Quote HistoryQuoted: Fair point, I don't mean frivolous in the technical sense, but my impression is that it's mostly a lot of delay tactics. I spent some time scanning the various motions and arguments this afternoon. I have no idea what it takes to get a dismissal based on "selective and vindictive prosecution", but pursuing it seems to serve Trump in at least two ways. He gets whatever delays it generates, and he gets support for his victim narrative. Everybody knows the best way out of all this stuff is for him to win the election, so regardless of what happens with these motions he benefits. It seems like a weak argument to me, but I guess we'll find out what the judge thinks in a couple months. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: So much for our predictions that the case sucked so bad that SCOTUS would kill it. It sucked so bad that it just withered up and died. What are you talking about? Why does anybody think it's significant that she postponed the trial date? If you paid attention to any legitimate legal commentary on this case, nobody actually thought that date would not be moved. Everybody expected multiple months of continued delay because Trump's team is making a bunch of frivolous motions and this judge takes forever to decide on anything. Trump's team made this delay happen very intentionally, and everybody knows it. What happened today was completely expected and predictable. When the judge actually issues a ruling on something then maybe there will be something worth talking about. You get to choose to believe whether a Federal District Court judge postponing trial because of alleged discovery violations is a big deal. I would say it's a big deal, and that not setting a new date until after the motions are heard is also a pretty big deal. Not sure who your legitimate legal commentariat includes. What was their take on Russian Collusion? Frivolous motions? Frivolous has a pretty specific meaning in legal circles. I'm not sure why a Federal judge would set frivolous motions for hearing. What's your defense of this premise? Defendants intentionally delay cases all the time. So what? Is the prosecution's case in chief damaged in a mother-fucking paper case by delay? I'll answer that last one. No. Paper cases move forward even with delay. Only the political hit is damaged by the delay if it's a legitimate case. On the flip side, the defense get's the chance to review evidence and hold the people to their burden, which is their duty.

If you've read the supporting docs this should be easy for you to articulate. The entire point of a discussion thread is to discuss and pick apart each other's ideas. What arguments do you consider weak and why? |

So, to summarize (since I don't speak Lawyereze):
1. Archives and the Whitehouse collaborated before the raid. There's an opinion? that says 'shit like this happens in one term admins, give it time'. 2. Biden pulls (in an unusual move) Trump's Clearance. 3. There's a Raid in August at Mar A Lago. 4. FBI brings those 'Classified' covers with them...the ones they released the photos of to the public. 5. Boxes are hauled to DC rather than in the jurisdiction (Florida) to be dealt with by the 'head office' area of the FBI. 6. They move files out of position in the boxes and 'put those covers' in the boxes to represent the position of the classified docs. But so far, nobody is sure if the markers are where the files were supposed to be, and what they were next to? 7. DOE puts out an opinion (for the first time) that says Trump loses his access when he loses his office (never a written opinion before, and the date of his access to nuclear info wasn't the day he was sworn in). 8. Special Prosecutor's office just now admitted to 4 and 6 above. Somewhere in there (2.5 months after the Raid on Mar A Lago) Biden and Pence turned over classified docs they had that were (at least in Biden's case) in insecure locations and neither should have held on to because they were not the classifying authority. Am I correct so far? |

It would just give the Left and MSM additional talking points on how Domestic MAGA Terrorists are destroying the fabric of democracy. Jack Smith is going to lose with the full weight of the swamp behind him and when Trump goes on his Law & Order tour, he'll be given a wider berth given the precedents now being set. |

I am still trying to find the photo of when the FBI recovered Joey's STOLEN docs and had them spread out all over his garage and the hood of his Corvette with similar cover sheets . Has to exist as that is SOP isn't it ? , maybe it was at the Penn Biden center ? If not , why not ? They hauled the boxes away most likely undisturbed and sealed shut . |

Nothing is over until TDS decide it is! Was it over when the Trump really didn’t piss on hookers in Obama’s hotel bed? Hell no! GD : [to @M4-AK] pissing on hookers? @M4-AK : Forget it, he's rolling. @cmiller : And it ain't over now. 'Cause when Biden, the DOJ and FBI gets caught falsifying evidence'….. [thinks hard of something to say] @cmiller : The Biden, the DOJ and FBI just falsifies more evidence! Who believes me? Let's go!…….AH……. Brilliant! |

I should have stopped arguing with him a long time ago and just ignored his posts. He makes big claims, never backs them up, moves the goalposts, cherry picks, etc. It's just all the usual common logical fallacies that almost always dominate Internet discourse. Then if you answer him with a good point he just ignores it and repeats the same original claims again. In this specific instance, after reading both the defense motion and the government's response, I stated my opinion that the arguments being made by Trump's team seemed weak. He demanded that I be specific, yet I'd bet he hasn't even read the documents I was reacting to. Why would I waste my time explaining my thoughts, so he can do more straw man and red herring and nut picking and cherry picking and whatever else he comes up with without even reading the source documents? I've seen most of it, other threads too. I don't recall this particular question, and it's odd you are refusing to answer it despite having an opinion on the subject. |

@Cmiller
When you encounter one person saying you suck and you're a projecting asshole, then maybe that person is the asshole. When that's all you encounter all day, maybe you are the asshole. BTW, got any guns or shooting topics that you are interested in? Or, is that not included in your forum sliding job description? |

Good question. I'm not sure whether the funding for the special prosecutor comes out of the general budget or whether they have to appropriate "special" funds for the "special" prosecutor. If it's the latter, there may be an opportunity to cut it off. If it's the former, they'll have to wait until they pass another CR. |

Why is this a pinned topic?
 Pinning a topic is a sure way to kill visibility and in turn discussion. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I'm obviously talking about what is being argued by the defense in the case right now. If you haven't read the motion and responses you wouldn't understand. They are elevating cherry picking and taking quotes out of context to an art form. There's no chain of custody anymore. The evidence has been compromised. |

Guns are boring to me now, I did all that many years ago in various forums, as well as doing lots of lurking here over the last 10+ years. Let me know when somebody comes up with something new and innovative worth talking about.  (But for what it's worth, I do read plenty of threads about other topics, I just rarely have anything to contribute) Believe it or not, I really don't care what happens with Trump. I could see reasons to be happy regardless of which way any of these court cases go or the election. What I'm really interested in is all the legal questions that are coming up because of him. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: So, to summarize (since I don't speak Lawyereze): 1. Archives and the Whitehouse collaborated before the raid. There's an opinion? that says 'shit like this happens in one term admins, give it time'. Quote HistoryQuoted: So, to summarize (since I don't speak Lawyereze): 1. Archives and the Whitehouse collaborated before the raid. There's an opinion? that says 'shit like this happens in one term admins, give it time'. More like there was communication and coordination between various parts of the executive branch while doing executive functions. I suggest reading the defense motion and various ensuing responses if you want to understand this one much better. 2. Biden pulls (in an unusual move) Trump's Clearance. I don't think this is a thing, all I've seen is Biden saying he's not going to give Trump classified briefings because he thinks he is a security risk. 3. There's a Raid in August at Mar A Lago. 4. FBI brings those 'Classified' covers with them...the ones they released the photos of to the public. Not so fast -- read page 4 of this thread: https://www.ar15.com/forums/general/Remember-this-pic-from-the-FBI-Mar-a-Lago-raid-/5-2724051/&page=4 I know everybody is making the claim, but I want to know the evidence that shows we are looking at the placeholders in that picture and not the actual document covers. 5. Boxes are hauled to DC rather than in the jurisdiction (Florida) to be dealt with by the 'head office' area of the FBI. Seems reasonable, considering it's dealing with highly sensitive national security stuff, right? 6. They move files out of position in the boxes and 'put those covers' in the boxes to represent the position of the classified docs. But so far, nobody is sure if the markers are where the files were supposed to be, and what they were next to? There's no claim that they aren't all in the correct boxes, The question is whether they were at Mar-A-Lago, not what order they were in the boxes. 7. DOE puts out an opinion (for the first time) that says Trump loses his access when he loses his office (never a written opinion before, and the date of his access to nuclear info wasn't the day he was sworn in). 8. Special Prosecutor's office just now admitted to 4 and 6 above. Somewhere in there (2.5 months after the Raid on Mar A Lago) Biden and Pence turned over classified docs they had that were (at least in Biden's case) in insecure locations and neither should have held on to because they were not the classifying authority. Am I correct so far? |

Mostly problems with the chain of custody go to weight not to whether it would be admitted. Sometimes evidence can be so compromised that it cannot be admitted. We will see with this but my wild speculation is that the evidence would be admitted and a competent lawyer would spend hours and hours on C/X attempting to challenge the verity of the evidence. It's a different question whether the posed pictures with the ZOMG TOP SECRET covers were done and leaked to prejudice the defendant in the press and taint the jury pool. Hint: they were. |

(In this case, my preferred narrative is that all of this is just a really bad dream. )2. I think it's a good thing to help people if you can, so when somebody asks if they are understanding things correctly and I think I have information relevant to their question, I try to be helpful and offer what I can. 3. If I have no credibility, then I guess it's a good thing I don't make posts that are based on my credibility.
