Trump indictment 4.0

lizacreates Yes, the "talking legal heads" on the news networks said he can't have it both ways, because if he was working as a Federal Employee while doing those things in GA, he was then violating the Hatch Act. Must have been some interesting discussions with his counsel.

I just got home and now catching up with what’s being reported.

It seems he’s saying that it was hard to tell what was political and what wasn’t because they were extremely busy days. What? I could be wrong, but this was my interpretation (this is why I hate that federal courts bar cameras; it helps a lot if one can watch the actual proceedings).

How can he not tell? When he was sent to Georgia to observe an election audit, he couldn’t tell that was political? When he was on the phone with Trump, Raffensperger, etc, and on another occasion offering financial assistance from the Trump campaign so GA could hurry up verifying of votes…he couldn’t tell those were political? He’s not that stupid. He knows full well those were not part of his chief of staff (official) duties because the president has no role in the administration of an election!

Oh, Gaetz and his whiny ass. There’s no problem with a March 4 DC trial. The GA case won’t proceed to trial on March 4 because that’s just highly unlikely. It hasn’t been scheduled yet; it was merely a proposed date. Alvin Bragg’s trial for March 25 can be postponed as Bragg already said he will yield to the federal cases, so even if DC takes six to eight weeks, there’s no overlap. Gaetz is such a drama queen. It’s not the court’s fault that his party’s leader is a career criminal. He just wants new material to bitch about the next time he’s on Newsmax.

Federal Case date: March 4, 2024

You and I are fine, but thanks for the apology.

Another GOP member of Georgia leadership is going against TFG.

Republican officials in Georgia have been threatening to punish or remove Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis over the election racketeering charges she brought against former President Donald Trump and 18 of his allies, including lawyers and local Republican operatives. But according to Atlanta Journal-Constitution reporter Greg Bluestein, state House Speaker Jon Burns has thrown cold water on the idea of impeaching her or defunding her office.

"As Hurricane Idalia bears down on our great state today ... we continue to have a few members of the General Assembly making misleading or false claims about the General Assembly's lawful powers regarding an ongoing criminal case before our Judiciary," said Burns in a statement. "A select few are calling to defund a duly-elected district attorney of this state and her office in an attempt to interfere with the criminal justice system. Regardless of your views of this case, removing this funding would also have the unintended consequence of causing a delay or complete lack of prosecution of other serious offenses like murder, rape, armed robbery, gang prosecution, battery etc."

Furthermore, Burns added, "Targeting one specific DA in this manner certainly flaunts the idea of separation of powers, if not outright violates it."

This comes as even Republicans who support ousting or investigating Willis are divided and arguing with each other over how to do it.

State Senate Majority Leader Steve Gooch has called for an investigation into Willis, but is pushing back on far-right lawmaker Colton Moore's demand to call a special session to impeach her, saying the votes aren't there for it. Moore has fired back, calling Republicans critical of his plan "buzzard cowards."

"First, it was Raffensperger, Kemp, Geoff Duncan, and the late David Ralston," Rubin wrote Wednesday. "Now add Jon Burns to the list of otherwise very conservative GA GOP leaders who don’t mind antagonizing Trump."

More news on Sidney Powell who is now requesting severance from all the others..
Katie Phang her motion is absurd and we all should read it.

Phang described the motion as “absurd.”

Her motion is so worth the read bc it’s so absurd: she claims she’s only being charged with RICO because she attended a press conference exercising her First Amendment right to speak on a matter of great public interest…," Phang said in a social media post.

Phang added that Powell “is very keen to disassociate herself from the other defendants and claims ‘she had no contact with most of her purported conspirators, and rarely agreed with those she knew or spoke with.’"

“She is asking the Court to grant her an evidentiary hearing on her motion, and to allow for her to be tried separately from the co-defendants in this case.”

Powell in court filings asserts that “Contrary to widely publicized false statements in the media, Sidney Powell did not represent President Trump or the Trump campaign. She had no engagement agreement with either. She appears on no pleadings for Trump or the Campaign. She appeared in no courtrooms or hearings for Trump or the Campaign. She had no contact with most of her purported conspirators and rarely agreed with those she knew or spoke with."

The filing continues:

“It cannot be disputed that Ms. Powell went her own way following the election, and she never reached an agreement on a course of action with any indicted or unindicted coconspirator—and certainly not any 3 illegal course of action. She was not part of any group ‘associated in fact,’ or an “ongoing organization” that functioned as a ‘continuing unit’ for any purpose. Ind. Count I, ‘The Enterprise.’”

Guess she was hanging out in the WH for the great coffee!!

I wonder about several of the others and where they got their law degrees, or at least if they slept through the ethics classes.
However we have judges who lack basic ethics too!

Funny, Eastman clerked for Thomas. Who corrupted who? Or did they share that learning experience?

I have heard and read that TFG is requesting to sever his case from those who have requested a speedy trial, says he cannot be ready so quickly... Although I am sure he would them ALL done before he faces the jury..

Sidney Powell has joined Chesebro to be provided the names of the listed unindicted co-conspirators and for their lawyers to be allowed to interview the grand jury members..

Interesting. Meadows body language...

Body language expert Dr. Jack Brown noted that Meadows' attorney "effectively says his client needs pronoun training."

"Earlier this week, Mark Meadows attorney's [sic] stated multiple times that Meadows over-uses the word 'we,'" he said. He added that the measure was taken "to nullify obvious evidence of Meadows' participation in attempts to overthrow the Georgia election."

Brown goes on to say that, by drawing attention to this issue in Meadows' testimony, his legal team is actually reinforcing the idea that he will ultimately be found guilty.

"In his efforts to try to distance his client from the rest of the Trump gang, his tactic had the opposite effect," Brown wrote. "Meadows' use of the word 'we' is screaming his guilt."

Conservative attorney and anti-Trump activist George Conway took notice of the "pronoun training" comment, and wrote the following:

"Hello, it’s so nice to meet you. Our name is A. Rico Conspiracy and our pronouns are we/us/our.”
