrats attempting to persuade liberal judges to read broad powers of judicial activism into vaguely worded constitutional and statutory provisions promising fair elections.
Philip TeresiHOST
The argument here is that Republicans would live to regret turning the preamble of the National Voter Registration Act into a freestanding judicial warrant to stop any election or campaign practice that strikes any district judge as dishonest or unfair.
Philip TeresiHOST
Congress never intended any such thing.
Rose MagnisiGUEST
And now Kushner, in my opinion, Kushner should not be allowed to work in the White House.
Rose MagnisiGUEST
Five U.S. Code, subsection 3110, is the primary federal law restricting nepotism, prohibiting public officials, including members of Congress and agency employees, from appointing, promoting, or advocating for the employment of relatives in positions over which they exercise authority.
Rose MagnisiGUEST
And I think The employment is the key word there because he's supposedly not being paid.
Rose MagnisiGUEST
It defines relative to include parents, children, siblings, aunts, uncles, and in-laws.
8 MINS LATER
Rose MagnisiGUEST
So...
John MooreHOST
Well, I need to jump right in here.
John MooreHOST
What was signed by George W. Bush was a public law, which is not a law that's part of U.S. Code Title 18.
John MooreHOST
It has no more effect as far as being enforced than National Ice Cream Day.
speaker_2HOST
It doesn't work like that.
speaker_1HOST
Title V of the U.S. Code dictates a highly complex process involving retention registers, veterans' preference weighting, and seniority rankings to determine who stays and who goes.
speaker_2HOST
And Congress utilized that moratorium to temporarily freeze the administration's ability to execute those sweeping structural layoffs.
speaker_2HOST
They mandated that the government could reopen, but the sweeping organizational cuts had to pause.
John FawcettHOST
Upon conviction, offense, the defendant, James Brian Comey, shall forfeit the United States pursuant to...
John FawcettHOST
U.S. Code, any property, real personal, constitutes or derived proceeds from the traceable to the offense, if any property described above, as a result of the act of omission of the defendant, that is all proceeds from his book or speaking fees or anything that Mr. James Comey was able to get from this.
John FawcettHOST
Now, the interesting thing about this, folks, is He can't claim negligence because in 2016, I'm sorry, 2017, Comey sat before Congress and literally acknowledged the very crime that he had committed just months earlier.
John FawcettHOST
is indeed a crime.
speaker_10SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
We are here in this emergency posture because of ongoing irreparable harm defendants are causing by allowing non-citizens to vote in violation of federal and their own state laws.
speaker_11SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
The executive branch may not like the way that California administers its elections, but nothing in the Constitution, the U.S. Code, or any other source of law entitles it to the extraordinary remedy that it's seeking.
Tony CabreraHOST
The Justice Department claims California sent ballots to about 20,000 potential non-citizens, but state officials say the federal government's list is unverified and mistakenly includes eligible voters.
Tony CabreraHOST
The federal judges appeared skeptical of the federal government's request during the hearing.
Cara DiMareHOST
All right.
Cara DiMareHOST
And the U.S. Code actually provides that courts must set aside agency action findings and conclusions that they find to be arbitrary, capricious and abusive discretion or otherwise not in accordance with the law.
Cara DiMareHOST
All right.
Cara DiMareHOST
And so the courts do have the power to override that.
