  3. He had helped develop the #Trump team’s legal arguments behind the successful effort to get the Mar-a-Lago #ClassifiedDocuments indictment thrown out, as well as the arguments behind the presidential #immunity case that prevailed at #SCOTUS. He had embraced the most contentious elements of Trump’s agenda, but was quickly coming up against the limit of what the #Constitution, in his reading, could be made to bear.

    On-going legacy of a Federal Judge’s dismissal of and hiding facts about a federal indictment 🤮:

    Judiciary Committee testimony
    “The #ClassifiedDocuments case was hampered by rulings from Florida judge #AileenCannon who at one point dismissed Smith’s indictment.

    “[Jack] Smith authored a report into his prosecutions, and the portion covering the election interference case was released prior to Biden leaving office. However, Cannon has barred the chapter discussing the classified-documents charges from being made public, though Democrats on the judiciary committee have asked her to reverse her decision.

    “At the outset of the hearing, an attorney for Smith, Peter Koski, told the committee the former special counsel had received an email from the #Justice Department advising him to #avoid talking about his evidence in the case because of Cannon’s ruling.”

  14. The commissioner, Thomas G. Donlon, a fmr #FBI ofcl, was appointed in the fall of 2024 to stabilize a shaky #NYPD that had been micromanaged by Mayor #EricAdams, a fmr captain on the force. Donlon stepped down weeks into the job after federal agents searched his home for #ClassifiedDocuments in an unrelated investigation.

  16. ⬆️ @GreenFire

    I paid attention, and complained about #Biden's #virtueSignaling in choosing #Garland ever since. You obviously didn't read reports of how Biden knee-capped Garland, despite link above 🙄

    #US made a mistake letting #Nixon go. Biden repeated by saying he preferred #unity over #investigation.

    Don't even get me started on how they did a #prettyPlease in the #classifiedDocuments case, and once they had an airtight case, went to #Florida instead of #DC, where the crime was committed

    >> I still worry about all the stolen top-secret documents. I would like to know what #JackSmith says in that report about what he intended to do with them.

    If he intended to do anything, he would've brought the case in DC where crime was committed, and he would have sped up the process #prettyPlease.

    Nobody was waiting 18 mo for phone warrants in the #ClassifiedDocuments case as @emptywheel likes to apologize for #MerrickGarland in the #Jan6 case.
