A judge in Georgia on Wednesday denied motions from two co-defendants to sever their cases from one another in the sprawling racketeering prosecution against Donald Trump.
Fulton County Judge Scott McAfee handed down the decision after more than 90 minutes of arguments from prosecutors and defense counsel. The ruling is a win for Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, and means Kenneth Chesebro and Sidney Powell will be tried together, beginning Oct. 23.
The pair are now “hurtling forward” toward trial, McAfee said as he set new deadlines and scheduling orders.
What? The NY one for the obvious payment fraud/misrepresentation is an open shut one, there’s no dispute of the facts; The one in Florida might take a while but one co-defendant already struck a cooperation agreement with Jack ‘Killer Gaze’ Smith; The one in DC with the streamlined indictment and the already established Jan 6 facts Mark Meadows aide testified under oath for the Committee should be pretty straight forward as well; As for this mess down in Georgia I fear that if the case gets severed the orange dirt bag might weasel out of conviction if the prosecutors aren’t allowed to present the case as a whole like it was brought by the grand jury. Now the Civil ones are one guilty liability already found at the Jean E Carrol with another recent ruling allowing for damages only for the second go at the Carrol defamation saga and the one about the tax fraud the trumpet crime family had been perpetrating against the state of NY for decades is well known and not a disputed fact as all the crimes this dirt bag commits it’s just a matter of keeping his homegrown terrorist wakos away from prosecutors and juries. And lastly the disqualification argument is already being litigated in some states so we might free ourselves from the impending doom of another losing run at the presidency, subsequent fraud whines and maybe some more violence from his unhinged cult followers at the Jan 6 scale or some organized episodes on certain states, this way it would remain lone wolves posting dumb shit on the interwebz instead of a horde of angry racist boomers and white supremacists terrorizing some election workers or some shit like that.
