Trump likely to be criminally charged in DOJ election probe along with other former White House officials, Obama AG Holder says
CNBC ^ | Aug 4 2022 | Dan Mangan

Former President Donald Trump “probably” will be indicted on criminal charges along with officials in his White House as part of a Justice Department investigation of efforts to reverse the 2020 election results nationally, ex-Attorney General Eric Holder said in an interview Thursday.

But Holder suggested that before that happens, Trump is more likely to first face possible criminal charges from the Georgia state prosecutor who is investigating attempts by Trump and his allies to undo President Joe Biden’s win there in 2020.

Holder, who led the Justice Department during the Obama administration, made those predictions during an interview with the SiriusXM Urban View satellite radio show Joe Madison The Black Eagle.

Madison asked Holder whether he would seek to indict Trump if he still were attorney general.

Holder demurred, saying he did not have access to all the material that the Justice Department currently has regarding Trump.

But he told Madison that, based on his experience as a federal prosecutor who filed public corruption cases against elected officials, as “more evidence is elicited, you will see people start to cut deals.”

″My guess is that by the end of this process, you’re going to see indictments involving high-level people in the White House, you’re going to see indictments against people outside the White House who were advising them with regard to the attempt to steal the election,” said Holder.

“And I think ultimately you’re probably going to see the president, former president of the United States indicted as well,” he said.

The Justice Department reportedly is presenting evidence and testimony before two federal grand juries in Washington, D.C., one of which is eyeing a plan by Trump’s lawyers and others to have so-called fake electors claim that the then-Republican incumbent won the election in their individual states.

America, where the President doesn’t have 1A and 4A rights. By tonight, the leftist media will say he has no 5A rights.

Hunter committed child sex abuse and Iread that Jill wrote in an email to Hunter that “We will shove your story down her (the mother’s) Fing throat”

That was Joe’s own daughter in law and grandchild she was talking about.

For all of it there is no criminal investigation.

I don't know. I do know that they are willing to completely destroy the United States to keep him from being President. They executed a Coup to get him out of the White House. There was no way in Hell that Lying Joe Biden got more votes legally and legitimately than President Trump did. Hell with Liz Cheney and the horse she rode in on.

If they coulda done this, they woulda done this. And just about anything that comes out of the Mar-A-Lago raid is going to be considered inadmissible as evidence since the warrant was not properly limited. Warrants have to be specific in what they are seeking and where- You can’t get a warrant to locate and seize a car and look in a safe for that car. The fact that they were searching Melania’s clothing, and probably all other areas of the estate is going to be telling. Also sounds like the cameras on the estate were not turned off, so there is going to be video of what happened. Moreover, Merrick Garland is compromised in all of this. He was up for a SCOTUS seat and was removed from consideration by Trump (thank god, right?). He can’t possibly be unbiased and should have turned the search approval over to someone else (recused himself from the case\investigation)

WASHINGTON, D.C.- According to a report from Fox Metro News, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) appeared on “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” where he broke the news that DNC law firm Perkins Coie has an “FBI workspace” in its D.C offices. On Twitter, Gaetz wrote:

“BREAKING: In response to a letter sent by Rep. Matt Gaetz and @Jim_Jordan, Perkins Coie, the legal arm of the DNC and Hilary Clinton, admits they have been operating an FBI workspace in their Washington, D.C. office since 2012.”

The question is, even if convicted does that Make Trump ineligible to run for President and get re-elected ???

The Constitutional requirements for President do not say anything about a clean criminal record other than conviction in the Senate during impeachment. Eugene Debs ran for President while in prison in 1920.

If re-elected, Trump’s first official act could be to pardon himself.

Given the logic of these corruptocrats and DEMONRATS, resisting a fraudulent election MUST be considered a crime.

They thought it was a crime for Trump to investigate the crooked activities of a vice president who leveraged tax payer funded foreign aid to get a prosecutor fired who was investigating his crack addled son for peddling influence with the White House while that same son was being bribed by a tainted foreign energy company ALSO being investigated by the fired prosecutor.

One that was worthy of IMPEACHMENT!! So none of this should surprise us in the least.
