DOJ/Jack Smith Investigation into Trump and Election Interference, January 6th Insurrection (Re-Indicted August 27, 2024)

WASHINGTON, (Reuters) -Lawyers for former U.S. President Donald Trump arrived at the office of Special Counsel Jack Smith on Thursday, ABC News reported, the …

I wonder what this is about? Routine meeting, or something more exciting, like being handed a big fat indictment?

I so hope today is the day!

We should know in a few hours - donald won’t be able to help himself from fake tweeting about it.

cnn is reporting that the jury went to an early lunch and the trump team is trying to delay.

my betting is that jack smith is just staring them down.

There’s a shocker.

“Oh boy, is this great!”

the meeting has ended! now we wait again…fingers drumming.

Without going too far afield … my money’s on Big Jack Smith just doom-scrolling through every single “Truth” and Tweet that Trump made with disparaging remarks about Jack Smith.

Maybe reading a few of the juicier ones aloud.

Followed by a penetrating stare.

At which point, the lawyers all start confessing every little sin they’ve ever committed…

There’s not enough time for that, I’m afraid.

Trump’s lawyers

From CNN:

In a post on the social platform Truth Social, Trump said his team explained "in detail that I did nothing wrong, was advised by many lawyers, and that an Indictment of me would only further destroy our Country.

Further destroy? I don’t even know what he’s talking about there. (not surprisingly)

It’s just that Generalized Existential Threat Represented by Biden and the Democrats.

Just that. Nothing to see here. Move along.

[Imagine if Obama had trashed the USA the way this guy does]

Imagine if Obama had three wives, two divorces, children with different mothers due to divorces, paid off a porn star to remain silent about screwing her while married, lost a civil suit about raping a woman, pouted like a little toddler about losing an election, lost an election, screwed up the mid-terms (losing the senate majority in the process), stole government documents with nuclear secrets, refused to give them back, had to have a warrant and search to give them up, was determined to run again after losing merely to prevent the DOJ from locking him up for obvious crimes.

I think the VERY FIRST ONE of these would have been a screaming talking point on the Right Wing Media forever.

I hope the indictment comes down today, but it could still be next week. We’ll find out when the next all caps deranged post on Lies Social comes out.

Totally irrelevant observation but I’m just curious- does anyone else think Jack Smith is a doppleganger for General Zod of the first Superman movie?

General Zod wouldn’t dare cross Smith.

We don’t have to – it’s true.

(Pretty sure you meant Obama.)

OOPS. Yes. I fixed that, thanks.

I’ve heard the expression that every problem looks like a nail when the only tool you have is a hammer. But, goddamn, I wish they’d try something else because going for delays is getting boring.
