Imagine defending the Steele Dossier in the year 2024... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"...our project was run in real-time. So, it was real-time reporting produced almost like a live commentary on what was happening.
That is not the way we work if we have a project over the course of several months and then produce a report at the end of that period. The Trump-Russia project wasn't that kind of project..."
I've had two near-death experiences. The first was my own fault; the second was something out of my control.
In attempting to meaningfully process those events beyond the immediately obvious reward of still breathing and draw on them as a resource that helps drive me forward into the rest of my life, I did a lot of things.
I prayed, journaled, talked to many friends and family about the experiences, read Scripture, considered how differently things could have so easily gone, and of course replayed the memories of those events in my head countless times.
"Although the defendant was the incumbent President during the charged conspiracies, his scheme was fundamentally a private one. Working with a team of private co-conspirators, the defendant acted as a candidate when he pursued multiple criminal means to disrupt, through fraud and deceit, the government function by which votes are collected and counted—a function in which the defendant, as President, had no official role...
This motion provides a comprehensive account of the defendant’s private criminal conduct; sets forth the legal framework created by [SCOTUS Presidential Immunity Opinion] for resolving immunity claims; applies that framework to establish that none of the defendant’s charged conduct is immunized because it either was unofficial or any presumptive immunity is rebutted; and requests the relief the Government seeks, which is, at bottom, this: that the Court determine that the defendant must stand trial for his private crimes as would any other citizen."
4 parts to this thing.
Section I-Preview of the case Gov't intends to prove at trial.
Section II-Overview of legal principles governing claims of presidential immunity.
Section III-Applies above legal principles to the conduct of President Trump and "establishes that nothing the Government intends to present to the jury is protected by presidential immunity."
Section IV-Relief sought by Gov't i.e. Trump is not immune from prosecution and case proceeds to trial.
Prosecutors ask Judge Cannon to slow the Routh case down and designate it as a "complex case" due to the "voluminous discovery" and the "still ongoing" status of the investigation. Defense counsel does not object.
Trump is golfing at Trump International in West Palm Beach; he is on the 5th hole.
A USSS agent is in a golf cart and conducting a security sweep ahead of Trump going on to the 6th hole.
The agent rode drove the golf cart along the fence line and at ~1:30pm "the Agent spotted the partially obscured face of a man in the brush along the fence line. The man was later identified as Ryan Wesley Routh (“ROUTH”). ROUTH’s position was directly in line with the 6th hole.
The Agent then observed a long black object protruding through the fence and realized the object was the barrel of a rifle aimed directly at him. The Agent jumped out of the golf cart, drew his weapon, and began backing away. The Agent saw the rifle barrel move, and the Agent fired at ROUTH."
The agent got out of the golf cart, drew his weapon, the rifle moved, and the agent fired.
The agent took cover behind a tree, reloaded, radioed in "shots fired" and Trump was removed from the golf course.
Routh fled.
What is underlined in red goes to prove that Routh was there to assassinate President Trump.
