And Donnie's day gets even worse as he is hit with a triple whammy. The DOJ can easily nail Donnie on this illegal act. Who knows if he was sharing sensitive classified Intel with our enemies including Putin.   

DOJ appears ready to launch a probe into Trump for bringing classified documents to Mar-a-Lago



Former President Donald Trump was caught taking 15 large boxes of documents from the White House to Mar-a-Lago when he left the White House, it was reported in February. The National Archives sent a team to Palm Beach, Florida to collect the truck-load of information it discovered was missing last summer.

What was uncovered, however, is that Trump didn't just take any old documents, many of them were reportedly top-secret and classified information relating to national security.

The Washington Post reported Thursday that the Justice Department appears poised to begin an official probe into the removal of the documents. Sources familiar with the probe spoke about the ongoing investigation, saying that it was in the early stages. It's unknown the degree to which the Justice Department has made its way through the boxes seized at Mar-a-Lago. There are people who may have witnessed the documents being removed or may have been involved in it, but thus far it's unclear whether the DOJ has reached out to any witnesses.

The revelations came from House Oversight chair Rep. Carolyn B. Maloney (D-NY), who alleged on Thursday in a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland that the DOJ was blocking her committee from looking into the boxes from Mar-a-Lago. In fact, she used the word "interfering."

If the DOJ is doing their own probe, it might be why they're refusing to turn over anything to Maloney and her committee currently. She wrote in the letter that she wants an explanation for why they are blocking her request.

“The Committee does not wish to interfere in any manner with any potential or ongoing investigation by the Department of Justice,” Maloney explained in the letter. “However, the Committee has not received any explanation as to why the Department is preventing NARA from providing information to the Committee that relates to compliance with the [Presidential Records Act], including unclassified information describing the contents of the 15 boxes from Mar-a-Lago.”

The FBI is refusing to comment on whether an investigation exists.

Over the past weeks, officials have called on the Justice Department to do more in investigating Trump and his family's role in Jan. 6. In a series of speeches before voting to hold Peter Navarro and Dan Scavino in contempt of Congress, members of both sides specifically highlighted the recommendations to the DOJ.

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) told the DOJ that they should “not apply any doctrine of immunity that might block Congress from fully uncovering and addressing the causes of the January 6th attack.” Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-CA) explained that the Jan. 6 committee was doing its work and that “the Department of Justice needs to do theirs.”

More projection and a fake conspiracy theory from you.

Joe Biden jogs and rides a bike. Donnie was too feeble to walk down a ramp two years ago needing assistance.



You are still hung up on Trump trying to walk carefully down a steep ramp with no handrail when we have the crypt master in office?  How is this for someone needing assistance:

Biden gets lost walking the short distance from the helicopter to the White House.  The reaction of the secret serive is priceless.  They are like the handlers of an escaped dementia patient.  Scary:

Donald Trump’s day so far:

- DOJ confirms it’s investigating Trump
- New York AG moves to hold Trump in contempt of court
- Manhattan DA confirms criminal case against Trump is ongoing
- He’s getting hit from all sides now
- Trump is going to prison

No wonder right wingers are freaking out and pushing Hunter Biden conspiracies as a deflection from this huge breaking new day. Donnie is going to prison for his multiple felonies.

What's wild about Will Smith being banned for 10 years from the Oscars is that Donald Trump Jr. was texting Mark Meadows after the election to orchestrate a coup to overturn the results of the election and install his father as dictator

BUSTED: Trump Jr texted Meadows that overturning the 2020 election would be ‘very simple’



The House Select Committee Investigating the Jan. 6 Attack on the U.S. Capitol has obtained text messages from Donald Trump, Jr. to then-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows laying out a plan for his father to stay in office despite losing the 2020 election.

"Two days after the 2020 presidential election, as votes were still being tallied, Donald Trump’s eldest son texted then-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows that “we have operational control” to ensure his father would get a second term, with Republican majorities in the US Senate and swing state legislatures, CNN has learned. In the text, which has not been previously reported, Donald Trump Jr. lays out ideas for keeping his father in power by subverting the Electoral College process, according to the message reviewed by CNN," the network reported.

The committee has previously obtained texts between Meadows and Ginny Thomas along with a GOP member of Congress.

“It’s very simple,” Trump Jr. texted Meadows. “We have multiple paths We control them all.”

Trump Jr.’s lawyer Alan S. Futerfas said, "this message likely originated from someone else and was forwarded.”

CNN explained that "The November 5 text message outlines a strategy that is nearly identical to what allies of the former President attempted to carry out in the months that followed. Trump Jr. makes specific reference to filing lawsuits and advocating recounts to prevent certain swing states from certifying their results, as well as having a handful of Republican state houses put forward slates of fake 'Trump electors.'"

Trump Jr. ‘just wrote it all down’: MSNBC host shocked by text message coup scheme

On Friday's edition of MSNBC's "All In," anchor Chris Hayes examined the new report that Donald Trump Jr. actively communicated with White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows on plans to overturn the 2020 presidential election in text messages.

"Today, we are learning new details about the involvement of the ex-president's own son," said Hayes. "We already knew that Don Jr. texted his father's chief of staff, Mark Meadows, while the insurrection was happening, pleading with him to stop ... we are learning, though, that Don Jr. was texting Mark Meadows, quote, 'ideas for overturning the 2020 election before it was even called,' according to CNN.

"The message is from November 5th, just two days after the election, and it is among the texts Meadows turned over to the January 6 committee," Hayes continued. "In it, Trump Jr. lays out ideas for keeping his father in power by subverting the Electoral College process, writing, quote, 'It's very simple. We have multiple paths. We control them all.' He goes on to outline a strategy that is nearly identical to what allies of the former president, like John Eastman or Rudy Giuliani, actually attempted to carry out in the months to follow. He talks about filing lawsuits, and advocating recounts to prevent certain swing states from certifying the results, as well as having a handful of Republican state houses put forward slates of fake Trump electors."

"If all of that failed, Republican lawmakers in congress could simply vote to reinstall Trump as president on January 6th," Hayes said. "Quote, 'Republicans control 28 states, Democrats 22 states, once again Trump wins. We either have a vote we control, and we win, or it gets kicked to Congress January 6, 2021. We have operational control, total average, moral high ground, POTUS must start second term now.'"

"Wow. They just wrote it all down, didn't they?" added Hayes. "So the ex-president's son was stirring up plans to overturn the election, building the case for the insurrection before all of the votes were even counted. Before it was called. In the following days and weeks, Trump and his allies continued exactly that plan, inciting what happened on January 6th."

Trump Jr. 'belongs in the slammer' after damning texts show his 'treasonous criminality': experts



Donald Trump, Jr. is facing calls for his arrest after CNN published text messages to Mark Meadows showing a scheme to overturn the 2020 presidential election, which was won by Joe Biden.

"Two days after the 2020 presidential election, as votes were still being tallied, Donald Trump’s eldest son texted then-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows that “we have operational control” to ensure his father would get a second term, with Republican majorities in the US Senate and swing state legislatures, CNN has learned. In the text, which has not been previously reported, Donald Trump Jr. lays out ideas for keeping his father in power by subverting the Electoral College process, according to the message reviewed by CNN," the network reported.

The messages were obtained by the House Select Committee Investigating the Jan. 6 Attack on the U.S. Capitol.

“It’s very simple,” Trump Jr. texted Meadows. “We have multiple paths We control them all.”

Legal experts were shocked by the revelation.

Richard Painter, the chief White House ethics lawyer in the George W. Bush administration, said the messages were evidence of a crime.

"This was an attempted putsch. He belongs in the slammer!" Painter wrote.

Former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner called it "treasonous criminality."

"The 'Subject' line of Don Jr.’s email might as well have been, 'I’m a member of my father’s criminal conspiracy to overturn the election.' How long do we have to endure this open, treasonous criminality by Trump and company before someone gets indicted?" he wondered.

Constitutional law expert Lawrence Tribe described the texts as "a smoking rifle."

"The text from Trump Jr. shows how those closest to the former President were already exchanging ideas for how to overturn the election months before the January 6 insurrection -- and before all the votes were even counted.” This text is a smoking rifle."

Journalist Keith Olbermann also expected the president's eldest son would end up in the slammer.

"Hey guess what: @DonaldJTrumpJr is ALSO going to wind up in prison for criminal conspiracy to overthrow the government of the United States of America.

Who'd a thunk it?"
