Scott Lamely Hopes Andy McCarthy’s Take Buttresses His Own Insipid One… It. Does. Not.

I do not intend to spend many electrons on what a guy who thinks the US president is a king… thinks.

US Presidents are… pretty much the opposite of kings. [We actually held a little tea party / set of skirmishes… to resolve that… it was in the Hartford Courant, and such.]

Anyhoo — just because this guy McCarthy is the favored establishment GOP talking head on matters criminal… means very little — in fact, perhaps less than zero, even if he is not a Trump fan. [He’s not.]

His stepping off point is that he (in direct opposition to the Supremes) thinks the president is bound by nearly no “ordinary” law. But 18 USC § 793 was written specifically to apply to… yep… presidents.

It has never been challenged as unconstitutional, primarily because we the people… never had need of it — to use it against any current- or former- president, for stealing nuclear weapons secrets. [That statement alone refutes all either or both of these two (plus John Hinderaker and Steve Hayward) wrote — or will ever… write, in opposition.]

Thus, assuming that 18 USC § 793 is constitutional (it is, else-wise no traitorous, corrupt president could ever be reined in), all of McCarthy’s remaining claims amount to just sound and fury, signifying… nothing.

McCarthy is right about one thing, though — any salient documents recovered by these subpeonas and/or warrants, WILL be evidence in both the J6 matters, and Thomas Barrack’s September 2022 felony trial. Stay tuned.

There is noting Tangerine (or Barrack) can do about that.

See ya’ Scottie.
