Trump had nothing to do with January 6, either.Nice country you’ve got there. Be a shame if a bunch of the droogs I’ve weaponized went on a killing spree across it. pic.twitter.com/dD2z3T1dwC

So the informant was a security camera?The Justice Department also saw something on surveillance footage that had been subpoenaed of the storage area that concerned them. It was unclear what period of time the footage was from https://t.co/JKTTvk2a5H

I'm sure the distinction is an important one; or at least sounds important. But it’s also the problem of reporting on this topic. Most of it is, frankly, sloppy.Seems like the difference between “classified” and “marked as classified” will make a difference for the self-abasing Trump cultists’ “he can declassify with his MIND” defense https://t.co/502qePJkPm

Donald Trump continues to employ a spaghetti legal defense as he figuratively throws things against the wall to see if anything will stick, after the FBI executed a search warrant at Mar-a-Lago earlier this week.Trump has yet to offer a legal defense, or anything like it. His latest is just like his first:
"The 'White House' just announced that it had no knowledge of the early morning raid on Mar-a-Lago, or the break in of Melania’s closets, my safe’s, or the secured and locked storage area where unclassified documents were safely held, and which the FBI knew of, was shown, and made recommendations that another lock be added (which they cracked, but not with the safecracker that they brought with them!)," Trump posted to Truth Social, even though the White House said on Monday they learned of the search warrant from Twitter.
"Does anybody really believe that the White House didn’t know about this? Witch hunt!" Trump claimed, as he did during both of his impeachment trials.Even Steve Bannon wouldn’t try that one in court. Does it matter one way or the other? Does it have anything to do with Trump refusing to turn over the records? As George Conway said:
They don't want anybody to think, they want everybody to fight," Conway continued. "They want everybody to be angry and that's part of why they do that, is partly because the money comes in when they do that."Which is pretty much all the internet is used for: generating outrage.
Yeah; Trump’s “defenses” work like that.Schrödinger's Treason:

When you didn't take, accidentally took, innocently used, declassified and then took, took and then declassified, the documents that you never took and were illicitly planted in your house by the FBI - all simultaneously.
The OJ Simpson/Donald Trump parallel will definitely come full circle if he finally gets arrested and goes to jail for stealing a bunch of stuff he believed belonged to him 😂
