They need to ignore it and rely on precedent for Executive Privilege from Bannon’s soon to be successful appeal.
‘Pressure’ like in ‘Threaten’?.......................
... but “no reasonable prosecutor” would bring a case of obstruction against someone who smashed disk drives with a hammer, and processed intact ones with BleachBit, “wiped, like with a cloth?” despite there being a standing Congressional preservation order. No reasonable prosecutor.
At some point a higher court is going to have to step in and stop this witch hunt. These people have tunnel vision and cannot see past “getting Trump”. Cooler heads would see that these same rules can be used against the left in the future.
Most would say, “oh, the GOPe would never do that”. That is true, but it appears more true conservatives are going to be elected this year. The wishy-washy “go alongs” just might find them no longer in charge and the ones calling the shots.
May it be done to them 10 times over as they have done to others.
People forget that the Gestapo worked within the Legal System of the Time.
Oh how exciting! More “BREAKING” news from TGP - that they just read and rehashed from other news sources that had already reported it. Surprised they didn’t also claim it was an “EXCLUSIVE!”
Chinese rockets were exploding and falling all over the launch pads until Bill Clinton shared our secrets with them. Let’s talk about THAT classified information. We can work our way through all the presidents between him and Trump, and THEN, maybe, MAYBE, I’ll consider looking at The Donald.
Were there obstruction charges against Hillary for destroying 33000 emails after a subpoena was filed ? I am trying to remember.
Won’t matter, the left will stop Trump from running “no matter what”.
It is becoming clear that our Federal Government is flat out evil and a greater danger to freedom than any foreign adversary.
We are watching the Department of Justice being used as a political persecution arm and it’s all done under the guise of being legal. This is a total ridiculous investigation of charges that no one would ever harass a former president with except we are now beginning to live in some kind of evil Banana Republic.
Eternal push for a process crime, tis how we know DC is slime.
this committee assumes that they have something that would harm trump...and we call that fishing...after almost two years. their case against trump is half a.. backwards. what is noticeable is that they waited until after the mar a lago raid to subpeona him...he should have been the first to get a subpeona...being the primary witness.
If President Trump said (1) I’ve declassified all records, and (2) I am declaring these to be personal records, then they are. And if/as they are, then they don’t fall under the subpoena. Therefore, it doesn’t matter what he did with them, or had done with them.
Additionally, did you notice it didn’t say where they were moved from and to? So for example, if they were moved from his club office to the locked storage room - the one where he was requested to add an additional lock - is that what they’re talking about, and is considered obstruction?
I just cannot wait for 2024 to come, so more of the Dems can be removed from their seats, we can get a Republican President, and we can really clean house. These deep-state lifers have just got to be pulled out by the roots and replaced by people that will uphold the rule of law and the US Constitution. Our country cannot survive if the deep state actors continue to substitute their own judgement for the will of the people.
