This is yet another debunking of a left-wing ‘conspiracy theory’ that Donald Trump was somehow engaged in treasonous behavior due to his possession of the classified-marked documents that he had from his time as president. It is, as the former president has called it, a nuclear “hoax.”

Gnarly Garland moves slowly, surreptitiously and surely.
Special prosecutors have the power of subpoena that, unlike congresional ones, cannot be ignored. They can also use the FBI to serve warrants and execute seizures of documents and devices. This is pretty huge.
I am sure all your holes are occupied. Right stupid?
And it begins
I hope they get his family secret service protection
We were all (well, us sane ppl anyways) thinking that Garland would move after the elections. This is great news!
He has prosecuted Democratic office holders in the past folks
He’s as independent as an American comes
If you truly believe the nonsense that Crazy Trump spews out, then you are quite gullible.
The big lie is all yours. The 2020 election was stolen.
Again with Putin? You are a cretin, why do you even bother? You make the Left look very stupid. Do them and yourself a favor and stop posting.
I am shocked, just shocked I tell ya....

Plus, this investigation can go on for years, like Benghazi. Future presidents can't just "fire" them. I just wish Garland and his Special Prosecutor could be as much of a douche as their predecessors in one way - leaking. Remember the Starr probe? That demon leaked stories about the Clintons left and right and the wing-nut world feasted on them.
What's good for the goose is good for the MAGA.
On a personal level I would really enjoy tantalizing "leaks." But on the citizen level, I want this investigation and convictions resulting from it to be ironclad and appeal-proof.
I'm sure it will be run "above board" but with no information coming out for years, MAGAs will be the only ones speaking. There needs to be some kind of "response center" in the DOJ to shoot down the MAGA rumors and propaganda regarding the probe at least.
I see what you mean, and agree. Maybe just occasional updates officially put out to the media, stuff that doesn't give away the case or targets.
I just thought of one more great thing! I'm pretty sure this is true - if anyone is granted immunity to prosecution, say, Eastman, for example - he can't take the 5th during testimony. He'll have to answer truthfully! I think they should do that with either Eastman or the Pillow Guy. They'd be the first to break.
Biden is not involved. It was all the function of the justice dept. He is not like Trump. Trump deciding to run so damn early changed relationships. The AG turned a couple of cases over to Smith. Just the documents case deals with
Retention of national defense information
conversion of government property
obstruction of justice
Criminal contempt
False statements to federal investigators.
Trump has no defense. He is guilty as sin.
