This was an awfully big risk to take. Wasn’t removing the documents from the White House the initial crime? That took place in DC, that’s where the case should be tried. Too late, though; looks like the fix is in and the American people lose again.

As I understand it.. He had to file where the crime was uncovered.. that was Florida Peacetrain Jun 2023 #2

Not me. But I read the same thing. Refusal to return was in Florida. Searched there Bernardo de La Paz Jun 2023 #6

But I always thought you tried the crime where it was commited--DC debm55 Jun 2023 #105

None of the crimes alleged in the indictment occurred in DC. onenote Jun 2023 #109

Thank you. I see my mistake. And the indictment (read it this afternoon) was more centered on debm55 Jun 2023 #113

Much of the Grand Jury work was done in DC. Might as well of pissed in the wind bringing it to her dem4decades Jun 2023 #8

There's more than 1 road here. It's only the first few days of Tetrachloride Jun 2023 #3

Where Are You Getting... ProfessorGAC Jun 2023 #4

You have to get through the preliminaries, how much time do you have? dem4decades Jun 2023 #9

She's going to be the trial judge unless she recuses herself Marius25 Jun 2023 #10

The Circuit Can Order Her To Recuse ProfessorGAC Jun 2023 #36

She's not going to be the judge relayerbob Jun 2023 #5

She already is. Confirmed by the Clerk of the Court Marius25 Jun 2023 #12

Who is Hugo Lowell? SCantiGOP Jun 2023 #17

Justice reporter for the Guardian Marius25 Jun 2023 #26

She is to oversee the case..a lot different than trying the case! PortTack Jun 2023 #27

Overseeing the case refers to the trial Marius25 Jun 2023 #29

Here's what is left out of that tweet..and has been mentioned many many times PortTack Jun 2023 #38

You quoted an article from yesterday. Marius25 Jun 2023 #59

Trashing PortTack Jun 2023 #63

I agree Dave says Jun 2023 #7

I wouldn't count Jack Smith out so soon in the process calguy Jun 2023 #19

Sounds like good advice Dave says Jun 2023 #40

Post removed Post removed Jun 2023 #23

Exactly..and if we look at what she did with all the special master nonsense, made ZERO difference PortTack Jun 2023 #30

This calguy Jun 2023 #64

Got it Dave says Jun 2023 #67

Jack Smith was correct................. Lovie777 Jun 2023 #11

And he's going to lose the case with Cannon as the Judge Marius25 Jun 2023 #14

Post removed Post removed Jun 2023 #24

Her being the Judge is a near guarantee he will get away with this Marius25 Jun 2023 #28

You've made your point. It's just as insulting to go on as if you have some insight, telling those PortTack Jun 2023 #32

I literally wrote a whole thread here saying we should be prepared for her to be the judge Marius25 Jun 2023 #41

If you don't believe ppl like Joyce Vance, Glen Kurscher, Neil Katyal who have law degrees PortTack Jun 2023 #54

Lawrence Tribe said he's very worried about her as a judge Marius25 Jun 2023 #57

I quit! PortTack Jun 2023 #58

Why listen to people with law degrees... calguy Jun 2023 #61

Oh yeah..right! PortTack Jun 2023 #66

I disagree. There were serious problems with any venue he might have chosen. Scrivener7 Jun 2023 #39

No, Jack Smith Kows what he's Doing Cha Jun 2023 #13

On a similar note as the OP Capt. Sully did a crappy job landing that plane. grantcart Jun 2023 #51

Those guys at Iwo Jima did a sloppy job. yardwork Jun 2023 #93

THIS!!☝️ onetexan Jun 2023 #87

Aloha onetexan.. Cha Jun 2023 #99

Maybe, but my money is on Jack. Joinfortmill Jun 2023 #15

That opinion ignores the case currently in front of SCOTUS regarding venue, and what SCOTUS RockRaven Jun 2023 #16

Can stop now...how many threads have there been on this? PortTack Jun 2023 #18

I appreciate the sentiment, but Jack Smith has no authority to stop a federal judge Marius25 Jun 2023 #21

So you think she would dismiss the case and then Mr. Smith might maybe appeal..really? PortTack Jun 2023 #34

And what if she refuses to allow key evidence and witness testimony? Marius25 Jun 2023 #35

Maybe you will believe this expert knows what she's talking about PortTack Jun 2023 #45

I know who Joyce Vance is. Watch her every day. Marius25 Jun 2023 #48

I give up! Hang on to your negativity..but JMHO get ready to eat crow PortTack Jun 2023 #53

Just being realistic. I don't think the power of positive thinking is going work here Marius25 Jun 2023 #56

So many it is obvious taunting in my opinion. Kingofalldems Jun 2023 #83

I do not think he had a choice. Big Blue Marble Jun 2023 #20

The crime occurred in Washington DC where he had stolen Emile Jun 2023 #50

It more clearly occurred in Palm Beach. Big Blue Marble Jun 2023 #103

The DC circuit, while in many ways very favorable to the prosecution in this case dsc Jun 2023 #22

If he had filed in DC, the case would have been thrown out and the optics would have looked terrible Beautiful Disaster Jun 2023 #33

Whatever happens in Florida, there is the bigger one, the insurrection one, and that is in JohnSJ Jun 2023 #42

I personally think this case is bigger. Marius25 Jun 2023 #43

Last night Andrew Weissman said MOMFUDSKI Jun 2023 #44

Personally I don't think it was a random draw, I think it was intentional Marius25 Jun 2023 #46

What's the obvious agenda? Marius25 Jun 2023 #107

Geez... Spazito Jun 2023 #52

Here's a suggestion: google Did Jack Smith Prosecute War Crimes Successfully Hekate Jun 2023 #62

His skill as a prosecutor has no bearing on how he can deal with a rogue judge Marius25 Jun 2023 #70

Sure Hekate Jun 2023 #73

A clerk is not going to permanently assign the judge in this case, gab13by13 Jun 2023 #65

Good point PortTack Jun 2023 #68

Reinhart was the one that approved the Mar a Lago search Marius25 Jun 2023 #74

The Judges were drawn from a small pool that oversee West Palm Beach Marius25 Jun 2023 #72

No matter what happens one thing's for sure Tom Kitten Jun 2023 #71

I think Florida is correct venue. Florida is where the conduct occurred In It to Win It Jun 2023 #75

Seems very strange, I heard their are 11 judges in the circuit and they just happen to doc03 Jun 2023 #76

Supposedly it was out of a pool of like 4 or 5 assigned to West Palm Beach Marius25 Jun 2023 #77

You can't blame anyone for being pessimistic about it. The last several years doc03 Jun 2023 #80

That's why I'm so upset. The guy gets away with everything Marius25 Jun 2023 #81
