After a full media cycle of apoplexy and pearl-clutching, which included Andrew Weissmann appearing on MSNBC to declare “It’s the end of Trump,” CBS is now reporting there is no Defense Department memo about attacking Iran – the foundation of the media claims surrounding the leaked audio tapes from Special Counsel Jack Smith.
Worse still, and exactly as CTH previously outlined, despite the claims by CNN about how this audio would be used as the “central element” by the prosecution of Trump, the audio and mysterious memo are not part of the Special Counsel case.
..... Snip.....
(Via CBS) – The Defense Department memo on Iran — at the heart of the now-public audio recording that captured a July 2021 meeting with former President Donald Trump — is not part of the 31 counts of willful retention of national defense information charged in special counsel Jack Smith’s indictment of the former president, a source familiar with the matter confirmed to CBS News.
..... Snip.....
There never was an Iran memo document. President Trump was discussing newspaper reports, “newspapers” and stacks of “papers”, as he originally told Brett Baier. Duh.
Reminder, in an interview with Fox News’ Bret Baier on June 19, Trump said that at the meeting with the book’s publisher, he was not referring to the document itself, but newspaper articles:
“There was no document… That was a massive amount of papers and everything else talking about Iran and other things. And it may have been held up or may not, but that was not a document. I didn’t have a document per se. There was nothing to declassify. These were newspaper stories, magazine stories and articles.”

Here is the FIRST post when Conservative Treehouse came out and explained pretty clearly what was going on.....
He came back with SECOND post (your post) after CBS reported on the worthless tape, meant ONLY to attempt to control the narrative. Smith knew there was no chance of it ever appearing in a court of law because he had no “document” to back it up, so the only way he could get it out there to poison the jury pool and public opinion was to leak it, for the BS it is!!! And it has backfired on these mental midgets, quite badly, in fact......omg I cannot stop laughing, it truly is hilarious.....to the point of the men with the straight-jackets coming to take them away.....the drool on the floor must be overwhelming by now!!!! LOL
Bwahahahaha, stupendous fail. But you do have spirit, I see.

This is what team DeSantis was posting about earlier today. Now it’s being reported by @CBS_Herridge that a source in the room confirmed that Trump was not showing classified documents.
Team DeSantis is worse than the left! pic.twitter.com/LQdrdvubgo— Alex Bruesewitz 🇺🇸 (@alexbruesewitz) June 28, 2023
This story has gone onto the echo chamber, and we’ll hear it forever.
Sheeple, like my spouse and my mother in law, watch CrapNotNews, and “so they know it’s true because we saw it on The News.”
Stupidity and ignorance are contagious diseases. Common sense is not common.and while idiocy abides, my level of intolerance is peaking.
I pray that I am not alone.
So, just another in a long series of “attempted gotchas” in their never-ending agenda to “get Trump”. Just another epic FAIL, IOW.
It’s all about the optics and trying to sway public opinion against Trump at this point. Time will tell if it is working at all. Anyone with a working brain cell will know the truth, but the problem is... we have a major portion of the US population right now that appears to be brain-less. And yeah....they all vote Democrat...always...no matter what.
I have never been one of those “Trump playing 4-D Chess” people, but I enjoy entertaining the concept that he was baiting people, knowing full well that if he jiggled the bait, the stupid ones (Democrats, and even some Freepers on this thread) will bite, and bite hard.
He waits...jiggles the bait, waves the papers around pronouncing them the nuclear codes...waits...and then with a laugh, sets the hook!
No. It isn’t him playing 4-D Chess, but it isn’t inconceivable he is playing those idiots for fools, and that does make me grin a bit.
Smith’s case is weak. He has no chance - with a fair judge - to convict Trump on the Espionage Act charges. I think he may actually be trying to get Judge Cannon to toss the case or make a major dent, so he can have a RAT appeals judge move the case to D.C. or NJ
After I heard the recording I wondered that as well. Plus, I wonder who recorded it.
that last meme sounds a lot like several folks on FR who claimed tha “Trump is done- no way can he avoid conviction now”
They were so sure that it was the prison for trump or at the very least, the ruin of his political life
I believe it was part of a book that was being written about Mark Meadows..Trump had a mic one or so I hear..it was not a set up he knew he was being recorded
I too hate the infighting!
We will need every vote we can get in ‘24 and a circular firing squad isn’t going to do it.
So apparently President Trump held up a newspaper story or a magazine article that reported Milley was advising him to invade Iran. He could have declassified the actual war plans when he was President but he can't any longer. But the reports (newspaper, magazines, whatever) show that Milley wanted to invade Iran but claimed he was afraid President Trump was the one who might start a war. Milley was the one who lied, not President Trump.
But you already know that.
:-)..I just want Biden kicked out of office..so sick of seeing his disgusting face..Id be happy with either one, Trump or DeSantis, honestly both share similar views, I get both are rivals but I hate the infighting, the name calling..wish it would end they should both be on the same team
(With thanks to pookie18 for posting this image! on his LINK: Today's Toons page)
Wow. Nine Years. Still going after him. Even Nixon didn't get it this hard from the Left. But, Trump fights back.
I like that.
Can we stick to the thread topic. Thank you.
I love it.
He is one of the people I referenced in Post #26 above...:)
Of course Trump knew he was being recorded - it was an interview for a book, those are always recorded now. I’m sure he even signed a waiver allowing them to record. Trying to pretend Trump was playing 24-dimension chess is just pathetic hero worship at this point.
“ThE WaLLs ArE CloSiNG iN oN dRuMpF!!” We really got him this time!! LMAO
Im in CA, so my vote is well, worthless here but I will still vote cause its my civic duty. Notice whenever there are anti DeSantis threads I never post anything, heck I dont even read it, I just cringe cause I dont like the fighting at all, both sides share the same views but may the best man win..just hope at the end whoever wins comes together to endorse the other
