Summary
Special counsel Jack Smith is finalizing a two-volume report on his investigations into Donald Trump, covering Trump’s handling of classified documents and efforts to overturn the 2020 election.
At least one volume may be released as early as Friday, despite objections from Trump’s lawyers, who argue the release is politically motivated and unconstitutional.
Trump’s classified documents case was dismissed, and both cases were dropped after his presidential win.
The Justice Department has not confirmed whether both volumes will be released simultaneously.
So what? He won’t suffer any consequences and he’s immune to shaming.
I mean, its frustrating as heck how all this is going down.
But releasing something that can be preserved and saved in archives all over the world is better then all records and documents just disappearing.
It will be released. But it will be 200 pages long, with approximately ten total pages worth of sentences not redacted. The only parts not redacted will be things already part of the public record.
This is still Merrick Garland’s DoJ. It doesn’t seek to actively do evil; it’s not Trump’s DoJ. But it does put defense of the powerful above any kind of justice. For Garland, protecting the powerful comes first; justice comes second.
And still nothing will come of it. It’s like everyone forgot the gulf of Tonkin or the Panama papers ever happened. Because nothing actually came of it and it will never matter.
No, fuck that. The record should be made public and preserved for posterity.
Trumps pretty vengeful. He might suffer consequences.
Haha
Came here to say the exact same thing
What a fucking joke this country has become.
Someone called the US a third world country with nuclear carriers, and, yeah, pretty much. There’s so much wealth in this country, there’s honestly no reason anyone should be struggling to get by, no reason people should need 80 hours a week just to tread water. We’ve designed our society to achieve its goals in the most wasteful, tortured fashion possible in nearly every case and painted it as a good thing. If we were a car, we’d be a lifted F350 super cab (small bed) powered by Flintstone engines, laughing at all the people riding past us on bikes and saying “thank God we’re not so backwards as them”. I think the death of the Soviet Union was maybe the worst thing that could have ever happened to the US, and the cold war liquidation sale has almost finished.
The bright side is that now that we’ve laid bare that all those years of pretentious finger wagging about the constitution was just a bunch of horseshit (my boy Montesquieu knows what’s up), there’s really nothing stopping us from a leftist revolution with teeth instead of Nazis with teeth. I’m not a fan of auths, but if I’ve got to pick one (and it’s looking that way), I’ll take commies over Nazis 10/10 times.
It still blows my mind. Of all people Trump was the guy the right pledged their loyalty to.
LOL, of course it is. The emperor will remain naked.
Cool, Jack. Super helpful now.
There was a lot of corruption involved in that trial. Jack Smith was clearly not part of it.
He petitioned against every questionable move Cannon made. Cannon just held all the cards.
It’s a fucked up system that Cannon could hold all the cards. The Maggot era has shown how wildly corrupt and immune to oversight our judges are. I’m certain they’ve been doing monstrous things all along (several judges come to mind) but watching this all take place under the national spotlight has been eye opening.
Mueller report 2.0. Wake me up if anything actually happens.
The way it seems, this will never see the light of day unless it is leaked. Emperor Trump will use his favorite tactic and delay it somehow.
He’ll probably wait until a court says he can’t.
It’s already been blocked by unqualified judge and Trump loyalist (constitutional traitor) Aileen Cannon.
She’s something else
Waste of tax payer money. If there are no consequences, then who cares.
