Smith's patience has expired.

You just proved that the Banana Republic of DC indicted Trump AFTER the FBI said he did nothing wrong by NOT indicting him.

'The FBI said he did nothing wrong by NOT indicting him'?
I don't think it works that way.

I'd argue that the evidence known at that time was more ruling to 'no charges'....... than "done nothing wrong'.
And notably, that was then. This is now. Witnesses have come forward. For example, watch the J6 Hearings.

However, the 'insurrection', or 'incitement' concerns can be passed over when one considers the fraudulent elector scheme. That Trump was apprised was illegal....by it's very architect, John Eastman.

So, how many of the indictments are needed to get a conviction? I think one would be sufficient. The DOJ threw a wide net of indictments at the alleged perpetrators. It only takes one to stick. IMHO

The FBI still didn't get the guy on video planting pipe bombs. Wonder why?

I don't know. Why?

"We'll see how many of the remaining 88 counts get convictions. Current score of the 91 counts is Trump-3 Opponents-0."

As already mentioned: "So, how many of the indictments are needed to get a conviction? I think one would be sufficient. The DOJ threw a wide net of indictments at the alleged perpetrators. It only takes one to stick. IMHO

He wasn't. But he is demanding that Cannon follow the law. Something she has been reprimanded twice for not doing. The fact that she ruled in Smith's favor immediately after his filing tells us all we need to know about her intent. She's on board with Trump's delay tactics.

I just love the smell of newly minted mind-reading powers in the morning.

The FBI doesn’t indict people. A grand jury does with prosecutors after a thorough investigation is completed.

When was he put in control of the proceedings?

The moment feelings determined so

Nobody implied that.

Overturned her twice already.

He actually presented evidence. You ignored that to have your outburst.

As I said, Smith's filing makes their argument for them. Other than Trump's attorneys is there any legal expert defending the idea of presidential immunity as he wants it applied? Even on Faux?

Of course not. Its a simple "legal" delay tactic because the dems waited for election season to prosecute Trump instead of filing charges as soon as possible. This is a "chess match" between Biden's minions and Trump.

Benedict Donald is not being indicted for the violence or the riot he inspired on Jan 6th. For example:
"the Defendant,DONALD J. TRUMP, did knowingly combine, conspire, confederate, and agree with co-conspirators, known and unknown to the Grand Jury, to defraud the United States by using dishonesty, fraud, and deceit to impair, obstruct, and defeat the lawful federal government function by which the results of the presidential election are collected, counted, and certified by the federal government"
No mention of the Jan 6th violence his months of spreading lies inspired.

...so a democrat Grand Jury agreed with a democrat prosecutor in the Banana Republic of 99% democrat DC. Shocking.

Partisan tripe. The courts should dismiss all charges against Trump and let the VOTERS decide in November, that is "democracy".

 

[Chillicothe]

I demur.

Rather, through many multiples of filings for a whole gamut of procedural issues Don Trump was able to keep delaying and delaying his day of accountability.

If these trials come late then it is on Don Trump. He delayed 'em, which is a widely acknowledge tactic of his throughout his business career.

Don Trump's most damaging adversary is...........Don Trump.

Cannon is clearly a corrupt, partisan, and incompetent jurist – this fact is well documented.

 

[HikerGuy83]

Is anyone making a statue of Cannon ? If not, they should. She's going to be a hero.

They should make one of Smith too. And put it where the pigeons can s**t on it all day long.

 

[hadit]

True.

Cannon is clearly a corrupt, partisan, and incompetent jurist – this fact is well documented.

Said the echo chamber in the fever swamp.

 

[BackAgain]

True.

Cannon is clearly a corrupt, partisan, and incompetent jurist – this fact is well documented.

Adam_Clayton is a joke.

Cannon is, so far, the only real judge presiding over any Trump case.

Special Counsel Jack Smith Is Done With Judge Aileen Cannon And Lets It Show

In a new filing that bluntly confronts U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon, Special Counsel Jack Smith takes a new tone of incredulousness and disdain for her mishandling of the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case.

The issue at hand is her failure to have yet ruled on Donald Trump’s motion to dismiss based on his inane, unprecedented, and counterfactual reading of the Presidential Records Act. Instead of rejecting the argument out of hand, Cannon not only is entertaining it but ordered the two sides to propose jury instructions based on two different deeply flawed interpretations of the PRA.

That set up an nearly impossible challenge for Smith: How do you draft jury instructions that are so wrong on the law without looking like an idiot, undermining your own case, and pissing of the judge?

The answer: You can’t.

So Smith went all in, no longer trying to placate, educate, or hand-hold Cannon.

Smith ripped her interpretations of the PRA: “both of the Court’s scenarios are fundamentally flawed and any jury instructions that reflect those scenarios would be error.” He said her “legal premise is wrong” and her requested jury instructions “would distort the trial.”
Special Counsel Jack Smith Loses Patience With Judge Aileen Cannon

Not a great idea to antagonize a Trump toady but some things need to be done. She's made it clear she is unqualified to be on this case from the standpoint of experience, an understanding of the law, and a lack of impartiality. Good for Smith that he has called her out.

Looks like the judge is teaching Smith the virtues of patience, as this case is on hold indefinitely. A rare teaching moment for Democrats, wonder if they'll comprehend the lesson?
