Trump Indictment ( includes NY AG and Fed documents case ) (1 Viewer)

[SteveSBrickNJ]

Former President D. Trump has been indicted by a New York Grand Jury. There will be much to talk about on this topic because this is just the first step in a lengthy process.
Possibly it is worthy of its own thread here rather than posting about Trump's indictment in already existing threads?

Manhattan’s DA wanted a Friday Trump arrest. Trump’s team said no.

Secret Service needed more time to prepare, according to the ex-president’s legal team.

And do your work for you? Fork that.

No kidding. SFL - you’re the one making the crazy conspiracy claim. Prove it.

Jack Smith admits that his prosecution team misled the court about evidence tampering.

Special counsel Jack Smith’s team acknowledged Friday that some evidence in the prosecution of former President Donald Trump for hoarding classified documents at his Florida home may not be in the same sequence FBI agents found it when they swept into the Mar-a-Lago compound with a search warrant in August 2022.

The concession from prosecutors in a court filing Friday afternoon came after attorneys for one of Trump’s co-defendants asked for a delay in the case because the defense lawyers were having trouble determining precisely where particular documents had come from in the 33 boxes the FBI seized almost two years ago.

In their filing, prosecutors acknowledged the government had previously — and incorrectly — told U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon that the boxes remained “in their original, intact form as seized,” other than a decision to replace classified documents with placeholder sheets.

That depiction, the prosecutors conceded, is “inconsistent” with their current understanding that some of the documents are not now in the same order as they appear in digital scans of the records that were made in the fall of 2022 after Cannon ordered an unusual process to review whether the FBI may have seized legally privileged records.

“There are some boxes where the order of items within that box is not the same as in the associated scans,” prosecutors wrote, adding in a footnote: “The Government acknowledges that this is inconsistent with what Government counsel previously understood and represented to the Court.”

"Some of the papers in the box got shuffled into a different order" isn't the gotcha you think it is.

The fact that classified papers were stuffed into boxes with personal effects and golf shirts and such, and stored in a bathroom doesn’t faze him, though, does it?

Can't let pesky facts get in the way of a good argument, lol.

Ugh.

Holder nails it! There's very little that can be done to hold a Fed Judge accountable for obviously corrupt actions when there are soooo many obviously corrupt officials there to back her up.

 

[coldseat]

She uses her very purposeful delay in resolving pre-trail motions as the reasoning to delaying the trial indefinitely. How very Trumpian and on brand for her.

As if there was ever any doubt she would be this compromised or that this trial would never go to trial before the election.

the worst part most of them are just dumb trump lawyer stall tactics. well thats what happens when congress elects someone that was told by the bar that they were expressly unqualified for it. but they those judges trying trump are the real bad ones.

 

[zztop]

Honestly she was suspect from the start. And none of this surprises me one bit

To be as obvious as she's being, either she's a complete devotee to Trump, someone has dirt on her, or both.

Saw this following info mentioned on threads within the last month. I cannot find that particular post on threads unfortunately. Nor can the association imply guilt. Just very suspicious.

@capitolhunters: Now that Trump has flashed a NY Mafia pal (murderer Sammy Gravano of the Gambino family) to threaten Judge Engoron, is it finally time to mention that Trump's NY mob ties also touch his "friendly"...…

Federal rules don't force a judge to recuse when a defendant is a former business partner of their spouse's ex-Mafia employer. But it looks unseemly. And when Cannon keeps granting Trump nonsensical delays on his case, we have to talk about it. 3/

Cannon's husband Josh Lorence seems to agree it looks unseemly, since he wiped his LinkedIn in 2022 when Cannon first got a high-profile Trump case. He was a senior exec at Rosatti's BurgerFi, a hamburger businesses oddly with branches in Saudi Arabia. 4/

Remember when Trump and his minions were clamoring for Judge Merchan to recuse himself because his adult daughter worked as a consultant for Democratic candidates? ?

I do.
