Corrupt Justice Department prosecutors believe they have enough evidence to bring obstruction charges against Trump.
According to The Wall Street Journal, the Trump prosecutors have seen enough evidence to bring obstruction charges, “but the path to an actual indictment is far from clear.”
Bloomberg reported:
A group of Justice Department prosecutors believe there is sufficient evidence to charge Donald Trump with obstruction of justice, but the path to an actual indictment is far from clear.
The team that’s part of the classified records probe has not yet made a formal recommendation to Attorney General Merrick Garland, who would ultimately approve or reject such a move, according to people familiar with the matter. It’s also unlikely officials would bring only obstruction charges amid several other Trump investigations into potential crimes, the people said.
In addition, while some Federal Bureau of Investigation agents oppose bringing such a politically charged case as Trump considers a 2024 presidential bid, others support action, said the people, who asked for anonymity to discuss information not yet public. Agents, however, don’t make the final decisions.
The Justice Department has publicly indicated that obstruction is part of its probe into the mishandling of classified records, noting there was probable cause for the charge in the Aug. 5 FBI search warrant application for Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate. But no charges are likely to be filed — or publicly revealed — before the Nov. 8 mid-term elections, and perhaps only after the Christmas holiday, the people said. According to leaks to the Washington Post and New York Times, Trump staffers moved Mar-a-Lago boxes after Trump was issued a subpoena in May.
The FBI contacted at least two Trump aides about the records stored at Mar-a-Lago.
P
everyone knows evidence has nothing to do with it
Impeachment v4.
“Biden’s DOJ”
Just like “Biden’s FBI”
And “Biden’s Intelligence Community”
And “Biden’s Chinese handcuffs”
And “Biden’s Corrupt Crime Family”
At least everyone on FR knows that. The rest of the country, I’m not so sure.
How likely is imprisonment?
Peach Fo Fi
and they can just tell the media all about it...
Whatever they have, they generated it themselves.
The filth won’t leave the guy alone.
Uh huh.
He must have searched his moral compass for a direction, pored over hundreds of pages to make sure they were evidence of guilt and then prayed and watched the sun come up like Mitt Romney.
Then decided “Nail Trump and destroy him.”
After 1.5 seconds.
So quit talking and do it. It’s been my experience in life that the hammer drops suddenly and without much noise beforehand. Stop meddling in the upcoming election by trying to motivate your base to actually vote for more economic decline, child porn, race privilege and gaslighting
If they could have done it, they would have.
RE: How likely is imprisonment?
My mind seems to be wandering. I’m thinking of this poem:
Concord Hymn
BY RALPH WALDO EMERSON
Sung at the Completion of the Battle Monument, July 4, 1837
By the rude bridge that arched the flood,
Their flag to April’s breeze unfurled,
Here once the embattled farmers stood
And fired the shot heard round the world.
The foe long since in silence slept;
Alike the conqueror silent sleeps;
And Time the ruined bridge has swept
Down the dark stream which seaward creeps.
On this green bank, by this soft stream,
We set today a votive stone;
That memory may their deed redeem,
When, like our sires, our sons are gone.
Spirit, that made those heroes dare
To die, and leave their children free,
Bid Time and Nature gently spare
The shaft we raise to them and thee.
It appears the FIB grabbed attorney client communications in the Mar-a-Lago raid and now are presenting that to a judge in hopes of bringing charges against PDJT. It’s amazing, and quite embarrassing, that we have judges like this who care nothing about the rule of law.
The fact that they are commenting on this at all shows that some people are breaking confidentiality laws in the DOJ. If they have sufficient evidence then impanel a Grand Jury. If not then say he is not a person under investigation. This leaking should be prosecuted.
If true then it sounds as if they are desperate since this rumor comes on the heels of trumps conditional acceptance of the j6 subpoena and also on the crest of the pro maga vote polls across the country (they are looking for a way to block the pro maga vote groundswell).
If trump endorsed candidates win in November then it would make a trump indictment problematic post November.
