Which will be most psychologically damaging to he who must not be obeyed -

being convicted of 34 felonies or being referred to many times over by his own attorney during her cross examination of a prosecution witness as an orange turd?

A conviction can be appealed but you can’t unhear that testimony.

Judge Cannon expands hearing on Trump's request to declare special counsel's appointment invalid

Source: CNN

Judge Aileen Cannon is planning on holding a sprawling hearing on Donald Trump’s request to declare Jack Smith’s appointment as special counsel invalid, signaling the judge could be more willing than any other trial judge to veto the special prosecutor’s authority.

The planned hearing also adds a new, unusual twist in the federal criminal national security case against the former president: Cannon on Tuesday said that a variety of political partisans and constitutional scholars not otherwise involved with the case can join in the oral arguments on June 21.

It’s an extraordinary elevation of arguments in a criminal case first filed a year ago this week that likely won’t see trial until next year, if at all.

Similar challenges from Trump and other high-level targets of special counsel probes have flopped from coast to coast in recent years: Hunter Biden’s attorney didn’t get anywhere with judges in Los Angeles and Delaware; Paul Manafort’s arguments fell flat when the former Trump campaign chairman challenged special counsel Robert Mueller’s authority; and Andrew Miller, a former associate of Roger Stone, also lost his challenge to Mueller’s authority.

Exactly how was the trial rigged?

This is the question that DEMANDS an answer from ANYONE making this claim. HOW was it rigged and how do you KNOW this. Be precise and no EXCUSES.

Let NO ONE who says this off the hook. We want answers NOW!!!!!

I started watching The Insider

last night, and will finish it tonight, about a whistleblower who implicated “big tobacco” in a 60 Minutes interview in 1996. The producer of the program, Lowell Bergman, went on to become an investigative journalist of considerable note. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lowell_Bergman

I wish he would look into the deaths of the two Boeing whistle blowers who each died shortly before they were scheduled to testify against Boeing in different lawsuits.
