Excellent article Julie! There is hope those responsible may held accountable. From now to midterms I am pretty confident we will see many indictments by AG Blanche, he is doing a great job so far.

Surely you are not going to sleep until September, but I will wake you up. πŸ˜‚

(!). I can't help it. Blondie Bondi was habit-forming.

Hopefully you have broken your bad habit. We now have a real AG. Sit back, relax and get ready its going to happen

Sounds like a plan! But where does the Grand Jury come in with an indictment? With the Enron 20 year singer? Or higher up the chain?

In my opinion, a serious look at the Floyd case reveals lawfare coordination between DC and MN officials and should be looked at as a conspiracy to convict the police officers and deprive them of their rights to a fair trial and an impartial jury. This injustice must not be ignored.

Damn! This may be the best article I've read in years! If I understand Prof. Eastman:

Everyone from local clerks to the SOS, the corrupt judge and Gov Solis could serve 20 years for their involvement in the persecution of Tina Peters.

Everyone from Clinesmith to "whistleblower" Charmelo to Weisman to Comey to Obama and hundreds in between, could do 20 years for Russiagate!

Everyone from the cops that killed Babbitt and Boyland, to Liz Cheney to the many DC Judges and prosecutors, to Garland and Biden could do 20 years for J6!

This is better than Christmans morning when I was 10 years old!

I appreciate this piece, Julie, especially considering that this ENRON statute (Section 1512 (c)) was used illegally to prosecute/persecute those innocent souls who dared to approach the US Capitol on J6. However, I believe that Mr. Eastman has devised an ingenious use of 1512 (c) to go after the perpetrators of the unconstitutional lawfare waged against President Trump. And, as I understand, conspiracy doesn't have a statute-of-limitations placed upon the conspirators, does it?

There is no statute of limitations as long as the conspiracy is ongoing.

I suppose all we can do is trust the current DOJ in their quest to impanel and to present evidence to that grand jury in Florida.

Excellent article. RICO as used by Rudy Giuliani changed NYC. Later abused by the Lawfare crowd. I love the irony to run the play in reverse. Also, thanks for the witness intimidation aspect since I remember when low-level mobsters were showing up weekly in trunks of parked sedans.

RICO was designed for the Mob, but maybe it can tee up the Deep State. These folks are so much more powerful than a Mafia boss that creativity seems worthwhile.

Ironic that this Enron statute was used against J6 ers and then DJT by the people who should have charged themselves. Another place to make conspiracy charges is to look at the DAs in blue states, esp. Keith Ellison, Rob Bonta, L. James. These people, as James herself revealed, have been meeting together and with others, like Holder, Matthew Graves, etc, to coordinate and strategize their corrupt lawfare to destroy our POTUS and take over our government.

Great point! The lawyer working for Fani Willis went to the White House more than once.

Let’s hope this plays out. I did see someone comment on X that the burn bags that were not burned and discovered by Director Patel may have been stored by someone who wanted them to be found and not destroyed. I found that possibility intriguing because I always wondered why the culprits wouldn’t have destroyed the evidence of their criminality.

Maybe they were hidden by someone who wanted them to ultimately be found. More likely they were accumulated to more efficiently destroy them (bulk destruction rather than piece=meal), and then were simply forgotten.

love it - thank you John Eastman!

Could 1512(c) be used to threaten prison time to those who concealed/destroyed the documents and deposition evidence collected by the show-trial Jan 6 committee?

Vero's avatar

Yes, great idea. Biden gave them that blanket pardon, though.

Jon S's avatar

therein lies the problem.....the crimes and how to prosecute them seem obvious...yet nothing is ever done...the criminals go unpunished.....Maybe Julie Kelly should be AG......The fault dear Brutus is not in our stars, but in ourselves....

sandy picard's avatar

But we have a new acting who is moving cases out the door that have been veging on Blondi's desk. I'm trying to think positive these days.

Jon S's avatar

you are more optimistic than I......not much good has occurred since Trump II in that regard..there its a lot going against truth and justice in liberal America...

1512(c) has much more accurate relevance to the Democrat lawfare as we can now see that the entire Democrat ecosystem is a skimming and fraud racket.

Great article! Would be great to see his suggestion put in practice.

By the way, both the title and the body of the piece have this typo, (Make American (sic) Great Again).

This would only work with a non-corrupt prosecutor. merrick was hardly that.

clinesmith has already been tried, and was obviously a soldier for the cause. He got suspended sentence, then was even rebarred after a "polite" interval. He can't be tried again.

And isn't 1512 affected by statutes of limitations? Virtually all of this stuff occurred more than five years ago - seemingly the standard SOL for political crimes.

Randy Hill's avatar

Mr Eastman, could members of the media be brought into a RICO case?
