US Court filings are quite ... informal, aren't they ?

Thanks for the new thread and glad to see the WH woofs

CNN (via apple news) just has a short blurb about the ruling. But I found this interesting;

"The documents will be subject to Grand Jury (GJ) secrecy rules that restrict their public release."

I wonder if this 'secrecy' ruling will change IF the NY atty decides to submit them as evidence in the actual court case once the GJ is done with them. I can kind of see the 'secrecy' during the GJ phase, but if the case goes to 'actual' trial you'd think any evidence would be made public.

Thanks for the new thread. Poor Snowflake...can you imagine having to say "Yes, Ted Cruz is my 'dad', sigh" to all the other doggos at the dog park?

@DGRossetti

I think perhaps the 'informality' of Dominion's submission to the courts has a lot to do with wanting the facts to be extremely clear to the public. They know a lot of people ("on both sides") will be reading it and want their position to be very clear and to get the facts across without a lot of 'legalese'.

If the case goes forwards, the documents would have to be submitted into evidence. (As I understand it). But until that point, the GJ deliberations are secret as they would tip off any potential witnesses as well as the prosecutors case. However the case may not go forwards. In which case the evidence is sealed or destroyed.

Grand juries are terribly old fashioned from a UK perspective. (Mind you, Monarchs are from a US one ). We lost them a century ago.

It read closer to film pitch

Maybe that's the idea. Already Hollywood are casting ....

Junior looking more and more deranged. He posted a video complaining about teacher unions and school closures whilst standing in front of a gun display.

@Cacacoisfarraige

My only understanding is ‘law and order’ but a GJ determines if there is a case to answer, with enough evidence to proceed ? Then the case Goes to trial with the evidence on full public display

Well usually. However not always. If the defendant dies (for example) so does the case - and all it's evidence.

Alternatively, the DAs office might decide not to prosecute after all, if they can leverage some other benefit from the situation.

American terrorists lack imagination.

Who does this to teachers, BTW?

TL;DR is that extremists are thick.

I really hope no one paid for that insight.

He's gone from a bumbling old man with dementia to godlike powerfulness awfully quickly.

They know it can be done because Trump did a similar thing to California.

Jesus. Trump’s response today. Not surprising at all but aaaargh!!!

He is running scared, witch hunt, prosecution, crazy Nancy, Mueller, Russia blah blah blah.

Just be glad he is no longer on twitter.

That statement is actually hilarious! Now that he is out of office, he just sounds like a moronic idiotic numbskull.

Now?

The only difference now is that what he says and does have fewer consequences, barely any, thankfully and hopefully.

Exactly!

Before... it was almost like... oh heck so many will be reading this through Twitter, and it all escalated.

Now... he just sounds petulant and pathetic. I have always found it funny when someone talks about themselves in the third person too!

Tax.

Even funnier... DonJr is ranting and raving and off his head about these tax returns. He is likening NY to China. 😂

I notice that he keeps referring to himself in the 3rd person as "President Donald Doofus" rather than 'former' President. The very most you'll get out of him is referring to himself In the 3rd perso) as the '45th President'.

That statement reads like a 3 year old tantrumming "I AM SO STILL THE PRESIDENT CUZ I SAY SO, SO THERE!!!! AND YOU GUYS ARE SOOO MEAN TO ME!!!!!".

Placemarking, with thanks and to remark that of course Jill Biden has committed the heinous crime (in Trumpian eyes) of being a teacher.
