The grand jury’s final report, known as a special presentment, is expected to include a summary of its findings. It may also contain recommendations on whether anyone should be indicted, if a majority of jurors can agree.
The final decision on whether to press charges, however, ultimately rests with Willis, who would need to present evidence before a separate, regular grand jury that has the power to indict.

This is kind of flying under the radar this morning. We will see a charging decision reached on Trump very soon - in what could be the best criminal case against him.

Mar-a-Lago might be the best, but this one was also quite open and shut.  It's insane that people still claim he never committed any crimes. >

The Mar-A-Lago case is really narrow and straightforward for sure. 
But this one is open and shut, has documented criminal intent, testimony from the governor, Secretary of State, State Congress members, Trump’s own lawyers, and a dozen others - and GA state charges are particularly unfavorable for Trump’s actions.
And the cherry on top is in GA, pardons are retroactive and cannot be given by the governor.
Edit: Oops sorry for double-post. >


pardons are retroactive 

Huh? >

Pardons in GA don't work like a Presidential blanket-pardon would (a la Nixon), or even some other states.
They aren't granted by the Governor, but rather decided by the Board of Paroles and Pardons, and only after a sentence has been served. >

Is that to prevent pardons being used to correct miscarriages of justice? Because that's an extremely narrow power of pardon, as described. >

It’s always felt like the power to pardon doesn’t belong in a democracy. It feels like a holdover from the days of monarchy. 
Miscarriages of justice should be addressed, but let’s face it, pardons are political. Sometimes they are granted (usually far too late) over a miscarriage of justice, but there should be additional opportunities for retrials, if not a complete overhaul of the American justice system to something that doesn’t exhibit the gross systemic racism and classism that the current system has. 
Even minor adjustments there would be better than what we have. >

This is the one where he called the Georgia AG to “find votes” for him right? >

Yeah, he pressed the Secretary of State to “find” him the exact amount of votes needed to win, and urged “there’s nothing wrong with saying you’ve recalculated.” Pure naked inferences on recording to the chief elections officer to change the statewide vote totals in his favor, followed with a veiled threat that things will be bad for him if he doesn’t comply. Mob shit. >

So are we ever going to see this asshole in handcuffs, yes or no? >

Definitely not. The rich don't get prosecuted in America. >

Sure excited for, moments after the report is released, the inevitable comments that go, "Yeah, so it's another nothingburger! Big shock. I read all 200 pages and there's nothing there, yet again." And other disingenuous bullshit like when we got the Mueller Report, the Ukraine Call Transcript, Trump's taxes, or anything incredibly damning that the right loved to ignore. >

Mara-A-Lago better stock up on ketchup and Depends this week. >

This article shows a lack of understanding of the law. The hearing on the 24th is not to decide whether the report should be published. The order clearly says publication is mandatory. The hearing is to determine if the report constitutes a presentment, which is an accusation by the grand jury separate from any indictment by the prosecutor. >
