JUST IN: Judge Chutkan has *granted* Jack Smith's proposal to submit a 180-page brief full of evidence related to Trump's criminal charges in Washington, D.C.
She again says Trump's claim this would be unfair politically has no bearing on her ruling.

Obama Judge Tanya Chutkan Grants Jack Smith’s Request to Submit 180-Page ‘Hit Piece’ on Trump
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/09/obama-judge-tanya-chutkan-grants-jack-smiths-request/
Judge Tanya Chutkan on Tuesday approved Jack Smith’s request to submit a 180-page ‘opening brief’ on President Trump in the January 6 DC case.
Jack Smith knows he can’t get to trial before the election so he is trying to release a “hit piece” on Trump in the January 6 case as he addresses the Supreme Court’s presidential immunity ruling.
Tanya Chutkan, the Obama-appointed judge overseeing the case, previously signed off on Jack Smith’s request for an “irregular” filing.
Jack Smith requested to file a 180-page document so he can attack Trump before the election.
Trump’s attorneys previously asked Chutkan to deny Jack Smith’s request to file a 180-page opening brief because it is quadruple the page limit in DC.
“The Motion is a new development illustrating the unprecedented and irregular nature of the Office’s approach on remand, as they are seeking permission to file a document that would quadruple the standard page limits in this District. The Office cites no case in which such relief was granted, just as they cited no authority for the previous request to file a free-standing brief relating to Presidential immunity that is not responsive to a pending defense motion,” Trump’s lawyers wrote in a 9-page court filing
Trump’s attorneys rightfully argued that Jack Smith’s allegations presented through the 180-page document will “enter the dialogue around the election.”
They also argued that the gag order prevents Trump from even responding to the allegations and explaining in detail why Jack Smith’s selective biased account is inaccurate.
“False, public allegations by the Special Counsel’s Office, presented through a document that has no basis in the traditional criminal justice process, will undoubtedly enter the dialogue around the election. The Gag Order prevents President Trump from explaining in detail why the Office’s selective and biased account is inaccurate without risking contempt penalties. While the D.C. Circuit modified and addressed the Gag Order previously, the court was careful to note that “the general election is almost a year away, and will long postdate the trial in this case,” Trump’s attorneys wrote.
Trump’s attorneys said the Justice Department should stick to its ’60-day rule’ by citing former FBI Director James Comey.
“The huge public filing that the Motion portends would also violate the Justice Manual, which prohibits “Actions that May Have an Impact on an Election.” Justice Manual § 9-85.500 (emphasis added). “Federal prosecutors and agents may never select the timing of any action, including investigative steps, criminal charges, or statements, for the purpose of affecting any election, or for the purpose of giving an advantage or disadvantage to any candidate or political party,” they wrote.
Judge Chutkan blasted Trump as she denied his requests of reconsideration of the pre-trial briefing schedule.
People have already moved past the trials. The lawfare was the Democrat’s plan A and it thankfully, fizzled. Nobody cares about it any more and it won’t move the needle to any significant degree.
She’s absolutely disgusting.
BTW, it’s still wrong. But it will have minimal effect.
Hack the Hack.
How does hack Smith have standing?
“Stooge” Chutkan...
Really? They put a specific line item in the funding resolution to fund Jack Smith?
I somehow doubt that.
It may actually work in Trump's favor. Only the blindly partisan cannot see the lawfare aspects of this effort.
Meanwhile, the GOP continues to fund Jack.
And where’s the outrage from the entire Republican Party?
FIRE AND WIRE
I’m hoping it will remind people of all the lawfare and backfire bigly.
Pretty unbelievable. She’s not even trying to hide her contempt and bias. Dies DJT have an appeal option?
More effing Communist Show Trial bullcrap.
Yes, she is. Where do these liberal judges get their appointments except by liberal politicians. It is sad what has happened to OUR AMERICA. I remember the Presidential election in 1968. Our SF officers, NCO’s, and our AF 20th SOS helicopter squadron all sat down in our club and discussed things. It was a no brainer as LeMay was going to give us bombs all over the North, Laos, and Cambodia. We cared about winning plus more air support. We wanted to save more of our men.
Lying and cheating is all they know. All while the uniparty does nothing.
