From early in Bill’s contribution: The attorney general will surely refuse Trump’s demand’ - bwahaha.

We all know Trump is going to pardon his codefendants in Florida. So I suggest President Biden(who has immunity) pardon those two, ending the case, leaving Judge Cannon and the courts without jurisdiction and ordering Garland to release the entire Smith report immediately. That is the only way we ever see it unless some risks prison to leak it.

There is an easy answer here: Biden releases the report, regardless of the stay granted by Cannon. It's an Official Act and thus fully subject to immunity.

The difference between politicians whitewashing racial discrimination of the past and politicians trying to whitewash the Jan 6 attack on the Capitol is that we SAW with our own eyes the insurrection...LIVE and in color on every national network for hours and hours. That can't be whitewashed.

Trump is a bonkers boor. No other country is going to take his threats sitting down.

Don, Jr, real estate mogul, is traveling to Greenland to size up some waterfront property. There's scuttlebutt that a Trump Tower is being considered. Lots of opportunities. Talk to your congressperson about what it will cost to get you in on the ground floor.

I think Garland should tell Cannon to go pee in the woods and release the report. What army is she gonna send? Or better yet, release it to the Pirates of the Shiny Sea. The whole world can then download it.

Why in hell didn’t Garland release it as soon as Smith handed it to him?

Update: The Oath-breaking SoB and his legal sycophants filed a brief today urging Judge Aileen Cannon prevent the U.S. Attorney General from releasing the required, by statute, of the Special Counsel reports on the insurrection and theft of Presidential records cases.

Surprise! Judge Cannon (almost) immediately complied, apparently based on her previous denial of the constitutionality of the Special Counsel's appointment.

Someone clue me into the Gore thing? There was a plan to have him not certify?

I think it is about the election that was really stolen from Al Gore when he was denied a recount in FL. Then Gore, as VP, had to preside over the certification of his own loss....like Kamala just did....and as Mike Pence did.

As long as there are corrupt federal judges like Aileen Cannon and the MAGA supermajority on the U.S. Supreme Court, Trump, despite his serial criminality, will continue to walk between the raindrops and fly comfortably above the law. This is how our democracy is dying – not in darkness, but in broad daylight.

This US Space Force base might have something to do with it:

Where are leakers when we need them? A lot more sensitive information, i.e. real defense secrets, has made its way to the public.

Release the Smith Report

Not so fast... https://www.cnn.com/2025/01/06/politics/trump-smith-special-counsel-final-report/index.html

District Judge Aileen Cannon on Tuesday blocked the release of special counsel Jack Smith’s final report

I can only imagine the reaction from JVL.
