We'll Save You the Time: The Trump Records Indictment Is Banana Republic [Garbage], Too

Victoria Taft-Opinion : Jun 13, 2023  PJ Media

"...Again, the whole purpose for this raid was to get back Trump's declassified and damning Crossfire Hurricane documents. They were about to become public in Trump's civil lawsuit versus Hillary Clinton. That [raid was run by] Jay Bratt at the [DOJ] National Security Division—the same National Security Division that helped run Crossfire Hurricane had to get back these documents." -Mike Davis, legal commentator and constitution expert

[PJMedia.com] Great news: we at PJ Media know you value your time, so as a public service, we'll save you five or so years of hand-wringing about the Donald Trump has super-secret documents in his house! case and just tell you upfront that it's [garbage]. I mean, we know how fun it is for the media wing of the Democrat Party to gleefully spin The Walls Are Closing in on Donald Trump! stories, but we'll cut to the chase by telling you why these charges would make a fine addition to my compost pile. (Screengrab image)

First, the setup. Just as American Democrats were getting heartburn over Joe Biden's bribery allegations, his 150 pesky Suspicious Activity Reports by the banks, and all his family's LLCs set up to launder the money, there came news that Donald Trump was up to no good again. That dastardly man! Did he possess Ukrainian bribe money? No, silly. Recall that Trump was impeached over wanting to get to the bottom of the Biden/Ukraine bribery scandal.

No, Trump's "crime" was possessing documents that some of the same prosecutors who claimed Trump was a Russian secret agent now claim didn't belong to him. In fact, they were super-secret documents that no former president should ever, ever have. Indeed, a collective gasp went up in the media wing of the Democrat Party when the 37 counts! were listed in the 49-page document issued by professional election hitman Jack Smith.

Now, this is not to say that Donald Trump may not end up in Ted Kaczynski's old cell at the Florence, Colorado, Super Max prison, hanging out with Ramzi Yousef. This is a banana republic, after all—just ask that meme guy in New York. But I am making the point that even some certified smart guys and Hillary Clinton believe these charges are absurd. You know, just like all the others.

Kash Patel is a former federal prosecutor, former federal defense attorney, and former DoD official who was instrumental in ferreting out the 2016 Russian Collusion fraud against Donald Trump, along with former Congressman Devin Nunes. Patel says that first of all, prosecutors overcharged the former president. As in, Whoa, 37 charges? That's what overzealous prosecutors do. Well, yes, of course. Patel says, "They charged each separate document as one count. That's going to be their calamitous regret."

And prosecutors have two different legal theories in the one indictment, hoping to convince a judge that he or she can pick one from the jurisprudential potluck table. "They have two separate legal theories in the same document in this one indictment, and they cannot both be true," Patel says. "Either, he had classified documents unlawfully ... or he did not," he told John Solomon of Just the News. "It's one or the other. You can't have it both ways."

Patel said, "In this charging document, they did not charge the president with unauthorized possession of classified documents." They did a little legal jujitsu and took "an ancient statute in the National Defense Information Act—Espionage Act—and charge[d] him with improperly taking materials related to national defense information and 'using them against the interest of the United States of America.'"

That's a problem first of all, because past presidents can't be charged with that. But life in the banana republic is like a box of chocolates: you never know what you're gonna git, Forrest.

Second, as legal commentator and constitution expert Mike Davis told me on my Adult in the Room Podcast, Trump declassified the documents the feds wanted on the day before he left office... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
