Are you f***ing kidding me???

Special Prosecutor Jack Smith's brief on Trump's conduct that isn't (or shouldn't be) subject to the Supreme Court's recent grant of kingly immunity is in, and I am even more incredulous that his SCOTUS henchmen have been trying to let him off the hook for this shit.

It’s been a day and a half since Judge Tanya Chutkan unsealed Jack Smith’s 165-page truth bomb of a motion, and now everybody’s had more time to swirl it around the snifter.

Here’s some more juicy bits you might have missed!

The government’s got Trump’s phone records
For the first time, we can corroborate exactly what Trump was doing during the siege of the Capitol: From 1:25 to 4 PM he was sitting in his dining room, scrolling Twitter and watching Fox News and refusing to do fuck-all as aides gave him frantic updates.

Even after Ashli Babbitt was shot and killed, at 2:44 PM, and with Eric Herschmann and Pat Cipollone begging him, even yelling at him to “tell everyone to get the fuck out out the Capitol, right now,” and “you’re destroying your legacy, you’re destroying everything anyone’s ever worked for,” Trump could not be assed to do a goddamn thing but watch television. Finally he tweeted that everyone should “remain peaceful” at 3:13 PM. But he still didn’t call the National Guard.

It was all about Mike Pence
Yes, we could already infer this, but seeing it put together fleshes out the screenplay and timeline.

After leaning on state officials with his outrageous lies about dead voters and mass fraud, and begging them to “find” him thousands of votes, had painfully bellyflopped, Trump’s “Operation PENCE CARD” plan to make Pence substitute fake electors was his very last chance to stay in power. Sure, Trump liked the spectacle of his adoring supporters with their bear spray and all, but getting to Pence to make him stop the count by any means necessary was the entire point of sending rioters to the Capitol that day.

Before January 6, Trump’s team harassed Pence and his lawyers with phone calls and meetings, with Trump haranguing Pence about how if he didn’t come through, hundreds of thousands of people were “gonna hate your guts” and were “gonna think you’re stupid.” And at every turn, Pence rebuffed him, though was still willing to be his friend. On 11:15 AM on January 6, Trump made one last pestering call to Pence, who was still not having it. So Trump added language to his speech at the Ellipse:

If Pence “comes through for us, we will win the Presidency” and “All Mike Pence has to do is send them back to the States, AND WE WIN.”

Even the dirt-stupid slackjaws in the crowd got the message, and went after him like coonhounds on a varmint, screaming, “Hang Mike Pence!” and “Where is Pence? Bring him out!” and “Traitor Pence!” They even prepared for him his own wonky gallows. Of course the crowd of conspiracy-theorist yeehaws would not have minded taking out other legislators, but Pence was the prize snipe.

At 2:24 PM, after Trump was told Pence was in mortal danger, with rioters coming within 40 feet of where Pence was sheltering, and replied “so what,” and the very minute Pence was being evacuated from his Senate office to a loading dock below the Capitol, Trump tweeted:

“Mike Pence didn’t have the courage to do what should have been done to protect our Country and our Constitution, giving States a chance to certify a corrected set of facts, not the fraudulent or inaccurate ones which they were asked to previously certify. USA demands the truth!”

Knowing now what Trump knew at that point, it kind of reads like a (really mean) eulogy, doesn’t it?

Steve Bannon was more involved than we knew
Listed as Person 1 (P1) in the document (and inmate 05635-509 at Danbury prison!), old Sloppy Steve was tighter with Trump and had his fingers in more pies than previously revealed. He was Couper Helper number one! He spoke to Trump every single day, and knew what he was plotting before anyone else. He balls-out announced on his podcast Trump’s plan to declare victory, win or lose, and on January 5: “All hell is going to break loose tomorrow.” On November 13, he told Christina Bobb (maybe? CC6) that Trump had fired Justin Clark and Bill Stepien, and put Rudy Giuliani in charge as her new boss.

He gets out of prison at the end of this month, and then will go on trial in December in New York for that build-the-wall scamming. So even if he doesn’t go down for January 6, hopefully he’ll stay kept away from the rest of us.
