Both are going to be disbarred but to keep from going to prison they will turn on him in a heartbeat. |
Bear in mind the investigation is being led by the National Security Division of DOJ and more specifically it’s Counterintelligence Branch. It’s not like this is leaking from someone at the US Attorney’s Office in DC or Florida. Information about the materials siezed would be closely guarded by the case team whose jobs are to prosecute national security breaches. Add to this the fact that something like analyzing Iranian nuclear capabilities would be compartmentalized with relatively few people having access to a classified report. They wouldn’t risk their careers or criminal prosecution to leak it to the media. Everything points to a strategic Team Trump leak that can be used to whine about leaks. Cannon led them down this path in her opinion by mischaracterizing something said during the hearing last week. |
You only get one bite of the apple so you must have an airtight case with all i's dotted and t's crossed. Do you understand this because you ask this same question over and over!!! |
Bingo. And at this point we don't know the full contours of the case - this could just be the tip of the iceberg. |
I get the point, but how many dozens of boxes of evidence do you need? If the FBI found even ONE piece of classified information if our desk drawer we'd already be in a deep dark hole, while our attorney filed motion after motion to even HAVE a preliminary hearing. |
| will we get to see trump in the perp walk - handcuffs. please please please!!! |
You don’t get the point. Yes, this is enormous as is, but what if there’s proof that he was selling secrets. What if he is the one who got all those assets killed. There might be so much more. |
Exactly, I want them to find ALL the evidence, so much that he either remains in prison the rest of his life or has to flee to Russia. |

The affidavit was unsealed at Trump's request, and listed many many classified documents (and classified folders MINUS the actual documents) were located in various places throughout Mar a Lago. That's not an unnamed source. That's as official as it gets. The one piece of information that is not attributed to a person is what just came out: According to the Washington Post, "people familiar with the matter" say FBI agents found "A document describing a foreign government’s military defenses, including its nuclear capabilities". Believe it or don't believe it. Trump himself touted "No Nuclear!!" in some post. Has he denied that he had this document? Is he saying it is a plant or something? If it is a leak, then that means it is true. What does it matter if someone in the FBI leaked this true information, really? The scandal is that Trump HAD the document. |
Trump never requested that the affidavit be unsealed. He had others do his bidding. |
| I can’t believe this has to be said but the FBI should never be leaking information (not that I believe it happened here). The actions of rogue agents in the NY Field Office in the final weeks of the 2016 election relating to the Weiner laptop and Clinton Foundation help tilt the result in favor of Trump thanks to Giuliani and Kerik. The FBI is by no means anti-Trump or a bastion of liberalism. |
Love this. Let’s threaten the lawyer’s careers and thus their families. Then they will flip!! |
He’ll be indicted just before the midterms for obstruction of justice. |
He didn’t request it in court, but he demanded it be unsealed. |
They’re mob lawyers who committed crimes on behalf of their client. They are about to go thru some things. |
