Evidence of crimes.

Trump used lawyers to commit crimes for him and figured they would never be able to flip on him because of attorney client privilege.

Sur-fucking-prise.

To bring Treason charges against a former President. It would be incredible, mind blowing, I have no doubt he’s guilty of Treason, but even I would be surprised to see it as a charge, but who knows? I think espionage is more likely.

Espionage by a sitting President? It’s pretty close.
They fried the Rosenbergs for less.
Not that this will happen either.
Let’s just agree that he’s toast.

And he is truly fucked. Selling out this country for personal gain will be the last straw for the dummies that thought he was an honorable person worth voting for.

For about 25% of our population it literally doesn't matter what the facts are.

That mewling letter purportedly from the former guy's attorney (I think he just swiped a sheet of letterhead stationery) seems to take the position that because he was president once upon a time, he gets a lifetime "get out of jail free" card.

One of my favorite things ever. It’s brutally desperate. LOL!

Trump is the ultimate Karen. Demanding to see the manager.

I'm glad more officials are acknowledging that. And oh my gosh, if Jack has confirmed that that pos was selling US secrets.... holy shit. 3 different types of treason by my count: the coup, putin collusion, and now espionage. Throw away the f'in key!
