Signs grow of Trump subpoenas and indictments in New York and Georgia
Washington Examiner ^ | 05/17/2021 | Paul Bedard

Legal experts are picking up “signals” that the Trump team is bracing for subpoenas or indictments in the New York City and Georgia investigations into the former president.

Washington, D.C.-based public interest lawyer John Banzhaf, who prompted the election interference investigation in Georgia, said the case is heating up. He noted that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is struggling for documents from Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, who is said to be “lawyering up.”

Meanwhile, Willis has hired a special prosecutor who had a role in the Whitewater case against former President Bill Clinton.

Banzhaf also noted that in New York, Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr. has added a forensic accountant in his investigation of old Trump financial deals and taxes.

In both cases, the political geography doesn’t favor former President Donald Trump. In New York, said Banzhaf, Vance is not running for another term and “just might want to end his already-illustrious career with a bang.”

And in Georgia, Banzhaf said that Willis “is a Democrat in a heavily Democratic county. Therefore, most members of a grand jury, and of any criminal trial juries in this county, are likely to be very unfriendly to Trump, especially now that he has lost a lot of his clout and his ability to reach out easily on social media with most of his followers.”

Over the weekend, Banzhaf also pointed to other legal troubles potentially for Trump, with the General Services Agency agreeing to turn over records requested by House Transportation Chairman Peter DeFazio on the Trump International Hotel lease of the Old Post Office Building. And Trump’s former White House lawyer has agreed to appear before a congressional investigating committee.

“So there's ever-growing evidence that the noose is tightening around Trump, and that a criminal indictment against him

This is not only about destroying PDJT, it is a warning to anyone else who runs for and is elected to the Office of President that they had better not step out of line while in office.

I think Liz Cheney has unwittingly made it clear that he hasn’t lost clout.

There is Justice and then there is the Law. They do not go hand in clove. Most of the time they get confused. “If we can’t punish the guilty, then we punish the innocent.”

This is the start of the counter stories/action to the fraud investigations in AZ, WI and MI.

When those fraud cases bust, they will arrest Trump.

Maybe this is why they keep warning us about white supremacism.

They don’t fear white supremacism. They fear broad-spectrum righteous indignation.

If that ever happens, the media/Democrats will have a REAL “insurrection” on their hands.

They can do something.

Boycott NYS and GA.

And I say that as someone who lives in NYS.

Don’t come there or here. Don’t buy anything from either state. Don’t vacation. Don’t use the airports. If you live in either state and can do it, go across state lines to buy what you need.

People can do plenty. If they have the will.

Eventually. Eventually, the sword is mightier than the pen. As the hands that use the pen become unusable themselves. It’s just a matter of getting to a point where using the sword becomes as attractive as maintaining what remains of a system.

America is occupied. It is occupied by the brutal forces of the democrat party, media, Chicoms, the never Trump GOP and SA street thugs BLM and Antifa.

These people and groups compose The Party. Historically, authoritarian regimes use fictitious tales of treason as the pretext for crushing their political rivals and cowing their citizens into submission. Propaganda organs parrot the regime’s party line while less compliant media are censored.

Having pulled off the greatest electoral con and coup in our history, The Party will never relinquish power.

In Occupied America:

• Donald Trump is an unperson. Make an example of him. Humiliate him and his wonderful family. Imprison him. Set an example. No more Trumps.

• Government schools conduct daily Two Minutes Hate at images of Donald Trump and his Deplorables.

• Public denunciations of MAGA. Grovel to The Party or become, like Donald Trump, an unperson.

• Free speech and press are conditional on the speech and press. All things MAGA are prohibited.

• The first purpose of federal agencies is to destroy political opponents, the unrepentant Trumpsters.

In Occupied America.
