Given that in Eric’s deposition, he plead the 5th 500 times, it could be fatal

If you’re innocent, why are you taking the Fifth Amendment,” Trump said as a candidate in 2016, complaining about aides to his Democratic opponent, Hillary Clinton, who faced inquires over the use of a private email service when she was secretary of state.

“The mob takes the Fifth,” Trump declared.

Yeah but Trump always lies so whatever he said about the fifth ain't true.

Trump’s political future – and even his freedom – may be threatened by documents found at Mar-a-Lago, experts say

It’s a crime to remove them, a crime to destroy them and the irony is all the bitching about Hilary’s emails and Trumps administration did the same on steroids. Between this, the PA and NY cases, Trump is basically going to go down (as we all suspected including many Republicans in the 2016 election primary’s) as the most corrupt president ever. Nixon can sleep soundly now, he is no longer the most corrupt.

A very bad week for Trump.
Mazars quits. He must sit for depositions by NY AG investigating fraud. Civil suit to determine his liability for January 6th upheld.
He is not above the law.

I wonder how many top secret documents you can stuff down a toilet at one time?

I bet those manilla folders marked "TOP SECRET" are a tough flush

Donald Trump did not steal boxes and boxes classified government information just to flush it down the toilet at Mar-a-Lago. Donald Trump stole boxes and boxes of classified government information to sell it.

He. Is A. Spy.

A federal judge on Friday sweepingly rejected former president Donald Trump’s claim of “absolute immunity” from lawsuits

Trump once again thinks the rules do not apply to him

More Trump sarcasm. A sort of dark humor, kind of funny, but true. And sort of a dig at the Biden Administration being so concerned about Ukraine's border but so little concerned about ours.

Donald Trump’s idea of showing strength towards Vladimir Putin was to shower him with compliments and kiss the ring. He’s always been weak.

Obama "Made Russia Great Again" with his weakness...

Feb 2018 UK Independent

Russia, Assad’s ally, offered to remove the regime’s chemical weapons stockpile to prevent such outrages happening again. Fatefully, Obama agreed. In effect, he outsourced the war to Moscow.
Obama’s disregard for his own “red line” was interpreted in Moscow, Tehran, Damascus and other Arab capitals as confirming a fundamental shift – evidence that a chastened, post-Iraq America was retreating from its global policeman role. Obama’s hesitation gave Vladimir Putin, Russia’s leader, an opening. It fitted his core agenda: to rebuild Moscow’s influence in the Middle East and make Russia great again by restoring Soviet-era global reach.



And now frail, confused brandon can't muster his pre-election bluster...

today

Biden’s Putin Appeasement Has Been Years in the Making
By DAVID HARSANYI
As VP, he mocked Russia hawks, treated Putin as a partner, and helped Russia join the WTO. Then came his presidency.


NBC- President Joe Biden announced Tuesday that a set of sanctions will be imposed on Russia for recognizing the so-called Luhansk and Donetsk People’s Republics, whose territory is internationally recognized as part of Ukraine. Biden stopped short of imposing the severest sanctions, which he promised would be imposed were Russia to invade Ukraine.
Russia remains unimpressed with U.S. security proposals. If the objective of these measures is to push Russia into withdrawing its military presence near the Ukrainian border, the strategy is obviously failing. It was a moment full of dire portents.


weak...weak...weak...

You’ve got to love that in the middle of Republicans trying to rewrite Trump’s Putin loving history, he gives an interview where he just gushes like a fanboy about how awesome his friend in Moscow is.
