One administration official told Trump before the 2020 election that if he lost, he should strike Iran's nuclear program, the authors report.

But the authors conveniently don’t divulge a name.

It was Jared.

So if I was to ask the editor, "Who did your author to go for this source material?", the editor would say, "He went to Jared!"  

This simulation is painful, but not without a playful sense of humor.

Sometimes that's the price you pay to get the information on-the-record. The writers, editors and fact-checkers know who it is, though.

Trump doesn't think he'll get indicted over the classified documents but says an indictment won't keep him for running for president:

Quote

Former President Trump on Thursday said he “can’t imagine being indicted” over his handling of classified documents or a scheme to put forward alternate electors after the 2020 election, but that if he were, it would not deter him from a possible White House run in 2024.

“I can’t imagine being indicted. I’ve done nothing wrong,” Trump told conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt.

“I don’t think the people of the United States would stand for it,” Trump added. “And as you know, if a thing like that happened, I would have no prohibition against running. You know that.”

Trump in the interview claimed he had no involvement in a plot to put forward alternate electors in Georgia that would have tipped the state for him despite President Biden winning by thousands of votes, though he insisted the concept was “very common.”

Georgia prosecutors have been investigating the scheme and interviewing Trump associates like Rudy Giuliani in the matter.

The former president also repeatedly denied any wrongdoing in his handling of classified documents after the FBI searched his Mar-a-Lago estate last month. The agency conducted the search months after it found dozens of classified documents at the residence and unsuccessfully tried to get the materials back from Trump.

Trump reasserted his claim that he had declassified all of the documents he kept at his home more than a year after leaving the White House, though experts have disputed he could do so without going through a more formal process and Trump’s legal team has not argued in court that he declassified the materials.

“There is no reason that they can [indict], other than if they’re just sick and deranged, which is always possible, because I did absolutely … nothing wrong,” Trump said Thursday.

The former president repeatedly said he does not believe the American public will accept him being indicted, warning there would be “problems” if he were.

Hewitt, noting some would interpret his comments as inciting violence, asked what kind of problems he was referring to, though Trump did not specify.

“That’s not inciting, I’m just saying what my opinion is,” Trump said. “I don’t think the people of this country would stand for it.”

Former President Donald Trump said Thursday the nation would face “problems ... the likes of which perhaps we’ve never seen” if he is indicted over his handling of classified documents after leaving office, an apparent suggestion that such a move by the Justice Department could spark violence from Trump’s supporters.

The former president said an indictment wouldn’t stop him from running for the White House again and repeatedly said Americans “would not stand” for his prosecution.

If a thing like that happened, I would have no prohibition against running,” Trump said in an interview with conservative talk radio host Hugh Hewitt. “I think if it happened, I think you’d have problems in this country the likes of which perhaps we’ve never seen before. I don’t think the people of the United States would stand for it.

 

Hewitt asked Trump what he meant by “problems.”

“I think they’d have big problems. Big problems. I just don’t think they’d stand for it. They will not sit still and stand for this ultimate of hoaxes,” Trump said.

Well, which is it, young feller? You want I should sit still or stand? Mean to say, if'n I sit still, I can't rightly stand. And if'n I stand, I'm a-gonna be in motion.

So implied threats of terror? This is how jihadist clerics worked and we vaporized them with drones.

He continues to incite insurrection against the United States.  He is a violent terrorist traitor.  If he was brown, he'd already have taken a Maverick missile up his ass.

The order.  https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/64911367/89/trump-v-united-states/

In any other case, I would applaud the skepticism toward the government's representations.

Trump's gonna have to pay for the whole shebang. Haha.  He won't be able to chisel on that bill.  Between his lawyers and the special master, it's gonna cost him seven figures, easily.

Lawdogs, how fast will the 11th move on this? 

They should move fast with the national security implications of this decision, and hear the case next week.  That said, I have less than zero faith in the federal judiciary right now.  And assuming, DOJ win at the 11th Circuit, and they should.  Cannon got a no brainer decision wrong because she's in the bag for trump.  Trump will appeal to SCOTUS, and I have even less faith about what Kav, Alito, Gorsuch, Thomas, and Aunt Lydia will do.

I would expect the 11th Circuit to rule in a week or less, on the issue of the stay of the Special Master order, or parts thereof.

I would then expect the appeal on the merits to be expedited, which should compress the timeframe from six months to a year down to three months or so.

In the meantime, whatever of the Special Master order is not stayed, I would expect to proceed to completion in that time.

Trump told guests at a cocktail party over the holidays in 2020 that he was leaving early to return to Washington because of fears Iran may be trying to assassinate him to avenge the US killing of the country's top general a year earlier.

If there was ever a time to root for Iran.

Well, to be 100% fair, the documents are not before her.

She really only has the government's assertion that they are marked classified.  That's probably at least in a declaration/affidavit somewhere, and a photo of some folders.  I'd take anyone's word over some mealy-mouthed shit from Trump's lawyers.  But those are the actual facts.

The documents will also presumably not be in front of the 11th circuit, or SCOTUS, when it goes there after the 11th upholds the ruling, right? 

So, as many have predicted, this is going to take a long time before the government can proceed with the investigation?
