Popular Post Bkk Brian Posted August 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 27, 2022 Good example of the concerns on who was able to make their way into Mar-a-lago The FBI has launched an investigation into a Russian-speaking Ukrainian immigrant named Inna Yashchyshyn, who allegedly posed as a member of the Rothschild banking family to gain access to former President Donald Trump's inner circle at Mar-a-Lago, according to reporting from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette and the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project. The FBI investigation appears focused on whether Yashchyshyn was part of a broader criminal network that attempted to make inroads with politicians and businessmen, according to the report–investigators have reportedly obtained two fake “Anna de Rothschild” passports as part of the probe. https://web.archive.org/web/20220827005006/https://www.forbes.com/sites/nicholasreimann/2022/08/26/russian-speaking-immigrant-allegedly-entered-mar-a-lago-using-fake-identity-met-with-trump-report-says/ https://www.forbes.com/sites/nicholasreimann/2022/08/26/russian-speaking-immigrant-allegedly-entered-mar-a-lago-using-fake-identity-met-with-trump-report-says/ 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ozimoron Posted August 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 27, 2022 'Petty man' Trump shredded by former prosecutor for endangering US intelligence for personal gain But according to former federal prosecutor Joyce Vance on Twitter, whether Trump actually did declassify the documents is beside the broader point: that the former president had no basis for doing so except his personal whim, and that U.S. intelligence and national security was put at risk by that whim. "Even if Trump did declassify documents (which DOJ seems to doubt) that doesn't mean the information in them somehow became unimportant," wrote Vance. "It means that a small, petty man abused the power of the presidency and exposed the country and individuals collecting intelligence to grave risks." https://www.rawstory.com/petty-trump/ 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post LarrySR Posted August 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 27, 2022 Undoubtedly the indictment is incoming. If the arrogant fool had fully cooperated and returned all of the records to NARA last year, this likely never would have become a criminal matter. DOJ would have declined to take any action. Just another story in the Trump saga of incompetence. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Given that the former president was not responsibly securing the government’s most closely held intelligence, that he was trying to prevent the FBI from examining what he’d returned, that his lawyers were either misinformed about or lying about the classified information still retained at Mar-a-Lago, and that even the issuance of a grand-jury subpoena (with potential criminal penalties for noncompliance) had not succeeded in getting Trump to hand over the remaining classified information, what option short of a search warrant would have sufficed?" https://www.nationalreview.com/2022/08/trump-worlds-mar-a-lago-offensive-backfires/ 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet the Trump appointed Horowitz found that the Steele Dossier probe was justified. Both US Congress and Manafort recently admitted that the Trump 2016 Campaign did collude with the Russians. A unredacted report from Barr's DOJ released this week, showed that Barr lied about the Mueller Report. The Mueller Report stated that Trump was guilty of obstruction and could be charged and that there was also evidence that he did collude with the Russians. I would suggest that the average intelligent critical thinker could only come to one logical conclusion. ie Trump was lying when he called the Russian collusion a hoax.

One thing I really admire about his supporters is that no matter what you throw at them they come back at you with their votes in your face. You're not even smart enough to see that.

It would seem not from your post because you don't address what they said at all. Most people considered it a reasonable explanation. Why wouldn't you want to prevent witnesses from being killed by rabid right wingers who have already made thousands of death threats to FBI agents? Why wouldn't you not want to telegraph your possible prosecution strategy to the defense before a trial? It's extraordinary for the FBI to ever release the warrant before a trial. Do you not know that? 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows... Bipartisan lol. Not surprised. That's why I'm Independent / Libertarian At the presidental level that's just rubbish. It nulls the electoral college. Mob rule. Electoral college does not really exist at state level. I think 40/50 states have popular vote even for senatoral elections now I think about it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
