It’s not weak.. it’s ABSURD.
Even weaklings Birr Barr & Andrew McCarthy are singing the tune of the Uniparty communists. Both have offered their two cents, that isn't worth a plug nickel, about this case, & it differs from your take. While I agree with your take, election theft has consequences, and the consequences are upon us, not the thieves.
Are you just not paying attention?
The most important point is that Trump did not lack “authorization” to take or possess the documents to his office/residence in Florida. They were taken there on 1/18/21, while he was still POTUS. The “Clinton sock drawer” case, which followed binding DC Circuit precedent, stands for the proposition that the National Archives has no authority to order a former POTUS to return items to the government. Moreover, Trump possessed COPIES of documents, not the originals, so the government still has the originals. These are not government documents because Trump packed them up and, with AUTHORITY, i.e., his authority, he removed them from the White House.
That is the best presentation I’ve seen so far.
I always fund AUSA’s in this district to be cowardly when it came to accepting cases that weren’t exclusively FBI-originated, and overly protective of their carefully preserved 98.3 % conviction rate, though when asked if they calculated such a score, would usually claim it didn’t happen.
It’s what you’d expect when the USA of the district is a pol.
I am also a lawyer. This guy makes very good points. The last one is not really a defense though. It’s just the sad truth.
He touches on it. Briefly. In passing. But none of these "experts" seem to focus on the CRITICAL threshold issue of an articulable REASONABLE SUSPICION (RS) of a crime to even start an investigation and PROBABLE CAUSE (PC) to charge ("indict").
So far I see no nexus between the statutes being used, and facts about why and who reasonably believed Trump committed a crime against those statutes. Instead, from all appearances, they are illegally using Court proceedings to see if they can ferret out RS and PC, just like they have done with their frivolously and illegal accusations and charges from day one of Trump's initial presidential announcement.
WHY DOES NO ONE CALL OUT THE ABSENCE OF RS AND/OR PROBABLE CAUSE without which further Court proceedings are simply unconstitutional and, thus, illegal????
Again, this is the "Grand Inquisitor" stuff of totalitarian regimes that need no legal justification for their actions.
Yes. Smoke the ☭Dem B_tards.
