HOLY SH*T: Supreme Court will review 1512(c)(2), obstruction of an official proceeding case.
This is felony used against 300+ J6ers and represents half of Jack Smith’s indictment against Trump.
If SCOTUS determines DOJ has misused the statute...will be a game changer.
My explainer:
This is a day so many J6ers have been waiting for.
Lives destroyed, people rotting in prison. All bc Biden’s DOJ abused a post-Enron evidence tampering statute.
And what will Jack Smith do now? 2 of 4 counts in his indictment in jeopardy. This is potentially more impactful than immunity issue.
Will he drop the 1512c2-related counts? Will he seek a superseding indictment with other charges?
Trump’s lawyers presumably will file a motion to dismiss those counts.
Never a boring day!

This event will place the US SC on the top Q watch list for capture or for justice.
Jack has some nervous judges over these cases, who are not comfortable making new law, in the face of a Trump ACQUITTAL on all charges by the US Senate.
The question of presidential privilege & immunity already has legal precedent in Clinton’s “sock drawer” case, and his pal, Sandy Berger, got off after stuffing docs in his socks and pants from the National Archives.
PS: Btw, the National Archives is still due to release a gazillion-thousand Biden emails, (numbers dwarfing HRC’s 30k missing emails).
Biden will need a bigger “cloth” than Hillary.
