Summary
Special counsel Jack Smith is finalizing a two-volume report on his investigations into Donald Trump, covering Trump’s handling of classified documents and efforts to overturn the 2020 election.
At least one volume may be released as early as Friday, despite objections from Trump’s lawyers, who argue the release is politically motivated and unconstitutional.
Trump’s classified documents case was dismissed, and both cases were dropped after his presidential win.
The Justice Department has not confirmed whether both volumes will be released simultaneously.
So what? He won’t suffer any consequences and he’s immune to shaming.
I mean, its frustrating as heck how all this is going down.
But releasing something that can be preserved and saved in archives all over the world is better then all records and documents just disappearing.
It will be released. But it will be 200 pages long, with approximately ten total pages worth of sentences not redacted. The only parts not redacted will be things already part of the public record.
This is still Merrick Garland’s DoJ. It doesn’t seek to actively do evil; it’s not Trump’s DoJ. But it does put defense of the powerful above any kind of justice. For Garland, protecting the powerful comes first; justice comes second.
And still nothing will come of it. It’s like everyone forgot the gulf of Tonkin or the Panama papers ever happened. Because nothing actually came of it and it will never matter.
No, fuck that. The record should be made public and preserved for posterity.
Trumps pretty vengeful. He might suffer consequences.
Haha
Came here to say the exact same thing
