That quote from the Smith filing is fascinating. There seems to be an implication — maybe an avoidable one — that Cannon doesn’t recognize or is in denial about the defendant/her benefactor/her party’s leader so yeah, clarification is needed. There’s a point at which she maybe has to cut the crap. And because I love my pet theory about the MAL case, maybe there actually is some proof of let’s say fPOTUS making deals re the classified materials with a message to Cannon that if she doesn’t start doing her job. If she doesn’t, Smith will have to go there and that could be ugly.

And to be clear about my paranoid nuts theory: I can’t see fPOTUS taking the materials at issue and not monetizing them, or at least using them to impress the few people of which he’s envious, like MBS and Putin. I know, sounds crazy. But that’s what fPOTUS has always been…

Anyway, barely related question: other than as an issue raised requiring verification or not, what does the Willis/Wade have to do with the case? And if anyone’s getting disqualified, it’s not going to be Willis. So either I’m correct or I’m missing something. If it’s the latter, what?

I'm so curious, and have never seen this question asked: who was running NARA while all of this happened, and why didn't they know exactly which documents were in his possession at any particular moment? I imagine it as a lending library that contains some items that are mind-blowingly dangerous, and I wonder why they wouldn't have a checkout system at least as robust as my local library, which knows exactly what books are in my possession at any time. Heck, even if I moved away (def not to FL), they'd know I still hadn't returned their copy of Crime and Punishment. Why did NARA let that buffoon keep taxpayer property, especially such dangerous property?

This Fani Willis thing is ridiculous. McAfee must be full blown MAGAT to even hear it in the first place.
