I have a bad feeling about this. This is not the right thing to do. I know there’s a public interest angle, but it’s also ‘the people’ that the DOJ is representing when it investigates and prosecutes someone.
Also, too: no matter how much you disclose, it will never be enough. They will never accept what you release. Just look at how they acted when DOJ allowed the release of the search warrant. That just gave them more fodder to get angry over and now here we are possibly releasing the Affidavit (albeit redacted).
The judge has to realize he is trying to negotiate with terrorists. TFG’s supporters are basically terrorists (they’re already threatening the judge) and you can’t negotiate with crazy. Perhaps the judge thinks they will leave him alone if he does this, but they won’t. They just won’t.
