Political News and Conservative Analysis About Congress, the President, and the Federal Government
Prosecutors for Smith filed numerous instances of threats Trump supporters made in the wake of the former president making critical statements about the investigation, as the government attempts to convince Judge Aileen Cannon to approve the speech restriction.Cannon, a Trump appointee, appeared skeptical of the government’s request at a hearing this week.
They said their request was prompted by Trump, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, peddling a false narrative that his opponent, President, plotted to assassinate him. Trump based his claims on the revelation that a warrant the FBI used to search his Mar-a-Lago residence in 2022 contained policy information about the use of “lethal force.
Prosecutors called Trump’s remarks “deceptive” and said they “irresponsibly put a target on the backs of the FBI agents involved in this case, as Trump well knows.” “The last thing you’ll ever hear are the horrified shrieks of your widow and orphans,” Muller said in a voicemail on June 11, the same daywas convicted in a gun case that the FBI’s Baltimore office had been involved with. Muller claimed in the voicemail that the agent let the president’s son off easy.Trump, who opposes Smith’s request, filed his own motion Wednesday night, asking Cannon to grant his defense team two extra weeks to respond to Smith’s new batch of evidence.
