    The superseding indictment charges Trump, De Oliveira and Nauta with two new obstruction counts based on allegations that they instructed an unnamed, fourth worker to delete surveillance video footage at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence last summer “to prevent the footage from being provided to a federal grand jury.” (Via NPR)

    He’s totally going to jail, huh?

    Security workers aren’t paid enough to protect you from the law, lol.

    The former president told the group he had a “plan of attack” from a senior military official. Trump characterized the document as “highly confidential” and “secret information” and noted that "as president I could have declassified it.

    Sounds like it’s the document that was thought to be a plan for invading Iran. There were so many news stories about this, Trump was caught on tape admitting to a crime, but for some reason he wasn’t being charged for this document specifically. Now it looks like he is.

    Steve Cheung, spokesman for the Trump campaign, claimed the new counts are part of an effort to damage Trump as he seeks the Republican presidential nomination and “nothing more than a continued desperate and flailing attempt by the Biden Crime Family and their Department of Justice to harass President Trump and those around him.”

    The Trump campaign is projecting on more screens than Barbie right now.

      Isn’t he far and away the current frontrunner for the Republican nomination? And wouldn’t one think, I dunno, his constituents might want to know about his criminal actions?

      Oh wait, I forgot who his constituents are.
