Hope T**** gets his Christmas Present early. If you run into any MAGAts who are angry about the Indicated, show them this, he WANTS it. Just like Mike Lindell DEMANDED Smartmatic and Dominion sue him

On Friday, he joked at a Republican dinner in Montgomery, Alabama, that a fourth indictment could help him electorally. Trump said: "Any time they file an indictment, we go way up in the polls. "We need one more indictment to close out this election. One more indictment and this election is closed out. Nobody has even a chance."

Fulton County insiders expect former President Donald Trump to be indicted this week in Georgia
Normally someone goes to Fulton County Jail after an arrest, but Cohen believes that's unlikely for the former president.

ATLANTA — Many people in Fulton County are preparing for Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis to announce an indictment against former U.S. President Donald Trump for allegedly trying to overturn the results of the 2020 Presidential Election in Georgia. This would be Trump's fourth indictment this year. An Atlanta-area lawyer tells 11Alive he believes Willis could indict Trump this coming week. “I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have." That infamous phone call between the then president and Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger happened on January 2, 2021. Almost three years later, bright barriers surround the perimeter of the Fulton County Courthouse in preparation for Trump's possible indictment for election interference in Georgia. “We've never had this happen before, so no one quite knows what's going to happen," attorney Darryl Cohen said.
Cohen is a former Fulton County assistant district attorney and said while there's a lot we don't know, there's certain things that are likely to happen. “There are going to be Trump supporters that love him. There’s going to be Trump haters that hate him, and we don't know if they're going to be together or if they're going to clash," Cohen said. "We don't know how many people are going to turn out, so this could all be the beginning of a story that we cannot begin to understand until it unravels.” Normally someone goes to Fulton County Jail after an arrest, but Cohen believes that's unlikely for the former president. “I think that he will be mug shot and fingerprinted at the Fulton County Courthouse. We have a serious, really serious security problem," Cohen said.
Cohen said if Willis announced an indictment against Trump, it would be assigned to a Fulton County superior judge. “There will be several assistant district attorneys that'll be working on this case from the beginning after the indictment, until the conclusion of whether it's concluded in a trial, a verdict of guilty or not guilty, a mistrial, whatever it is," Cohen said. Trump Attorney John Lauro spoke NBC's "Meet the Press" on Sunday and detailed what would be a likely defense. “Under the First Amendment, he had a right to petition governments around the country, state governments, based on his grievances that election irregularities had occurred," Lauro said. “Well said by his lawyers. I don't believe that's accurate," Cohen said.
Congressman Jamie Raskin served on the January 6th Committee and worked for 25 years as a Constitutional law professor. He also joined moderator Chuck Todd on "Meet the Press." “His lawyers up there saying, oh, that's just a matter of him expressing his First Amendment rights, that's deranged. That is a deranged argument," Raskin (D-Md.) said. “This is a legal game that's about to unfold to all of us, not only in Fulton County, but in the State of Georgia and in the United States and actually internationally as well," Cohen said. Cohen said it normally takes three months to a year and a half for cases to be heard in Fulton County Superior Couty. He thinks it would take years for Trump's case to go to trial and believes his lawyers would likely try to postpone it until after the 2024 Presidential Election.
He's certainly running a Charm Offensive on Fanni Willis, the judge. the DOJ and everybody involved.
https://www.thenewcivilrightsmovement.c ... ndictment/Despite signing an agreement acknowledging he understands he may not “intimidate or attempt to intimidate a witness, victim, juror, informant, or officer of the court,” on Tuesday Donald Trump attacked Fulton County, Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis, who is expected to announce this month what would be the fourth criminal indictment against the ex-president. Speaking to supporters from a New Hampshire high school, Trump attacked Willis as “racist,” and baselessly claimed she had an affair with a gang member. Trump declared, “they say there’s a young woman, a young racist in Atlanta, a racist. And they say, I guess they say, that she was after a certain gang, and she ended up having an affair with the head of the gang or a gang member.” “And this is a person that wants to indict me,” Trump continued telling the audience. “She’s got a lot of problems, but she wants to indict me to try and run for some other office. What’s going on in this country is – and by the way, once you indict me for a perfect phone call, this was even better than my perfect call with Ukraine.”

BY MINI RACKER AUGUST 8, 2023 7:00 AM EDT

Here’s what makes the Georgia case so unique.
Trump couldn’t pardon himself in Georgia
The Constitution grants a president the ability to pardon anyone for federal crimes and those prosecuted by the Attorney for the District of Columbia on behalf of the United States. It does not allow a president authority to issue pardons for state convictions. While there is some debate about whether a president can actually pardon himself, it remains a possibility for Trump if he were to ultimately win back the White House next November. Certainly, another president could pardon Trump if he was convicted in the January 6 or classified documents cases. While Trump could not pardon himself if he were convicted in the hush money case, he could seek a pardon from New York’s governor, who is currently Democrat Kathy Hochul. Even that option wouldn’t be available to him in Georgia, where Trump could not pardon himself and could not ask Republican Governor Brian Kemp to do it. In Georgia, the authority to grant pardons belongs to an independent state board.
Stalling the Georgia case could be more challenging
The New York case is “a prosecution for older conduct,” says Mariotti. “I think, on its face, it’s less serious conduct than trying to assert power and prevent the peaceful transition of power in the United States. … It is the lowest class of felony under New York law.”
A trial in Georgia is more likely to be televised
Any upcoming trials for Trump are sure to be heavily covered by news outlets. But none of the trials for his three current criminal cases are likely to be televised. Under the Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure, federal courts do not generally allow video cameras during criminal cases. Many state courts do, but New York’s laws around filming trials are among the most restrictive in the nation, allowing recording only in very limited circumstances. Legal experts expect that those three trials are unlikely to be televised. Georgia, on the other hand, offers strong protections for open courts. [Realist may have a new friend soon!] Members of the media who submit requests to record proceedings are generally allowed to do so. If a judge intends to deny a request, they must promptly hold a hearing on the matter, according to Georgia’s Uniform Superior Court Rule 22. That means that if Trump is tried in Georgia for attempting to overturn the 2020 election there, the American public will likely be able to watch the proceedings, including witnesses delivering testimony against him.

https://thehill.com/regulation/court-ba ... spotlight/RICO charges
Some experts say Willis may settle on Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) charges in bringing a case against Trump. RICO statutes are typically used for organized crime, but the Georgia statute is broader than its federal counterpart and can be geared toward any “enterprise,” enabling the use of the statute for a wider variety of conduct. Doing so would help weave together different elements of the Trump campaign’s efforts, connecting a plot carried out by numerous actors. It also would allow numerous conspirators to potentially be charged alongside the former president.
“When you have a criminal enterprise that includes a pattern of violations, that’s inherently more serious and kind of separately serious than any individual criminal action,” said Noah Bookbinder, president of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, who also helped draft a model prosecution memo analyzing the case. “Charging a RICO offense kind of captures that this is a multifaceted, larger plan. I think that’s part of why that kind of statute exists, and it’s part of why prosecutors may charge it. It allows you to review lots of different conduct, but it also allows you to present a case and present evidence that this is a bigger scheme and not a couple of disparate events that could be dismissed as kind of small, individual actions.”
Otherwise, everything seems just great for the one-term, twice impeached, three-time indicted Florida retiree.
