YO @TheSunUS I just called and left a voicemail after forwarding you an important email with regards to this matter you reported on with this article

Who have David Schoen and Bruce Castor defended?
DONALD Trump's second impeachment trial is set to begin on Tuesday, February 9, in the Senate.
Trump is the only president in US history to be impeached twice by the House of Representatives. He was charged with "incitement of insurrection" in connection with the January 6 attack on the US Capitol.
* Read our Donald Trump impeachment live blog for the very latest news and updates on the former president...
Who have David Schoen and Bruce Castor defended?
Schoen has done extensive work on public interest and civil rights cases in the south about matters dealing with police, prison violence and ballot access.
Among his many cases, he played a significant role in a class-action lawsuit that challenged Alabama’s foster care system and led to improvements.
He represented the Ku Klux Klan in successfully challenging a law that forbade them from marching while wearing hoods and without paying a fee.
Schoen recently made headlines after expressing his belief that Jeffrey Epstein did not commit suicide, contradicting the findings of a medical examiner's determination.
The 62-year-old has over 30 years of experiences in practice, and has "complex litigation experience as lead counsel in trial and appellate courts throughout the country," his website explains.
Schoen met with Epstein nine days before his death, and said that based on Epstein's demeanor and excitement about new legal strategies, and citing the nature of his injuries, he believed Epstein did not kill himself.
“I don’t think it was a suicide,” Schoen said in the interview at the time.
"I don’t know what happened. I don’t have a conspiracy theory.”
Bruce Castor served two terms as the district attorney for Montgomery County, Pennsylvania.
He also had a stint as the Pennsylvania solicitor general.
Castor, 59, earned his law degree from Washington and Lee University.
The 59-year-old has since worked as a criminal defense lawyer.
He is most famous for his unapologetic defense of his decision in 2005 not to prosecute Bill Cosby after a Temple University employee, Andrea Constand, accused him of drugging and sexually assaulting her.
In 2002, when Castor was a district attorney, he fought the release from prison of a man who was exonerated of a rape conviction by a DNA test.
The prisoner, Bruce Godschalk, had confessed to detectives but recanted long before his trial, but Castor had opposed allowing his DNA to be tested.
Both will be representing former President Trump at his upcoming impeachment trial, however neither have worked with each other in the past.
It remains unclear who has primacy as the lead lawyer on the team.
On February 2, both Schoen and Castor's previewed their defense strategy, in it they argued Trump did not incite the crowd "to engage in destructive behavior".
The lawyers also insisted that Trump's statements from that day are protected by his First Amendment right to freedom of speech.
'DELUSIONAL'
Bannon 'said Trump had dementia in plot to oust him so HE could be president'"After the November election, the 45th President exercised his First Amendment right under the Constitution to express his belief that the election results were suspect, since with very few exceptions, under the convenient guise of Covid-19 pandemic 'safeguards' states election laws and procedures were changed by local politicians or judges without the necessary approvals from state legislatures," Trump's lawyers wrote.
"Insufficient evidence exists upon which a reasonable jurist could conclude that the 45th President's statements were accurate or not, and he therefore denies they were false."

> Key Facts
>
> Dominion is suing Powell for spreading a baseless conspiracy theory
> alleging its voting machines fraudulently flipped votes to Joe Biden.
>
> Wood said on Telegram Friday that Powell called him Thursday night and
> asked him to serve as her lead counsel in the case, adding, “I quickly
> accepted.”
>
> Powell’s attorney Howard Kleinhendler confirmed to Forbes in an email
> that Wood will be joining the legal team.
>
> “Sidney and I will not be intimidated,” Wood wrote, claiming he and
> Powell “will not go quietly into the night.”
>
> Wood frequently appeared alongside Powell after the election to push
> the Dominion fraud claims and was involved with her lawsuits aimed at
> overturning the results of the election.
>
> Dominion has sent a letter to Wood warning it may bring a defamation
> lawsuit against him, asked social media networks to preserve his posts
> and singled out Wood in its lawsuit against Rudy Giuliani as being
> particularly “determined to promote” the conspiracy theory against
> them (the company declined to comment on Wood’s involvement in
> Powell’s case).
> Crucial Quote
>
> “Get ready to rumble, Dominion,” Wood wrote on Telegram. “You made a
> mistake suing Sidney. You are going to pay a heavy price.”
> What To Watch For
>
> Wood is facing wide-ranging consequences for spreading conspiracy
> theories since the election, which included outlandish claims
> involving former Vice President Mike Pence and U.S. Supreme Court
> Chief Justice John Roberts. He has been removed from an unrelated
> Delaware case over his conduct, and attorneys for MSNBC host Joy Reid
> have asked him to be removed as attorney in a separate defamation
> case. The Georgia State Bar has also confirmed it is moving forward
> with an inquiry into Wood’s mental health in light of his
> post-election behavior, which could result in his license to practice
> law potentially being revoked.
> Tangent
>
> Wood’s defense of Powell comes after he recently tried to distance
> himself from her post-election lawsuits in Wisconsin, Michigan and
> Arizona in a court filing in the defamation case against Reid. After
> the MSNBC host’s attorney pointed to Wood’s appearance with Powell as
> co-counsel in the suits as a reason for him to be removed from her
> case, he noted that he was “not counsel of record” in those cases and
> did not try to seek privileges to argue the case in court. He did
> acknowledge having a larger involvement in Powell’s Georgia lawsuit.
> Key Background
>
> Dominion has launched a large-scale legal effort to seek damages for
> the right-wing conspiracy smears it has faced, suing Powell and
> Giuliani and vowing subsequent lawsuits that could potentially target
> conservative media outlets, Trump allies and potentially even former
> President Donald Trump himself. Powell has also been sued by Dominion
> competitor Smartmatic over similar claims waged against that company’s
> machines, in a $2.7 billion lawsuit that also targets Giuliani, Fox
> News and several of its anchors.
