#Goldman on #McIver charges: "I want to know what prosecutor is going to put his or her name on that #indictment ... Alina Habba doesn't care. She's a hack. She doesn't even know how to introduce evidence in court during a trial, and yet she's the #US attorney in New Jersey."

How is what #ElonMusk is doing with #Russia not #espionage and therefore worthy of #indictment and #arrest?
How are the shareholders of his companies not outraged?
It’s time to cut him off and damn the consequences.
Re #Trump’s claims that #JackieSmith’s filing is in violation of the #DOJ’s 60 day before an election policy is BS. The DOJ's "60-day rule" applies to bringing NEW indictments in the days leading up to an #election, it is not relevant to the #ElectionInterference / #ElectionSubversion / #Jan6 / #FakeElectors #criminal #conspiracy case.
This is NOT a new #indictment. It is a #filing in regard to a VERY OLD indictment. Trump was first indicted in this case in Aug 2023.
"I have no intention of pretending that I’m not on team #JackSmith. I, like a lot of former Center-Right folks from the 80s and 90s, have stayed roughly in place, while the center of gravity of the GOP lurched like a drunken imbecile into a space so far right it makes Darth Maul seem like Trostky."
Identifying almost all 77+ redacted players listed in Smith's motion is a trivial exercise, w/ the help of AI. (linked article gives credit to the people who assembled formats.)

It’s rare to simultaneously feel red-hot anger & wistfulness, especially when merely reading a document. But those are exactly the emotions that washed over me when I read the redacted version of #SpecialCounsel #JackSmith’s brief reciting in detail the #evidence against #Trump for attempting to subvert the #2020election.

I can’t believe how useless this redacting process is. Who thought this was a good idea? #Indictment
Federal prosecutors said that #EricAdams “sought & accepted improper valuable benefits” for at least a decade, when he was then the Brooklyn borough president.
Early this morning, federal agents searched the official residence of Adams, hours before Damian Williams, the US attorney for the #SDNY, will discuss the a federal #indictment against the #NYC mayor.
