The FBI is required to give to Trump an inventory of what was found in the search; if Trump claims he had no govt property in his home and this is a witch hunt, then he should release the search inventory. Time to put up or shut up......

The Trump filings for a Special Master were a huge misstep. DOJ has used its response to disclose damning proof of a series of crimes, which it would not otherwise have been able to do. And one very compelling photo.

Should Trump be investigated and prosecuted when he is out of office? Yes. A president is not above the law. If he broke it before or during his presidency, he must face the consequences anyone else would. To do otherwise would set a precedent that he is above the law.

Judge Cannon is a partisan hack: she says it is "disputed" that the documents are classified, but Trump never said in court he declassified them and submitted NO evidence, so the only evidence before her is that they are and are so marked. She really is totally in the tank here.

Smart Nicolle Wallace point: if the Mueller Report was so weak, and not implicating Trump, why did Barr/Engel/O'Callahan need to concoct a tortured memo absolving him? Answer: they knew, when made public, the Report would inculpate Trump in obstruction.

Note the date. He was doing this while out on bail from his conviction in the Mueller probe.

Meadows on redirect by his own atty testified that he participated in the elector scheme for CAMPAIGN purposes - ie so Trump would win reelection at p 147. (Adding he didn't want Trump yelling at him if he did not help.) A direct admission this is NOT removable to federal court.

Today was the first time in 4 years that Putin got a tough call from the US President.

With all due respect to those who think the DA charges this week were all there is, I disagree. This was a shot across the bow. More to come. DA message to Trump Org employees cooperate now or face charges and jail. That’s how this works.

Prompt prosecution of those who threaten violence against any judge, juror, prosecutor or legislator who seek to uphold the rule of law in holding Trump and his conspirators to account needs to be done. ASAP

Donald, which is it:dox were planted or dox were declassified? Can’t be both. And if you declassified them, you had to be aware of contents. Lucky that you operate in fact-free zone — but unfortunately for you juries don’t.

Question for Barr: how are Flynn’s confessed lies to the FBI (repeated to the VP) not a crime, but Clinesmith changing an email (the full version of which he also sent to DOJ) is?

A zillion stories about Trump case — but bottom line is he is getting charged and it will be in DC. And this week. Open issues are whether others may be charged and whether they will be in DC or FLA.

Woke up to radio announcing it's Trump's last full day in office. Never thought we would get here, after a 4-year nightmare, but it fills me with joy and relief.

BIG PICTURE- a former president of United States is making a mockery of our judicial system. Will the separate judicial branch hold the line?

All eyes now turn to DOJ-- will it indict Trump on the documents case? The facts, law and DOJ precedent all counsel in favor of holding him to account, as others have been for conduct of equal or lesser culpability. In short: the rule of law compels it.
