BREAKING: ANOTHER LEAK: Washington DC Grand Jury to Indict Trump on Espionage Act, Obstruction Charges

ANOTHER LEAK!

The Washington DC grand jury hearing evidence in Jack Smith’s classified documents case against Trump is going to indict the former president on the Espionage Act and obstruction, according to a leak to The Independent.

The Florida grand jury on Thursday indicted Trump on at least 7 charges.

..... Snip......

The Independent has learned that prosecutors are ready to ask grand jurors to approve an indictment against Mr Trump for violating a portion of the US criminal code known as Section 793, which prohibits “gathering, transmitting or losing” any “information respecting the national defence”.

The use of Section 793, which does not make reference to classified information, is understood to be a strategic decision by prosecutors that has been made to short-circuit Mr Trump’s ability to claim that he used his authority as president to declassify documents he removed from the White House and kept at his Palm Beach, Florida property long after his term expired on 20 January 2021.

That section of US criminal law is written in a way that could encompass Mr Trump’s conduct even if he was authorised to possess the information as president because it states that anyone who “lawfully having possession of, access to, control over, or being entrusted with any document …relating to the national defence,” and “willfully communicates, delivers, transmits or causes to be communicated, delivered, or transmitted or attempts to communicate, deliver, transmit or cause to be communicated, delivered or transmitted the same to any person not entitled to receive it, or willfully retains the same and fails to deliver it on demand to the officer or employee of the United States entitled to receive it” can be punished by as many as ten years in prison.

Rapin' Bill Clinton committed felony perjury in the face of a federal judge.

He spent ZERO seconds in prison.

It won’t hold up on appeal. This will take years of course.

The Constitutional republic ends with a whimper. This is the end of America. It was wonderful while it lasted.

Now we are no different than any other jack-booted tin pot criminal gangster dictatorship.

If there is no unrest, then gun confiscation is unavoidable and then unrest will be impossible.

The tenacity of our benevolent communist rulers in imposing more & more tyranny is unmatched by those seeking (supposedly) to protect our Constitutional freedoms & liberties...

Stinking communist bastards continue to run roughshod over the servile & indolent Aamerican sheeple...

There are no limits to tyranny...
There is no end in sight!

Conservatives seem to have other ideas other than saving the republic.

They still have room in the DC Lubyanka for those who wish to defy the ruling junta.

The CHOICE is a simple one.

Who do you trust?

Trump or the shadow gubmint which has never stopped hounding him.

Deep State is very very afraid of the Orange man and The American People.

The swamp tells you who they fear. The other candidates should suspend their campaigns. Are they so stupid to realize that they are next?

This world has no justice, especially when led by weak, sickly men.

As you posted today, a bullet ridden stolen car is sitting up the street from me today. The cops don't care. Like six holes in one side and four exiting on the other. Cars don't afford you much sheet metal anymore. They are almost like tin foil with crusty paint. I think it's easier to break into a car now with a good pair of tin shears and a box cutter.

As my sheriff neighbor says, " We're too busy handing overdoses, family disputes, armed robbery, and murders" to respond to lower level offenses.

I asked him why they have to respond to overdoses? He said that gets top priority to keep the ambulance crews safe from the bystanders who would beat them and steal the stuff from the ambulances. (So I would leave the drug victim die)

DeSantis should declare Florida a sanctuary state for President Trump. No Feds allowed. Offer up the National Guard and Sheriffs for President Trump's protection.

The latest of their efforts that have been going on since 2015. They can’t get away with JFK-ing him (yet) so we get this.

The Devil take them all.

“this will be a one party Govt rule country”

It’s worked SO well for CA, IL, NY, MA, etc.

The only two crooks that Durham went after were found innocent by a DC jury and a trial rigging judge. Despite incredible evidence.

Not yet, but we are at the tipping point.
