Jack Smith is known as a legal hitman who has lost several high-profile cases at the Supreme Court. He managed to get the President of Kosovo imprisoned with no case, and he remains in prison now after three years.
His wife Katy Chevigny is the filmmaker for Becoming, the Michelle Obama flick. Of all the people Attorney General Merrick Garland could choose from, he chose this man. Now we find out the judge who will oversee his case in Democrat D.C. was appointed by Barack Obama and has a bad history with J6.
THE JUDGE
According to the court docket, U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan will oversee the four-count federal case against former President Donald Trump.
She has been handing out stiff sentences for non-violent January 6 defendants and has previously ruled against Trump’s lawyers. She denied his request to assert Executive Privilege.
A four-count indictment of Donald Trump was announced this afternoon. The charges are Obstruction of an Official Proceeding, Conspiracy to Defraud the United States, Conspiracy to Obstruct an Official Proceeding, and Conspiracy Against Rights. There are six co-conspirators.
JUDGE CHUTKAN THINKS J6 WAS AN INSURRECTION
At one hearing, Chutkan called January 6 protesters insurrectionists.
I want to interject here that even Jefferson Davis was not imprisoned for insurrection or anything. He lived to age 81 and died from an illness. This case appears to be set up to win at the expense of past precedent and the right to a jury of his peers, among other problems.
Speaking at a sentencing hearing for a nonviolent rioter who pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of illegally demonstrating in the Capitol, Chutkan said that the rioter “did not go to the United States Capitol out of any love for our country … He went for one man.”
During the same hearing, she described the January 6 episode as “a violent mob seeking to overthrow the lawfully elected government,” adding that the crowd that day posed a “very real danger … to our democracy.”
Chutkan also said that rioters “soiled and defaced the halls of the Capitol and showed their contempt for the rule of law.”
“The country is watching to see what the consequences are for something that has not ever happened in the country before,” she said.
Chutkan sentenced two cousins with extensive criminal records to 45 days in jail for storming the Capitol, a rare and perplexing punishment among convicted January 6 rioters. She blasted the men for their “decision to take that protest and turn it into a violent occupation of the US Capitol … at a time when we were attempting the peaceful transfer of power.”
Julie Kelly has more information about this judge coming out soon.
No, you can only show up at the homes of SCOTUS justices to “lobby” them, attempt to kill them, and shout at and harass them with “demonstrations,” and only to further leftist agendas. Lobbying a federal judge in other circumstances is a felony and just as bad as J6./s
Trump attorneys will hand her her own ass, forcing her to break the rules of evidence, dicovery, and due process repeatedly so they will win on appeal.
Just what is it about the fact that they no longer CARE about the appearance of fairness or justice? You will probably be giggling when the firing squad is taking aim at your chest because everyone will see how mean they are.
Wake the hell up.

Chutkan, the judge overseeing President Trump's case for questioning the 2020 election worked for David Boies, the lawyer that represented Al Gore as he questioned the 2000 election in Florida.
She has a conflict of interest working for the man who represented Gore in an election challenge now trying President Trump for an election challenge.

“Doublethink means the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one’s mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them.”

It might be a good thing for Trump that the judge is a crazy Trump hater. She might screw up the trial.
“I may be misinformed at best, or a dimwit at worst, but...how the hell is it possible or permissible that Garland gets to choose a judge for ANY case?”
The judges are not chosen by prosecutors. They are randomly picked from a list of available judges. Same process that gave Trump Aileen Cannon, a judge he appointed, in the documents case.
Ultimately, both of these cases are going to SCOTUS though.
