Aileen Cannon was bought and paid for.
Release the files
Just remember: Merrick Garland held everything up.
So many people quickly jumping in to say that Jack didn’t do anything.
The dude prosecuted war criminals. He knew the balance of diligence and haste he needed to strike, and had a case and evidence ready in plenty of time.
It was the obstruction of a corrupt judge that killed his case, not him slowwalking things.
For those blaming Jack Smith, let’s not forget the unprecedented corrupt Supreme Court intervention that led to Trump evading justice. They pretty ruled he was above the law and Cannon corruptly ruled special counsels have no authority.
Sad truth is, much as I’d like to blame Garland or Cannon or whoever, it was American voters who let Trump off the hook – in full knowledge of his corruption and guilt. That’s the stark reality.
Too bad we never got to see it. Forget the Epstein files. Let’s release the Smith files.
Ultimately he did everything needed to nail Trump, but the media and a plurality of Americans decided they simply didn’t care and that not only did they want Trump to get away with his crimes, they wanted to hand him the power to commit more crimes with impunity.
That so many people wanted that is one of the most insane things that’s happened in my lifetime, but that’s not Jack Smith’s fault.
To those blaming Jack by saying he didn’t do shit: Kindly shut the fuck up and sit the fuck down.
Aileen Cannon constantly dragged out his case against Trump, acting as a sort of legal bodyguard. The Supreme Court, which was packed by Trump in his first term, also did not help by ruling presidents could not be prosecuted while in office and could not be prosecuted for actions taken while in office, giving the vaguest of terms: „official actions,“ which essentially means they can just turn a blind eye to everything Trump has done or will do so long as they get a cut of the profits and/or are not affected personally.
Jack had an airtight case against Trump and would have put him away ‚til the end of his days if it wasn’t for corrupt Supreme Court „justices“ and federal officials.
They were into discovery motions on these cases, and much of the evidence and witness testominy was described in court filings, which were public record and printed by very few media orgs. I read them as I avidly followed those cases. I had the impression Jack Smith was going to win his cases (despite judicial pre-trial obstructions). But these filings didn’t get much air time, drowned out by Trump projection, and when he took over DOJ, it all magically disappeard from the American conscience.
But not mine. I’ll never forget all I read about it. Trump belongs in prison, else there is NO JUSTICE in USA.
SELECTIVE JUSTICE IS *NO* JUSTICE!
Of course he did. The morons who run around attacking Biden are clueless.
Jack Smith had a __slam dunk case.__ It was exactly the win we hoped for. Trump would’ve been in a federal pen for the rest of his life.
He was __directly__ blocked by the Supreme Court.
I mean from my couch at home I’ve got plenty of evidence Trump has broken the law as well.
Plenty of clips of him in his own words committing crimes.
Unfortunately when you’re up against a judge(and a SCOTUS) who has a vested interest in protecting the defendant that evidence apparently isn’t worth dick.
Aileen Cannon’s corrupt and evil ass killed that case every single way possible.
Let’s not forget how atrocious of a judge he had to deal with.
How the fuck was Aileen Cannon not removed as the presiding judge for blatant conflict of interest?!
This was a miscarriage of justice and it was glaringly obvious she was obstructing this case as much as humanly possible.
Florida is truly where justice goes to die.
Leak it. Ffs. The other side would have zero qualms and I’m waiting for Smith’s indictment which I’m sure is coming.
Jack had him dead to rights and we all know it. The clown in Miami that dares to call herself a judge is the primary reason this was never brought to court.
Don’t forget, a republican investigated djt under the auspices of his own administration and still found extensive criminal activity:
– The investigation produced 37 indictments; seven guilty pleas or convictions; and compelling evidence that the president obstructed justice on multiple occasions. Mueller also uncovered and referred 14 criminal matters to other components of the Department of Justice.
– Trump associates repeatedly lied to investigators about their contacts with Russians, and President Trump refused to answer questions about his efforts to impede federal proceedings and influence the testimony of witnesses.
– A statement signed by over 1,000 former federal prosecutors concluded that if any other American engaged in the same efforts to impede federal proceedings the way Trump did, they would likely be indicted for multiple charges of obstruction of justice.
Clickbait headline implying that Smith claimed he had lots of evidence against Trump in general, which is probably true but is not what Smith said. The actual quote (given in the article) was that there was „tons of evidence *of willfulness*“ that Trump was being obstructive by claiming ownership of classified documents.
The entire interview is available at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DR79GW6SvxE and is worth a listen. Around 52:00, Weissman asks Smith about differences in the way Trump’s classified docs situation was handled vis a vis the way a similar issue was handled for Pence and Biden, and that answer leads to the „tons of evidence of willfulness“ quote.
ETA: Anyone who’s hoping Smith has flashed some receipts in this interview will be disappointed. He was very circumspect even though Weissman nudged him out toward thin ice a time or two, asking questions that might have led to revelations from someone less dedicated to the notion that you make your case in court instead of in public.
It was obvious to anyone who was paying attention. An entire political party was dedicated to keeping Trump out of prison though because he’s very much a useful idiot to them.
There is no fucking justice in this clown fucking country.
Fuck Aileen Cannon, fuck the SCOTUS, and fuck Merrick Garland.
If it were me, I’d be willing to ruin my career to release this treasure trove of evidence through a reputable media outlet against the most dangerous autocrat the world has ever seen.
Leak it.
[Here’s a link to the video](https://youtu.be/DR79GW6SvxE?si=lGYByCH-6fjNPUCg). Reading Mr. Smith’s resume is jaw-dropping… from bringing cases against war criminals in The Hague to working as a federal prosecutor in the southern district of New York, considered one of the top jobs in the US Department of Justice, and so much more in between. If you combined every single one of those ambulance chasers working for Trump in the Bondi department, they still couldn’t hold a candle to what Smith has accomplished serving his country.
So fucking leak it anything else is salt in the wound for no fucking reason lol.
I don’t care what was stopped leading to nothing.
Fucking leak the shit.
Watch him sell a book lol.
Jack Smith was the man. He didn’t “do nothing”. The system stomped and curbed him every time, and it wasn’t just Aileen Canon.
It would be great if Jack Smith was the next on Trump‘s revenge tour, ends up in court and produces all the evidence against Trump to prove that it wasn’t a witch hunt therefore exposing Trump in the process.
It should be obvious to anyone who followed the case.
The government had been asking for over a year for the material. They eventually got a court order to have the material returned. Trump kept a bunch and had his lawyers swear on court documents they had returned it all. A few weeks later the DOJ carried out the search warrant and found piles of unreturned material.
Meanwhile, Trump was accused of playing musical chairs with the boxes of materials and allegedly destroying video surveillance of it.
Biden/Pence on the other hand immediately complied and allowed the government to verify they had nothing else.
