Dirty Jack Smith is fighting to ban video and audio in Trump’s DC March 2024 trial.
In August Trump was hit with 4 counts in Jack Smith’s January 6 case up in DC: Conspiracy to defraud the United States, conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding, and conspiracy against rights.
A group of media organizations referred to as “Media Coalition” applied to “record and telecast” the DC trial.
Jack Smith in a filing earlier this month argued that audio and video should be banned. He knows he doesn’t have a case.
The special counsel is nothing more than a hired gun. He doesn’t want the public to hear his prosecutors argue in court because he knows his case can’t stand up to public scrutiny.
Trump’s lawyers said they would be okay with cameras in the courtroom.
In a Friday night filing, President Trump’s lawyers told the DC court that they want the January 6 show trial “fully televised.”

No gag order for Smith I take it.
“The Revolution should be televised!”
Truly, if there is anyone left in America that still believes in the law, this guy and his bogus lawsuits needs to have a stop put to him and the disgrace he has brought to the legal system..
Jack Smith wants to keep the inquisition under wraps of the bogus rulings and freedom of speech of Trump.
The democrats are rewriting the Constitution by the day and not just for Trump.
They’re not after me they are after you I’m in the way.
Democracy dies in darkness.
The broadcasted OJ’s trial, didn’t they? No problem to put Depp, Rittenhouse, Zimmerman, Alex Jones, etc. on TV.
Courts, in particular criminal cases, are open to the public the the singular reason of preventing/exposing corruption of the court system. The trials of PDJT are far more consequential, and public interest is far greater, than any of those others.
I’d leave it up to the defense. If they want it [to prevent injustice/corruption], or don’t [to avoid undue prejudice/conviction by public sentiment], the state should have no say.

I like that reasoning.
Trump is beating Smith and Smith doesn’t like it.
I just LOVE how Trump gets under the skin of petty tyrants and causes them their heads to blow up!
General Zod needs to be put back into the Phantom Zone
What are you afraid of, Jake?
That people will see what a sleazebag you are?
Not a slogan. A strategy.

What did Jack Smith say? I don’t see it in the article.
Jack Smith couldn’t carry Donald Trump‘s jockstrap. And lady liberty is dead.
Democracy dies with Democrats.
