Via Kyle Cheney: 1/.. (oops, I’m posting these in reverse chronological order)
👀 #JackSmith argues that even if the #SCOTUS sharply narrows the obstruction statute in Fischer, #Trump's two obstruction counts are still valid because it would apply to the "creation" of false documents (a.k.a. elector certificates. #legal
Smith files his opening brief at the Supreme Court re: presidential immunity. The crux: Criminal law includes a million safeguards and due process protections that render Trump's claims about politically motivated prosecutions meritless.
I really hope the justices have enough self respect to listen to Smith's arguments on their merits and don't just sell out to Trump like many fear they will.
@GottaLaff I recall how SCOTUS dissents can affect future law and rulings. Smith's multiple filings, now part of the record, may have the same effect on dissents and future law. And the Smith filings may put a big arse spotlight on the corruption in SCOTUS. if they were to rule in a corrupt manner.
