The White House counsel’s office met with a top aide to Special Counsel Jack Smith just weeks before he brought charges against former President Trump for allegedly mishandling classified documents — raising serious concerns about coordinated legal efforts aimed at President Biden’s likely opponent in 2024.
Jay Bratt, who joined the special counsel team in November 2022, shortly after it was formed, took a meeting in the White House on March 31, 2023, with Caroline Saba, deputy chief of staff for the White House counsel’s office, White House visitor logs show.

Was there ever any doubt???
Bidenskyyyyy is interfering with the upcoming presidential election. Quid Pro Joe wants to sink his opponent so he won’t need all those fraudulent ‘mail in’ banana boater voter ballots this time. Getting them printed up and filled out can be expensive and he’s running out of promises like his Deadbeat Student Loan fiasco. They’re expensive too. Costs the U.S. taxpayers lots of money.
Well Kevin, we’re waiting
Doing the RINOs work for them.
They are just adding bananas to the flag....
The White House and party fears the results of the damage they caused over the last 4 years nothing will help them they went to far.
The government is We The People not we the party who owns it.
The courts will be working late for a long time.
OBOZO is calling shots.
This is direct election interference. This is what Nixon was going to be impeached for and why he was thrown out of the office.
This is a direct assault on democracy and a seditious action of our Republic.
Yep.
Giuliani is spot on.
BTTT
The Delaware Way.
Did money change hands?
Imagine them all linking together in a circle, facing down like a football team and then shouting “Get Trump!” and jumping upward in unison.
Collusion.
Anyone with any sense knew that Biden or his puppetmasters have been in charge of getting all these cases up and running. One of the DoJs top lawyers was transferred to Alvin Bragg’s office, there’s also evidence that Smith or someone in his office called Willis before the GA case was filed. All these cases were brought to try to eliminate Trump and to take attention away from the Biden Crime Family corruption.
The biggest problem with Hunter Biden’s access-peddling business
may have been that his father, the president, thought it was fine.

Attorney General Merrick Garland’s decision to convert the federal prosecutor investigating Hunter Biden into a special counsel ensures that Democrats will be fielding uncomfortable questions throughout the 2024 presidential campaign.
They would do well to think before they speak. Asked one such question in a television interview in May, President Joe Biden insisted, “My son’s done nothing wrong.”
But is that true?
It now seems quite likely that Hunter Biden has violated one or more U.S. laws. And that’s not all the wrong he has done. There is a difference between what is technically illegal and what is wrong.
Some context may help explain the chasm that has opened up between the two—the gulf between what most ordinary Americans understand as corruption and the mincing definition that reigns in the professional spheres of politics, the law, and big business.
Since 1987, and most recently in May of this year, a series of Supreme Court cases has relentlessly narrowed the legal definition of corruption. This is the body whose cavalier attitude toward its own ethics has disenchanted many Americans. The Court has whittled down what was once our right to the “honest services” of our public servants to a rule outlawing only the trade of “official acts” performed as part of government duties for money or material gifts. Then the Court chipped away at what counts as an “official act.”
Pressuring subordinates or hosting an official lunch? Closing traffic lanes on the busiest bridge in the United States to pursue a political vendetta? In decision after decision, each of these was disqualified.

Imagine that. No wonder the charges look like an 8th grader thought them up. 😆
Big Joey has “plausible deniability”.
