Trump stole and sold our nation's top secrets. Trump sold or traded those secrets to our ....

.... nation's enemies aka Russia and Saudi Arabia (my guess)

He needs to be indicted*, picked up, and locked up ASAP as national security and flight risk.
God only knows how many of our world wide intelligence agents and contacts have been put
@ risk and or already killed. Trump had documents about our surveillance satellites in his closet
and that information has no doubt been passed on to Vlad/Russia including information about
satellites we have had or still have in geosynchronous orbit over Ukraine. Trump also took the
documents that had to do w/his links to Russia, the dirty 2016 election, and his work along with
others to overthrow our democracy so he could stay in power and avoid criminal and civil penalties
that he knew he was coming once he was out of the White House.

* Just pick one of the charges .... there are so many.

As I have written too many times America has had 3 people who have been convicted of espionage
@ the level which Trump might have been @ and they were the Rosenbergs (executed) and FBI
Agent Robert Hanssen who is doing 15 life terms in the Fed's super max prison in Florence, Colorado.

of different TV shows. Haven't watched TV news or infotainment in over a year, but things are getting quite interesting, so I'm curious what the top stories are these days.

This morning I had Morning Joe on and caught the WaPo reporter (I believe that's who it was, the one reporting on the overnight story re: Alex Cannon and docs not having been returned to NARA) say something to the effect that the DOJ investigation into the documents is much further along than their 1/6 investigation.

I thought that was an interesting point. When the MAL FBI search happened, even though an insurrection is a huge, horrific story impacting national security and democracy itself, I immediately thought "Wow, now the insurrection actually seems quaint." The stolen classified docs story seemed MUCH bigger.

I hope all involved in both crimes are held accountable and are kept far from holding any positions of influence ever again.

Trump is a two year old...MINE!!...his cache of documents are not for sale or trade... they're leverage...extortion, blackmail, intimidation, bribery...and the more obscene, salacious the better...and remember, Trump was only too willing to share Israeli intelligence with his Russian buddies, entertain despots in his MAL hotel dining room with members in attendance: the peacock thing..ego masturbation...Trump is depraved/cruel/crude/amoral/profane/narcissistic/stupid..he's a psychopath, but he his not deep...

the reason he hasn't already been arrested likely has to do with substantial behind the scenes
support for him by some very powerful money people and republican plants.
If it were merely a question of law, he would be behind bars. I agree with that meme that
states "Trump needs to go, and I don't care how."

Justice matters.

And that doesn't include the 4 years Hair Furhair had free reign to sell any National Security information(s) to the highest bidders!

JFC, what Trump did is so much worse than that!! The longer we wait to indict Trump the weaker we look, as a nation & as the Democratic Party. That's just my opinion, but this is the worst national security breach in our history & our response has been to put on the kid gloves instead of the boxing gloves.

And Trump being installed into the White House was part of the biggest crime in our
nation's history and outside of the big boss in that criminal operation Vlad Putin, Trump
is the biggest crook in that operation.

Right there. Two solid charges to put him in jail.

Then follow with more charges after he is in jail.

I am fairly confident that Trump still has more documents hidden somewhere. I don't think the FBI got everything. Also, it is possible that he made copies of some of them and they could have ended up anywhere.

and it seriously sounds like something Trump would do. Nothing he does would surprise me, unless of course he did something truly decent and honest.

the Magats will control the purse strings. Do not put it past them to shut down the government just to shut down investigations into Trump.
