- ⚖️ Lindseay Halligan is called out by a judge for 11 instances of malfeasance and misconduct in her handling of the Jim Comey docket.
- 📄 Halligan misrepresented the Constitution, presented the case only once for two indictments, and wrongly implied the burden of proof was on Comey to prove innocence.
- 🚫 A judge confirmed missing hours from grand jury transcripts, raising further concerns about the integrity of the proceedings.
- 🚀 Donald Trump has issued a second pardon to militia member Dan Wilson, this time explicitly for unrelated weapons charges discovered during a January 6th investigation.
- 🏛️ The DOJ's attempt to extend Trump's pardon to cover unrelated crimes, including child pornography discovered during a January 6th search, is being legally tested.
- ⚖️ Several January 6th defendants have had unrelated convictions pardoned, while others, like Edward Kelly for conspiracy to kill officers, have had their pardon claims opposed by the DOJ.
Georgia Election Interference Case
- 🗳️ The Fulton County RICO indictment against Trump and co-conspirators is in jeopardy after DA Fani Willis was removed due to an appearance of impropriety.
- 🧑⚖️ Pete Scandalacis, executive director of the Prosecuting Attorneys Council, has taken over the case himself after other DAs declined.
- 📉 There are concerns that Scandalacis, a Republican, may intentionally torpedo the case, given his history of dismissing cases brought by Black district attorneys.
- 📄 Judge Scott McAfee has officially dropped three charges from the indictment, citing they lie beyond the state's jurisdiction.
Mortgage Fraud Allegations and Investigations
- 🏠 Bill Py has referred Representative Eric Swallwell to the DOJ for alleged mortgage fraud, marking the fourth such referral against a Democrat.
- 🔍 Swallwell denies the allegations, stating he has only one mortgage and that this is a politically motivated attack by Donald Trump.
- 🕵️ Fanny May's ethics investigators were probing if Bill Py improperly obtained mortgage records of key Democratic officials, including Leticia James and Eric Swallwell.
- 🚫 Investigators received internal complaints alleging senior officials directed staff to access these documents without proper authority or procedure, which is part of Leticia James's filing for outrageous government conduct.
- 💻 Keystroke records exist that could reveal who accessed these documents, potentially aiding Leticia James's case if it reaches discovery.
