Title:   JUDICIAL LYNCHING OR EXTREME PREJUDICE?

By: Jun Policarpio


 It's a trigger-happy Black female Obama-appointed District Court Judge carrying a Jamaican name of Tanya Sue Chutkan who will decide to convict or not to convict President  Donald J. Trump based on the criminal charges filed by a Special Counsel named Jack Smith.  Smith was  appointed by Joe Biden’s Attorney General named Merritt Garland. At this juncture, I have named the major players of what maybe dubbed as a weird criminal trial of the century.

Merritt Garland appointed Jack Smith to investigate Trump, currently the leading GOP presidential candidate for the 2024 elections, on the issue of classified documents found in his home in Mar-a-Lago, Florida and another issue of his involvement in the pro-Trump election protesters that entered the Capitol Building on January 6, 2021. 

Garland who is a former judge reportedly cried like a woman in distress, perhaps out of bitterness when Trump dumped him as an Obama  nominee for a seat at the Supreme Court. Now, as the nation's chief law enforcer second to Biden, his fingers seem to be very itchy, so to speak,  to use all available power and resources to put President Trump in jail approximately for 641 years, as estimated by POLITICO,  a Washington-based news media company. 

D.C. or the District of Columbia is the site of Trump's criminal trial where Jack Smith will argue before Judge Chutkan why Biden's formidable political rival  should be in jail for committing his four trumped-up charges, namely: 

Conspiracy to Defraud the United States

Conspiracy to Obstruct an Official Proceeding

Obstruction of and Attempt to Obstruct an Official Proceeding

Conspiracy Against Rights

Trump has expressed his desire to move the venue from D.C.  to West Virginia. The West Virginia Attorney General, Patrick Morrisey, welcomed the idea to avoid any appearance of unfair treatment based on political affiliation and ideology of the Trial Judge, the selected jury, and that of the D.C.   community.

For one thing, the judge has demonstrated her anti-Trump fury towards the pro-Trump protesters who were convicted with no jail time recommended by the prosecutor. Yet she reportedly sentenced them to be jailed for several days. Amazing!

In D.C., only 6.17% of all registered voters are Republicans; therefore, the remaining 93.83% are overwhelmingly Democrats. The District of Columbia is generally known as the bluest political spot in the nation. Biden has also stigmatized Trump as leader of the MAGA(Make America Great Again) Republicans which he described  as "extremists" and "domestic enemies" during his Independence Day Speech in Philadelphia. 

For another thing, Jack Smith and his wife, Katy Savigny are Biden donors. His wife is a documentary film maker known for her film BECOMING, a biography of Michelle Obama. His mother-in-law named Bell Savigny was Senior Justice Fellow at George Soros's Open Society Foundation. She also sat on the board of a Hillary Clinton-funded Human Rights Defense Center known for its leftist ideology. 

Jack Smith is supposed to be an Independent Counsel. Is there any question that he can't be? No way, says the man on the street. 

So if President Trump would be forced to be tried under these circumstances, would this be a proto-type of a JUDICIAL LYNCHING or a good example of EXTREME PREJUDICE?
