The thing is that Fauxnooz and Trump himself do not know what it takes to declassify TS documents, and of course they never think to ask anyone who does know before shooting off their mouths. And they always get away with it because their audience is likewise too stupid to know what is required, and like their propagandist network, they are sure that they know everything because Geesus told them that they are right about everything, so no need to google the damn thing and actually learn anything!
I do not think Donnie can hire a real, serious, competent lawyer at this point. He has stiffed too many for anyone other that a publicity hound or a total fool to even think of representing this congenital liar.
Raphael is jealous because he doesn’t have one worth the name.
A dickless dick! Imagine that!
Christina Bobb is a true believer. She will not squeal on the Dear Leader and she will gladly go to jail for him.
It is not the lawyer. It is Skanky who lied to the court. Christina Bobb said that she had conducted an extensive investigative search of MaL for sensitive classified nuclear weapons and warheads documents and not found them. It is therefore likely that Skanky, the Family and Organization secreted them carefully or transferred them to their Saudi intelligence clients during that period.
It is on the lawyer. She did sign her name. I wonder if this was the same lawyer who signed her name to a different document that asserted that she combed through all the places for additional documents for the *rump org about their accounting and tax stuff.
The same on who said the search was taped on CCTV.
They are in the mail.
Either Trump lied to his lawyer, or the lawyer was in on the lie, too.
Another good post, but I don’t think the DNA would tell us who he or Jared sold them to.
And that’s important. Maybe even more important.
She did sign her name
And that folks is how you spot
the “Go to JAIL” job!
If you are the one signing the truthfulness and accuracy statement … and it turns out you attested to falsehoods… you be in a world of hurt and have a chance at an extended stay in the Gray-bar Hotel!
Elevator Golf Shoes…
25 strokes that never make their way on to Donald Trump’s scorecard!
TFG doxxed the FBI agents on the search warrant
So he gets revenge via releasing names (AKA obstruction) and then calls Garland to cover his fat ass (Oh dearie me, what can I do?). he is sooo transparent. Will be interesting to hear Maddow;s take on Monday.
He already has hired Findling I think. And I’d bet Findling is getting the money up front!
I you know this how? More likely she’s got criminal liability herself and might want to throw her own law license away so cavalierly…
Correction: “Stolen nuclear secrets”
Frankly, it’s not clear yet whether Twitler was actually aware of what was in many of those boxes. The big question is who was DRI for getting those boxes out of DC and down to Mar-a-Largo. I think Hutchinson might have helped move them but who was assigned to figure out which boxes to move? Meadows? Someone on NSC staff? It’s really not clear. Certainly one or more of the Twisslerings are in a world of legal hurt here, the question is who are those people? Pretty sure those folks will have lawyered up by now if they’re not planning to immediately spill everything to the Feds.
I think it’s worth considering the possibility that Garland didn’t authorize the search and seizure of the documents simply because he plans to charge Trump with the statutory crimes listed in the warrant used to justify the search.
Perhaps instead his goal was to get the unlawfully held documents back. And I see that as a power move on Garland’s part.
Check out Marcy Wheeler’s “Emptywheel blog”. She speculates why the documents seized were split into to receipts. Her idea is one receipt was for classified stuff that fits under Espionage law that must be prosecuted in FL, and the other receipt is doc mishandling stuff that would be prosecuted in DC. Fun read.
And I’d bet Findling is getting the money up front!
Probably not near enough though.
