Obama 'Birther' Conspiracy Theorist Orly Taitz Sues To Stop Second Impeachment Trial
A dentist and lawyer known for her past promotion of the "birther" conspiracy theory regarding former President Barack Obama has sued Vice President Kamala Harris and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) to halt former President Donald Trump's impeachment.
Orly Taitz is suing to prevent the Senate from holding a second Trump impeachment trial more than a decade after she first made headlines for launching legal complaints in support of misinformation claiming that Obama was not born in the U.S., a bogus claim that Trump promoted for several years before becoming president.
The new lawsuit was filed Thursday on behalf of the Defend Our Freedoms Foundation, a group that Taitz founded. It claims that going through with the impeachment trial would be illegal since the Constitution states that the impeachment process can be used to remove a sitting president, while Trump already left office when President Joe Biden was inaugurated on Wednesday.
Taitz and the group go on to complain that the former president being convicted would deprive them of their Constitutional rights because they would no longer be able to vote for Trump in a hypothetical bid for a non-consecutive second term if the Senate were to bar him from ever again seeking public office, which the chamber would have the option of doing upon his conviction.
