In the recent developments revolving around the ongoing investigation into President Biden, it seems things are going poorly for the team. This has been linked to the financial benefits his family seems to be receiving from certain political actions, with efforts made to conceal such activities. A significant concern lies with Hunter Biden's involvement with barista.
Recent events have led to Leslie Wolf appearing behind closed doors, raising several questions. Even though a recent poll showed that half of Americans support the inquiry and 70% believe the president has acted illegally or unethically, it appears as though such inquiries are being hindered. There are hints that Wolf might still be working under directives from the Department of Justice regarding how much she can disclose about the handling of the case.
A substantial issue is that the Justice Department permitted some initial felonies to run out their statute of limitations. Whistleblowers claimed they had tabled an agreement that would have allowed the extension of these timeframes, but for reasons unknown, David Weiss permitted this expiration. Legal professionals are left baffled as they're unable to imagine a justification for allowing felonies to expire mid-investigation.
Simultaneously, the Special Counsel, Jack Smith, is allegedly working to expedite the case involving former President Donald Trump to the U.S. Supreme Court. The court has been requested to receive the response from Trump's team by December 20th.
There's speculation as to whether the court feels pressured by this timeline. Although a possible conviction for Trump would not impact his eligibility to run for office or serve as president, the court generally prefers to have a court of appeals give input on unique questions such as these. Consequently, they might decline to sidestep the usual process, instead opting to adhere to regular order, potentially leading to a delay in the trial.
Smith seems to be determined to complete the trial before the upcoming election, leading to suggestions that he might have a vested interest in this timeline. This unusual court scenario is leading to critical discussion regarding the potential motivations behind Smith's actions. It has also highlighted the possible existential threats faced by the Special Counsel in their prosecution efforts. Ultimately, the emerging consensus is an urgency to conclude the matter before the pending election.
