POSTED ON DECEMBER 27, 2023 BY JOHN HINDERAKER IN BIDEN JUSTICE DEPARTMENT, DONALD TRUMP, LAW, TRUMP PROSECUTIONS CHUTZPAH FROM JACK SMITH Special Counsel Democratic Party activist Jack Smith has filed a motion in limine in his Washington, D.C. prosecution of Donald Trump for trying to reverse the apparent result of the 2020 election.
Smith is desperate to get it tried in time to imprison Trump, or at least convict him, before the election.
What is Smith asking the court to do? He wants to bar several categories of evidence that he thinks Trump and his lawyers may try to introduce, including any suggestion that Smith's prosecution is politically motivated.
Smith invokes the danger of "Disinformation": The Court should not permit the defendant to turn the courtroom into a forum in which he propagates irrelevant disinformation, and should reject his attempt to inject politics into this proceeding.
Smith's motion includes references to Trump's "Ceaseless, knowingly false claims of election fraud." But Trump's claim that election fraud took place is not false at all, it is obviously true.
Smith's motion is embedded below, and you can peruse it at your leisure.
Can a guilty verdict possibly be in doubt? Smith apparently thinks so.
