B-Man Posted May 20 Posted May 20 Judge Cannon Calls Jack Smith Out For His Dirty Tricks in Rare Sunday Order by Christina Laila Judge Aileen Cannon called out Special Counsel Jack Smith for his dirty tricks in Trump’s classified documents case in a rare Sunday filing. Jack Smith has repeatedly warned of a ‘significant, immediate’ threat to the government witnesses if their names were unredacted. The Special Counsel has been fighting to keep the names of government witnesses a secret. He also opposed the unsealing of discovery material because one document confirms the existence of another FBI investigation. In a five-page order, Judge Cannon, a Trump appointee, said that she is “disappointed” that Jack Smith has demanded redactions for “witness safety” when it benefits him, but ignored those concerns at other times. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/05/judge-cannon-calls-jack-smith-his-dirty-tricks/ . 1
BillsFanNC Posted May 21 Author Posted May 21 We learned today that the FBI authorized use of force in an already unprecedented raid at the private residence of a former POTUS. Don't let that distract you from other details that we also learned today... Attorney-client privilege is a core right and professional obligation in America's legal system. It's one of the things that make our entire system work. So it's a big deal that, as part of his grand jury proceedings, Jack Smith's prosecutors threatened one of Trump's former lawyers, suggesting that by refusing to waive attorney-client privilege — refusing to compromise his professional integrity — he was signaling that Trump was guilty of a crime. “Why hasn’t your client waived privilege? Is it because he’s GUILTY?” Jack Smith's team are out of control. They belong in prison.

I believe the Grand Jury is +/- a rubber stamp in many cases, a one-sided visitation of evidence designed to get to the next step where the fun begins. Based on what we know---the evidence team gathered documents outside the scope of the court order, including tax returns and attorney/client documents, then fought tooth and nail to keep an independent party from reviewing documentation and determine what should be returned, what was fair for the govt to keep, and of course staged photos for release to the press---is it fair to suggest "thuggery" in play here? It seems from the reaction of Attorney Parlatore that he was completely taken aback by the line of questioning the govt (wo)man was pursuing. "Are you---are we really doing this?" seems to imply he thought some lines were being crossed. I'm not suggesting the govt man's actions were "lawless", because it seems like there is tremendous latitude given the home team, but what say you? Do you think the plan was to leverage the tension/stress of the proceeding to get Parlatore to make a mistake and violate Trump's confidence, knowing full well that conversations were privileged? Do you think a mistake was made by Attorney Edelstein, that perhaps she lost track of the rules regarding attny/client privilege and inadvertently asked a bad question? Or, is this sort of business as usual, where anyone can ask pretty much anything at any time?

Complaining about the process involving deadly force…a threat to national security and all that is good and holy. 1 1

Oh, you mean so that the ACTUAL CLASSIFIED MATERIAL below the "added" cover sheet wouldn't be widely disseminated? The problem here wasn't what the FBI did by properly protecting still-classified material. The problem is what Trump did by not properly storing classified documents.

C'mon man, it was a manufactured stunt by the Feds to make Trump look guilty. For once here admit that there is a witch hunt going on. 1

You say the documents were classified because they had a coversheet proclaiming them to be so. We have no idea what was under the coversheet and if it was classified or not. You do know this was a set-up as well as I do. Hell, everyone in this room knows it was a set-up.

No, I say the documents were classified because the documents themselves bear classification markings. Trump never denied he had documents marked "Secret" or even "Top Secret" at Mar-a-Lago. He claimed that he had declassified them. So the whole "set up" defense in nonsense. 6 minutes ago, All_Pro_Bills said: What the FBI did was a publicity stunt. Fine, you can argue that. But that's quite different than saying they just made it up. 1

I wonder if the people who believe that the FBI was trying to set up Trump also believe that drug dealers neatly stack their drugs, guns, and money on tables at police precincts... 2
