Final report into Trump's handling of classified documents should never be released: DOJ

Hours after President Donald Trump publicly praised the judge who oversaw his classified documents case, lawyers with the Department of Justice urged the U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon to ensure the final report into Trump's alleged conduct never becomes public.

DOJ lawyers and attorneys representing Trump's former co-defendants argued that Judge Cannon should "under no circumstances" release the volume of Special Counsel Jack Smith's final report about the president's alleged retention of classified documents, alleging the report would violate the due process rights of Trump's top White House aide Walt Nauta and Mar-a-Lago property manager Carlos De Oliveira.

"They endured approximately a year-and-a-half of rampant pretrial publicity and vilification after their indictments were sought by an unconstitutionally appointed prosecutor with unconstitutionally limitless funding, who then went on to use the materials he collected in his unlawful investigation (at continued unconstitutional expense) to craft the Report intended to justify his actions," the DOJ lawyers wrote in a status report filed in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida.

"We had an amazing judge in Florida, Trump said at DOJ headquarters on Friday. "Actually, she was brilliant. She moved quickly. She was the absolute model of what a judge should be. She was strong and tough."

1. It explains why Krasnov stole the documents,

and the parts that Kash Patel and Waltine Nauta played.

2. ***vomit***

Yeah, Cannon was a "model" judge. How many lies were packed into that excerpt?

[oldmanlynn]

3. If a dem president gets in we better clean house in DOJ

Whoever is going along with this sham should be fired.

I hope we get a fair chance to put a dem president back in place.

4. If this was info discussed during hearings Jack Smith would have a copy. nt

[mountain grammy]

5. Even if the report was released

Nothing would change. The news would spend 3 minutes on it and move on.

That said, the report should be released.

[republianmushroom]

6. Trust our Dept. of Justice to protect America. No one is above the law. Ha Ha Ha

49 months and counting. Thank you Merrick the Meek, thank you.

Now do we stop blaming the judges and courts for protecting the convicted felon. Seems the DOJ has been assisting in this from the start. IMO.

7. Doesn't matter. Two or three generations will have to die out

Otherwise we all have it in memory.

[ellise]

8. She is not a HERO ..

She was and is a damn crooked judge…

[mdbl]

10. No argument here.

[usaf-vet]

23. If it were to get released. IT NEEDS TO GET RELEASED! There would be thousands downloaded to individual computers

[mdbl]

25. I agree with you too.

Problem is the magats convinced enough voters take us to 1984 - Orwell's version. My point was that we know for sure he broke the law by taking the documents, whether we see the whole case or not. Obviously, the majority US voters in the last election, assuming it wasn't fixed, didn't think it was that big enough deal.

9. Odds that she will be the next Supreme Court Justice?

Very high.

[JohnnyRingo]

11. Oh come on! Let's exonerate him.

He knows that he did "nothing wrong", and he'd like to clear his name once and for all.
Help the guy out!

What a lying fucking piece of shit, unlike any other that has roamed the Earth without religious context.

[NotHardly]

12. How much did he get$$$$ for those he sent to Russia?

[Duncan Grant]

17. My first thought, too.

He’s the most venal criminal in the history of the country. So shameless, so corrupt — that he’s achieved folk hero status. More monstrous than Medusa, more bluntly vindictive than a war criminal, and so densely stupid he warps light waves. He a plague on every good and decent person who’s ever lived.

And the people who protect him? Cowards, gamblers and fools.

(Sorry, don’t know what came over me.)

[HereForTheParty]

13. Doesn't matter, I'm afraid

His supporters would write off-anything incriminating as Jack Smith's fault.

[Botany]

14. We executed 2 people for doing the same stuff and another died doing 15 life terms in our Super Max ..

…. prison on Colorado.

The Rosenbergs and FBI Agent Robert Hansen.

The Coup worked. Pack the Fed. courts with shits like Cannon and our Supreme Court with
6 traitors likeThomas, Roberts, Alito, Coney Island, Goursch, and Kavanaugh, get a right wing
controlled media to push the lies, a GOP in power, and non stop Russian disinformation and
the biggest crook in American history walks free. Also we have millions of Americans who are
racist, sexist, stupid, and Christo Fascist who care not about the law and shit happens.

[love_katz]

16. Your comment deserves to be on billboards nationwide.

[Harker]

15. It's bad enough that the case was sabotaged without Trumpsky bleating about it. n/t

[Gimpyknee]

18. Aileen Cannon moved quickly????

Trump lie #?

[Orrex]

19. Garland will come through for us any day now

[prodigitalson]

21. there needs to be a day late/dollar short, swing at the king and miss award named after that dude

seriously, has anyone ever second guessed and hand wrung themselves themselves and everyone else into a bigger disaster?

[Orrex]

22. Well, the most important thing is that he avoided the appearance of political motivation

Because, in the end, isn't that a much bigger deal than holding a Russian asset accountable for stealing classified materials?

[red dog 1]

20. I only have one question..

Is he dead yet?

[truthisfreedom]

24. Time to leak
