Just when you thought Jack Smith's J6 case against Donald Trump couldn't get any more laughable--it just did.
In one week, SCOTUS will hear arguments on DOJ's (ab)use of 1512c2, post Enron document shredding "obstruction of an official proceeding" statute passed in 2002.
My longtime followers know I've covered this issue for 3+ years. More than 330 J6ers and Trump have been charged with this felony obstruction count--now SCOTUS has a chance to right an horrific wrong that has destroyed (and ended) lives as this ruthless DOJ intentionally misinterprets the law to criminalize political dissent.
DOJ's use of the law barely survived 2 appellate challenges. Thank you Judge Flo Pan, Biden appointee and wife of Dem Party activist Max Stier, for being the deciding vote in both 2-1 decisions!
Now her opinion faces long-awaited SCOTUS scrutiny.
If SCOTUS reverses how DOJ has applied 1512c2--and most observers even on the left expect the court will--the decision would gut Smith's J6 indictment. 2 of 4 counts involve 1512c2.
BUT--Jack (9-0 SCOTUS) Smith now claims even if SCOTUS overturns DOJ application of 1512c2, those related counts in his Trump indictment will stand.
Why?
Because the alternative electoral certificates represent "documents" that were fraudulently used in an "official proceeding."
Pieces of paper signed and sent by other Americans to protest of a rigged election are now equal to accounting records destroyed in service of covering up a crime.
This is from his SCOTUS brief filed last night in the presidential immunity question.
Can't make it up. Hope the justices are paying attention:
BTW "evidence impairment" element is not "gloss" as Jack Smith describes it.
The language is literally in the effin statute.
Controversy over the use of 1512c2 centers around a few factors.

I fail to see the humor.
nothing short of a pound of flesh will do.
it all depends on just how “bought” the current supreme court roster is and how many true ideologues are among them. seems tough for the typical patriotic American citizen to see and accept how compromised our leadership really is...but it Really is.
But the earth keeps spinning and circling the sun.
May all be blessed.
...Earth revolves in orbit around the Sun in 365 days, 6 hours,
9 minutes with reference to the stars, at a speed ranging from
29.29 to 30.29 km/s. The 6 hours, 9 minutes adds up to about
an extra day every fourth year, which is designated a leap year,
with the extra day added as February 29th.
What is “Jack Smith’s” REAL name?
Smith’s behavior (and those pulling his strings) strike me as that of someone who doesn’t fear any consequences, and feels they have nothing to lose.
LOL. Always wondered about that.
bkmk
John Luman Smith
The SOB”s jailed a great grandmother for so called J6 crimes.
Sharing a link to where people can donate to support Lavrenz’s legal expenses, Trump said the grandmother and “small business owner” is now “one of Joe Biden’s J6 HOSTAGES!!!”
Dems already said they will NOT certify Trumps electors and they will NOT allow Trump in the WH. REALLY?
THAT is election denying and trying to overturn the “will of the people” and their votes. The END of Democracy. Oh NO
Dems are pure evil and very good cheaters although I have renewed hope w Lara Trump and Mr. Whatley on the RNC Cmte.
BTTT

Disciple of Satan
Always beware those who have lost everything because they have nothing more to lose and thus tend to “lose it” ( their minds).
Yes. Fanatic Jack Off Smith is behaving with impunity. I hope he goes one inch over the line so we can nail him for prosecutorial misconduct.

So, when Nancy Pelosi tore up The State of The Union official copy in front of television cameras, that act “was not shredding an official document”? Since it was by a democrat, that is.
See, delivering the “State of the Union” to the Speaker of the House of Representatives IS a legal requirement in the Constitution. That it has become a speech and rhetorical comedy recently is merely acting for the cameras.
