Oh my, how times change.

That Jack Smith is desperate to convict Donald Trump before he can be nominated is the worst kept secret in the world at the moment.

Special Counsel Jack Smith is working overtime to imprison former U.S. President Donald Trump prior to the 2024 presidential election, admits CNN legal expert Elie Honig. Smith is working to fast-track numerous criminal indictments against Trump with the ultimate goal of a conviction that could disrupt the former President’s campaign endeavours, in a flagrant election interference attempt by the Biden regime.

Smith's procedural efforts are way out of the norm

Honig pointed out on CNN that Smith’s urgency is evident in his procedural requests. For instance, Smith initially sought a trial date five months out for a case of significant complexity, considerably shorter than the typical one-and-a-half to two years for most federal conspiracy and fraud trials. Moreover, he observed that Smith’s immediate appeal to the Supreme Court following a district court victory on immunity confirms his rush against time.

Trump maintains that these indictments are politically motivated.

Of course they're politically motivated. Joe Biden has weaponized the legal system against Trump back in 2022 when made clear to Merrick Garland that he wanted Trump prosecuted.

A new report claims President Joe Biden has told people he wants former President Donald Trump to be prosecuted.

The leak was published in the New York Times on Saturday as Democrats mount increasing pressure on the Justice Department to take action against Trump and people within his orbit in relation to the Capitol riot. At focus are Attorney General Merrick Garland and his "deliberative approach," as the report put it, which is causing frustration.

All of the legal proceedings against Trump are scheduled to maximally interfere with his potential Presidential campaign. Smith wants to deny Trump his right to appeal and go straight to trial.

Mr. Smith wants the Court to skip the normal appellate process through the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals and rule promptly so the Jan. 6 trial can begin on March 4.

Hard to make this more obvious than it is.

The other day I caught something from Byron York. He posted a link to CNN senior analyst @eliehonig about the actions of Federal prosecutors. It'd in the Justice manual

This could not be more obvious. It should be Trump's get out of trial card and that brings me back to three years ago.

David Weiss, the weasel US attorney for Maryland and Biden mafia family protector, foot-dragged the Hunter Biden investigation in 2020. He intentionally allowed the statute of limitations to run out on the worst of Hunter Biden's tax evasion crimes and buried the laptop story under the guise of not interfering in an election.

let’s make it clear that there is no direct evidence linking Trump to whatever happened in DC on Jan 6. He was not there nor did he ever tell anyone to invade the Capitol or act in an illegal manner. He directed them to act “peacefully.”

It’s as simple as that. He never incited a riot, he never encouraged anyone to enter the Capitol, he never told anyone to interfere with the certification.
