Merrick Garland Has Tough Decisions [View all]
He must consider the Magat Supreme Court, here is one example;
Over a year ago the J6 committee subpoenaed Mark Meadows and he provided a lot of documents but when Trump found out Meadows stopped cooperating, claiming executive privilege. The J6 committee sent a criminal referral to DOJ for Meadows and Bannon. DOJ dismissed the Meadow's referral but indicted Bannon, because DOJ would have had to fight against executive privilege which would have gone to the Magat SC. Last month DOJ subpoenaed Meadows but just for the documents he already provided to the J6 committee, once again DOJ did not want to take on executive privilege, the sanctity between a president and his Chief of Staff.
Meadows is the key player in indicting Trump, he was the middle man between Trump and the Willard hotel.
Meadows was the key man in the theft of classified documents, he supervised it.
To nail Trump for seditious conspiracy or espionage or theft of documents Garland will have to challenge executive privilege with a fascist SC.
Seriously, Garland may not need Meadow's testimony to indict Trump for obstruction of justice re: the theft of classified documents which carries a 20 year maximum sentence.
Maybe that is the best option for Garland, challenging executive privilege, even though it is being claimed to hide criminal activity may not be waived by the SC we now have and would take a very long time to resolve.
