I was a fed'l l prosecutor for 20+ yrs. & did quite a few ATF cases, esp early on. I was also a supervisor for about 5 yrs, so I knew of all cases in our office. Not only have I never seen this statute charged, I never even HEARD of it until recently relative to Hunter Biden. 🙄 https://t.co/3tmyRUKgD5

BREAKING: if you are wondering why Judge Cannon issued on 8/7, without the defense requesting it, an Order directing the government why it was using a non-FLA grand jury, here is an answer: on 8/6 former Trump lawyer was on Fox raising that entirely bogus issue.

One of my friends was there a month ago, and she said the American media doesn’t come close to showing how united the country is against Netanyahu’s power grab:

#Breaking: 6,000 Israeli doctors have announced they will not report to work if the government fails to respect Supreme Court rulings. "This is just the beginning. Health exists only in a democracy. Israel will be a liberal democracy, or it won't be." https://t.co/VyGGS0iIo0

NEW: Donald Trump's promise to "immediately" seek Judge Chutkan's recusal appears at odds with his attorney, who says "We haven’t made a final decision on that issue."

It's the latest installment in Trump's role as 'mercurial/unmanageable legal client.'https://t.co/2ruNGXo53E

Judge Chutkan is not taking any shit from Big Mango:

That Truth Social post is real. A day after being in court, Trump is issuing threats. Don't treat this as normal or just his usual performance art. pic.twitter.com/vwXTsC5btP

The special counsel just alerted the court to Trump's threat-tweet in a motion asking the court for a protective order so it can begin providing discovery. There would be serious consequences for Trump if he violates the order. If he keeps it up, he's got to end up in jail. pic.twitter.com/2e9FlrZEog

New: Magistrate judge sets Aug. 28, 2023 as the first hearing date for Trump before US district court judge Tanya Chutkan (the latest of the three options given)

JUST LEFT the courtroom where Trump was arraigned. The most interesting part? Several of the federal judges of the district court filled the back row — including Chief Judge James Boasberg, Amy Berman Jackson and Randy Moss.
