Game over' for Trump amid new obstruction evidence: legal expert



Donald Trump could be facing "game over" in the Mar-a-Lago documents case, according to one legal expert.

The former president absconded with classified documents to his private resort after leaving the White House, and he then allegedly tried to obstruct authorities from retrieving them, according to MSNBC legal analyst Andrew Weismann.

"There are two ways in which I think there are going to be obstruction charges, as you noted with respect to Mar-a-Lago, it's important that you already have a federal magistrate who found probable cause that there was obstruction," Weismann said. "Remember in the search it included evidence of obstruction, the allegation by the government in the search warrant, and that was approved by the magistrate... which was the actions of the former president after receiving a subpoena from the Department of Justice, so I agree with this could be a rock crusher game over, and the Republicans who are following the former president in the Manhattan case could just go over the cliff when and if we see charges in Florida that are really quite strong based on what we know now and then in Manhattan, there could be obstruction charges if the former president continues doing what he has been doing this last week, including last night, and is inciting violence."

"It will be very interesting to see both the district attorney's reaction and whether that leads to additional charges because those things can be charged as additional crimes, and what many people may view as the least serious of the criminal investigations may be quite serious in Manhattan as well and the judge can impose significant restrictions on what Donald Trump says and does if he continues this behavior," Weismann added.

Fox News just slipped up and referred to Donald Trump as “President Fraud” and everyone can’t stop laughing.

Donald Trump has been criminally indicted in Manhattan on thirty-four counts related to campaign finance fraud and corporate fraud, and really, his entire life has been one big fraud. The people at Fox News, who are also frauds, are well aware that Trump is a fraud, they just don’t want to admit it to their audience of frauds. But today they accidentally did.

In freudian slip for the ages, Fox News guest Brian Claypool accidentally referred to Donald Trump as “President Fraud” – and the entire internet erupted:

Claim that Trump showed classified docs to donors could be what brings him down: former FBI agent



Bombshell revelations claiming former President Donald Trump was showing classified documents to donors at his Mar-a-Lago home could be what brings him down, former FBI agent and Donald Trump foe Peter Strzok said Monday.

Speaking to MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace, he cited a Sunday Washington Post article that claimed the Justice Department had obtained new evidence that proves obstructions of justice in the classified case.

Before that report, Trump could reasonably claim that he knew nothing about the documents, the report said. He could say his staff had packed them into boxes when he moved from the White House, without Trump's knowledge.

But if he was showing them off to visitors, that argument would be killed.

Former Principal Deputy Solicitor General Neal Katyal, who joined Strzok on Wallace's panel, explained that these facts remove Trump's ability to use that excuse. It ties Trump directly to obstruction.

"That's where the reporting from yesterday comes in that's so important," Katyal told Wallace. "It ties Trump directly to the scheme. If it holds up and, of course, we don't know — and Trump is entitled to the presumption of innocence and all that, but if that's what [special counsel] Jack Smith is looking at and looks like what he got, that's going to be very devastating."

But it was ultimately Strzok that connected the dots between all of those details and warned that Trump is "quite encircled" on the conspiracy to obstruct the documents probe.

"I think part of the reason he hasn't been charged yet — remember one of Trump's key lawyers, Evan Corcoran, was engaged in this long fight about whether or not he'd be compelled to testify before the grand jury and recently he did go ahead and do that," Strzok said.

"This article very clearly points out that special counsel Smith's folks are asking whether or not he shows this information to donors," he continued. "So, if you're trying to figure out the 'why,' what's your theory of the case, why on Earth did he want to do it, if he's using this to convert it for fundraising and showing it to people who absolutely have no business seeing it and he's hiding it at the same time. That really starts to flesh out the story about, one, why this occurred and, two, how integral Trump was to this entire enterprise."

Wallace read the piece of the Post report saying that Trump would flash his classified documents, "including maps," to political donors. This isn't the first time Trump is accused of playing fast and loose with the nation's secrets or security. During the early years of the Trump presidency, Mar-a-Lago club members were seen having their photos taken with the nuclear football, the briefcase that contains all authorization for a president to launch a nuclear attack while away from the White House.
