    Like the "witch hunt" of almost 50 years ago?

    Stories like this:
    Mar-a-Lago Raid Story Falls Apart After Midterms, New Leak to WaPo Reveals Trump Took White House Records as 'Mementos'

    Big headline about how the narrative is falling apart, but when you read the article, it doesn't deny that he had the classified documents, just that he wasn't trying to sell them.

    Gateway Pundit. LOL. Real question: Is there a single person that actually believes the Hateway stories? After their election lie stories have been factually debunked at every level?

    Unfortunately there are millions who do, and millions more who don't know that those who are influencing them are getting their "facts" from places like Gateway Pundit.

    Apparently the initial hunt found witches.

    Either that or his lawyers hired people to search for documents because they don’t believe Trump.

    Judge refused DOJ request and urged them to continue to try to work with his legal tea. I think the ruse of the search was enough to convince the judge that DT's lawyers were trying. What I fail to understand is why ST is not personally responsible for being the custodian of his own records and required to sign that he doesn't have them. Why does an attorney have to sign for him?

    Nobody is willing to sign up to be the custodian of DT's documents. He can't find lawyers to represent him anymore

    'Trump is running out of lawyers' to defend him: legal expert (msn.com)

    Trump's own attorneys are now in trouble as well, noted Wehle, as the lawyer who signed the June attestation "reportedly has her own criminal defense counsel in this moment."

    "Donald Trump is running out of options to delay the proceeding, to delay the investigation, but he's also running out of lawyers and good lawyers and that's not a good thing for the justice system overall," said Wehle. "Good lawyers produce better outcomes."

    Getting back to post #3771 maybe Trump's potential attorneys have finally decided that they do not want to risk being in the position of having to hire attorneys of their own.

    Why doesn't DT have to be his own custodian

    The team is doing the best they can? I don't understand why DT is not personally libel instead of his "team" who he routinely lies to

    The federal judge who appointed Trump's special master just threw out his lawsuit against the FBI's raid of Mar-a-Lago

    A US federal judge who appointed the special master for former President Donald Trump just tossed his lawsuit against the FBI's raid of his Mar-a-Lago estate.

    Judge Aileen Cannon wrote in a Monday one-page order that she was dismissing the case because of a "lack of jurisdiction."

    A three-judge federal appeals court on December 2 wrote a scathing decision overturning Cannon's initial decision to side with Trump and grant him a special master to review documents taken in the FBI's search.

    Cannon's ruling on Monday officially dismisses the special master, an outside arbiter who had been tasked with reviewing all the documents that were recovered at Mar-a-Lago, including 11,000 general records and 100 documents marked as classified, with the goal of determining whether any of the documents are protected by attorney-client or executive privilege.

    Yup. Lake is quoting GP stories to "demonstrate" the election fraud in AZ on twitter.
