All_Pro_Bills Posted August 8, 2023 Posted August 8, 2023 (edited) Given the 1st Amendment protecting free speech is under assault, if you say something you know is not true then you could face criminal prosecution for mind-crimes by special council Jack Smith.

B-Man Posted August 8, 2023 Posted August 8, 2023 Trump was not charged with sedition or even seditious conspiracy. Nor was he charged with conspiracy to incitement or insurrection, the grounds for his second impeachment. However, if Biden does view this case as personal, as CNN suggests, he might be right for the wrong reason. That’s because the case being constructed against Trump by Justice Department special counsel Jack Smith could prove a serious problem for Biden, too — particularly as the basis for a House impeachment inquiry. The latest Trump indictment, based on little new evidence and even less established law, faces a major threshold challenge under the First Amendment. Smith is seeking to criminalize what constitutes disinformation, which not only runs against the grain of the First Amendment but also prior cases. That includes United States v. Alvarez, which overturned the conviction of a politician for knowingly lying about his military background. There is a wicked twist in all of this for Biden. The very controversial linchpin used against Trump could conceivably be used against Biden, particularly in the launching of an impeachment inquiry by House Republicans.

B-Man Posted August 10, 2023 Posted August 10, 2023 MATT MARGOLIS: The Latest Trump Indictment Looks Like It’s Backfiring. A new poll conducted Aug. 2-7, which is entirely after the latest indictment by Special Counsel Jack Smith, shows that Trump now leads Biden in a 2024 rematch. The survey by Premise found that Trump garners the support of 42% of registered voters, while Joe Biden gets 38%, giving Trump a 4-point advantage. If you’re a Democrat seeing this poll, it has to make you nervous. Trump was indicted earlier this month, and Democrats have been accusing him of crimes from the moment he decided to run for president. To them, the indictment not only represents Trump getting justice, but it’s the key to keeping him out of the White House. However, many experts panned the indictment for being weak and for criminalizing free speech. https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/matt-margolis/2023/08/09/the-latest-trump-indictment-looks-like-its-backfiring-n1717519 1

B-Man Posted August 13, 2023 Posted August 13, 2023 Your Sunday morning Clarice. The Weaponization of Justice American Thinker, by Clarice Feldman FTA: To avoid any confusion, let me begin by explaining the difference between a Special Counsel and an Independent Counsel. It’s a significant and historical one. Essentially, special counsels offer a cover for Attorneys General by allowing a not really independent person to act as a buffer -- a front if you will -- to shield them from politically sticky stuff. At the end of their work, such counsels are to prepare a written report to the Attorney General who in his discretion decides whether or not to make the report public. In this case, the appointment of David Weiss as special counsel was met with disbelief. Professor Jonathan Turley details why this was such an outrageous move by Attorney General Garland: https://thehill.com/opinion/criminal-justice/4149641-shoeless-joe-weiss-and-the-fixing-of-the-hunter-biden-game/ Did Garland think this appointment would foreclose any further work by the House Oversight Committee into President Biden’s corruption? The editors of the Wall Street Journal opine that now both Messrs. Weiss and Garland will claim they cannot cooperate with the committee because of an “ongoing investigation” https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2023/08/the_weaponization_of_justice.html https://www.wsj.com/articles/a-not-so-special-counsel-for-hunter-biden-4a1aa0ec?mod=MorningEditorialReport&mod=djemMER_h 2
B-Man Posted August 13, 2023 Posted August 13, 2023 ‘Shoeless Joe’ Weiss and the fixing of the Hunter Biden game BY JONATHAN TURLEY FTA: The appointment of Delaware David Weiss as the new special counsel to investigate Hunter Biden left many with the same disbelief as that kid in Chicago. This is, after all, the same Weiss who headed an investigation that was trashed by whistleblowers, who alleged that his investigation had been fixed from the outset. It is the same Weiss who ran an investigation in which agents were allegedly prevented from asking about Joe Biden, obstructed in their efforts to pursue questions and compromised by tip offs to the Biden team on planned searches. It was also the same Weiss who reportedly allowed the statute of limitations to run out on Hunter’s major tax offenses, even though he had the option to extend it. It was the same Weiss who did not indict on major tax felonies and cut a plea deal that brushed aside a felony gun charge. It was the same Weiss who inked a widely panned “sweetheart” deal that caused a federal judge to balk and trash a sweeping immunity grant — language that even the prosecutor admitted he had never previously seen in a plea deal. That is why many asked Garland to “say it ain’t so.” The Weiss appointment definitively established Garland as a failure as attorney general. As someone who initially praised Garland’s appointment, I now see that he has repeatedly shown he lacks the strength and leadership to rise to these moments. https://thehill.com/opinion/criminal-justice/4149641-shoeless-joe-weiss-and-the-fixing-of-the-hunter-biden-game/ . 1
