I stand with the 6th, too. Why aren’t there cameras in court room? (It’s not about protecting jurors) why can’t anything be said about the judges daughter being a democrat operative? Etc…
Not a godamn thing about gag orders. The fuckery all hinges on one word, “impartial”. The judge has made previous statements in speeches about the judicial latitude to steer evidence and use estoppel to influence a trial.
It should be a legal free for all in the public square. Trust the jury to sort it out..
But if the jury finds Trump guilty and there’s reason to argue they weren’t impartial, it’s grounds for appeal, or even a mistrial. So we cannot just let anything go.
I know this next point would shock Trump or his supporters, but
Donald Trump is not the only person in that courtroom with rights. The judge, the attorneys, courtroom staff and jury have rights too. The poor jury is made up of average citizens like us, who by chance were drawn for this trial. They have every right to do their civic duty without being threatened, harasses, stalked, intimidated, coerced, or having death threats made against them or their families by psychopath MAGA dorks…
So we cannot just have a “free for all” and let the jury sort it out.
As far as the accusations you’re making? Don Jr, or Ivanka, or FOX News or Newsmax, or Trump’s campaign staff, can accuse people of being Dem operatives all they want (provided it doesn’t fall into the realm of threats or slander. But this is where we’re at as a country, I guess: people want to defend Trump’s “free speech rights” to attack and harass people, but not those people’s rights to be free from it.
