Jack Smith Seeks Court's Permission to File 180-PAGE MOTION Detailing Trump's January 6 Crimes - Glenn Kirschner



Over the weekend, Special Counsel Jack Smith field a request with Judge Tanya Chutkan, in Trump's federal election subversion prosecution in DC, to file an "oversized motion" that is estimated to be 180 pages in length. Smith informed the judge that it will take 180 pages to relate all of the evidence of Trump's January 6 crimes for the judge to have sufficient evidence to begin litigating the question that the Supreme Court has directed her to decide: which of Trump crimes were official presidential acts such that he should be immune from prosecution, and which of his crimes did not involve official presidential acts such that he can be prosecuted.

Although this filing by Smith is due on September 26, something Smith included in his weekend filing suggest that the motion might not become available to the public immediately upon being filed, due to possible litigation over proposed redactions, as this video discusses. - Glenn Kirschner - 09/23/2024.

How can anyone who cares about the future of the country ignore his continuing crimes and attacks and support giving him a chance to repeat them - and the even worse threats he makes against the American people??
