I have said all along that the Jack Smith indictment recently announced was pretty much a joke.
A report came out that Smith admitted they had screwed up.
They had not turned over the proper evidence to the Trump camp during discovery.
Now Smith has made another admission, and it is far more troublesome.
Inaccurate
The latest admission comes via the big Elon Musk news that hit the wires toward the latter part of the week.
Musk and Twitter had refused to comply with an order originating from Smith’s office about Trump’s Twitter account.
The DOJ wanted the records and data turned over, but Musk would not comply on the pretense it was a violation of Trump’s First Amendment rights.
In addition to the data, there was an NDA forbidding Twitter to say anything about the warrant.
It turns out, Smith had information in the request that was completely inaccurate.
A court decision stated, “The district court also found reason to believe that the former President would ‘flee from prosecution.’
“The government later acknowledged, however, that it had ‘errantly included flight from prosecution as a predicate’ in its application” for the non-disclosure order.”
As noted above, this is now the second “mistake” the government has made on this front.
Prosecutors admitted earlier this month, “The Government’s representation at the July 18 hearing that all surveillance footage the Government had obtained pre-indictment had been produced was therefore incorrect.”
This is like the Russian collusion nonsense all over again, only we are learning about the lying and deception far earlier in the case.
