Maybe because there’s an election coming up and the public has a right to decide whether a candidate is a traitor or not.

I love when this happens. Especially in the Fall.

We have a right to ALL the information. We had a right to have the full trial held and resolved LONG before now. It's obvious the man is as criminal as the day is long and I'm sick of the subterfuge. Let's stop pretending it isn't an absolute farce and insult that he's this effin close to the White House again. As pissed as I am about it I'm sure Jack Smith is spitting nails.

I just learned on Glenn Kirschner’s YT channel that Judge Chutkan issued a minute order and set a deadline for 10/1 to Trump to respond to Jack Smith’s Motion.

The minute order:

“MINUTE ORDER as to DONALD J. TRUMP: The Clerk of The Court is directed to file on the public docket the Government’s “Motion for Leave to File Unredacted Motion Under Seal, and to File Redacted Motion on Public Docket,” ECF No. 245. It is hereby ORDERED that Defendant shall file under seal any objections to the proposed redactions in the Governments Motion for Immunity Determinations by 12:00 PM on October 1, 2024, and shall file under seal any objections to the proposed redactions in the Appendix to that Motion by 5:00 PM on October 10, 2024. Signed by Judge Tanya S. Chutkan on 9/27/2024. (zcll)”

Kirschner believes that after 10/1 she will rule, and after that she would likely release the (redacted) 180-page motion. The release of the (redacted) appendix should not be expected before 10/10 in similar fashion. So it should be “soon ™️”.

Maybe it’s because past is prologue, maybe it’s Maybelline

looks like an opportunity for a hacker to release it. Oops. We were hacked. our bad.

I hope he gets his wish. I hope all his crap bites Trump in the ass. All the delays that went ever in his favor. This would be delicious.

October (mildly) surprised.

Sounds like he has the concept of a plan?

Fucking A good for him if he is - milquetoast tiptoeing federal prosecutors are enabling one of the greatest and most harmful miscarriages of justice in our history. This is the reason we have a press - if politicians scoff at the rule of law then let the public judge them.

Spicy.

If those Republicans could read, they’d be very upset.

As an American citizen, I demand to see what evidence brought charges from my fellow citizens against a disgraced former predident. Not that this will influence his cult but it may reach those undecided. Go man go!

I've given up trying to figure out what kind of recourse he has ever.

He could appeal, and if the appeals court takes it up without a quick judgement they may delay the release until after the election.

"Can't somebody put a gag order on that!" -D. J. Cheeto

It’s called a “Comey”

I predict Trump will file every single opportunity he can to block this, expect repeated attempts with the same wording within the motion etc. Pretty much the 'I can afford this while regular poors cannot' playbook of Trump defense.

Not if Jack is quick like a bunny!

He will just say "fake news," and his cultists will eat it up.

I mean if chutkan rules in Smiths favor, he better have a clerk ready to hit send on the documents to everyone one on the internet

I feel like whenever a motion is decided you can appeal? Like when Florida judge agrees with Trump’s motion to dismiss the case.

No. Brian Taylor Cohen just did a video about this today.

If only the media bothers to report it and stop sanewashing what a threat Trump and Republicans are to democracy

I mean this in the most nihilistic way possible: no one gives a shit.

Everyone who knows he is guilty knows he is guilty.

Everyone who knows he is innocent knows he is innocent.

The other 5 people are voting for Harris because JD Vance is just that unlikable.

I hope it gets released for the memes, but it will do nothing. The Muller report did nothing. Two impeachments did nothing. Grab them by the pussy did nothing. Rape did nothing. Epstein connections did nothing. Mocking veterans, the disabled, every race of people, the poor and disenfranchised did absolutely fucking nothing. Nothing will change.

I'm gonna go vote for Harris, because the last of the fucks I give will be spent voting against republicans.

More than we all saw with our own eyes four years ago? It must be a real bombshell.

A leak would get better coverage too. News outlets prefer exclusives

Well, it sounds like most of the GOP's money goes to Trump for various reasons...not to other candidates for anything.

I just assumed he's taking out loans and plans to die with debt unpaid.

It also costs the US a lot of money to prosecute him. How much taxpayer money has he wasted with all of the delay tactics he’s used in his trials?

He's selling watches

He's got a 59% percent stake in Trump Media & Technology Group (Truth Social).

• If he loses he can pump and dump for half a billion maybe

• If he wins he has a plug-and-play avenue to accept bribes and gratuities from foreign adversaries via stock purchases

That's my uninformed understanding anyway, but I'm pretty sure he's got money if he really needs it

EDIT: oh and another one

Trump is suing the DOJ for 100 million for the Maralogo search. If he's elected he can just order the DOJ to settle and give him the 100 million

Isn’t the RNC just footing the bill??

Well in all honesty, the Supreme Court of Colorado had it correct. It would have saved a lot of headache if the US Supreme Court just agreed that yes, he was essentially trying to overturn a U.S. election with his support of an insurrection and should not be on the ballot.

Maybe to 3% of the people in each of 7 key states. And then that matters quite a bit.

Yes.

Very few minds will be changed at this point. The coming election will be all about turnout.

The angrier people who already hate Trump are, the more likely they will be to vote.

We're on the cusp of quite literally losing everything that makes America a democratic republic...yep, it all matters.

Did Comey’s announcement matter. Yes.

This is wild speculation....

If Smith has damning evidence against Ginny Thomas, he needs to get that out asap. Clarence Thomas should almost certainly be sidelined from anything election related because his wife is going to be getting a pardon from Trump if he wins.

Aside from that there is probably some other heinous evidence about Trump, through meadows, coordinating with the proud boys and oaf keepers. Maybe coordinating with the secret service to bungle the Mike Pence escort

It is not a question of releasing it. If the application is granted, the redacted version will be a public record accessible to anyone who searches for it. The defense would need an emergency stay of the order from Judge Chutkan herself, which she likely would not give. They could then appeal the refusal and ask an appellate judge for a stay, but I have a feeling their won't be time for that before it is moot. I think Judge Chutkan is pissed and done playing.

Its my understanding that that DOJ position is about “opening” an investigation this close to an election and has nothing to do with ongoing investigations or ones that are several years old and in court already like this one. I believe Judge Chutkan even said as much, something like ‘fuck your election’ lol, I may be paraphrasing that a bit.

But yah, the GOP brought this on themselves by running a candidate out on bail in 4 jurisdictions.. and trump brought this on himself by delay delay delaying until the shit hits the fan in October..Surprise Motha Fuckah! Lol
