This story contains more concentrated abuse of the rule of law and Putin Hitler style use of the government legal machine to prosecute political enemies than any story so far. As always, Trump goes with incompetents and beauty contestants  to go after his political enemies.  The person appointed federal prosecutor for the eastern district of Virginia has zero prosecutorial experience, and was a defense insurance lawyer when she quit going to beauty pageants..  

As a sidenote, she was almost certainly illegally appointed, and in another sideshow, it appears Pam Bondy backdated an appointment to try to make it legal. There is so much shit going on that is it is unfortunate that no one is seeing this story, as it encapsulates the utter unfitness of office for Trump and his entire criminal administration. 

Like I always say, if they weren’t all incompetent, none of us would have a chance. But because the prime rule is to do what Donald says, they all march into the blades of the giant fan to lose cases and eventually law licenses.

I’m sure there was a good podcast on this, but I don’t know how to find it with the volume of YouTube and another videos and podcast that pop up every day click on the link to the 207 page motion to dismiss the indictment and exhibits, because it is a shit pie thrown in the face of Trump that is fresher and more odious than anything I’ve seen recently.

When Bondy and Hannigan were ordered by a federal judge to produce any evidence of adversarial prosecution against James, team Trump fired a person who had gathered a bunch of it, and then file a motion saying ‘notice we aren’t gonna give it to you judge’

For you non-lawyers and non-federal practitioners, that’s not really a good idea to tell a federal judge.  I have not seen a ”fuck your order” response that has proved successful so far.

Because Team Bondi said that there was no evidence of adversarial prosecution, and so no need to follow federal court orders, James filed this motion, setting forth why they should dismiss the indictment.  

Interestingly, and rather humorously, James points out that by Bondi saying they weren’t gonna turn it over - they had just admitted the existence of requested discovery supporting that the prosecution was adversarial. 

I think this is a very important matter that more people should know about. Probably only the Surly lawyer Cabal will take a look, but it is definitely worth looking at.

The filing has huge amounts of exhibits attached, so it is worth looking at just to see what James easily collected to show what Trump was doing.    In a perfect world, I’d love to see the court allow James attorneys to first depose Trump and Bondy and Hannigan.   I seriously doubt that could ever happen, but I would still love to see that on the nightly news with Trump begging the Supreme Court to save him from having to testify, as everyone talks about all the exhibits in that filing.

 

Quote

 

New York Attorney General Letitia James said Friday her criminal case should be thrown out because it’s the product of President Donald Trump’s yearslong personal vendetta against her.

Lawyers for James filed a motion to dismiss the two-count indictmentrelated to a 2020 mortgage, saying it is both a vindictive and selective prosecution.
