Don’t you even watch Judge Judy? Everybody and his steenkin’ brother knows that HEARSAY IS INADMISSIBLE.

How would waving top secret documents be any different than the FIB publishing photographs of top secret documents laying on the MAL floor in the press?

I understood that the cover jackets and operational names are not classified.

Ditto, I can see the Judge tossing the case, or even better, a directed verdict of not guilty.

Will depend on what the witness said. Sounds like it was him and a lady reporter. The recording device likely setting on the desk. Would like to know if it was hers or a planted device. But they will be questioning her on what she saw in the paper. Trump said all there said he did nothing wrong.

If he had really displayed “classified” info, don’t you think they would have dragged those who were supposedly shown the document into court and then leaked their testimony?

The DOJ has admitted there were no classified documents in that meeting.
That’s not true. The DOJ was not at the meeting and has no idea what material was present. If there were classified docs as Trump implied, the DOJ does not have them. They are doing this to portray Trump as a loose cannon who was disclosing national secrets. If the Judge allows this recording at the trial, they will play the tape where Trump implies the disclosure of classified material. Trump and his attorneys will have the opportunity to say there was no classified material, it was just bravado. It’s an easy sell here at FR, but a much tougher sell to a jury.>>> A real Jury would ask for the documents. No documents no indictment. Lets read the actual unreadacted “classified” espionage. Oh you can’t read it. no indictment. acquited of all charges.

The prosecution has 84 witnesses.

As stated, there’s no photographic or video evidence in an audio file so it’s irrelevant whatever he was waving if anything.

As for the crap pictures the FBI showed, they’re meaningless anyway and only for show. Cover Jackets are just that, covers. They can say TOP SECRET and there’s a picture of a kitten inside.

The Fed needs to explain what’s proven by what Trump said.

What’s the deep, dark incriminating thing to which the Feds believe Trump’s admitted?

One Guy is sold.😁

And although he just hired Alissa Heinerscheid as his head of advertising (she was available), he’s ready to fire her and hire you. Just say the word and she’s back on the streets. 👍

The crime is, at the end of the recording, he asked for some Cokes to be sent in.

Isn’t Coke still in Limbo for training employees to “try to be less white” in February 2021?
