Exactly.
If the government is headed in the direction of becoming a banana republic if we do nothing, there is zero excuse for doing nothing. It is the very time to act.
As for the DC court system being rotten, it seems that the chief justice could rule that a federal case may be tried in any federal court in the US.
Regardless, present rules and laws allow appeal eventually to the Supreme Court.
Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure Rule 18. Place of Prosecution and TrialThe ONLY way a serious and fair Grand Jury and trial would be held would be to change venue to some far-away state. This Rule 18 makes that almost impossible to do. DOJ would have to change Rule 18 and, because DOJ is still run by Deep State swamp creatures, that would be almost impossible to do.
Unless a statute or these rules permit otherwise, the government must prosecute an offense in a district where the offense was committed. The court must set the place of trial within the district with due regard for the convenience of the defendant, any victim, and the witnesses, and the prompt administration of justice.Notes of Advisory Committee on Rules—1944
1. The Constitution of the United States, Article III. Section 2, Paragraph 3, provides:
The Trial of all Crimes, except in Cases of Impeachment, shall be by Jury; and such Trial shall be held in the State where the said Crimes shall have been committed; but when not committed within any State, the Trial shall be at such Place or Places as the Congress may by Law have directed.Amendment VI provides:
In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law.28 U.S.C. former §114 (now §§1393, 1441) provides:
All prosecutions for crimes or offenses shall be had within the division of such districts where the same were committed, unless the court, or the judge thereof, upon the application of the defendant, shall order the cause to be transferred for prosecution to another division of the district.The word “prosecutions,” as used in this statute, does not include the finding and return of an indictment. The prevailing practice of impaneling a grand jury for the entire district at a session in some division and of distributing the indictments among the divisions in which the offenses were committed is deemed proper and legal, Salinger v. Loisel, 265 U.S. 224, 237. The court stated that this practice is “attended with real advantages.” The rule is a restatement of existing law and is intended to sanction the continuance of this practice. For this reason, the rule requires that only the trial be held in the division in which the offense was committed and permits other proceedings to be had elsewhere in the same district.
"...but when not committed within any State, the Trial shall be at such Place or Places as the Congress may by Law have directed." The District of Columbia is not a state. Because these are process crimes and were lying to the FBI or Congress, they were DC. If you could argue the crime was committed elsewhere, could Congress pass a law directing the trial to be held in another locale? But there's no way the Democrat controlled House would pass such a law - they want all such trials to be held in DC, the enemy to Republicans and freedom.
Because all of these crimes are committed in the DC District, abolish that district (as another poster suggested) and scatter these cases throughout the country where people don't depend on Fedzilla for a living.
