New charges filed against Trump
Federal prosecutors announced new charges against Donald Trump in his alleged hoarding and hiding of classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago home, alleging the former president and a newly-charged aide tried to keep security camera footage from being reviewed by investigators.
Trump was also hit with with a fresh charge, in addition to the 31 counts he already faces, of illegally retaining national defense information. The indictment also charges that Trump and two aides, Waltine “Walt” Nauta and Carlos De Oliveira, requested that another Trump employee "delete security camera footage at the Mar-a-Lago Club to prevent the footage from being provided to a federal grand jury.”
De Oliveira is the second Trump aide to be charged in the documents case. Nauta was charged alongside Trump in June with helping the former president mislead investigators as they sought to retrieve all of the classified documents that remained at the former president’s home and private club after he left the White House.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

That phrase pretty much sums up the last 7 years.

Former President Donald Trump has voluntarily dismissed the $500 million federal lawsuit he brought against his former attorney Michael Cohen, according to court records.
The notice, filed Thursday, states that the lawsuit will be thrown out "without prejudice," a distinction that provides Trump the option to refile it later.
Days after his first criminal indictment came down in April, Trump sued Cohen — the key witness in his New York hush-money case and ongoing fraud trial — for a half billion dollars in the Southern District of Florida. He had been scheduled for a deposition by Cohen's lawyer, which he had pushed back twice, on Monday.
The deposition was first scheduled for Sept. 6, but Trump postponed it. After a judge rescheduled it for Oct. 3, Trump pushed back the date again on the grounds that he had to attend court for his civil fraud case in New York.
U.S. District Court Judge Edwin Torres then rescheduled the deposition for a second time for Oct. 9, which is now void.
Cohen's attorney E. Danya Perry said in a statement to The Messenger that Trump dropped the case to avoid facing her questioning. -
Lol.
You mean I have to tell the truth? Fuck that.

I assume that's boilerplate. I'm not clear how it changes an FBI officer's decisions, to have been told they are "authorized to use deadly force when necessary". I mean any LEO is authorized to use deadly force when necessary. Otherwise, they wouldn't give them guns.

It's not a nothing burger.
It's a former fucking President of the United States. Period.
I'd like to know...Was deadly force authorized when Biden's home was searched?
Always remember, Operation Valkyrie was an act of sedition.

According to Shipley, former fed prosecutor, now defending ~50 Jan 6 defendants, it's SOP.

Good question. I don't even know if there was a warrant.

Reminds me of this piece I came across recently.

I don't care if it's boiler-plate.
Imagine if some trigger happy agent shot Donald Trump...Wonder what the country's reaction would be?
