I wonder what Trump would do with the names of US spies and which one of his dictator buddies who pony up billions for such a document, this is nuts if true

 

[bustamente]

Well of course he does, all these politicians need to be audited to see where they are getting their monies from but they will never investigate themselves and that goes for both sides

Trump Has A Post-Midnight Mega Meltdown Attacking The FBI

It is clear now that Trump fully realizes how much trouble he faces. Perhaps it was the New York Times article published yesterday late in the afternoon that referenced his attorney signing off on a declaration that all materials had been returned and the seriousness with which the intelligence community was taking the security breach that launched Trump into a panic that was palpably more intense than any before. Trump not only lashed out at the FBI itself but reposted Q-anon accounts and conspiracy theories as he did.  He also crossed himself up in defense by saying that he declassified everything but then suggested evidence had been planted. Pick one, Ace.

Until Trump and his circle are actually indicted held without bail as flight risks I have absolutely no confidence anything of significance will come of this. With the insane lying outlandish lies to seed doubt strategy predictably in play as we speak why is this any different than his previous avoiding any sort of significant accountability?
 

Maybe the best we see is behind the scenes the DOJ is negotiating with Trump that if he agrees not to run for office again go quietly into the night focus his nutbars on something else of less national security risk most of this goes away or is watered down.

Justice Dept via the FBI have the physical evidence in their hands, clearly proving that Trump has committed 2 or 3 felonys.   If they can't deep six him, with this........

here is a nightmare scenario:

Trump charged, pleads not guilty, while contesting the charges, runs again, wins, with aid of gerrymandering, fraud, and crackpot American voters.

Looking at the people around him.... criminals, fraudsters traitors, and lunatics, all liars.

horrifying.

I'm not leaving Gab."

interesting article, frightening.

Many have speculated over the past few years that the GOP nutbars and Trump would be willing to resort to literally any measures to hold onto power and reshape America into the dystopian image their diseased minds hold. Now it has become crystal clear that this has come to pass. America is teetering on edge of becoming a fascist dictatorship to the thunderous applause of the right wing and the  of the naiveté  center-left.

Team Putin Airs Insane Offer to ‘Help’ America and ‘Save’ Trump

The gracious proposals include placing Donald Trump under the protection of Moscow’s security agency—and moving homeless American children to Russia.

Trump Floats Yet Another Excuse: The Mar-a-Lago Docs Were Privileged!

Former President Donald Trump just cannot stop talking about the FBI raid at Mar-a-Lago, acknowledging on Sunday that the FBI did take stacks of boxes but demanding the documents be returned because they were protected by either executive or attorney-client privilege.

The claim added two new excuses to his and his supporters’ ever-evolving list of reasons as to why the raid was unlawful, inappropriate, fruitless, overly intrusive, no big deal, or a mix of all five.

“Oh great! It has just been learned that the FBI, in its now famous raid of Mar-a-Lago, took boxes of privileged ‘attorney-client’ material, and also ‘executive’ privileged material, which they knowingly should not have taken,” Trump wrote on Truth Social Sunday morning, almost a week after the raid.

“By copy of this TRUTH, I respectfully request that these documents be immediately returned to the location from which they were taken. Thank you!”

Trump and his acolytes have offered a Rolodex of reasons to prove the president’s supposed innocence, many of which were increasingly less rooted in reality as they tried to blame President Joe Biden and the Department of Justice for a political attack.

“I sort of like the fact that he’s continuing to talk,” former U.S. Attorney Joyce Vance told MSNBC on Sunday. “I bet the people at DOJ do too because he’s going through a shifting array of potential defenses and as soon as one fails, he’s on to something new.”

Trump’s children initially stated the FBI wouldn’t find anything, and that Trump returned everything he was supposed to earlier this year. Once news broke that the National Archives knew of additional material still at his Florida estate, Trump claimed officials only needed to ask for them back and he would have happily complied (despite Trump being issued a subpoena). Trump lawyers then began to float ideas that the FBI planted evidence at the compound, only to turn around and claim that Trump probably declassified—or could have declassified—the material.

Deflect and Confuse

There were no boxes at Mar-a-Lago
Other people brought those boxes to Mar-a-Lago
Archives could have retrieved the boxes anytime they wanted
All the documents in the boxes were declassified
I was protecting the boxes for the Archives
The boxes were planted by the FBI
Obama had more boxes
The documents should not have been classified in the first place
What search?

Trump Doubles Down On Vicious FBI Attacks Over Mar-A-Lago Search

Former President Donald Trump intensified his bashing of the FBI on social media over the weekend with his own comments and those of QAnon followers calling the bureau a “criminal enterprise,” “corrupt,” seditious and abusive.

Trump, in likely the ugliest public attack on federal law enforcers by any president or former president in American history, launched a fresh tirade on his Truth Social platform late Saturday into Sunday to blast the FBI’s search last week of his Mar-a-Lago resort to collect boxes of White House documents that should have been surrendered to the National Archives when he left office.
Trump insisted that the FBI has a “long and unrelenting history of being corrupt.” He also called the search a “sneak attack on democracy,” and referred in a post to “great simmering anger” over the action, which he characterized as a “break in.”
Trump also reposted messages from others that included references to QAnon conspiracy theories.

One message reposted by Trump last week was written by user “We The Pepe,” referring to the white supremacist icon Pepe the frog, which has been branded a racist, anti-Semitic hate symbol by the Anti-Defamation League.

Another user Trump reported was “WWG1WGA,” an abbreviation for “where we go one, we go all,” a well known QAnon slogan.

Will Cain Cites Richard Nixon To Defend Trump: 'If A President Does It, Then It Is Not Illegal'
 

In an effort to bolster a Fox News report of “sources” saying that the documents seized were covered by attorney-client privilege and that Trump’s lawyers previously certified that no classified documents were at the property, Cain cited a declaration from Nixon.
Several sets of classified documents were removed from Mar-a-Lago, including those marked top secret and mandated to remain at a secure government facility, according to the search warrant inventory list. Trump has asserted, without evidence, that he personally declassified the documents before leaving office.

In an interview with William Bennett, who served as education secretary under Ronald Reagan and drug czar under George H.W. Bush, Fox News host Cain said:

“When it comes to classified documents, famously, President Nixon said, that if the president does it, that it is not illegal. Is that not truly the standard when it comes to classified documents? The president has the ability to at any time declassify anything.”

Bennett agreed, but said “there’s a procedure that the president must follow.” He hewed to GOP claims of federal subterfuge, saying “the FBI is not what the FBI should be,” and hoped the search warrant affidavit might clarify the reason for the raid.
