  6. In an opinion dated October 24, 2014, the Honorable Gonzalo P. Curiel of the Southern District of California certified a nationwide class against Donald J. Trump for violations of the federal Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (“RICO”), 18 U.S.C. §1962(c) on behalf of all persons in the United States who purchased Live Events from “Trump University” from January 1, 2007 to the present. The court appointed Robbins Geller to serve as class counsel. Robbins Geller will continue to aggressively pursue the case and prepare for trial. http://www.rgrdlaw.com/news-item-Trump-University-Class-Cert-102814.html Hogan Lovells, Latham & Watkins and White & Case were among the group of firms that paid $1.75 million into Hillary and Bill Clinton coffers, as were large plaintiffs firms Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd and Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, according to a searchable database The Washington Post published last week. The Post compiled a list of companies that have paid the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, for speaking engagements. Robbins Geller hired Hillary Clinton for her talk, the other four firms retained Bill Clinton for his speaking services. According to the database, Robbins Geller paid $225,500 to Hillary Clinton for a speech on Sept. 4, 2014. That discussion was already a matter of public record, but the San Diego-based firm also paid $250,000 to Bill Clinton on two separate occasions. The first was for a speech on Sept. 8, 2009, back when Robbins Geller was known as Coughlin Stoia Geller Rudman & Robbins, while the subsequent Bill Clinton talk took place on Sept. 17, 2013. Radnor, Pennsylvania-based Kessler Topaz, which adopted its current name in 2011, paid $500,000 to Bill Clinton for an engagement on March 7, 2014. Politico reported in May 2015 that Bill Clinton's speech for Kessler Topaz was among his priciest talks since the beginning of 2014, a year in which the former president and his wife took home more than $25 million for making speeches, with Hillary Clinton having left public service after stepping down as secretary of state in February 2013 Read more: http://www.nationallawjournal.com/id=1202758807964/INADMISSIBLE-Big-Firms-Pay-Big-Bucks-for-Clinton-Talks#ixzz4AkVsVz6o
  7. Reading The Gold Coast now, Nelson DeMille. Second time with this book, and have already read the sequel twice.
  8. That's liberalese. Never makes sense and distorts the point. There is a dictionary available....
  9. An independent judiciary is extremely important. But that value is not the only one in play here. Equally important, if not more important from my perspective as a former judge and U.S. attorney general, is a litigant’s right to a fair trial. The protection of that right is a primary reason why our Constitution provides for an independent judiciary. If judges and the trials over which they preside are not perceived as being impartial, the public will quickly lose confidence in the rule of law upon which our nation is based. For this reason, ethics codes for judges — including the federal code of conduct governing Curiel — require not only that judges actually be impartial, but that they avoid even the “appearance of impropriety.” That appearance typically is measured from the standpoint of a reasonable litigant. https://www.washingtonpost.com/posteverything/wp/2016/06/04/alberto-r-gonzales-trump-has-a-right-to-question-whether-hes-getting-a-fair-trial/?platform=hootsuite
  10. Curiel appointed the Robbins Geller law firm to represent plaintiffs. Robbins Geller has paid $675,000 in speaking fees since 2009 to Trump’s likely opponent, Hillary Clinton, and to her husband, former president Bill Clinton.

    38,000

    The Labor Department reported that the U.S. economy added only 38,000 jobs in May, the lowest amount in five years. The unemployment rate fell to 4.7% from 5%, mainly because about half a million unemployed people stopped looking for work. http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-financial-markets-20160603-snap-story.html 'The number of unemployed persons dropped by.................................................. because they gave up looking for work.

    38,000

    Despite a forecast of 160,000 new jobs, the Obama Department of Labor announced that job creation in May plunged to 38,000, the worst monthly performance in 6 years. The May jobs report issued on June 3 came in at 76 percent worse than the Bloomberg average of estimates by 90 Wall Street economists. The addition of just 38,000 workers is the lowest jobs number since September 2010, and is a huge dive from the 123,000 new jobs generated in April. In a statistical fluke, the U.S. unemployment rate declined by 0.3 percentage points, to 4.7 percent in May, as frustrated American workers gave up trying to find jobs and dropped out of the labor force. The total number of Americans not in the labor force also hit a new high, at 94,708,000. The terrible economic performance tanked the foreign exchange rate of the U.S. dollar by almost one percent. The stock market, which was up about one half percent in pre-opening trading, tanked a full percent after the employment news. Employers in May added the fewest number of workers in almost six years, reflecting broad cutbacks that may raise concern about U.S. growth and prompt Federal Reserve policy makers to put off an increase in interest rates. U.S. annual GDP growth had decelerated from a positive 1.4 percent in the October through December 2015 fourth quarter to just 0.8 percent in the first quarter of 2016. But Wall Street analysts had expected a strong rebound to 1.8 percent for the April through June period. Now, with weak May employment numbers, analysts will slash growth estimates. The U.S. Federal Reserve will see puny employment gains as reducing the odds of an upturn in household spending and economic growth after the poor start to the year. With the central bank tightening up its balance sheet in anticipation of starting a cycle of raising interest rates by July, the value of the U.S. dollar had been strengthening. Chicago Fed President Charles Evans told CNBC on June 2, “Two rate hikes in 2016, that’s my own call for that, if the data continues to be in line with my outlook.” A week earlier, Fed Governor Jerome Powell, in a speech to the Peterson Institute for International Economics, stated that economic data in April seemed to support the Federal Reserve raising interest rates. He suggested that inflation may be picking up with durable goods orders rising at a 3.4 percent annual rate, pending home sales hitting new highs and the price of oil jumping to $50 a barrel. The range of estimates by economists surveyed by Bloomberg for the June 3 DOL was 90,000 to 215,000 jobs. The shocking 38,000 May number was also accompanied by grim revisions from the Department of Labor to the prior two months’ reports, which subtracted another 59,000 jobs from payrolls. The hiring stall was broad-based, including slowdowns in construction and manufacturing. Factories cut employment for the third time in the last four months, while construction companies shed 15,000 jobs. The number of Americans working part-time, because they cannot find a full-time position for “economic reasons,” spiked by 400,000 to 6.4 million in May, the highest since rate since August 2015. http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2016/06/03/obamas-jobs-report-worst-6-years/
