‘Compelling evidence’ Donald Trump committed crimes, Jan 6 hearings reveal

As the January 6 hearings continue, some experts believe there is ‘compelling evidence’ Donald Trump did in fact commit crimes

Speaking to the Guardian, ex-justice department lawyers say the hearings could lead to charges against the former president, including conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding or defrauding the United States.

Following the January 20-20 election, Trump did everything he could to discredit the result, and prevent Biden’s rise to power.

The investigative panel is planning to hold six hearings in total, analysing what Republican Liz Cheney labels as Trump’s “sophisticated seven-part plan” to overturn the election result.

The findings so far indicate Trump was told repeatedly by top aides and cabinet officials the election was NOT stolen, and these claims were “complete bullshit”.

But Trump persisted despite all of this advice, pushing ahead with the support of key allies including ex-personal attorney Rudy Giuliani.

Trump teases 2024 Presidential run

Former President Donald Trump has made his first appearance since the January 6 hearings kicked off. He appeared in true Trump style with a bold speech to religious conservatives at the Faith & Freedom Coalition’s annual conference in Nashville.

Trump labeled the January 6 hearings as a “theatrical production of partisan political fiction” and insisted he is innocent, despite damning evidence against him.

“What you’re seeing is a complete and total lie. It’s a complete and total fraud… It was a simple protest that got out of hand.”

He also commented Mike Pence, who was Vice President at the time of the Capitol riots. He told the crowd “Mike did not have the courage to act”.

Referring once again to his allegations of election fraud and Pence’s so-called failure to act.

At the recent rally, Trump also announced his intention to run for president speaking of the ‘hatred’ continuously expressed by those he calls ‘the radical left‘.

So what are Trump’s key priorities if he does run for President of the United States again?

“He wants to exbunge what happened in 2020…He wants to have a dominant position…He wants to clear the field…
I don’t think there’s any lack of desire or intent on Trump’s part to run for President in 2024″

US stocks tumble as tech giants report uneven earnings, prompting fears of a looming market correction.

US stocks have taken a sharp dive as investors grow nervous about stretched valuations and uneven earnings reports from tech giants. Major Wall Street banks, including Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs, are warning that the rally could be nearing a 10% correction – a wake-up call for traders betting on unstoppable market momentum.

Nvidia, the world’s most valuable public company, dropped nearly 4%, wiping out around $200 billion in market value. Meanwhile, Palantir slid 6%, dragging other AI and semiconductor names lower. Even gold — a traditional safe haven — dipped 1.6%, signaling widespread investor anxiety.

Bitcoin also broke below the $100,000 mark for the first time since June, underscoring how jittery markets have become. As earnings season unfolds and the US government shutdown looms, investors are questioning whether the bull run that lifted the S&P 35% since April has finally run out of steam.

Former Vice President Dick Cheney dies at 84, leaving a controversial legacy in American politics and national security.

Former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney has died at the age of 84, marking the end of one of the most influential — and controversial — political careers in modern American history. Cheney served under four Republican presidents, most notably George W. Bush, where he became known as one of the most powerful vice presidents in U.S. history.

His family confirmed he passed away from complications related to pneumonia and heart disease. Cheney’s decades in Washington were defined by his hardline approach to national security and his role in shaping America’s response to the September 11 attacks.

Even after leaving office, Cheney remained a strong defender of his policies, particularly the 2003 invasion of Iraq. His passing leaves behind a complicated legacy — one that reshaped U.S. foreign policy and continues to influence Republican politics today.

Nasdaq sell-off worsens as AI stock valuations spark investor concerns and Palantir shares plummet despite strong earnings

In Short:
– Stocks fell due to concerns over AI valuations; S&P 500 down 1.2%, Nasdaq down 1.9%.
– Palantir shares dropped 9% despite strong performance, raising questions about sustainability of high valuations.

Stocks fell on Tuesday as investor concerns regarding artificial intelligence valuations impacted major indices.

The S&P 500 declined by 1.2%, and the Nasdaq Composite dropped by 1.9%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 304 points, equating to a 0.6% decrease.Palantir shares dropped 9%, despite the company’s strong third-quarter performance and positive forecasts attributed to its AI sector growth. The stock has surged over 150% this year, yet trades at over 200 times its forward earnings, leading investors to question whether such valuations can be sustained.

Other tech stocks also faced declines, including Oracle and AMD, which saw drops of 4% and more than 3%, respectively.

Gains in AI stocks have inflated the S&P 500’s price-earnings ratio above 23, raising concerns about stock valuations. Ameriprise market strategist Anthony Saglimbene highlighted potential risks, stating that investors are questioning if future profit growth will support high capital expenditures.

Market Outlook

Comments from executives at Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley further added to market worries.

Both firms predicted potential market pullbacks, with drawdowns of 10% to 20% possible within the next two years. Saglimbene noted a narrow market breadth in recent months, suggesting limited alternatives if a downturn occurs in the tech sector.
