It’s pretty obvious what the government is trying to do here. It’s trying to manufacture an “a priori” case against the defendant. Trying to justify its discriminatory actions against him; which are race-, national origin- and culture-based. It wouldn’t surprise me at all that gang tattoos were applied to his otherwise bare arms and hands while he was imprisoned, to match those that were photoshopped onto photographs disseminated to the press. Attorney General Bondi’s recent press conference comments about defendant should disqualify her from continuing in that office; as they were clearly over-the-top prejudicial.

Essentially, the Trump government is corrupt, tyrannical in the basic definition of the term, incompetent and ideologically driven against foreign people generally regardless their immigration status.

I wouldn’t be surprised to have him show up with obviously Sharpied “tattoos” on his arms and hands, tbh.

That must be the reason for all these delays. It takes time to manufacture “evidence”. New gang tatoos need time to heal. Jailhouse informants must memorize the script that government attorneys give them. Fake documents must be forged. It’s a logistical thing.

We disbarred F. Lee Bailey for similar kinds of shenanigans these DOJ lawyers have engaged in during this litigation. I hope all of them suffer the same fate. Bailey died without ever regaining his license.

I was going to use the phrase “Trumped up” (I capitalized it because, after all, Trump and his bodacious ideas are behind this). That this all comes from a traffic stop, that literally millions dollars are being spent to make an “example” of Mr. Garcia, cannot be a surprise. His campaign promises, to which so many apologists point, were nothing more than a smoke screen of racist intent. As many others have pointed out, consider the free pass that Trump has given to white folks from South Africa to see that it’s double edged.

I’m afraid there are too many who call themselves “Americans” who will believe Trumpistan bs.

This is also true of some who call themselves Christians.

Congrats for the factual analysis which adds a lot of value.

On the principle everyone in the world knows this is a parody of justice within a parody of government lead by a clown.

While knowing, we are lacking facts.

Expecting the next post skin !
