    Trump had dozens of empty folders. They match his head.

    Trump having 48 empty 'classified' folders at Mar-a-Lago raises suspicion
    Newsweek, Sep 2 2022 12:49 PM EDT

    Some legal experts have expressed suspicion over the empty folders with classified markings in the newly unsealed inventory list showing what FBI agents seized during their search of former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago home last month. The list of items showed that 48 empty folders described as having "classified" banners were recovered in the raid. A Newsweek count found that the list included. Dozens of empty folders labeled "Return to Staff Secretary/Military Aide" were also listed in the inventory.

    Former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner tweeted about the inventory list today, writing that the former President "didn't pack up EMPTY folders to take with him to Florida. Things just went from bad to worse to unfathomably dangerous." Former federal prosecutor Andrew Weissmann tweeted that the empty classified folders "are of most concern. Where are the contents? Trump has not addressed that at all in all his bluster and obfuscation. What were you doing with these?"

    While campaigning for the Presidency in 2016, Donald Trump declared, "In my administration" – he obviously was confident he would win – "I'm going to enforce all laws concerning the protection of classified information. No one will be above the law." That includes yourself, right, Donald? Donald? Hello?

    Donald Trump has repeatedly called for lengthy jail sentences for those who he claimed mishandled classified information

    A judge nominated by Donald Trump has issued a ruling in favor of Donald Trump. Gee, what a surprise!

    Judge approves special master to review documents from Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate, pauses DOJ probe
    US District Judge Aileen Cannon's ruling came despite opposition from the Justice Department, which argued a special master was unnecessary and would hinder their criminal investigation.

    Donald Trump never cared about nominating judges who are "fit for the bench." He always nominated pro-Trump judges whom he knew would issue rulings in his favor, e.g.,Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett.

    Trump loves to distract, divert and deflect whenever he is accused of wrongdoing. Now he's asking, "What about Hillary?" Yeah, Donald, what about Hillary?

    What was Trump planning to do with all the top-secret and classified documents in his possession? Use them for blackmail? Sell them to a foreign country? We may never know.

    Foreign government's nuclear secrets reportedly found in Mar-a-Lago search
    Such information is so classified only the President and some members of the Cabinet or high-ranking officials know about them.

    As we learned from their votes in two impeachments of Donald Trump, Retrumplicans believe Trump is above the law. They don't care that he breaks the law, violates the Constitution, violates the Presidential oath of office, cozies up to dictators, solicits foreign election interference, spews baseless claims of voter fraud and a stolen election, incites a deadly riot and absconds with classified documents. Democratic Senator Martin Heinrich said, "if this was Hillary Clinton, they’d be calling for jail time.”

    Republicans say they would never store classified documents at home
    But they suggested it might be OK for Donald Trump to do that.

    A pro-trump judge appointed by Donald Trump issued a pro-Trump ruling that hinders a criminal investigation of Trump. Her definition of "justice" is "anything that works in Trump's favor." As expected, the Department of Justice is appealing her decision. Let us hope the 11th District Court of Appeals is not stacked with pro-Trump judges.

    DOJ appeals decision to order special master to review evidence seized in Mar-a-Lago search
    CNN, Sep 8 2022 3:54 PM ET

    The Justice Department is appealing a court-ordered special master review of the materials seized by the FBI at former President Donald Trump's Florida home. The Justice Department had vigorously opposed the appointment of a special master, which is a third-party attorney tasked with reviewing evidence and filtering out privileged documents. The department argued to US District Judge Aileen Cannon the independent review wasn't necessary, given the internal DOJ filter practices that had been used in the search. Prosecutors argued it would impede both the criminal investigation into the handling of documents from Trump's White House and national security risk analysis being conducted by the intelligence community.

    In her Monday order granting Trump's request for the special master, Cannon halted any use of the seized materials for the DOJ's criminal investigation. She said, however, that the intelligence community's assessment could continue.

    Trump used to claim to be for "law and order." He was lying. He loves violence – as long as it's carried out by his blindly loyal supporters who believe his lies about "witch hunts" and "widespread voter fraud" and a "stolen election." He gleefully watched the Capitol riot on television and now he's inciting violence against the FBI and Department of Justice officials.

    Trump’s increasing tirade against FBI and DOJ endangering lives of officials
    The Guardian, Sep 11 2022

    Donald Trump’s non-stop drive to paint the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago to recover classified documents as a political witch hunt is drawing rebukes from ex-Justice Department and FBI officials who warn such attacks can spur violence and pose a real threat to the physical safety of law enforcement. The unrelenting attacks by Trump and loyalists such as House minority leader Kevin McCarthy, Senator Lindsey Graham, Steve Bannon and false conspiracy theorist Alex Jones against law enforcement have continued despite strong evidence that Trump kept hundreds of classified documents illegally.

    "I have been dealing with law enforcement and the criminal justice system for close to 40 years. I have never seen the type or virulence of attacks being made every day against the FBI, DOJ lawyers and judges," former Justice Department inspector general Michael Bromwich told The Guardian. "It’s a chorus led by Trump but it includes elected officials at every level. It is dangerous and unacceptable."

    Trump insists he "declassified" all the classified documents that he took to Mar-a-Lago. Of course that is a lie. He also insists he maintains "absolute right of access" to all Presidential records, including those that are classified or top-secret. That, too, is false. And he insists Mar-a-Lago is "secure." Another lie.
