    From JAB@21:1/5 to All on Fri Oct 18 13:29:37 2024
    Judge Chutkan's 5-page order rejecting Trump's request to keep
    materials secret until after the election: "If the court withheld
    information that the public otherwise had a right to access solely
    because of the potential political consequences of releasing it, that withholding could itself constitute -- or appear to be -- election interference."

    This judge appears to have an axe to grind, judging by her recent history pertaining to the events of Jan 6. With having been both doxed and swatted, her attitude is somewhat understood.

    But not justified. Behaviour like that shows that the judge holds personal vendettas higher than the law.

    I'm not aware of a legal doctrine suggesting a person's claimed "dirty
    laundry" should be hidden for a candidate. In a democracy, making an
    exception for political candidates would not be fair, since the rest
    of us can't choose a time when the dirty laundry is exposed. And,
    needless to say, voters should have a 'fair/balanced' understanding.

    In any event, those voting for the moralless one are not concerned
    about his piles and piles of dirty laundry.

    My interpretation is that in order to do that, an active action has to be performed, which clearly shows the political agenda of the judge and an perversion of the law. If it would have been the default, without any
    active action, no one could have complained.

    In any event, those voting for the moralless one are not concerned
    about his piles and piles of dirty laundry.

    The smart people know that this is just lawfare and discreditation, and
    will not let themselves be persuaded. Trump has God on his side.

    My interpretation

    His attorneys can oppose, and gain brownie points if successful.

    Then, like I said,
