Nauta further said the indictment did not allege one cohesive conspiracy but instead tried to link together distinct conduct by different people. Nowhere in the indictment does it allege Nauta or De Oliveira knew about national defense information present in Mar-a-Lago...
The jurors themselves should object to this invasion of their privacy.
Maybe the feds should read recent polls and realize that a plurality of the population think that the election WAS stolen.
Jury tempering is OK for some.
It wasn’t stolen. It was an outright robbery.
Florida federal prosecutors want to ask potential jurors in Donald Trump’s classified documents case if they believe the 2020 election was “stolen” and if they hold opinions about how the FBI executed a highly publicized search warrant at his Mar-a-Lago resort
So they want to ferret out anybody who isn’t getting news and information from sources NOT under the control of the CIA, FBI, and the Biden Administration. That’s act alone precludes a fair trial, IMHO, and those questions should NOT be allowed. However, in the Circus we now call the ‘Justice’ system of America.....you can bet they will do it anyway.
My take: the Feds know they won't have a stacked courtroom like they would in DC.
I'd love to see a prospective juror asked:
"How does it make you feel that the prosecution really would like a biased judge and jury like they can get in DC?"
I know that would never be allowed, but the responses would be interesting.
Why don’t they just ask to bring a jury from New York or DC?
A jury of the prosecutions peers. Pretty sure that is not what the constitution calls for.
It is almost as if the prosecution wants to only sit vegan jurors with pink/purple hair, multiple face and body piercings, who can quote ‘Mao’s Little Red Book’ but not the Constitution, and identify as misandrist. Guess they never heard of ‘jury of your peers.’
The best question to ask jurors is “Do you believe Joe Biden is a great President?” I would want a video of the jury pool when I ask the question. Everyone who laughs their rear off I want on the jury! I would even settle for a good snicker out of a person - they could serve as the foreman just so they don’t acquit within the first five minutes.
Do you have feelings about murder as a crime? WTF? Just ask someone if they are MAGA, RINO, or leftist?
Actually, the judge should dismiss the case, with prejudice, based upon this request. That alone reveals that this is a political persecution, not an actual case with evidence before an impartial jury of one’s peers.
Are you a republican or democrat?
If asked as a potential juror I would say, as I have from the beginning, that it remains an open question since there was never an official, all encompassing investigation.
Is there anyway to read the whole article? It’s hidden behind a paywall!
This shows the absurdity of the attempt to prosecute the President.
There is NO jury in this country that won’t have partisan opinions of Trump, and that’s who’s really on trial.
The prosecution will argue essentially that there can be no Trump supporters...meaning that they will tolerate only Trump’s opposition.
A politically biased jury is nothing but a kangaroo court, a political show trial.
Lie.
They want to stack the deck....
WHy don’t they just go direct - Who did you vote for in 2020?
