The last shot at ending this tyrannical madness.
HOLY SH*T: Supreme Court will review 1512(c)(2), obstruction of an official proceeding case.
This is felony used against 300+ J6ers and represents half of Jack Smith's indictment against Trump.
If SCOTUS determines DOJ has misused the statute…will be a game changer.

Supreme Court Takes Case With Major Implications For Trump, Jan. 6 Defendants
By: Daily Caller, December 13, 2023:
The Supreme Court agreed Wednesday to hear a case with major implications for hundreds of Jan. 6 defendants, as well as former President Donald Trump’s indictment on charges stemming from alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election.
In a brief order, the justices agreed to hear a case stemming from Jan. 6 defendant Joseph Fischer’s request to dismiss a charge against him for obstructing an official proceeding. His case provides the Supreme Court an opportunity to rule on the scope of a statute, Section 1512(c)(2), which he argues has been used to charge hundreds of other defendants in an “unprecedented extension of the statute’s reach.”
“Hundreds of cases have been and will be affected by the scope of Section 1512(c)(2), including a case against the former President,” Fischer’s petition notes. “In addition, the use of Section 1512(c)(2) outside evidence impairment crimes is an extraordinary and unprecedented extension of the statute’s reach.”
The statute threatens to levy fines or up to 20 years in prison for anyone who “obstructs, influences, or impedes any official proceeding.” Jan. 6 defendants, including Fischer, have been charged under Section 1512(c)(2) for obstructing Congress’s certification of President Joe Biden’s victory.

Trump also faces the obstruction charge in his indictment for alleged efforts to interfere with the 2020 election.
Fischer argues that the government seeks to sever the statute “from its legislative, historical, and textual moorings.”
“The D.C. Circuit’s expansion of Section 1512(c)(2) beyond evidence impairment to protests at the seat of government thus conflicts with the interpretations of other courts of appeal limiting the scope of the same statute,” Fischer’s attorneys wrote in a court filing.
Two other defendants, Edward Lang and Garrett Miller, also earlier asked the Supreme Court to dismiss obstruction charges against them.

The first one should be the mr. halliburton’s RINO daughter, who is the worst one of the bunch.

Those indictments against Donald Trump by those vicious malice-filled leftists in power isn’t really “; legal prosecution” but political persecution.
Those vicious leftist/socialists along with their comrades of the Red/Green alliance have now come after Donald Trump with all their hate-filled malice, it’s only a matter of time before they will later come after all Conservative patriotic Americans.
Actually , they already have, as seen in that Joe Biden gulag in which “Big Brother Biden” keeps his political prisoners from January 6, 2021.

“If SCOTUS determines DOJ has misused the statute…will be a game changer.”
That’s a VERY big “IF”. Epstein Island-visitor John Roberts will be told by those in charge to determine that the DOJ has N O T misused the statute…

Which part of “… otherwise obstructs, influences, or impedes any official proceeding, or attempts to do so,” is too complicated for you to understand?

You, obviously are too indoctrinated, to understand what the REAL TRUTH is.

Really depends on whether the presiding judge is conservative or Dem. Demonocrats seem to have everything stacked in their favor from the 2020 election till now.

The kangaroo court ignored the obvious 2020 coup and told states who sued “They have no standing”. Imagine a Constitutional Republic where states have no standing when fighting a coup. This country is over. Ammo up and get ready for the party. It’s going to get ugly.
