The Justice Department has convinced a federal judge that former President Donald Trump used one of his defense attorneys in furtherance of a crime or fraud related to the existence of classified documents at Mar-a-Lago, sources familiar with the matter told CNN.

The finding – part of a major ruling Friday from Judge Beryl Howell of the DC District Court – makes clear for the first time that the Justice Department is arguing it has evidence that Trump may have committed a crime. And Howell ruled that prosecutors met the burden to overcome Trump’s right to shield discussions with his lawyers normally protected under attorney-client privilege.

[...]

Judges Nina Pillard, Michelle Childs and Florence Pan of the DC Circuit have demanded more information and arguments by early Wednesday morning, setting a deadline for Trump and his lawyers by midnight and for prosecutors to respond by 6 a.m.

The extremely tight deadlines – a turnaround essentially unheard of in this court – indicates the seriousness of the matter.

1. Definition of MAGA?

Making Attorneys Get Attorneys. 😂

For the remainder of the KKKult, it’s just MAGAt(s), pun intended.

I got this a while back from Nicolle Wallace on her MSNBC show.

2. So is Jack Smith is going for an obstruction of justice charge too along w/theft of state secrets?

"The evidence would likely be significant in the obstruction probe being pursued by special counsel Jack Smith’s team. It also underscores how critical the testimony of Trump’s defense lawyers would be in the federal grand jury investigation."

Trump had documents about our remote sensing technology aka spy satellites @ Merde a Logo which no doubt
included our satellites that are over the Ukraine region which I have no doubt he passed onto Putin/Russia. The
mother fucker should be in the U.S. Super Max Prison in Colorado. And he used his lawyer(s) to try to hide his
crimes too.

"Judges Nina Pillard, Michelle Childs and Florence Pan of the DC Circuit have demanded more information and arguments by early Wednesday morning, setting a deadline for Trump and his lawyers by midnight and for prosecutors to respond by 6 a.m."

Today is going to be a really bad day for Donny. Good!

3. I hope we find out the ruling today and nothing else happens to slow or seal the result.

I feel like I've been holding my breath (and I'm sure I'm not alone in that).

4. Oh, God. Reading your very good point about Ukraine information going to Putin made me nauseous.

That bastard, I wouldn't put it an inch past him.

And that would explain the rush. Smith's team uncovering evidence of him doing that.

5. I have a family member who worked with our remote sensing (satellites) and he/she to this day ...

... can not talk about 95% of it. I was livid when I saw Trump had documents that covered our
satellites @ Merde a Logo because we have had our "eyes on" the Russian & Ukraine for a long
time with satellites in geosynchronous orbits. The man is traitor.

6. If our assumptions are accurate, it also pisses me off to no end that this is just happening now

and not a long time ago.

7. The mother fucker should have been arrested on 1/6/21 and nothing happened and been brought in ...

... the minute those documents were found. He has gotten away with too much and for too long.

[Scrivener7]

8. And the fact that Smith is doing this four months after coming on board says

the DOJ has a lot of explaining to do about the two previous years.

But that will never happen.

9. Garland has said that "all of this" is the biggest, the most complex, and most important case ...

... the DoJ has ever had and that no man is above the law.
