BREAKING: Now It's Jack Smith Who Wants to Silence Trump—Files Friday Night Gag Order Request
By Bob Hoge | 1:44 AM on May 25, 2024

It’s not only Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and the judge overseeing his absurd business expense records case, Judge Juan Merchan, who want to silence Donald Trump as he speaks out on the various lawfare prosecutions against him—now it’s Special Counsel Jack Smith. Smith is in a tizzy that the former president would dare criticize the tactics used by the FBI and the DOJ when they raided his Palm Beach, Florida home, Mar-a-Lago, in search of evidence regarding the classified documents probe.

Smith, in a Friday night filing, begged Judge Aileen Cannon to force the former president into silence. How dare he criticize the DOJ’s ultra-aggressive use of force in the investigation. Make him stop, Smith demanded:

    Special counsel Jack Smith in a Friday filing called on the judge overseeing former President Trump’s classified documents case to block Trump from speaking about the case in a way that could endanger law enforcement officials.

    In his request, Smith asked the court to impose a condition that would bar Trump from making public statements that could “pose a significant, imminent, and foreseeable danger to the law enforcement agents participating in the investigation and prosecution of this case.”

    “Whether a particular statement meets that test “must be determined by reference to the statement’s full context,” the filing reads. “But that condition would clearly prohibit further statements deceptively claiming that the agents involved in the execution of the search warrant were engaged in an effort to kill him, his family, or Secret Service agents.”

Wingnut:
Jake might be the stupidest mofo in the world

Cyber Liberty:
Maybe lil' Jack should not have put the "Deadly Force" instructions in his search warrant?  Just thinking out loud here.  I hear it's "standard" for warrants, but there were no similar clauses when they searched Biden, and in both cases the Secret Service personnel were present.   

Only in Trump's case were the SS folks put into jeopardy.

I believe they were just hoping for any excuse to take Trump out. Perhaps I'm reading more into the scenario than warranted; but I have absolutely zero trust in our DOJ.

DefiantMassRINO:
It would have been difficult for the FBI to use deadly force against Trump during the Mar-a-Lago Riad because Trump was not at Mar-a-Lago when the search was being carried out.

It's a shame when the truth contradicts a MAGA insurrection dogwhistle.
