The Georgia judge overseeing the historic racketeering case against former President Donald Trump and more than a dozen of his allies and supporters is apparently not without a sense of humor.
In a scathing order issued Friday, Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee denied Donald Trump RICO co-defendant Kenneth Chesebro’s request to dismiss the indictment against him. Chesebro, one of the authors of the so-called “coup memo” that purported to provide a legal basis for Trump to stay in power despite losing the 2020 presidential election, argued that the office of District Attorney Fani Willis failed to file what he tried to argue was a required document before bringing the case.

..."And if this parrot of a motion is somehow not yet dead, the defendant has failed to establish how Special ADA Wade’s actions resulted in prejudice, i.e., how his assignment singlehandedly changed any specific actions taken during the investigation or resulted in the true bill of indictment,” McAfee wrote. He added that Chesebro similarly failed to show that his constitutional rights had been violated “sufficient to justify outright dismissal.”
In the bit known as the “dead parrot” sketch, a dissatisfied pet shop customer tries to return a would-be pet parrot as the store clerk repeatedly denies that the bird is no longer living."...
