This is the case wherein Trump was found to have been illegally hoarding highly sensitive national security materials at his Palm Beach hotel\/home. His attorneys thus far have offered laughably lame excuses for his having done so. And <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=54799\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">those excuses just seemed to get more bizarre<\/a><\/strong> with each new one offered. They ranged from claiming the documents belonged to him, to insisting that everything had been returned, to allegations that the FBI planted them, to his having declassified them with his mind, and more.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=54482\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">WTF? Now Trump Says the FBI Was Looking for Hillary Clinton\u2019s Emails at Mar-a-Lago<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kise was just hired by Trump a few weeks ago. It was reported that he was paid $3 million dollars in advance, because Trump is so well known for stiffing his attorneys. But now Kise is no longer working on the case. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2022\/09\/27\/politics\/chris-kise-trump-mar-a-lago\/index.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">According to CNN<\/a><\/strong>&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;The newest addition to former President Donald Trump\u2019s legal team, Chris Kise, has been sidelined from the Mar-a-Lago documents investigation less than a month after he was brought on to represent Trump in the matter, two sources familiar with the move tell CNN.&#8221; [&#8230;]<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The move is notable given Kise, the former solicitor general for Florida, was brought on to the team after a weeks-long search and struggle to find someone willing to take on the case who was also experienced in Florida law. The legal strategy for fighting the Justice Department following the August seizure of over 100 documents marked as classified was also in disarray.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Trump&#8217;s spokesman, Taylor Budowich, told CNN that <em>&#8220;Kise&#8217;s role as an important member of President Trump\u2019s legal team remains unchanged.&#8221;<\/em> However, he has not been observed at any of the other hearings for the pending Trump investigations, such as the January 6th insurrection or the lawsuit filed by the New York State Attorney General.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=54840\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trump\u2019s Spokes-Shill Admits that He\u2019s Guilty of the Fraud Charges By New York AG Letitia James<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Perhaps Kise made the fatal mistake of giving Trump some rational legal advice. That would surely have resulted in Trump souring on him and shoving him aside. Or maybe Kise outlined the legal peril that Trump is facing and he got depressed. Although <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=54688\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sean Hannity did the same thing a few days ago<\/a><\/strong> so, unless he&#8217;s blocking it out, Trump must know the trouble he&#8217;s in.<\/p>\n<p>At least Kise got well paid for his month of work. And now he can watch from the bleachers as Trump guides his loony legal league through the quagmire that he&#8217;s created for himself. Look for Trump to seek new representation from the only <em>&#8220;lawyers&#8221;<\/em> who would still work for him &#8211; Fox News hosts Jeanine Pirro or Mark Levin. Barring that, he&#8217;d better call Saul (who Trump probably thinks is real).<\/p>\n<p style=\"color:blue;\"><strong>NOTE:<\/strong> Twitter suspended the News Corpse account after 11 years without giving a reason.
