'The public has been poisoned': Trump tries one more time to stop Jack Smith's Jan. 6 evidence from coming out ahead of

[MayReasonRule]

Source: Law & Crime

Lawyers for former President Donald Trump on Thursday asked the judge in his Jan. 6 prosecution to keep a stay in place for a month so that the defense and special counsel Jack Smith can file their “immunity appendices” at the same time — after the 2024 election has come and gone.

On Oct. 10, several days after Smith’s immunity brief went public, U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan ruled that the prosecution’s redacted appendix should also go public since Trump’s “‘concern with the political consequences of these proceedings’ is not a cognizable legal prejudice.” At the same time, the judge stayed her order and gave Trump’s team seven days to “evaluate litigation options.”

The defense argued that a stay extension would promote “public confidence in the integrity of these proceedings and a court’s duty to remain apolitical,” similar to an argument that was made in favor of pushing back sentencing in Trump’s hush-money case.

Obama administration and Jan. 6 Committee attorney Eric Columbus, for one, saw the filing as a “prelude” to Trump lawyers asking the U.S. Supreme Court to get involved — again.

1. Being apolotical would mean not taking the election into account with all of this

Waiting til after the election would definitely be injecting politics into the case.

2. A frivolous motion utterly devoid of legal merit.

Another manifestly frivolous Motion soon to be denied by Judge Chutkan. I hope that this time Judge Chutkan "sanctions" these asshole lawyers. When Federal Judge Middlebrooks in Florida sanctioned the Turd and Alina Habba $975,000 "jointly and severally" that stopped their filing of frivolous litigation matters.

3. 44 months and counting

enough time has elapses.

4. Once again

What is to be released we already know - its the interviews with every cabinet member and aid who told him a)there was no widespread fraud which would have changed the election and b)Trump lost.

This completely undermines his entire campaign and every (R) talking head that wants to ignore his continued bs about the last election and pretend that, at minimum, "there were questions/problems" as they try to phrase it now.

5. Utter And Complete Bullshit Manufactured In And Birthed From The Bowels Of Donald Trump

Former President Donald J. Trump is requesting the Court to continue the stay of its October 10, 2024, Order until November 14, 2024, to allow for the concurrent filing of the parties’ respective immunity appendices. ​


Trump objected to the public release of the Special Counsel’s filings, arguing that it would prejudice potential jurors, endanger potential witnesses, and irreparably harm him, especially given the proximity to the Presidential election.


On October 2, 2024, the Court overruled Trump’s objections and ordered the immediate public release of the Special Counsel’s redacted immunity brief, which led to significant media coverage and political use by the incumbent Vice President.


Trump argues that releasing both appendices simultaneously would provide a more balanced view to the public and potential jurors, reducing the risk of prejudice and harm. ​


Trump emphasizes that the public interest and the integrity of the ongoing election would be better served by a temporary stay, ensuring that the case does not unduly interfere with or appear to interfere with the election. ​

Trump is full of shit as always.
Except of course for what's in his trousers...

6. Poisoned but not by Jack S., but from tRUMP. Everything he touches or graces is contaminated and must then be

decontaminated, to wash the filth off of it.
