Judge Chutkan Acknowledges She Is ‘Risking Reversal’ No Matter How She Rules In Trump Case
Daily Caller ^ | 05 Sep 2024 | Katelynn Richardson

Judge Tanya Chutkan acknowledged Thursday that appeals are certain no matter how she rules on pending immunity issues in former President Donald Trump’s Jan. 6 case.

During the first hearing since the federal case was paused in December, attorneys argued about the timeline for handling a range of issues that must be resolved before moving forward...

Trump’s attorney John Lauro emphasized there is no need to rush to judgement, but Chutkan responded that everybody knows her ruling will be appealed.

“We’re hardly sprinting to a finish line here,” Chutkan said, noting it’s difficult to even contemplate a trial date with “looming appellate issues.”...“I’m risking reversal no matter what I do,”...

She’s risking the entire Free World or what’s left of it.

Maybe she can get a job with the Venezuelan Supreme “court”. She’ll fit right in.

So her statements, along with the video admission of Nick “Biased” at the DOJ, only affirm that this is all Kabuki theater and is going nowhere.

“Let me close with this. Donald Trump is a genuine threat to this nation. That is not hyperbole. He’s a threat to our freedom. He’s a threat to our democracy. He is literally a threat to the America that we stand for.”

“We’re done talking about the debate, it’s time to put Trump in a bullseye”

[Trump was shot on July 13th, a mere five days later, when Trump came to speak within an hour’s drive of where the assassin lived.]

“the judge said, Trump’s words were ‘an implicit call for imminent violence or lawlessness” that is not protected by presidential immunity or the First Amendment.’

“The D.C. Circuit agreed with the lower court’s finding”

Pennsylvania authorities should submit a case to a grand jury.

If the grand jury returns an indictment, Pennsylvania should endeavor to legally secure Biden’s residences and get an injunction barring the US government from flying him outside the USA.

Biden Threat ‘To Put Trump in a Bullseye’ Met With Shrugs, in Contrast With Firestorm Over Palin ‘Crosshairs’
NY Sun ^ | Wednesday, July 10, 2024 | DEAN KARAYANIS
Will Biden be accused of advocating violence the way, say, the Alert Alaskan was condemned for inspiring an attempt on a congresswoman’s life? “It’s time to put Trump in a bullseye,” President Biden is heard telling supporters in a recent conversation. Will he be accused of advocating violence the way, say, Governor Palin of Alaska was accused of inspiring an attempt on a congresswoman’s life?

She could save herself all kinds of embarrassment by just slashing her wrists the correct way.

John Roberts is over the DC circuit. He needs to accept an immediate emergency appeal and issue an injunction. This is her directly challenging the Supreme Court.

Another Jamaican refugee ho pushing American “white dudes” around. They are a disgrace. They came here looking for “a better life” and the first thing they do is start with dismantling our country.

Risking reversal!?!

BS!

She claimed PDJT had no immunity.

SCOTUS said the president has lots of immunity, which is a qualified reversal of Chutkan.

She is prone to being reversed because she’s biased against PDJT and doesn’t know the law as she should. Therefore, she’s always in danger of being reversed!

Trump has absolute immunity to anything related to election integrity. That’s his direct responsibility and certainly the outer limits. This case is a joke and it’s only purpose is to generate negative headlines. The country is circling the drain and 50% can’t see it because they are blinded by hate.

Not if she follows the law. But, she knows she is not going to follow it because she wants to interfere with the election and do her part to see Trump lose. If it gets over turned on appeal, so what? She’s done her part to save Democracy.
We need to call for her resignation and disbarrment.

More like thumbing her nose at them. I’d be pretty annoyed, if I were them.
