(11,777 posts)No nuclear! Which means, there Were nuclear documents of some sort. DOJ was expecting to find them, probably some of those empty files...

Relocating any military personnel, equipment, bases, are next. I hope that our security people understood the ramifications of traitor getting into the White House, and gave him either fake documents, or the least harmful. I fear they didn't, but I keep hoping.
Anyone who traitor was blackmailing should go ahead and come clean. If they do, it'll defang the monster a little bit. If any people have committed capital crimes, they have to answer for what they did, but JC, stop letting a complete unhuman monster call the shots.

(20,631 posts)a whole bunch of high-level Saudis here in the U.S., with that "renegade" golf tour event taking place at Bedminster. Hopefully, this angle is being looked at.

This situation is way worse than anyone can imagine. Maybe 5 Eyes intercepted something so we can put Trump before a firing squad?
I have no doubt that Saudi Arabia bought military-related nuclear documents. Jared got a 2 billion dollar loan and the Saudis are holding golf tournaments at Trump courses where it will be easy to launder money.

(25,993 posts)Ours is not the only intelligence that has been affected by this monster, bet on it. They're giving us time to handle it, but even if the general public doesn't hear about it, there will come a time when those allies bring pressure to bear: deal with this situation, and make it stick or we will never trust you again.
That's untenable. As good as our intelligence people are, they need foreign contacts. Not, just assets, but peers in other agencies abroad. The concern about letting tfg off the hook is real, but this time around I don't think there is any way possible way to let him skate, even as a former president. Our allies will not stand for it, nor should they.

Mr. Ected
(9,675 posts)Enough of the deference because of the former office he held (and most likely stole). Enough of the legal footsies we play with him because his cult will be triggered.
THIS MAN POSES A CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER TO ALL OF US.

(5,876 posts)Empty folders, missing classified information, a THREAT to tell the world what that classified information is. Why the FUCK isn't he in jail NOW?

(1,204 posts)I'm so with you - despite the chest thumping, Garland *is* treating Trump with fear and favor. Trump's armed followers? Draw them out! The National Guards have much better tech. Guns don't win wars - communications, recon, surveillance, discipline and teamwork do.

(2,947 posts)negotiate with Trump by offering him the following: In return for coming clean with the who, what, where, and how much TS etc., he stole and sold to others, he would be imprisoned for life at Mar-a-Lago. His movements in this "prison" would be captured on CC, the size of his prison cell would be walled off to mimick the size of a regular prison cell, he'd not be entitled to any visitors, phone, radio, internet, interviews, access to the outdoors, etc. His presidential retirement would go toward the costs of his imprisonment. The ingredients for his food would be delivered -- he'd have to prepare it himself, and he'd also have to clean his own "cell" including his golden throne. And, if any of his information cannot be verified he'd go to a real prison and not one of those fancy ones, either.

Sociopaths are a category apart, and many of them rise to positions of high power.

Fuck that POS... he needs to be arrested asap and that's all there is to it. If it were anyone else, they'd (we'd) be in a cell for weeks already!
He deserves no special treatment of any kind, especially after what he's done.

(7,934 posts)He knows everything the Orange Menace did, to whom he spoke and what deals were hatched because Jared had a piece of the action every single time.
You don't think he got to play with 2 billion of the best petro-dollars because he smiles at MBS when the cameras roll. Jared is washing them for his Saudi pals. He got the job because he helped TLG deliver Nuclear to MBS.
