The Donald Trump Score Card

Durham was supposed to prosecute all the alleged illegal activity of an alleged Deep State in the FBI and DOJ in general.

He ended up going after someone like Sussmann who isn't part of the FBI.

 

Georgia attorney general subpoenaed in Trump investigation | CNN Politics

excerpt:

"An Atlanta-area prosecutor investigating former President Donald Trump’s efforts to overturn Georgia’s 2020 election results has subpoenaed state Attorney General Chris Carr, according to a copy of the subpoena obtained by CNN.

The subpoena, which calls for Carr to testify in late June, was first reported by The Associated Press.

In December 2020, Trump phoned Carr and warned him not to rally other Republicans to oppose a lawsuit Trump’s allies had filed with the Supreme Court seeking to toss millions of votes from Georgia and other battleground states that Joe Biden won. Carr later filed a response with the Supreme Court urging the justices to reject the Trump-backed lawsuit. A day later, the Supreme Court rejected the lawsuit.

Investigators, led by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, have been digging into whether Trump’s efforts to pressure Georgia officials to upend the election results may have been criminal. A special grand jury seated in the case is expected to begin hearing from witnesses this week.

The Carr subpoena was one of several issued to Georgia officials as Willis’ team has ramped up its investigative activity. CNN previously reported that half a dozen current and former officials in the Georgia Secretary of State’s office – including Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger – have also been subpoenaed."

Trump Pushes Bogus Article Claiming 50-Point Georgia Landslide Due to Fraud

excerpt:

"David Perdue, former President Donald Trump’s pick to replace Brian Kemp as governor of Georgia, got trounced in last week’s Republican primary, only receiving about 22 percent of the vote compared to Kemp’s 74 percent. Trump is now pushing the false idea that the 50-point defeat was the result of “obvious” voter fraud.

An email sent out Tuesday by Save America PAC, Trump’s political action committee, links to an article from last Thursday by Emerald Robinson, a former OANN and Newsmax correspondent, titled “Something Stinks In Georgia.”

“Nobody in any election in America gets 74% of the votes. Ever. It doesn’t happen,” the article claims, falsely, with added emphasis. “Obvious fraud.”

Robinson doesn’t seem to understand how Perdue, whom Trump himself called a longshot to win back in March, could have performed so poorly given how the former senator obtained Trump’s endorsement, largely for refusing to accept the results of the 2020 election. Trump’s endorsement, according to Robinson, is “the single most powerful force in the universe of American politics.” (Again, emphasis hers.)"

 

Trump is upset about Sussmann being acquitted.


Trump on Sussmann verdict: ‘Our country is going to hell’ | The Hill

excerpt:

“Our Legal System is CORRUPT, our Judges (and Justices!) are highly partisan, compromised or just plain scared, our Borders are OPEN, our Elections are Rigged, Inflation is RAMPANT, gas prices and food costs are “through the roof,” our Military “Leadership” is Woke, our Country is going to HELL, and Michael Sussmann is not guilty,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social, the small conservative social networking site he founded.

 

Herschel Walker won the GA primary 68% to 13%, a 55% margin.

Walker is running for a U.S. Senate seat in GA and doesn't have elected office experience.


ELECTION RESULTS: Herschel Walker wins Republican nomination for U.S. Senate; will face Warnock in November

excerpt:

"Walker earned 68.2% of the vote in Republican primary, with about 97% of votes counted as of 1:00 p.m. Wednesday. Walker will now face off against current U.S. Senator Raphael Warnock in November.

Walker soundly defeated his five opponents in the Republican primary. Current Georgia Commissioner of Agriculture, Gary Black, was the next highest vote-getter with 13.4% of the almost 1.2 million votes cast in the Republican race."

 

Walker's opponents, Black, Saddler, and Clark, have political experience. Walker doesn't.

 

“You all look like idiots now”: Legal experts mock Trump after John Durham’s “big fat loss” in court
"What a roaring waste of money and time," criminal defense attorney says after special counsel loses Clinton case

Legal experts mock Trump after John Durham’s “big fat loss” in court

excerpt:

"Former President Donald Trump's special counsel John Durham has spent three years trying to sink members of Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign for supposedly trying to frame Trump over his connections to Russia.

On Tuesday, after under seven hours of deliberation, the jury concluded that the Clinton campaign lawyer, Michaell Sussmann was innocent of lying to the FBI when he turned over information that they discovered."

 

Trump is still boasting about his crowd size at the Ellipse before his riot at the Capitol.

Some of the people Trump is promoting are so bad that it's causing cross-party voting to stop his picks.


Some Democrats voting in GOP primaries to block Trump picks

excerpt:

"WASHINGTON (AP) — Diane Murray struggled with her decision all the way up to Election Day.

But when the time came, the 54-year-old Georgia Democrat cast a ballot in last week's Republican primary for Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. While state law allowed her to participate in either party's primary, she said it felt like a violation of her core values to vote for the Republican. But it had to be done, she decided, to prevent a Donald Trump -backed “election denier” from becoming the battleground state's election chief.

“I feel strongly that our democracy is at risk, and that people who are holding up the big lie, as we call it, and holding onto the former president are dangerous to democracy,” said Murray, who works at the University of Georgia. “I don’t know I’ll do it again because of how I felt afterward. I just felt icky.”"

Raffensperger, a conservative who refused to support the former president’s direct calls to overturn the 2020 election, probably would not have won the May 24 Republican primary without people like Murray.

 

Correct, starting with the three judges you picked for the SCOTUS.

Donald Trump Seems Pretty Panicky About That Criminal Investigation in Georgia!

excerpt:

"Donald Trump has a long, robust history of getting away with every shady, underhanded, wildly unethical, likely criminal thing he’s ever done in his life. Whether it’s stiffing contractors he owes money to, paying a porn star to keep quiet about their alleged affair, or inciting a violent riot in a botched attempt to overturn the results of an election he lost, the comeuppance that would befall other people never seems to come for the ex-president. But according to a former federal prosecutor, the guy’s luck may be running out thanks to the state of Georgia.

Over the weekend, Joyce Vance, a former U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Alabama, told MSNBC that Fulton County district attorney Fani Willis, who impaneled a special grand jury earlier this year, has wildly damning evidence on her hands re: Trump’s attempt to steal the 2020 Georgia vote. In order to indict the former president, Vance told Katie Phang, Willis needs “proof of the former president’s state of mind,” and, according to the ex-prosecutor, Willis may have it thanks to the recording of the phone call that took place on January 2, 2021, ahead of the official vote certification, in which Trump ordered Georgia secretary of state Brad Raffensperger to “find” him the exact number of votes necessary to win the state, despite the fact that he had actually lost. “I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have, because we won the state,” Trump told Raffensperger, before threatening to prosecute the local official for failing to follow through. That the then president was not “asking not for an investigation into potential voting fraud, not for a look to see whether something went wrong, but he’s asking” Raffensperger to “find him the specific number of votes that he needs,” Vance told Phang is “pretty good evidence of criminal intent walking into it.”"

Peter Navarro subpoena suggests DoJ may be investigating Trump

excerpt:

"One grand jury was impaneled last year for a contempt charge against Trump’s strategist Steve Bannon. A second is examining organizers of pro-Trump rallies, a third is looking at Trump lawyers in a scheme to falsify slates of electors, and now a fourth concerns Navarro.

Navarro was not told when he was served with the grand jury subpoena whether he was a target or a subject of the investigation. If he was a target, that might indicate the subpoena was related to a contempt case. If he was a subject, it could make him part of a wider inquiry.

The distinction also raises a third possibility, according to the former assistant US attorneys: he may be a target for a contempt case, and also a subject in a different case – and prosecutors might use the contempt case as leverage to gain cooperation for the other.

A spokesman for the justice department and the US attorney’s office did not respond to requests for comment."

 

The call to Raffensperger was blatant.

Also in clear view was Trump's transfer of classified U.S. documents to Mar-a-Lago without permission, an incident that hasn't received as much press as his other antics that are more clandestine.

 

Grand jury used in probe of classified documents taken to Mar-a-Lago

https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2022/05/12/mar-a-lago-documents-grand-jury/

excerpt:

"Investigators have begun conducting interviews, and a federal grand jury has issued a subpoena, as part of the Justice Department’s probe into how 15 boxes of government documents — some marked classified — made their way to President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence, people familiar with the matter said.

The subpoena and interviews are signs that the Justice Department investigation, which was first reported by The Washington Post last month, is moving forward, with potential legal or political consequences for Trump or others involved in the handling of the government materials.

One person familiar with the matter, who like the others spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation, said investigators had quizzed some former Trump White House aides about the boxes and how they were prepared; another person said investigators were still making interview requests of those involved. The subpoena was issued to the National Archives and Records Administration, a third person familiar with the matter said.

Mishandling classified materials is a federal crime, though substantiating charges in such cases can be difficult. The FBI often investigates to determine who might have seen sensitive government information, and prevent it from spreading further.

A Justice Department spokesman declined to comment."
