Sunday Document Dump

We start with Peter Strzok's guest link to the WaPo article. Enjoy (if it still works).  Then we jump to David Cay Johnston for a little "state of mind" insight:

"Donald has no history of that will allow him to process what's going on," said David Cay Johnston. "He has gotten away with crimes and wrongdoing, everything from plying 12, 13, and 14-year-old children to gamble in his casinos, by giving them liquor and limousines and rooms in his, and being involved up to his eyeballs with a major international cocaine trafficker for which he did major favors — to getting away with lying under oath in some proceedings. So, here, Donald is very aware that he is at risk. He simply doesn't know how to process that. So, he is scared you are seeing his fear and his growing fear in the things he's posting to Truth Social and the comments he's making in public."
And then back to the WaPo article:
Trump has been very public about his "right" to take documents under the PRA (he's wrong) and many have said he sees them as "souvenirs" or, more darkly, valuable material on some black market.  As Mr. Johnston lays out, Trump knows alot about black markets.

And if the possibility of 4 indictments isn't enough to make you want to keep Trump out from behind the Presidential podium again, consider this new information about what he did when he was there:
emptywheel has a bit more: There's a reason Jordan didn't tell Bartiromo this morning that he was going to subpoena Bragg (he just said "Everything's on the table.").  It's because he knows even if he can get the subpoena issued and the DOJ to try to enforce it, the Courts will [s]quash it like a cockroach.  This footnote is one more reason why; and why political girl was so right about Jordan and the GOP. This is what the press likes to call "heating up." Yeah; this is bad. And Trump will literally never know what it him. A reminder: there are a lot of people in prison who say they are innocent. Trump will be in good company. The major question will be: does he keep his Secret Service protection? Questions, questions, questions....
