President Joe Biden vowed in November 2022 to pursue measures beyond the ballot box to prevent former President Donald Trump’s reelection. That sensational pledge preceded an eruption of extraordinary legal assaults on Trump, with one pivotal date emerging that undercuts Biden’s denial of White House involvement.
That day, November 18, 2022, the significance of which is previously unreported, has emerged as a catalyst in the startling timeline of events unleashing lawfare against Trump in jurisdictions across the country.
Three events took place on November 18 either at or with the knowledge and involvement of the White House that directly led to a remarkable escalation of the lawfare launched against Trump.
The Trigger – Biden’s Promise to Block Trump
In a November 9, 2022, press conference, one day after midterm elections and just days after Trump signaled an eminent announcement of his candidacy, Biden was asked about the prospects of Trump running against him in 2024.
Biden’s response shocked the room.
“We just have to demonstrate that he will not take power, if he does run, making sure he, under legitimate efforts of our Constitution, does not become the next president again [sic],” Biden said.
Biden’s astonishing pledge to use constitutional means to block Trump’s reelection and not defeat him at the ballot box appears to have set in motion efforts across the country. His vow directly predated a flurry of legal activity, with the three critical developments taking place on November 18 – only nine days after Biden’s call to block Trump’s reelection.
The significance of the three events alone and the timeline that followed strongly suggest a coordination of efforts by the Biden White House, which resulted in Trump being charged in Manhattan, Florida, DC, and Atlanta:

Events that day played a significant role in the revival of a seemingly dead business records investigation, the spawning of multiple federal investigations led by a rogue prosecutor, and the supercharging of an election interference case, resulting in indictment after indictment raining down on Trump, costing him millions in legal fees, preventing him from traveling to campaign, and resulting in conviction on 34 counts so far in a widely panned verdict in Manhattan.
Garland Appoints Jack Smith
The most widely known of the three occurrences on November 18 was Biden’s Attorney General Merrick Garland’s announcement of the appointment of Jack Smith as special counsel, a highly unusual appointment.
Smith has a history of botching prosecutions of leading political figures and a reputation for a willingness to use broadly worded federal statutes and legally radical interpretations of the law to take out his prosecutorial targets. His public corruption victory against former Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell was overturned by the Supreme Court in a unanimous 8-0 rebuke. And his prosecution of former Democrat vice presidential nominee John Edwards resulted in an acquittal on one count and a hung jury on others. The DOJ declined to try Edwards again.
Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) has revealed the extent to which Smith was behind the targeted prosecutions of conservatives during the Obama-era IRS scandal.
Most critically, Smith is known for overaggressively pursuing his targets, often weaponizing loose interpretations of the law.
Smith’s appointment as special counsel, which many top legal minds and former U.S. Attorneys General consider unconstitutional, is highly irregular in that he was not serving in a Senate confirmed capacity at the time of his appointment. Special counsels traditionally are appointed as a Senate-confirmed official – generally a U.S. prosecutor, as in the case of Robert Hur, who was appointed by Garland to investigate Biden’s retainment of classified documents.
Before Smith’s appointment by Garland, investigations from federal prosecutors had hit a standstill. In the aftermath of January 6, 2020, DOJ tried to build a case against President Trump for seditious conspiracy. Career staff at DOJ reportedly could not develop the evidence and ultimately chose not to pursue a case against Trump.
Smith immediately changed the DOJ’s course.
His pursuit of highly irregular cases in Florida centered around Trump’s retention of classified documents and in Washington regarding alleged election interference is consistent with his reputation.
In Florida, Smith pursued charges against Trump of violations of the Espionage Act instead of statute regarding unlawful retention of classified documents, as is typical. And in Washington, Smith charged Trump with attempting to overturn the election in an unprecedented approach of which Trump and many legal experts have accused Smith of intentionally misreading statutes to justify his prosecution.
Both unconventional cases have hit significant walls leading to multiple postponements. Neither are likely to be decided before the election.
Smith’s wife, Katy Chevigny, has a history of donating to Joe Biden and other Democrats, such as far-left Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI). She also helped produce Michelle Obama’s documentary, Becoming.
Nathan Wade Spends Day at White House
While Garland made his announcement at an administration podium, an incredibly unusual and lengthy meeting was taking place in the White House counsel’s office.
Nathan Wade, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’s top county prosecutor, spent eight hours in the White House counsel’s office on November 18, a meeting that came to light during discovery in the Fulton County case when lawyers for Mike Roman, one of Trump’s codefendants, received Wade’s billing records.
Wade’s billing records reveal he was present at the White House in his official capacity. He billed the State of Georgia for his expenses during the trip, even billing $250 an hour for eight hours at the White House.
That level of access to the White House is remarkable. There are approximately 2,400 elected county prosecutors, very few of whom ever receive an invitation to set foot on White House grounds, much less meet for hours with high-powered White House attorneys.
Wade was hired by Fulton County solely to assist with the Trump investigation. It is unknown what other official business he could have had meeting with the White House in his official capacity.
Wade played a critical role in reviving Willis’s stagnant prosecution of Trump, which appeared to accelerate with renewed vigor after Wade’s November 18 meeting.
Only days after that meeting, on December 15, 2022, the Fulton County special purpose grand jury issued a seal report recommending indictments against Trump and his codefendants. Trump was indicted months later in April 2023.
Wade resigned from the Trump case earlier this year after details of his personal relationship with Willis emerged.
That case has been postponed indefinitely after multiple issues, include Willis and Wade’s relationship and alleged coverup.
Michael Colangelo Leaves Biden Administration for Manhattan DA’s Office
The final of the three events of November 18 might be the most significant for Trump and has been the least understood until now.
How can that imbecile Biden talk a bout the U.S. Constitution while he is violating it at the same time?!
I’ve read that Hitler didn’t issue written orders for many of his top priorities, like the “Final Solution”. His lackeys knew what Hitler wanted and they acted in his interests without orders. This is how Obama operated and, no doubt, since Obama is running this comedy of errors, the same holds true with Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden. But, with Hitler, he made public comments on what he wanted accomplished and expounded on those topics in private. No doubt, Obama and Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden have done he same.
So, Herr Obergruppenfuhrer Garland doesn’t need a written order to pursue fascist lawfare strategies against Trump. They all know “Abuse the justice system to protect Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden from his own failures.” All the evidence confirms this.
