1. LOL! Fani Willis isn't playing.

Get your ass to Atlanta. Now.

[DBoon]

2. We should nickname Fanni Willis "Unconditional Surrender Willis"

[peggysue2]

5. LOL!!

Love that moniker.

[DBoon]

9. I saw "surrender in Atlanta" and this came to mind

[peggysue2]

15. Good one, Boon

And General Grant? Not too shabby either.

[ExWhoDoesntCare]

29. Except Grant didn't go to Atlanta

The one who beat Atlanta like a shag rug was this guy:

[DBoon]

30. was Grant in his chain of command?

I mean, I couldn't resist "Unconditional Surrender" and Atlanta, even if Grant wasn't actually there

[spanone]

3. I.O.W.

FUCK OFF.

[Irish_Dem]

7. Yep. Take your extension and shove it up your ***.

[spanone]

24. 👍🏼🤣

4. Snarf!

She's got their "number," that's for sure.


BTW, is a calligraphy rendering of a signature technically legally binding? I like it and perhaps it isn't much different from a signature "stamp," but...? **Never Mind--on edit, I see it is from her email**

[Irish_Dem]

6. Wow, very impressive.

No kid gloves for Trump's friends.

Now she needs to do the same in regard to Trump.

[Recycle_Guru]

20. and the message to Meadows was actually message to Trump

ALL will be treated the same as other criminal defendants in this jurisdiction.

[Irish_Dem]

22. It certainly seems that way.

All criminal defendants will be treated the same.

8. Just because Meadows has cut a deal with Jack Smith and the Feds does not mean he doesn't have to ..

... fellow the rule of law in Georgia.

Mark Meadows: Can you give me more time?

Fani Willis: No.

Meadows is looking @ a RICO charge in Georgia from D.A. Willis. 5 years mandatory time. Time for
you to get chatty Mark.

[Tree Lady]

18. I bet Jack is smiling at this

He is playing his game and enjoying watching hers.

[Irish_Dem]

25. If Meadows has flipped for Smith, would Smith want Fani to make nice with Meadows?

To keep Meadows happy? Or would Smith want Fani to squeeze Meadows even more?

[Botany]

27. Now without any real knowledge of what is going on I would bet $5.00 that both Fani and Jack ...

are working very hard not to talk to each other outside of their peoples working on
the scheduling of "court stuff" in order to avoid any appeals of their verdicts because
of something or other. Now if either team Jack or team Fani exposes stuff during their
trials then the other team might use that "stuff" in their work.

I'm willing to bet that Meadows will sing like a bird to avoid the 5 year mandatory sentence
for RICO charges.

I might be wrong but I bet that Donny is looking to flee America because the walls are closing
in on him PDQ.

[Irish_Dem]

28. Fani admitted in an interview on TV that she has talked to Smith.

She would not say what they talked about but it appeared to be more than just scheduling issues.
(So I will take your bet!)

Yes it is apparent that fleeing is on Trump's mind.

[roamer65]

10. ...

[getagrip_already]

11. Didn't meadows get removed to federal court?

I guess he still needs to show for booking.

[Ocelot II]

17. No. The motion hasn't been heard yet.

[MLAA]

12. Oh no! You mean Mark Meadows (RC - Republican Coward) isn't special?

[Bayard]

13. Dear Mark,

Get your ass to Georgia.

Love,
Fani

14. Two Trump-linked attorneys -- Alex Kaufman and Kurt Hilbert -- have been subpoenaed to appear

[riversedge]

16. Well, mr. Meadows--most likely the 3 AM slots on TW and Thrus are open. You can sneak

in and out under cover of the Dark. go for it.

[dem4decades]

19. So Meadows defense in the Georgia case was he was just following orders but

Then in the same case he says he can't follow orders.

Fuck these guys.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

21. This letter from Meadow's attorney is really arrogant

[miyazaki]

31. Ha, it's stated he has the right 'not' to be arrested.

Throw his ass in the hole.

[JohnSJ]

23. If he can travel to Georgia to commit election fraud at a moment's notice, he should have no problem

within a two week time frame

26. Meadows has filed new motion demanding immediate removal to Federal Court or stay from arrest

Last edited Tue Aug 22, 2023, 06:13 PM - Edit history (1)

This motion is very arrogant. Meadows filed to remove to federal court. That statute provides that the state criminal proceeding continues until the case is formerly removed. The federal court ruled earlier that Meadows’ motion is sufficient to avoid an immediate dismissal and set a hearing for Monday of next week

Meadows’ motion simply assumes that Meadows is entitled to immediate removal to federal court or a stay. I hope the judge rejects this motion

This part of the motion is really concerning

The Federal Officer Removal Statute by default removes to federal court the entire
case, not just the charges against Mr. Meadows—whether or not other defendants
wish to remove or have a legal basis to do so. See Heinze, 637 F. Supp. 3d at 1325
n.8 (“‘It is well settled that if one claim cognizable under Section 1442 is present,
the entire action is removed, regardless of the relationship between the Section 1442
claim and the non-removable claims.’”) (quoting Nadler v. Mann, 951 F.2d 301, 306
n.9 (11th Cir. 1992)). Mr. Meadows, of course, had no control over how the case
was presented to the grand jury and seeks removal only on his own behalf. A district court
court may remand proceedings against remaining defendants after dismissing
charges against federal officials, see Spencer v. New Orleans Levee Bd., 737 F.2d
435, 438 (5th Cir. 1984), and at least one has severed a case after permitting removal
and then remanded the non-removable portion to state court, see Joyner v. A.C. & R.
Insulation Co., No. CIV. CCB-12-2294, 2013 WL 877125, at *9-10 (D. Md. Mar.
7, 2013). But however the Court should proceed, Mr. Meadows has an “absolute”
right to have the charges against him heard in federal court, Willingham, 395 U.S. at
406, and the Federal Officer Removal Statute calls for prompt consideration of his
Notice

Meadows is swinging for the fences and I hope that the judge tells Meadows to shut up and get arraigned.
