The leftists still have more indictments to tie Trump up. It is unbelievable that some on the left don’t believe that this is a witch hunt.
I believe DOJ is trying to transfer this case out of Florida and up to DC. That’s a location where any potential jury already knows Trump is guilty, they just need to know what the charge is.
The most egregious aspect of this indictment was the fact it was used to cover yet another Joe Biden scandal; namely the 5 million dollar bribe he took.
Or maybe the most egregious aspect is the fact that boxes and boxes of classified docs were hanging out in Joe’s garage and in his ‘vette where Hunter and his chinese agent friends had years of free access.
Yet this is ignored while they focus on Mar-A-Lago documents.
The lawyers of DC are really pissed-off that a businessman would have the audacity to think he could stick his nose into, what they consider to be, their business.. Which just happens to be robbing, stealing, lying, cheating and pulling every underhanded trick known to man...better known as the art of "politics."
As long as Trump continues to "Endeavor to Persevere" the DC lawyers are going to be on him like ticks on a hound...
all those boxes and only “hundreds” were marked classified. am i reading that right? do we know if doc/secret and spoken about on tape, supposedly, was one of many handed back? what do we really know???
The “case” is creating buzz because of an “audio” that may or may not say what it has been purported to say in the media.
What has given it steam is that guys like Dershowitz of Lolita Express fame who I don’t trust and Turley who cashes checks from the Evil Media Empire of Rupert Murdoch but to his credit has been calling things straight in recent months, have made dire comments based on the audio being all that it has been purported to be.
As with all things Trump, the reports of a slam bang smoking gun appear to have been highly exaggerated.
I guess it is just another of example of what was once looked down upon as sensationalism journalism.
But calling the coverage of Trump sensational journalism is inaccurate because there is no journalism to it.
There really is no such as journalism any more.
If there were we’d be reading a hundred times more about the real crimes of the Bidens and very little about the political accusations against Trump.
Accuse, attack, accuse, attack.
Sucks up his time, money, makes him look bad to some.
The idea is to just keep grinding on him, keep the negative news/media flowing (the lemmings feel there must be something to it), tie up him and his people spending countless hours dealing with this nonsense rather than his campaign, have him throw his money into defending himself rather than his campaign...
It’s political crap, BUT the folks today rather than getting nauseated and rejecting the demagogues peddling this junk, respond to it. They’re lemmings. Look at Covid, that was largely election politics as well and you see idiots walking around in wide open spaces with their entire family masked up to this day! Do I really need to tell you how good CNN/MSNBC watching folks like that are going to vote?
These vapid accusations aren’t worth the paper they’re written or the breath they are spoken with. Just trash. BUT, it keeps him on the defensive, in REQUIRES him to respond and that puts him in a negative light with the “news” gossiping on it 24/7.
This is a win/win for the dems.
If Trump is convicted, well and good. If he prevails, it goes a long way for nullifying the sure-to-come cases against Biden and the other dems who are actually guilty of these crimes. Yes, neither Biden or Hillary were president at the time but, in the dems eyes, they are not guilty of anything, anyway.
How about some Republican legislative proposals to keep this stuff from happening?
-The indictment does not align with the elements of the statute charged.
-Trump's access to presidential records is protected by the Presidential Records Act.
-The other crimes listed in the indictment are process crimes, which the author believes are not valid considering the absence of a crime being investigated.
Classified documents shall be protected.
But, “no reasonable prosecutor” would bring charges against Hillary!
There is no special prosecutor working on Biden or even Pence.
If there were, I would say, yes, Trump may be guilty. Otherwise it is just case of selected prosecution.
No way Trump can get a fair trial just via DOJ’s disingenuous behavior during the investigative stage. Most of the “evidence” should be thrown out along with a very loud public apology by the DOJ to Trump's lawyers.
Trump’s indictment is going to the Supreme Court. There it will fall under the Presidential Records Act.
But even if it is under the Espionage Act, there’s no claim that Trump “willfully communicates, delivers, transmits” the secret information he held.
DOJ/FBI Election Interference. For crook Biden.
My thoughts are on why isn’t there an indictment on Biden he’s the one in illegal passion of stolen classified documents.
Bonus round: Hunter is still out of jail as well as the rest
of the syndicate.
Am I the only one who thought it sounded like Trump was actually surprised about the contents of some of the documents, that he was learning about them for the first time? Did Trump personally pack all of those boxes of documents, or was much of it done by staff? If so, who? Did someone put problematic materials in the boxes as part of a set-up to get Trump?
Of course its weak. Its lawfare.
The first Trump Impeachment was shockingly weak.
The second Trump Impeachment was shockingly weak.
The NYC Stormy Daniels indictment was shockingly weak.
Why shouldn’t the Classified Documents indictment be shockingly weak?
.
Nah. He’s toast. F. U. Barr said so.
To me the relevant part of the law is this,
“which information the possessor has reason to believe could be used to the injury of the United States or to the advantage of any foreign nation, “
Intent matters.
