Yale historian Joanne Freeman found herself utterly appalled on Tuesday when she saw that special counsel Jack Smith felt the need to request special protections for the people who will serve as jurors at former President Donald Trump's Washington D.C. trial next year.
In his filing, Smith pointed to Trump's very long history of trying to intimidate potential witnesses on social media and requested that the court "implement several of the standard measures frequently used in this District to protect the jury, and impose additional clear guidelines for use of information regarding potential jurors."
Reacting to this on Twitter, Freeman said that no one should lose sight of just how unprecedented this kind of request is regarding a former president of the United States.

Just need to recall what an unprecedented president he was and has been since to understand why this is necessary

PV2 Larry Sellnow - you really can’t believe that he will be convicted of those bogus charges. Nothing but distraction from the other side. Every time something is uncovered about the Bidens, something else is fabricated about Trump.

You know Larry, I used to think you a decent sort, but I have found out what a nasty sort you are. What a shame that you can’t have a difference of an opinion, without being so nasty. I sure am thankful that I served and retained some sense of decency.

It's not about being afraid of something, it is about advancing the Narrative. The idea is to continue to paint any opposition or questioning of the proceedings as "insurrection" as we have seen happening lately on this website.

PO1 H Gene Lawrence - it appears that a statement from Larry has been removed or deleted.

I will reiterate once again. Any current/former servicemen/women that has a soft spot in their hearts for the Orange Draft Dodger.....You Are Part Of his CULT. The only thing this Traitor cares about is Donald J Trump Sr. He has in the past made multiple threats to his loyalists/enemies. Yet Orange Mullet Head is still walking the streets. Believe this! Anyone of us accused of 91 felony counts would be held without bond. No One Is Above The Law My Arse......
