[By next week, almost everything in the 2020 election could be different...=
]
=20
We're one day out from the 10th Democratic primary debate, five days out fr=
om the South Carolina primary, and only eight days out from Super Tuesday. =
You'll remember that Joe Biden has largely staked his campaign on South Car=
olina -- which is even more important now that he faltered in Nevada -- so =
there's a lot on the line this weekend.
=20
As you head into this Monday, here's the news you'll want to know.
=20
[In a surprising -- and historic -- moment, the infamously liberal 9th Circ=
uit has been "flipped" by President Trump.]

"Trump has now named 10 judges to the 9th Circuit =E2=80=94 more than one-t=
hird of its active judges =E2=80=94 compared with seven appointed by Presid=
ent Obama over eight years. 'Trump has effectively flipped the circuit,' sa=
id 9th Circuit Judge Milan D. Smith Jr., an appointee of President George W=
. Bush." [Read the full story from the LA Times. <[link removed]
alifornia/story/2020-02-22/trump-conservative-judges-9th-circuit> ]

The 9th Circuit Court was known for judges friendly to far-left interests -=
- and eager to legislate from the judicial bench. But President Trump is ch=
anging that, as he's appointed more than 180 federal judges -- including 10=
to the famous 9th Circuit, which will "flip" the circuit in favor of pro-C=
onstitution judges.
=20
Circuit courts are powerful: they rule on appeals from federal cases -- and=
they shape or re-shape how federal laws and rules are implemented. They're=
the final stop before an appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court ... but since th=
e Supreme Court accepts only a small number of cases each year, most decisi=
ons in circuit courts are not reviewed by the higher court.
=20
That means circuit courts are incredibly important in limiting -- or expand=
ing -- the size, scope, and power of the federal government.
=20
The left has long taken for granted that far-left, ideological judges will =
bend the Constitution to fit whatever their policy goal of the day is.
=20
But with President Trump's rapid pace of judicial appointments, his legacy =
will be a federal judiciary of pro-Constitution judges who faithfully inter=
pret the law -- not try to re-make it for their own purposes.
=20
["Namaste Trump!" President Trump is in India today and joined Indian Prime=
Minister Modi at a massive rally.]

"'Namaste Trump!' Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi shouted to the crowd,=
which repeated it back to a beaming Trump. Standing alongside Modi, Trump =
on Monday inaugurated the brand-new Motera Stadium, lined with 110,000 oran=
ge, yellow and blue seats =E2=80=94 all filled." [Read the full story from =
POLITICO. <[link removed]
tacle-117112> ]

Today President Trump and the First Lady are in India. It's the President's=
first trip to the country since he was elected president -- and the kick-o=
ff to his two days there couldn't have been better.
=20
President Trump was greeted with a massive "MAGA-style" event, as he joined=
Indian Prime Minister Modi at a 100,000-seat cricket stadium to cheers and=
applause from the audience. The main conversations between the two leaders=
will center on trade agreements and a $3-billion defense deal the Presiden=
t announced.

[Brace yourselves. More scare-mongering about Russia and the Trump presiden=
cy is coming.]

"Democrats are raising a ruckus about a news report that Russia plans to me=
ddle in the 2020 presidential campaign to help reelect President Donald Tru=
mp. But further Russian election interference was expected, as special coun=
sel Robert Mueller told Congress last year after his report about Moscow=E2=
=80=99s meddling in the 2016 campaign." [Read the full story from The Daily=
Signal. <[link removed]
to-know-about-new-russia-trump-election-meddling-narrative/> ]

The Democrats just won't let up with their focus on Russia and President Tr=
ump. For goodness sake, it's not like he honeymooned in the USSR (ahem, Ber=
nie) <[link removed]
-missed-his-soviet-honeymoon> .
=20
But more seriously -- to the extent that we should take this seriously -- t=
he Heritage Foundation's Daily Signal has a definitive list of the four thi=
ngs you should know about this latest round of news stories <[link removed]
ilysignal.com/2020/02/21/here-we-go-again-4-things-to-know-about-new-russia=
-trump-election-meddling-narrative/> .

[It's beginning to look a lot like ... a convention fight in Wisconsin this=
summer.]

"Nobody expects to overtake Bernie Sanders between now and the convention. =
That is a startlingly admission that the hour is already late. And further,=
it is a declaration that the candidates might seek the nomination even if =
they came into the hall with less than one-third of the party already behin=
d them." [Read the full story from the National Review. <[link removed]
alreview.com/2020/02/bernie-sanders-democrats-have-already-conceded-to-fron=
t-runner/> ]

No matter how much the Democratic establishment wishes it weren't so, Berni=
e Sanders looks like their party's front-runner -- and he's likely to conti=
nue to rack up primary victories.
=20
But you'll remember the important number in the primary is delegates to the=
Democratic National Convention in Wisconsin this summer. It takes 1,991 de=
legates to win ... and so far, for all the headlines, Sanders has won 34 (t=
hat's 42.5%) of the 80 awarded.
=20
It's possible that he could head into the convention ahead in the delegate =
count, but not totally safe from Democratic challengers who try to rally mo=
re support at the convention. That may become a nightmare for party leaders=
hip ... but it will likely be fascinating to all of us watching at home or =
through social media.

[And the weirdest story of the weekend: was debate moderator Chuck Todd the=
D.C. landlord of Amy Klobuchar?]

"NBC=E2=80=99s Chuck Todd, who moderated Wednesday night=E2=80=99s Las Vega=
s debate, was Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar=E2=80=99s landlord in Arlington,=
Virginia, according to six sources who spoke to Page Six." [Read the full =
story from The Federalist. <[link removed]
-todd-was-amy-klobuchars-landlord-in-arlington/> ]

It's not confirmed by Chuck Todd or Amy Klobuchar ... but six sources told =
the famous Page Six that she had rented a three-bedroom house from Todd whi=
le she lived in D.C.=20
=20
It's regular practice for elected officials to rent a D.C. property, though=
some choose to split spaces as roommates and others sleep in their Congres=
sional offices. But it's odd that -- if the story is true -- no connection =
was noted during the two Democratic primary debates that Chuck Todd has hel=
ped to moderate.
=20
Whatever the political outcome, it's a reminder that the D.C. "swamp" is ve=
ry small indeed.

[The Vote]

[By next week, almost everything in the 2020 election could be different...]

We're one day out from the 10th Democratic primary debate, five days out from the South Carolina primary, and only eight days out from Super Tuesday. You'll remember that Joe Biden has largely staked his campaign on South Carolina -- which is even more important now that he faltered in Nevada -- so there's a lot on the line this weekend.

As you head into this Monday, here's the news you'll want to know.

[In a surprising -- and historic -- moment, the infamously liberal 9th Circuit has been "flipped" by President Trump.]

"Trump has now named 10 judges to the 9th Circuit — more than one-third of its active judges — compared with seven appointed by President Obama over eight years. 'Trump has effectively flipped the circuit,' said 9th Circuit Judge Milan D. Smith Jr., an appointee of President George W. Bush." [Read the full story from the LA Times. <[link removed]> ]

The 9th Circuit Court was known for judges friendly to far-left interests -- and eager to legislate from the judicial bench. But President Trump is changing that, as he's appointed more than 180 federal judges -- including 10 to the famous 9th Circuit, which will "flip" the circuit in favor of pro-Constitution judges.

Circuit courts are powerful: they rule on appeals from federal cases -- and they shape or re-shape how federal laws and rules are implemented. They're the final stop before an appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court ... but since the Supreme Court accepts only a small number of cases each year, most decisions in circuit courts are not reviewed by the higher court.

That means circuit courts are incredibly important in limiting -- or expanding -- the size, scope, and power of the federal government.

The left has long taken for granted that far-left, ideological judges will bend the Constitution to fit whatever their policy goal of the day is.

But with President Trump's rapid pace of judicial appointments, his legacy will be a federal judiciary of pro-Constitution judges who faithfully interpret the law -- not try to re-make it for their own purposes.

["Namaste Trump!" President Trump is in India today and joined Indian Prime Minister Modi at a massive rally.]

"'Namaste Trump!' Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi shouted to the crowd, which repeated it back to a beaming Trump. Standing alongside Modi, Trump on Monday inaugurated the brand-new Motera Stadium, lined with 110,000 orange, yellow and blue seats — all filled." [Read the full story from POLITICO. <[link removed]> ]

Today President Trump and the First Lady are in India. It's the President's first trip to the country since he was elected president -- and the kick-off to his two days there couldn't have been better.

President Trump was greeted with a massive "MAGA-style" event, as he joined Indian Prime Minister Modi at a 100,000-seat cricket stadium to cheers and applause from the audience. The main conversations between the two leaders will center on trade agreements and a $3-billion defense deal the President announced.

[Brace yourselves. More scare-mongering about Russia and the Trump presidency is coming.]

"Democrats are raising a ruckus about a news report that Russia plans to meddle in the 2020 presidential campaign to help reelect President Donald Trump. But further Russian election interference was expected, as special counsel Robert Mueller told Congress last year after his report about Moscow’s meddling in the 2016 campaign." [Read the full story from The Daily Signal. <[link removed]> ]

The Democrats just won't let up with their focus on Russia and President Trump. For goodness sake, it's not like he honeymooned in the USSR (ahem, Bernie) <[link removed]> .

But more seriously -- to the extent that we should take this seriously -- the Heritage Foundation's Daily Signal has a definitive list of the four things you should know about this latest round of news stories <[link removed]> .

[It's beginning to look a lot like ... a convention fight in Wisconsin this summer.]

"Nobody expects to overtake Bernie Sanders between now and the convention. That is a startlingly admission that the hour is already late. And further, it is a declaration that the candidates might seek the nomination even if they came into the hall with less than one-third of the party already behind them." [Read the full story from the National Review. <[link removed]> ]

No matter how much the Democratic establishment wishes it weren't so, Bernie Sanders looks like their party's front-runner -- and he's likely to continue to rack up primary victories.

But you'll remember the important number in the primary is delegates to the Democratic National Convention in Wisconsin this summer. It takes 1,991 delegates to win ... and so far, for all the headlines, Sanders has won 34 (that's 42.5%) of the 80 awarded.

It's possible that he could head into the convention ahead in the delegate count, but not totally safe from Democratic challengers who try to rally more support at the convention. That may become a nightmare for party leadership ... but it will likely be fascinating to all of us watching at home or through social media.

[And the weirdest story of the weekend: was debate moderator Chuck Todd the D.C. landlord of Amy Klobuchar?]

"NBC’s Chuck Todd, who moderated Wednesday night’s Las Vegas debate, was Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar’s landlord in Arlington, Virginia, according to six sources who spoke to Page Six." [Read the full story from The Federalist. <[link removed]> ]

It's not confirmed by Chuck Todd or Amy Klobuchar ... but six sources told the famous Page Six that she had rented a three-bedroom house from Todd while she lived in D.C.

It's regular practice for elected officials to rent a D.C. property, though some choose to split spaces as roommates and others sleep in their Congressional offices. But it's odd that -- if the story is true -- no connection was noted during the two Democratic primary debates that Chuck Todd has helped to moderate.

Whatever the political outcome, it's a reminder that the D.C. "swamp" is very small indeed.
