Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart is the judge who authorized the fraudulent search warrant used by the DOJ and FBI in the Mar-a-Lago raid against President Trump in August of last year. Today, Judge Reinhart accepted the position of Special Counsel Jack Smith and puts restrictions on President Trump’s ability to defend himself.
Judge Reinhart has approved the motion filed by Special Counsel Jack Smith to restrict President Trump’s access to the materials the DOJ claims to use against him and block the ability of President Trump to state publicly his defense against the evidence. The star chamber of the DOJ Lawfare operation is continuing unabated.
(Via ABC NEWS) – A federal judge on Monday approved a protective order sought by special counsel Jack Smith to keep former President Donald Trump from disclosing sensitive information in his classified documents case.
Smith sought the order to ensure that neither Trump nor codefendant Walt Nauta, Trump’s presidential valet, disclose sensitive information obtained during the discovery process, where prosecutors will show the defense what evidence it has amassed during their investigation into Trump’s handling of classified documents since leaving office.

“The Discovery Materials, along with any information derived therefrom, shall not be disclosed to the public or the news media, or disseminated on any news or social media platform, without prior notice to and consent of the United States or approval of the Court,” Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart said in the order.
“Defendants shall only have access to Discovery Materials under the direct supervision of Defense Counsel or a member of Defense Counsel’s staff. Defendants shall not retain copies of Discovery Material,” the ruling said.
“The materials also include information pertaining to ongoing investigations, the disclosure of which could compromise those investigations and identify uncharged individuals,” their Friday filing said.
Furthermore, the protective order limits Trump’s access to the material, stating that he can only view the discovery materials under the direct supervision of his defense counsel or a member of the counsel’s staff. As demanded by the Special Counsel, Trump is not allowed to retain copies of the discovery material.
The order applies to both Trump and his co-defendant, Walt Nauta, and prohibits them from disseminating any evidence provided to their lawyers during the discovery process. Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart emphasized that the discovery materials, along with any derived information, should not be made public or shared on news or social media platforms without prior consent from the United States or approval from the court.
The DOJ wants to limit public knowledge of the material evidence, not because it would harm national security – but rather because the nature of the evidence itself would highlight to the nation how fraudulent the targeting is. This is the guaranteed DOJ motive, that’s why everything is under seal and even the media will not talk about how they are gaining their leak knowledge. This is LAWFARE narrative engineering at its apex deployment. (more)
Hopefully everyone can see now why I created so much context for the Fourth Branch of Government. The DOJ is essentially arguing that some unknown administrative state has a superior position to the executive branch of government.
The US DOJ are affirming a belief in the omnipotent Fourth Branch of Government that Barack Obama created.



So now what? Truly some Judge can come out and say the opposite, No?
Is Reinhart a multiple visitor to Epstein’s Island of Girl Sex Slaves?
It certainly is very likely he is, Frankie! BASTARD (THE JUDGE, NOT YOU 🙂
Looks like he preferred the OTHER side of the Island, where the boys were…
Winner !….Winner!….Chicken Dinner.
Connie Francis is angry her song has been abused by the rainbow people.
You have a point about Reinhart. All Dems are scum.
Or boy
Possibly a dual citizen of somewhere as well.
LawFare needs a corrupt judicial system to exact its will. Look at the judge in the photo; it makes the point.
LawFare’s Kafka-like imposition on Donald Trump, his attorneys, and our state of mind is its most chilling effect. It seeks to induce fear. It wants to shut all of us up. It intends to weaken our spirit, our resolve to resist.
It exhausts its victims, as it did Kafka’s character Joseph K. It threatens us with business and financial ruin, disbarment, social cancellation/humiliation, accusation, arrest, indictment, and Trial.
That would be President Trump, not Donald Trump.
Sheesh.
Nice one.
Well stated John. Well. Stated.
Kafkaesque, to the nth degree!
Relying on precedent creation by corrupt judges, attorneys.
Ultimately, successful prosecution will allow for the entire destruction of all without “ Trump like” means of defense. To overcome his financial advantage, lawfare has already succeeded in limiting his potential for competent attorneys, and attorney client privilege has already been broken down.
The application against traditional targets will be fully devastating. There will be no capable or competent recourse.
Supreme intervention “could” damage the precedent being established, however, given their “standing” determination, I am un-persuaded. Their allegiance does not appear to be favorable to their calling(s)/position(s).
Honestly, were the Supreme Court to intervening in terms of an overturn of favorable established leftist precedence set here, I’m fully confident they would be immediately expanded to correct the situation. Permanent leftist supermajority would be swift & unapologetic.
This is the America of the 2000’s.
An unalterable course, set in stone November 4, 2008.
Possible by the Bush administration & the United States Congress October 26, 2001
You are right. Kavanaugh was definitely rattled by the Schumer threat on the steps of the SCOTUS. Barrett folded even before confirmation.
The current court has only one possibly two Constitutionalists in its midst. That is an ominous fact. Could the Court do the right thing? Yes. Will they do the right thing? Doubtful for reasons of self-preservation. Rest assured that if they do, the Biden Mafia will pack the court on a 51-49 vote adding likely 6 justices that make Jackson look like an intelligent Constitutionalist!! This will ensure the death of the United States of America and introduce a new Eastern bloc for China. The ONLY upside here will be the fight between Xi and Soros for control!!
At the same time, more and more Americans are realizing that it is primarily a presecution or series of prosecutions designed to keep President Trump from being able to campaign and remain in touch with HIS PEOPLE (AKA Americans) via rallies. With each prosecution or threat of another bogus charge or series of bogus charges. the American voters are coming to realize that this is purely and simply a political PERsecution not even a political PROsecution. In anything resembling a free and fair election, Donald Trump returns to his rightful Presidency and Joe Biden can pack his diaper pail and return to the ice cream shops of Rehoboth Beach, diaper tail tucked between his legs and Jill can continue her life’s search for the Curtain Dress Shops she loves!
As for the corrupt, evil, totalitarians in the Department of Injustice, may they all rot in H-E-double hockey sticks. The fiery furnaces will not be enough and only the most evil and degenerate pedophiles left on Earth will mourn their demise. With them in the next wave will be the corrupt politicians and government officials who live and work in the cesspools of DC only to serve their own interests. The world needs a sanitizing, a deep cleansing from all of the self-serving, dishonest, immoral, despicable buffoons who may have gone to DC with good intentions (mostly not) but fell prey to the lure of money in return for selling out their constituencies.
The Soros’s of the world and their flying monkeys, doing his bidding like he was the Wicked Witch of the West, believe themselves to be winning. They don’t know God. They don’t want to know God. Their goal is to turn all the people of the world into unGodly people. In the end, he and they will fail.
Trump is ordered not to talk about the actual evidence under this communist ruling but he can definitely highlight and talk about how they are covering it up and not allowing him to discuss it in public as this article points out. He can use that to his advantage and point out how the corrupt communists can illegally leak evidence but he can’t see it or talk about it while CNN, NYT, WAPO and MSNBC will have no restrictions with the intentionally leaked hit pieces.
Pakistani mystery man
George Webb #1 trello boards…Task Force
His people should leak stuff just like the DOJ does. Trump would know nothing about the leaks.
What he should do is to place some moles inside some of these corrupt media establishments. Let them do some counter leaking.
Even with this hoax ruling by Reinhart, the 4th Branch Star Chamber is incomplete w/o a hoax judge in D.C. The DOJ needs a complete hoax of a court to be successful.
America is a full blown banana republic.
It sure does make you proud and thankful that you served and sacrificed so much for this country, the Constitution and the government of this great nation in days past; only to later see these rat-bastards in Washington DC turn it into something so vile and demonic you regret every day you gave them.
Bruce needs to be outed…”the horror”…
I’m sorry Grandpa.
Ditto!
Do not comply.
It is step one of every possible solution on the horizon.
You’re right. If everyone in this country just did what is right, none of this could happen. It’s all down to personal choices.
If no one would: work at the corrupt agency, cover up what their dirty colleagues are doing, stand down with violence in the street… if no one would teach what they know is immoral, pay taxes to a Witmer or Hopkins rather than move, or buy the cheaper item that’s made with slave labor in China…
If no one would buy the trendy “smart” devices/appliances even though it makes surveillance on us ALL much easier; if we would teach our kids to use maps, calculate, and spell rather than relying on technology for everything, and stop being a compliant geo-locator for the feds..
If we all would jump in to subdue the crazy on the subway, call 9-11 instead of using the phone to take pictures of it, and and refuse to prosecute the good guy, declaring that their firm believes in justice, not lawfare… if we would turn down the “good job” at the news agency that spreads lies, find a new job rather than take the shot, and refuse to go to a doctor who asks if patients if they are “vaccinated” or have guns at home….if we’d find a new interest when sports becomes politics.
No “activism” needed…just the willingness to do the right thing in our personal/professional lives would mean that what we’re all unwillingly taking part in right now — the decline and fall of America– would not be possible.
He wont comply and they wont do shit..My guess
How can a federally declared candidate for the presidency have his speech curtailed? How can that even be legal?!
the legal system has steps and timeframes in between each one.
whomever knows the system and doesnt care if they are found out abusing, can use the law with very little worry of anyone ever slowing them down dragggin us through the mud
It’s not legal. Look at the trend of judges these issues land in front, all the key players are puppets and owned by the corporate elitists. If they can do this to PDJT, just think what they can do to us.
How do you fight this fairly. You don’t.
There is NO legal system here. Hasn’t been since the installation of the communist regime
Donald J Trump must defy that illegal order. The case itself is illegal. By complying with that illegal censorship order he fails ordinary Americans who are being censored. We must all use our voice when it is illegally being silences. We must not obey. And his civil disobedience is called for in this moment. As an example to all of us that WE WILL NOT BE SILENCED. Not by this tyranny. No matter what.
Dare the SOB’s to arrest him. Dare them. They are coming for him, and us, no matter what. They intend to deprive him of his defense, stack the jury, the judge is no better than Coney Barrett or Kavanaugh, other Trump appointees, who refused to give election fraud appeals hearings. Be under no illusion about that, he will not get a more fair trial than he got in NY, or J8 defendants are getting in DC.
If Trump complies it is will be the same as going out on bended knee, rather than standing tall. Please, dear President Donald J Trump, stand up for your rights, your First Amendment right to free speech and defy this pissant magistrate or even the trial judge. Dare Them. Look hem in the eye and Dare Them to throw the President of the United States of America in jail for keeping a personal book, that a librarian claims is the library’s. We, The People, have your back.
If I were Trump, I would hire a lawyer, perhaps Dershowitz or Turley, not to represent me, but to opine about these matters.. Their opinion.
Can’t trust Turley.
Blows hot & cold. Was worse in past than now. But who knows?
So what are Trump’s lawyers going to do about limiting their access to information necessary for their defense? How can this ruling stand? Are they going to appeal this to a higher court?
TRUMP’s…LAWYERS…DID…NOT…APPEAL
Did I get it wrong? I thought it allowed for the most of usual access but with brand-new prohibitions just for PDT–
— no disclosing of any of this…which means not letting the public know about the case OR about what other rights are being curtailed in the courtroom, not even allowing PDT to be alone with the materials, but only with attorneys present, like what Wray was offering the House Weaponization Committee — just the same, down to not being able to copy anything– maybe the judge will prohibit PDT and legal staff from taking in writing materials. like Wray tried to.
PDT’s own attorneys can be with him when he examines materials, thankfully –would not put it past these people to say he and his attorneys are not even allowed to see the materials at all — or have them presented directly from the prosecution to the judge only, without even PDT and his own attorneys being allowed to see what they are defending against!
And of course, so important, the prosecution will leak, as always, THEIR side of the story, THEIR “truth,” which will be discussed casually on screens as if that IS the truth (“Well, as we know from the documents, this-and-this happened, which means that…” which could and no doubt will be complete lies to further the cause and “fool the rubes” — in this case meaning everybody non-politically-connected …
While no one, not Trump himself and not surrogates or even just-the-facts independent media will be telling the REAL truth, and it won’t even be history rewritten — it’ll be “reality” created before, during, and after-the-fact, and no one the wiser. It’s a huge disadvantage to one side and from what we’ve heard about the legal expertise surrounding 45-47, I’m sure they’ll use whatever “lawfare” (defensive and maybe offensive) possible in fighting the unfairness of the “decision.”
It’s the only way they can “win”.
The way I understand it, Trump’s Lawyers and Trump with his lawyers, are able to see all the information, BUT, They’re NOT ALLOWED to talk about it to the press, or to the public.
Sundance, a corrupt government is protecting itself and what is our recourse? This government is just as bad as the Soviet Union!!!! You said their plan won’t work but it is working so far!!! I’m so scared.
Thank goodness the Soviet Union no
longer exists — it ended in 1991.
It became the Russian Federation and
became a Parliamentary Democracy.
And if our politicians do not stand
up and begin fighting..our Republic
will no longer exist as we once knew
it.
Did you mean the old Soviet Union? This is picky, but Russia is not the Soviet Union and I would say Ukraine is more corrupt than even Russia, at this point. Again, making a comment on a subjective opinion of mine. I did get your drift and I agree with you.
USA is more corrupt then both…
Pokey- You are not being picky.
A lot of people are still
unaware that the Soviet Union
no longer exists.
And our politicians appear to
have had the mentality that the
Cold War was still happening
when they started this mess
in Ukraine.
No War
Trump 2024
Don’t be scared, that’s their illegal psychological operations against us Americans…they are trying to make you scared.
I ain’t scared. God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, of love and a sound mind 2 Tim. 1:3
Praise the Lord!
AMEN TO THAT!!! Remember, Didn’t Judge Cannon, promise Trump what he requested!
This will not go to trial until after the 2024 ELECTION?
Am I wrong about this?
Bananas,
you are so right!
They try to control by fear.
Key word is…..try.
This is what a ‘post-Constitutional’ republic looks like, aka banana republic. With the help of the GOPe, Obama won.
Another last sentence: With the help of the Demcommies, the GOPe, the Bureaucratic State, and the Obama Apparatchik operating behind the curtain. We can still draw the curtain and expose these vermin.
You forgot also “with the help of a jaded and dumbed down electorate”.
Then the info should “leak”.
I’m sick of these bastards. And everyone knows the 1000 pound gorilla in the room, no matter how much it is ignored
Bastard is a pretty good description of your gorilla. 🙂
Why is this judge still involved, when now the case moved to FL? How many judges x are involved outside of Fl? Is this legally binding?
The name of the judge is familiar not just from Mar a lago raid Sundance, was this also a FISA judge in the Russiagate scandal?
Politico reported that Reinhart donated $2,000 in support of former President Barack Obama — one half to his campaign and the other to the Obama Victory Fund — in addition to $500 for former Florida Republican Gov. Jeb Bush’s 2016 presidential campaign. Reinhart is Deep State.
I don’t recall where, but I read/watched something today that said there are no other pending investigations.
This is simply the well used CON to keep it top secret and underwraps.
So they let them see some of the material and then leak it to the press and who gets blamed.
Isn’t this unconstitutional? Everything the prosecution has should be turned over to the defense. This is corruption on steroids. We have become Stalinesque … if they can’t outright murder Trump, they’ll destroy him with fraudulent charges and a bogus trial.
The order didn’t deny discovery (when both sides give one another what info they have). Order prohibited Trump from seeing evidence without his lawyer(s) or law staff present, prohibited him from talking about evidence in public, prohibited him from having copies of evidence (can take notes only). In other words, the order:
Hung him by his balls
General warrants, onerous rules on discovery, denying Presidential orders in favor of other pResidential orders that are illegal. I can’t wait to see what they come up with next.
So, who is ‘The United Sates’ in this decision and how did they become the United States? I think these bozos all think that Lawfare is now the United States. The stench in the DC Swamp is getting worse by the day. If this isn’t the Communists(Obama and his apparatchik minions) making their play for total control of our Country, I will eat my smelly yard work hat. We have to beat these charlatans to a pulp.
Sounds like SCOTUS time.
The protective order is effectively a ‘gag order‘ that prevents him from discussing the discovery evidence in the court case.
This is Lawfare at work, unabated. Lest we forget who/ what entity is running the show.
October 9, 2021 article:
The DHS, ODNI, DOJ and FBI became the four pillars of this new institution. Atop these pillars is where you will find the Fourth Branch of Government.

That goofy judge was obviously the butt of many jokes in elementary school. Even another wimpy kid likely stole his lunch money.
You just described most liberals. Just take a look at all the dweebs in this administration. A cabal of low self esteem miscreants that have a bone to pick with the normies.
…“Defendants shall only have access to Discovery Materials under the direct supervision of Defense Counsel or a member of Defense Counsel’s staff. Defendants shall not retain copies of Discovery Material,”…
Doesn’t this imply that President Trump and his attorneys cannot have a private conversation while discussing the evidence?
Per the order, the prosecutors will be in the room at the same time as the President and his lawyers : “direct supervision”. His lawyers can’t ask the President questions or discuss strategy in how they will handle a given piece of evidence without the prosecutors knowing what the defense will be.
They can try to do it after viewing but they can’t make copies to refer to. So it’s all going to be on memory. How can the lawyers be allowed to best serve their client with these restrictions? Isn’t this a due process issue?
It seems criminal to me.
It is very-simply time for the former one-person constituent of The Executive Branch to assert the Constitutional powers that have already been confirmed in at least three Supreme Court decisions, such as Navy v. Eagan.
“This Constitutional Branch, in the exercise of his powers, enjoys the separation of powers principle. He very simply is not subject to interference by any other Branch, except in the narrow case of [successful …] impeachment by the Legislature. And, he is certainly(!) not subject to judgment by any of his employees!
The Judicial Branch quite literally has no power to bring criminal charges against any other Branch in the exercise of its appointed, separated, powers.
Amen, amen. Speak the truth.
“The power of decision in the President left no object for internal dissension, and external intrigue was stifled in embryo by the knowledge which incendiaries possessed, that no division they could foment would change the course of the executive power.”
–Thomas Jefferson to A. L. C. Destutt de Tracy, 1811
“his employees!”
The French experimented with an executive plurality.
“The preference of a plural over a singular executive will probably not be assented to here.”
–Thomas Jefferson to A. L. C. Destutt de Tracy, 1811
“Responsibility weighs with its heaviest force on a single head.”
–Thomas Jefferson to Samuel Kercheval, 1816
“We have, I think, fallen on the happiest of all modes of constituting the Executive, that of easing and aiding our President by permitting him to choose Secretaries of State, of Finance, of War and of the Navy, with whom he may advise, either separately or all together, and remedy their divisions by adopting or controlling their opinions at his discretion;
“this saves the nation from the evils of a divided will and secures to it a steady march in the systematic course which the President may have adopted for that of his administration.”
–Thomas Jefferson to A. Coray, 1823
Where is the admonition preventing prosecution leaks (the most prevalent kind)?
Blatant corruption in full view. The real President Trump, exposing them all.
Read that President Trump’s attorneys did not file a motion to oppose the special counsel’s restrictive motion; if so, it’s a foregone conclusion that the restrictive motion would be approved.
And yet the Prosecutors can leak anything they like. Truth and Justice the American way.
You know this chump is bent, and probably trying to keep the Establishment’s golden goose laying some very fraudulent eggs.
Another corrupt crooked judge who is part and parcel to the conspiracy against President Trump.
Can this ruling be appealed to a higher court?
I have little faith in DPJTR legal team – when has his defense been successful in any aspect of the current charges/indictments/impeachments – is he going to allow this Lawfare cabal to put him in jail? Robert Barnes stated that Trunmp tries to cheap it out and relies to much on the white shoe lawyers who don’t knoiw how ro tackle thses demons.
Robert Barnes is an RFK Jr toady. RFK Jr loathes President Trump and displays TDS blaming Trump throughout his book. Typical far leftwing. RFK also lies and says that Republicans steal elections! Republicans! His wife is a big Hollywood mogul big on climate change, abortion, etc. etc. Sure, the vaccines for Covid were unhelpful & harmful. But are we a vaccine-obsessed people or brave, free Americans who are capable of critical thinking on all issues? I was disgusted when Barnes, who can be charming, forsook Trump for RFK!
Will American Patriots Learn a Thing or Two about how Federal Prosecution Actually Work?
The burden is on the government to establish President Trump’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. He and his (departed) legal counsels offered an array of factual claims and arguments in the court of public opinion, but they never came together to form a cogent and persuasive account of what transpired that might actually help him in court.
“Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart is the judge who authorized the fraudulent search warrant used by the DOJ and FBI in the Mar-a-Lago raid against President Trump in August of last year. “
Until now, the authorization of the search warrant was unopposed in court. Maybe President’s legal counsel will include this matter in filing a motion to dismiss this case due to prosecutorial misconduct.
Rumors have it that their major goal is to slow-walk the process that a potential trial could not start before after 11/24. One (among MANY others) will be
to unseal Judge Beryl Howell’s order obliterating #45 attorney-client privilege with his lawyer Eric Corcoran (“crime-fraud” attorney-client privilege exception)
President’s privileged conversations with his lawyer about the boxes of documents stored at Mar-a-Lago was used to charge Trump with
conspiracy to obstruct (count 32), withholding a document or record (count 33), corruptly concealing a document or record (count 34) and false statements (count 37).”Today, Judge Reinhart accepted the position of Special Counsel Jack Smith and puts restrictions on President Trump’s ability to defend himself.”
Unopposed court motion.
Would be nice if the so called Republicans would start an investigation into Bidens having boxes of classified info in his garage and trunk of his car. He was not President and had no right to have them.
So where are the restrictions on the DOJ limiting its ability to discuss evidence and especially prohibiting it from leaking to the press to try to influence the jury and public opinion?
One has to understand how the media tilts the narrative..and they will continue to do so, for this trial in particular. Certainly, this protective order agreed BY BOTH parties, applies equally to both parties.
Skippy Reinhart. I bet he only like DOUBLE STUFF Oreos. Looks like he likes getting double-stuffed from Hussein and Big Mike….
Judge must be getting his rocks off pushing around an ex President.
Lawrenty Beria.
Only for those who are interested in facts!
Thank you P.O.!
You are most welcome!
Whenever courts publish decisions, everyone should read also motions BEFORE making a public statement. This helps immensely to hit the nail on the head and not to discharge baseless insinuations!
And our old friend Rudy Contreras is ruling on Jan 6 cases:
A 39-year-old Maine man accused of attacking a group of police officers has been convicted of 11 charges in the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol building.
U.S. District Judge Rudolph Contreras issued his verdict Tuesday in the bench trial of Kyle Fitzsimons, finding him guilty of seven felonies and four misdemeanors.

I don’t see how this can possibly be legal. It’s definitely not fair. May God these minions of Satan accountable for what they are doing to innocent people!
If and when it goes to Jury only people with high enough clearance will be able to view the espionage documents. That means no one will be able to see them. Trust me, I’m from the Government, I’m here to help.
Isn’t Cannon in charge of this case? How can this judge be making rulings on another judges case.
Of course! Biden’s Non Justice Dept. is all either Marxist or bought and paid for the old fashion way. Through crime and corruption. There can be no such thing as an “honest” trial, especially for Donald J. Trump! The Marxist left hasn’t treated anything they have dealt with honestly, since Obama came into power. We are being run by remnants of the Weather Underground and the Black Panthers, plus all their new Marxist hires.
How does this work? Does the jury have security clearances?
Trump will deify these evil bastards ..He has nothing to lose….
Rule 72(a) of the Federal Rules of Procedure state that a when a pretrial matter is referred to a magistrate judge to hear and decide, the magistrate judge must promptly issue a written order stating the decision, and the party to whom directed may serve and file objections to the order within 14 days after being served with a copy. see e.g. Rule 72. Magistrate Judges: Pretrial Order | Federal Rules of Civil Procedure | US Law | LII / Legal Information Institute (cornell.edu)
So, I sure hope President Trump’s lawyers are filing objections to Magistrate Reinhart’s order!
Thanks FRB! Totally agree.
Why is this judge still involved? I thought it is now in FL.
BREAKING: Omnibus Order of Judge Cannon
7/24/23: Deadline for all pre-trial motions and motions in limine
8/8/23: Calendar Call
8/14/23, or as soon thereafter the case may be called
P.O., from 7/16/23 when the DOJ filed the motion for protective order to 7/30/23 is 14 days when the defense can object to this motion.
By ordering 7/24/23 as the deadline for all pre-trial motions, has Judge Cannon limited this period to a week or are objections excluded from this order?
[1] Trump’s Documents Trial Could Be Delayed Until After 2024 Election (breitbart.com)
Thanks again PO!
Unfortunate opportunity lost or perhaps plays into overall delay strategy until after 11/24. Managing expectations.Key next milestone meeting the 7/24/23 deadline for pre-trial motions and motions in limine- particularly interested if any of the motions address the legality of how some of the prosecution’s “evidence” was obtained as well as more info on overall strategy approach as you stated.
Very much appreciate your thoughtful parsing through this information!
Now it is what it is, and the answer to the legitimate question of how a defense attorney can be surprised by the nature of the indictment when everything is listed in the judge approved search warrant is something for the history books.
“if any of the motions address the legality of how some of the prosecution’s “evidence” was obtained”
If slaw-walking is the goal: Mighty weapon!
“more info on overall strategy approach”
seen on the overall picture of the filing.
Calendar Call hearings on 8/8/23 (hold in a Fort Pierce, FL courtroom which is nearer to Mar-a-Lago than Miami) will show us where and when this journey will go. Problem: At end of season, there are most likely four trips on the calendar (not counting “other” court matters), which “we had never seen before”:
So very helpful as usual P.O.!
I am creating a word document of your comments so I can refer back to them going forward.
One last question if I may- When I look up the motions, can I use the 4 State/Federal items you listed as the search criteria or are there more specific links that I first need to access?
Thanks so much!
My very best to you and yours.
Despicable individual right there. Drinks rot gut whiskey too.
This reminds me somewhat of the Bush era renditions, when the government could limit your right to see the evidence against you, and even limited your attorney’s access.
The FBI was pulling similar maneuvers in order to create cases against ‘terrorists’.
It’s funny, liberals used to care about these abuses of power back then, sometimes.
Most people were so trained to hate all Muslims as terrorists, they didn’t care.
Now we see the same tactics being used under the same cover (national security), and it is so baked in that President Trump is some kind of threat, in people’s minds, they will side with the judges and the FBi because they are the ones “keeping us safe”.
We should have seen this coming.
