YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Donald Trump-appointed Judge Aileen Cannon reveals a new order that could win Trump's case for him through bizarre jury instructions that would target special counsel Jack Smith's case in Trump’s classified documents trial, if a trial date is set by Cannon. Francesca Fiorentini and Sharon Reed break it down on The Damage Report.

Cannon’s jury instruction order could crush Jack Smith’s case

"U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon is at it again.

Her latest weird move in Donald Trump’s classified documents case involves jury instructions. That may sound like a mundane subject but it’s quite important, because these instructions are what a jury will use to consider whether special counsel Jack Smith has proved his case beyond a reasonable doubt. (That is, if the Trump-appointed judge ever sets a trial date and a trial actually happens.)

The problem is that Cannon is apparently contemplating instructions that could effectively win Trump’s case for him, regardless of how strong the evidence against him is. To understand why, recall that the judge’s latest move comes against the backdrop of Trump’s claim that, under the Presidential Records Act, he could have deemed whatever sensitive government records he wanted to as “personal” and then taken them with him from the White House, precluding the government from prosecuting him over the retention. It’s a nonsensical position that Cannon could have rejected outright, but she chose to hold a hearing on it last week."
