The Biden Justice Department has not only failed to indict Hunter Biden on well-known crimes but has intentionally let the statute of limitations lapse on 2014–15 crimes that implicate President Biden in corruption schemes. Yet the same Biden DOJ, through its special counsel Jack Smith, has proposed a January 2, 2024, date for trial of the most recent indictment it has brought against Donald Trump. That would be the third indictment the Biden DOJ has filed against the former president in the last two months.
The New York Times reports on special counsel Jack Smith’s proposal, as well as his rationalization: Even though a speedy trial is a due-process right of the accused, which the defense may waive in the interest of having a fair trial, Smith claims “the public” — by which he means, the Biden Justice Department — has what the prosecutor argues is a higher interest in the swift administration of justice.
