PING!
What an ugly man too. Talk about a loser.....wow.
It’s up to Judge Cannon, not Hague shyster Smith.
He’s a nobody. Federal Judge going nowhere, so he bails and gets to be a general counsel at Boeing.
Loser.
So once this happens the trial can start right? Nope! Then it goes back to the appeals court and the appeals court has to review all of Trump's immunity claims again under the newly established Supreme Court standard which will take weeks if not months.
So, say it's now September and the appeals court again rejects Trump's presidential immunity claims under the new standard. Now the trial starts, right? Nope! Trump can appeal to the Supreme Court again saying the appeals court misinterpreted the standard.
Let's say Jack Smith gets a lucky break this time and the Supreme Court declines the appeal. Now it's mid to late September. So, the trial HAS to start now, right? Well, we're getting closer, but now the defense can start filing pre-trial motions, there will be evidentiary hearings on what to allow and what to reject, and all this will take weeks or months before Jury selection is even slated to begin.
Long story short, a trial before the election isn't happening even under the best-case scenario for Jack Smith.
This guy used to be one of the most reputed judges out there
And to think, this jerk was being considered by George W. Bush for a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court.
Jack Smith and Biden have pushed their luck a bit far for any action the Supreme Court holds the last card for the deal.
Didn’t HUGH HEWITT want him to be a SUPREME COURT JUSTICE??? He sounds LIKE A WEIRDO!!
He’ a Bushie, so not the least bit surprising. Wanted to use the 14th amendment on Trump to make him ineligible to run a second term.
This guy is severely mentally ill. He really should admitted for long term care in an asylum.
Jack Smith isn’t even legally appointed.
This is an improper comment for a judge or an attorney because it would be malicious prosecution and abuse of process.
Is Luttig a creation of GWB?
This guy is representative of the politicized garbage we have been putting on District Court benches the past 3 decades.
Article 3 says that the Justices serve "during good behavior," and Article I says that Congress "shall in all Cases, except Treason, Felony and Breach of the Peace, be privileged from Arrest during their Attendance at the Session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same; and for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place."
It is only the President who has no protection for their behavior in the elected office?
Is "good behavior" for the Justices limited only to when they are on the bench hearing oral arguments or when they release their rulings, but at no other time?
Is "going to and returning from" Congress an official act of Congress or is it a secondary act that is still protected?
So why are enemies of President Trump arguing that the President has no immunities for himself, or that they are so limited in scope to be narrower than even the members of Congress and the Supreme Court enjoy?
