Smitty, at the Other McCain, BREAKING: Trump Indicted. At the Peacock, Trump indicted on seven criminal charges in classified documents case. Sundance at CTH, Transparently Political, President Trump Announces His Indictment in Federal Court in Miami by Biden Appointed Special Counsel Jack Smith."
Here’s the “tell” that every pundit, analyst and litigation expert will pretend they don’t notice. It’s the funniest part of the entire thing and yet no one, again except us, is noticing it. The DOJ has already predicated the baseline of their claim by saying they cannot tell anyone, even the court, what the nature of the documents are that underpin their assertion. Remember, they wouldn’t even let a court appointed “special master” review the documents.
Stop and think about that for a moment. NO ONE knows what the documents are, and the DOJ has stated they will never say what the documents are. The DOJ is filing a case about the mishandling of documents, in whatever legal construct they put forth, while simultaneously saying they are under no obligation to tell anyone what the documents are.
Althouse, "The corrupt Biden Administration has informed my attorneys that I have been Indicted, seemingly over the Boxes Hoax..." ""... even though Joe Biden has 1850 Boxes at the University of Delaware, additional Boxes in Chinatown, D.C., with even more Boxes at the University of Pennsylvania, and documents strewn all over his garage floor where he parks his Corvette, and which is 'secured' by only a garage door that is paper thin, and open much of the time." Writes Trump, at Truth Social, just now." Sundance again, Who is Really Conducting the Jack Smith Prosecution of Trump? Lawfare’s Andrew Weissmann and Norm Eisen?
On June 2nd former Mueller special counsel and impeachment operative, Andrew Weissmann and Norm Eisen respectively, published their current Trump prosecution memo [Read Here] using a novel and arcane interpretation of US Code 793. Four days later media began reporting from leaks within the Jack Smith special counsel of the main legal approach they were going to use against President Trump [citation]. What approach is Jack Smith taking, US Code 793! This is not coincidental.
Also from sundance, Jack Smith, Andrew Weissmann and Lisa Monaco’s Novel Theory – US Code 793 to Prosecute Trump, It Won’t Work. I guess we'll see, but courts have shot down Andy Weissman's novel legal prosecutions in the past. And as long as we're citing sundance, Greg Kelly Outlines the ‘Get Trump’ Weaponization Scheme Behind NARA. Basically, Trump requested help from NARA (National Archives) to prepare his papers for moving out of office. NARA, which had helped Obama and previous presidents, refused, and made Trump's team pack. After Trump move his shit himself, NARA went to DOJ and accused him of "stealing" government papers.

Breitbart, Pollak: Indicting a Former President over Nonsense Is Playing with Fire. IMHO, The US has officially crossed into Banana Republic territory. Insty, SPEAKER MCCARTHY ON THE TRUMP INDICTMENT: Kevin McCarthy@SpeakerMcCarthy, "Today is indeed a dark day for the United States of America. It is unconscionable for a President to indict the leading candidate opposing him. Joe Biden kept classified documents for decades. I, and every American who believes in the rule of law, stand with President Trump against this grave injustice. House Republicans will hold this brazen weaponization of power accountable." If the Republicans in the House had any balls they would immediately bring impeachment proceedings against Joe Biden.
Anxious, House GOP drops plan to hold FBI director in contempt, after he relented and allowed the House Oversight Committee to see the FBI document which alleges that Joe Biden received at $5M bribe to get the Ukrainian prosecutor looking at Burisma fired.

Beege Wellborn hears POTATUS: "I'm honest" When I'm bought I stay bought until a better offer comes around.
At The Wombat's In The Mailbox: 06.08.23, Nice Deb at Am Great reports Matt Gaetz Introduces Resolution to Censure January 6th Committee Chair Bennie Thompson Over Mishandled Files.
According to House rules, a committee chair is required to turn over all committee records to the House Clerk at the close of Congress, in the interest of transparency and to preserve the historical record of Congress.
“House Rule VII governs official House records, requiring committees and officers to transfer to the Clerk, 1) any noncurrent records of committees and subcommittees, and 2) those created or acquired by House Officers and their staffs in the course of their official duties.”
“Lawmakers investigating the @weaponization of the federal government are unable to determine which records of the @January6thCmte were kept or destroyed before Republicans took control of the House,” Gaetz explained in a tweet Wednesday afternoon. “Rep. Thompson, in a flagrant violation of House rules, improperly sent the records to the Biden White House and outside the rightful possession of Congress.”
KT at Hat Hair reports FBI arrests Bob's Burgers actor for January 6 riot actions.
Jay Johnston, a voice actor for the animated television show Bob’s Burgers, was arrested and charged Wednesday for his participation in the January 6, 2021 riot on Capitol Hill. He was benched by that show in December 2021 when his participation in the actions of that day became known. He was the voice of Jimmy Pesto on the show.
. . .
Johnston is 54 and lives in Los Angeles. On January 6, 2021, the DOJ accuses him of allegedly being near the front of the protesters who gathered on the West Plaza of the Capitol Building. It sounds as though he is considered a leader of the protesters. Allegedly, he participated in a group effort to push against the police in the tunnel.
That's enough to chew on a while.
