    Trump's MAGA judge can't save him: Legal woes pile up even after favorable "special master" ruling

    Donald Trump is depending on his hand-picked judge, Aileen Cannon, to save him.

    But he has too many cases to count

    "one of revelations in the book (which has an October 4 release date on Amazon) is that

    after Trump lost the 2020 presidential election, he declared, “I’m just not going to leave.”

    Before the 2020 election, MAGA Republicans accused “Real Time” host Bill Maher of having “Trump derangement syndrome” when he warned repeatedly that

    Trump would refuse to admit defeat and try to stay in the White House if he lost the election.

    But sure enough, Trump lost the election and did exactly what Maher
    feared he would do.

    And Haberman, in “Confidence Man,” cites an example of the type of behavior that Maher and other Trump critics predicted.

    “Trump’s insistence that he would not be leaving the White House, which has not been previously reported,

    adds new detail to the chaotic post-election period in which

    Trump’s refusal to accept his defeat and

    numerous efforts to overturn the election result led to the January 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol by pro-Trump rioters.”

    Trump 100% fascist, but too ing dumb to pull it off

    otoh, Desantis is 100% but easily smart enough, along with Repugs/MAGAtts stealing elections, to pull it off.

    christo fascist SCOTUS6 will kill USA by approving next year "independent state legislatures" who can ignore state supreme court and state cons utions to do anything they want.

    Trump's New Claims On Stolen Classified Do ents Are Way Beyond Absurd

    they don’t waste any time getting right into the meat of their ridiculous crap-ola.

    On page one, Trump asserts that the “Government wrongfully seeks to criminalize the possession by the 45th President of his own Presidential and personal records.”

    Got that? On line 3 of the filing, Trump and

    his lawyers are telling the judge that the papers he turned over to the National Archives in January,

    and the classified do ents he turned over to the DOJ in June, and

    the classified do ents seized by the FBI on August 8

    all of them,

    irrespective of the fact that they were all the work-product of the federal government and by law belong to the federal government, well, Judge Cannon,

    they are mine.


    One page later, it gets worse. Trump’s lawyers refer to the classified do ents in question – you know, the ones we’ve all seen in the photograph taken by the FBI in Trump’s office – as “purported ‘classified records.’”

    In other words,

    they are contesting that the do ents marked classified as Top Secret/Sensitive Compartmented Information and others marked Top Secret and Classified, are not classified do ents at all.

    The filing then goes on to contest the government’s contention that “if a do ent has a classification marking, it remains classified irrespective of any actions taken during President Trump's term in office.”

    what they are apparently indicating without coming right out and saying so is that

    Trump declassified the do ents during the time he served as president,
    despite the complete lack of evidence that this is true.

    When do ents are declassified,
    they are marked as such


    Trump is not only asserting that the classified do ents are “Presidential records” under the legal definitions of the Presidential Records Act (PRA), but they are only “purported classified do ents.”

    parse this jewel:

    they are alleging that the government “assumes a fact not yet established” that the classified do ents we’ve all seen – including, presumably, Judge Cannon – in the FBI photograph showing multiple do ents with multiple and very serious classification markings.

    And then, incredibly, they are questioning whether the FBI search and seizure of the do ents from Mar-a-Lago was “lawful” because it has not been “determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.”

    When he visited the UK, he probably spent time with the Queen's stand-in, a body double. Maybe he does have a special connection with that person.

    I'm sure he can hold some special ceremony when he names himself king of America where he doesn't invite King Charles in retaliation.

    'Trump turned the DOJ into his own personal law firm':

    Republican US Attorney tells all in new bombs book


    Geoffrey Berman sounded the alarm on a

    wide-reaching ethics scandal that reaches all the way to the top of the Justice Department and to former President Donald Trump.

    growing list of illegal or unethical behavior by Trump's DOJ being uncovered by investigations and whistleblowers willing to come forward.

    Berman explained one of the main reasons he stayed in his position as long as he did:

    If Bill Barr got rid of him, there wouldn't be anyone left who could be trusted to "hold the line."


    "And I think because of that very noisy exit, as you said,

    Audrey Strauss took over as acting U.S. Attorney,

    and she's a person of the highest integrity. And an icon of the New York Bar."

    Newly seized phones can put Trump 'at center of a conspiracy

    Department of Justice issued a wave of subpoenas last week and seized the phones of two of Donald Trump's closest associates,

    peculated that data retrieved from the phones could be used to come after Trump as the possible center of a criminal conspiracy.

    the circles are closing in on the highest levels of government here, close aides to the former president,"

    we are seeing the fake elector scheme meets seditious conspiracy.

    So what they're really looking for is a commonality to connect these two threads together."


    It says to me they have looked at phone records they have been able to get from the phone company

    but there may be encrypted phone messages

    they can only get from the phones themselves.

    the ones that might be the most sensitive."

    can be a veritable gold mine."

    Legal experts demand action after bombs book details rampant DOJ corruption

    corruption was running rampant throughout the government of Donald Trump.

    The last six years have been filled with stories about ethics problems by Cabinet officials, political retaliation, self-protection, political promotion and more.


    with Trump's scandals, saying,

    "this is a person that has crossed so many lines:

    legal, ethical, moral, every line you can imagine, presidential norms be damned.

    Every single things we can think of."

    Colbert Nails Down Trump's Worst Legal Worry


    Facing a litany of legal troubles following the FBI's discovery of classified government do ents at Mar-a-Lago,

    Donald Trump is in a terrible bind.

    But Stephen Colbert says his worst problem is that he can't find a decent lawyer.


    “His current legal team consists of

    a Florida insurance lawyer who’s never had a federal case,

    a former host at far-right One America News


    and a past general counsel for a parking garage company,”

    noted a smirking Colbert.


    "Only the best and brightest people, right?" Colbert went on.

    "Please, Lord, I don’t ask for much, but please -- let this go to trial.”


    Colbert imagines what a clown show that trial would be.

    Trump is 'incredibly worried' Jeff Clark will flip on him as conspiracy charges are prepared

    former acting Solicitor General Neal Katyal reacted to the new reports that

    the Justice Department is
    investigating former Donald Trump Justice Department official

    Jeffrey Clark is under investigation for conspiracy, false statements, and obstruction.

    "So conspiracy is a very flexible doctrine that prosecutors can use,

    and the key thing about it — it goes all the way back to like the 17th century — that it doesn't require the completion of a crime.

    It's called an inchoate crime.

    If you and I agree to rob a bank, that's a crime,

    even if we end up not doing it, as long as there's an act and furtherance of it.

    I wrote a whole Yale journal about how

    this doctrine is a flexible tool for prosecutors to use because

    it allows people to flip and turn in information to law enforcement."

    Trump — who already apparently has insiders giving the FBI information — should be "incredibly worried" that Clark could flip on him.

    And the fact that he hired a new lawyer for
    $3 million upfrontis an indication he already is.

    what kind of case would

    you spend $3 million on, it's usually something with a ton of legal work,"

    Trump judge made huge 'blunder' on basics of classified information

    former federal prosecutor Harry Litman broke down why the latest ruling by Trump-appointed Judge Aileen Cannon in the dispute over the DOJ's investigation of classified do ents at Mar-a-Lago

    doesn't make any sense.

    The ruling settles who will act as special master

    . "So the resolution here, right, is that there's gonna be a special master.

    But I don't even understand what matrix of evaluation this special master is supposed to use with a classified do ents.

    What is he looking for? Like, what is the thing that makes it a Trump do ent?\\\

    he could have reclassified when he was president. But he didn't and there is no proof of it,

    and it is really an important blunder on her part

    because there is no law about executive privilege and a former president.

    And here we know already, from the Trump case and the Nixon case, that even if there were, it would certainly yield to the interests of the United States."


    What could possibly be on it that would make it a not classified do ent that belongs to the U.S. government?

    What is he sifting for?"
