| Judge Aileen Cannon Blocks Release of Jack Smith's Special Counsel Report |
| 2025-01-09 |
| [PJ] Trump-appointed District Judge Aileen Cannon blocked the release of Special Counsel Jack Smith's report on his investigations into Donald Trump and two of his employees. The two investigations included mishandling classified documents and interference in the 2020 election. The hold in releasing the report is to allow the 11th Circuit Court to review the emergency motion by Trump’s codefendants, Walt Nauta and Carlos De Oliveira, who were charged in the mishandling of classified documents case with obstruction-related crimes. Nauta and De Oliveira argued Monday that the release of the report would "irreversibly and irredeemably" prejudice them as defendants. Defense attorneys are also unhappy with the small number of redactions in the final report. The defense team also complained about the "limited-access" review of the draft over the weekend and that it "revealed a one-sided narrative arguing that the Defendants committed the crimes charged in this case." Judge Cannon ruled last summer that the appointment of Special Counsel Jack Smith was unconstitutional, making the prosecution of Donald Trump illegal. The ruling is being appealed and will likely end up before the Supreme Court. "Releasing Smith’s report is obviously not in the public interest — particularly in light of President Trump’s commanding victory in the election and the sensitive nature of the ongoing transition process," Trump attorneys Todd Blanche and John Lauro said in a letter to Garland.

| #2 Tomorrow @ 9:30am is the make-or-break day for the Globalist Elites & Democrat Party, that are still trying to run things. So, will Manhattan Judge Juan M. Merchan use, what many call a politically generated case and conviction, in order to keep an overwhelmingly elected President from taking office? Which might save a collection of political/$$$$ globalist elite's, D's / RINO's, and staff from having to answer to charges of treason, subversion and a wide collection of felony level crimes, and including murder(s)? Or will he suddenly open his eyes, and understand the Greatest America Jury has spoken, the American Voters? |
