CNN legal analyst Elie Honig argued on Wednesday that the United States Department of Justice had effectively dropped the hammer on former President Donald Trump with its late-night filing detailing efforts to conceal the presence of top-secret documents at Mar-a-Lago.

Clearly DOJ had something on their minds, something was bugging them and they used this filing to unload all of that," he said. "The first thing that I think you take out of this filing is that, forget about these questions about whether DOJ acted too rationally, too suddenly when they executed the search warrant. they had no choice... the extent of the timeline and how long they were misled and lied to by Trump's attorneys, how many chances they gave Trump's attorneys to just hand over the documents... by a subpoena. They had to do this search warrant."

"One of the important details is that these documents were found not in the storage room... but in a desk in Donald Trump's office," he said. "I think that's really telling, gives us a sense of where they might go. The other thing is knowledge and intent: We keep talking about prosecutors would have to show Donald Trump knew what was in these documents, had criminal intent. The documents... couldn't be any more clearly marked, yellow and red, all caps, 'Secret,' 'Top Secret.'

1. he lied about how much there was
2. It was sitting right on his desk
3. who did he show it to, who did he send it to
4. He tried to hide it.

Make a joke if you wish, but its not helping Republicans retake the congress.
 
Apparently Trump lied his fat ass off to the FBI about the amount and nature of top secret material he was hording, and about how it was not properly stored and secured.
 
Yeah because if I had a plane and lots of property worldwide, I'd try to hide something in a desk in America. :laugh:

If they can prove that Trump will be found guilty of obstruction of justice. It’s obvious he is guilty, the question is can they prove it without revealing important top-secret information. The interesting thing is that trumps defense Hass to be that he declassified the information, but if he does that the prosecution can then reveal the information because it’s not classified.

Trump could not, by himself, declassify top secret documents.

Yeah, so is your theory that the FBI, who helped him get elected in 2016 all of the sudden "turncoated" on him and planted "TOP SECRET" docs at his home?

Please tell us all you're smarter than that.

Also, good morning :)

Your terribly bad excuses mount up by the day. At this point you can be sure the FBI is investigating who Trump gave these documents to, and who he shared them with. This is going to get a whole lot uglier as weeks go by.

The very fact the search happened means he's done. That's a major step before any indictment.
