The sh*tshow related to SCOTUS review of 1512c2 continues to escalate. If--and when--SCOTUS overturns DOJ/DC court abuse of obstruction, a full investigation into those responsible--starting with ex chief judge Beryl Howell--is absolutely necessary.

Howell sentenced Matthew Bledsoe to 48 months in prison mostly for his conviction of 1512c2, the only felony count against him.

Howell is one of 15 judges on DC district court to deny motions to dismiss 1512c2. Only one--Carl Nichols--did. His opinion is the source of the SCOTUS review.

A DC jury found Bledsoe guilty in July 2022 after a few hours of deliberation. He has already been in jail for a year.

His attorney asking for release pending his own appeal of 1512c2, which is on hold pending SCOTUS decision.

Howell ordered Bledsoe to wear a monitor and follow curfew orders before and after trial--based on the one felony count. He has no criminal record.

W/o 1512c2 conviction, Bledsoe's attorney claims longest sentence for the 4 misdemeanors would've been 16 months (the longest I've seen for conviction on 4 common J6 misdemeanors is 12 months)

With good behavior, Bledsoe would be out by now.

Political prisoners.

BTW, Matthew Graves @USAO_DC, wanted Bledsoe sentenced to almost 6 years in prison.

Prep for “detox” soup.

Zucchini, bell peppers, carrot, cabbage, celery with the leaves (underrated ingredient)

Sauté veggies except cabbage. Add drained can of chopped tomatoes, green chilies.

Season. Add 4 c stock, bring to boil. Add cabbage, grated onion. Simmer #foodblogger

Of course add any other veggies you like. Mushrooms also work. So does spinach or kale. Throw in beans if you like! (I’m doing a separate bean soup tomorrow)

Make as spicy as you wish. And a dash of red wine vinegar at end of simmering adds acid it might need. Don’t forget kosher salt and pepper!

Low heat, don’t get them crispy. (Btw our area of FLA doesn’t have gas stoves and I cannot tell you how much I detest cooking on electric. This cannot be the future)

NEW: Jack Smith, in likely vain attempt to keep March 4 trial date, filed another pretrial related to what the jury should be allowed to consider. (All pretrial deadlines now on hold)

Smith wants to preclude the jury from hearing evidence about Jan 6 in his Jan 6 case:

Smith wants to prevent jury from learning about presence of undercover agents:

After warnings by govt officials in 2016 and 2020 that malign foreign influences were attempting to interfere in national elections, Smith wants any evidence related to 2020 warnings kept from the jury

Before this Food Blogger starts preparing for tomorrow night's feast, I thought I'd read through Trump's brief filed yesterday before the DC appellate court on the presidential immunity matter. (Sorry for all the confusing law jargon, non-lawyers!)

Opening salvo:

Trump's argument opposing Judge Chutkan's landmark ruling that presidents are subject to criminal prosecution rests on several factors: historical precedent (never happened before); the fact he was impeached on same charges but not convicted which represent double jeopardy; separation of powers authority; immunity protections for the legislative and judicial branches.

No case law exists to support Chutkan, Obama appointee with record of anti-Trump statements in court, unprecedented decision.

Given the unprecedented nature of Chutkan's ruling, it is outrageous that Jack Smith sought a hasty resolution to this question. Comes down to interpretation of Nixon and Clinton era judgements--neither of which compares to what Biden's DOJ is doing to Trump.

NEW: Jack Smith files response to Trump’s reply to DOJ petition for SCOTUS to expedite consideration of presidential immunity matter.

Smith getting closer to admitting Biden regime wants this trial over and done before Election Day

Some disputed my earlier reporting that due to immunity appeal, all pretrial proceedings were on hold.

Jack Smith just admitted as much

Truly outrageous for a largely failed former prosecutor with zero accountability overturned by SCOTUS in a key political prosecution argues Trump should be denied normal due process rights so Smith can try to win another rigged case for Democrats.

Defund then investigate @JudiciaryGOP

Court filings coming fast and furious this week but this is a stunner.

Former AG Edwin Meese asks SCOTUS to deny Jack Smith's petition to expedite appeal of immunity ruling, argues Merrick Garland broke the law by appointing a special counsel w/o statutory authority:

While noting other special counsels have been US Attorneys, Meese's amici curiae petition (meaning doesn't side with either party) underscores how Smith's appointment is unlawful.

Which brings to mind this clip...
