Darrell Castle talks about the criminal indictment of Donald Trump in Miami this week, specifically regarding the statement of prosecutor Jack Smith and why that statement is all wrong.
JACK SMITH’S STATEMENT IS ALL WRONG
Hello, this is Darrell Castle with today’s Castle Report. This is Friday the 16th day of June in the year of our Lord 2023. I will be talking about the criminal indictment of Donald Trump in Miami earlier this week. I wish I didn’t have to talk about it but I do because it is the most important story of this week. Primarily, I will be talking about the statement of prosecutor Jack Smith to justify his actions and why that statement is all wrong.
I’m going to approach this story differently from the Soros prosecution story because it is federal and the real issue is what is happening to our country because of the obvious weaponization of the Department of Justice to attack a political opponent. When I was in law school, I was taught that it is highly unethical and a disciplinary offense for a lawyer in a civil case to threaten criminal charges to intimidate his opponent thus sweetening his civil amount. Here we have a case where the entire power of the politicians, bureaucrats, and other apparatchiks of the deep state could not win fairly at the polls so they decided to use their immense power in a criminal way.
This use of the Department of Justice to prosecute and possibly take away freedom from a political opponent reflects on all of us. Trump’s right when he says they are out to get me but they are really coming for you, I’m just in the way. Whether or not Trump was just pontificating, this misuse of what used to be justice, but is now just a weapon, is a threat to all of us. If I could get only one thing across in this report it would be that whatever side of the political divide you are on, this is a threat to all of us. It is a serious threat to the system and whether Donald Trump may have committed some jot and tittle violation of some records law is irrelevant to what is really happening.
Jack Smith, the federal prosecutor in Miami, made the following statement about the indictment: “Our nation’s commitment to the rule of law sets an example for the world. We have one set of laws in this country, and they apply to everyone.”
That statement puts Mr. Smith in the category of blatant liar or ignorant fool, but he said it with a straight face. With his background and education, I seriously doubt that he is ignorant. He does have a history of prosecuting political opponents criminally on his interpretation of an obscure statute. He was reversed 9-0 by the U.S. Supreme Court for his pursuit of the Governor of Virginia. Let me give you a short list of how Mr. Smith is very wrong about the rule of law in America.
The obvious problem with Mr. Smith’s assertion is that the whole world can clearly see how the deep state has sought to influence elections by using the law criminally against Donald Trump. Thanks to the Durham Report we know that persecution of Trump started even before he was elected President. The Hillary Clinton campaign with the full knowledge of Ms. Clinton and then President Barack Obama invented a pack of lies in an effort to steal the 2016 presidential election. No one has been and probably never will be prosecuted for this offense against the American people, and Mr. Trump.
Their plan was to portray Trump as a Russian agent and thus deny him and the American people the office of president. It didn’t work, but being totally corrupt people, they weaponized the FBI, CIA, and all the other alphabet agencies under their control. Law enforcement at the highest level was corrupted and used as a weapon against a political opponent. They used false information and complete lies manufactured by the corrupt FBI to spy on Trump and his campaign staff. All that had to be terribly damaging and distracting to candidate Trump but it still wasn’t enough and he was elected.
