After everything he was trying to hide was inadvertently disclosed to the public, 2020 Trump lawyer John Eastman withdrew his appeal to stop the documents’ release.
It’s a potentially shocking breach of attorney ethics, even for a group of people who spent months arguing with no evidence that the 2020 election needed to be overturned.
Don’t you mean a “shocking breach of attorney ethics, even for a group of people who” have no ethics.
New frontiers of incompetence, setting the bar even lower. What fucking maroons they are.
From there, the emails showed, Eastman and others discussed how to still include the data, which they appear to have understood was false, in another lawsuit seeking to overturn Biden’s win, hoping to persuade a federal judge while limiting their own liability for including the faulty information.
They took notes on a criminal fucking conspiracy.
but the January 6 Committee said that it had already accessed the emails via a link that Eastman provided.
They mailed their notes to the one congressional committee investigating the conspiracy.
The emails were revealed on Wednesday following a bizarre mishap: the January 6 Committee included the address of the link that Eastman had sent it to access the records in a Tuesday night court filing
The committee “accidentally” makes those emails available to the public.
This is unbelieveable horseshit! Fire the scriptwriters!
IANAL, but shouldn’t Eastman have gotten this settled before he hit send, like notifying the J6th Committee on his intention to file an appeal?
Did he expect them to be mind readers?
That was the Committee’s response to the court in its reply to Eastman’s appeal.
So that’s where I heard it. 
Sure, just like his orange master used Jedi mind tricks to declassify documents.
I guess Eastman’s figuring, Why delay the inevitable? He might want to look over in Patel’s direction and see about some sort of plea in exchange for what he knows–not that I think he deserves any sort of slack cut on his behalf, mind you.
I’m guiltily innocent
Treason-weasel!
Why do I have that disgusting feeling that he’s gonna get away with no punishment?
He should at least have gotten them to pinky swear that they would not release the emails.
Ginni: “You don’t need to see his de-classifications.”
Clarence: “We don’t need to see his de-classifications.”
Ginni: “These aren’t the documents you’re looking for.”
Clarence: “These aren’t the documents we’re looking for.”
Ginni: “He can go about his business.”
Clarence: “You can go about your business.”
Ginni: “Move along.”
Clarence: “Move along.”
Amazing that an attorney can harass a judge to take back their suspicion of criminality because that’s not the adventure Eastman chose. Can people like Cletus and Dipstik here really massage their malfeasance using the courts until they are no longer culpable?
yes yes yes yes!
For iDJiT, this will be worse than being indicted.
No more flagrant law-breaking for Trump Org.
Patel has not made a plea deal. His immunity “deal”, as some describe it, is one-sided. DoJ said “we’re gonna immunize your ass so you have to testify or go to jail”, and they did*. Now if he doesn’t testify it’s civil contempt of court, where the judge tells the bailiff to haul your ass straight to the pokey until you feel like talking. Also, DoJ gets to think about charging you with obstruction of justice.
*technically they requested the court immunize him, but that’s just how it works. It’s still a one-sided situation where Patel would much prefer to sit back and say “fifth, fifth, fifth”.
Haha. The J6 Committee “mistakenly” included a live link to the disputed documents in a court filing. Masterful stroke. Bet someone quickly called their favorite journalist to suggest they check out that court filing.
