BREAKING: As expected, Judge Cannon will delay the trial schedule in Jack Smith's classified documents case against Trump. Details to follow

I'll have a column explaining it all after order is filed.

You will see much caterwauling by corporate media types and usual suspects like Weissmann and McQuade how Cannon is doing Trump's bidding.

But the blame lies SOLELY at the feet of DOJ. Jack Smith brought 2 unprecedented federal cases against a former president within two months of each other. He asked for, and was granted, an expedited trial schedule in D.C. Judge Chutkan gave Trump 7 months to prepare for trial--the typical J6 case goes to trial over a year after indictment.

The classified docs trial represents major obstacles to defense (Trump and 2 co-defendants) as they attempt to view classified discovery in a Miami SCIF the government just set up on October 18. All attorneys had to obtain security clearances.

Discovery is voluminous--1.3 million pages of unclassified, 5,500 pages of classified, and years' worth of security footage from Trump's properties.

Further, Smith brought a superseding indictment in classified docs case several weeks after June indictment was handed down, adding another defendant and more charges against Trump.

Smith is playing games--Chutkan lets him, Cannon doesn't. Which is why she has earned the enmity of corporate media and their "expert" lapdogs.

>> No. The “final nail” would be allowing the Marxist left to get away with it. <<

How do you possibly see having Trump nominated, convicted, imprisoned and defeated as having any other outcome???

Right. Because insurrectionists dedicated to the cause of holding other innocent humans in eternal bondage was the hope of mankind *eyeroll.* Oh, right: States’ Rights, as if the Fugitive Slave Act was a just and noble exception. The confederate tards should all kiss Lincoln’s ass, because justice would have been to have strung every last damned one up by his neck.

Point is... if we allow the Marxist left to get away with that, there is, quite literally, nothing they ‘won’t’ do to us. Thus, letting them do as they please is that final nail in our coffin.

And you think the Marxist Left would be happy with a Pres. DeSantis?

The Judge should have thrown out the case. Trump grand jury was in DC not Florida where supposed crimes were committed. You per law have a grand jury of your peers in the state crimes were committed.

She questioned the whole thing regarding grand jury but is letting it proceed in DC where we all know they hate him regardless of any evidence proving innocence.

I’ve not been around for several years.

Why would anyone here be upset to read this?

Thanks ahead of time and nice to meet you.

Well, we actually do have another solid choice in the primaries.


I think you’re a little short on that one.

That may be true, but Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure FRCrP 42 relates to Criminal Contempt:
Rule 42. Criminal Contempt

Whereas Federal Rules of Civil Procedure FRCP 42 relates to consolidation of trials:
Rule 42. Consolidation; Separate Trials

Lincoln said the war was not about slavery. So who should I believe?

>> Lincoln said the war was not about slavery. So who should I believe? <<

He said the North did not fight it to end slavery. He did want to end slavery, but he wanted for it to “die on the vine”; he fought the war to preserve the Union.

On the other hand, the South absolutely did fight it to retain slavery, while saving their own necks, for they were terrified that black men, once liberated, would give them the fate that they justly deserved.

If the south wanted to preserve slavery all they had to do was stop fighting. They didn’t . It was about forming a new republic. Secession is the ultimate states right.
