    Non-legal person question. But if he doesn’t identify any documents that were planted, then continues to babble about to publicly, can he be held in contempt?

    Non-legal person answer. I dunno. :p

    I would think the Cannon would have to issue a gag order on the topic for trump to be at risk of contempt. Gator JDs?

    Great points. A Dearie trap?

    Figured given the subject matter (FBI) this would be the appropriate dumping zone.

    Anything Trump says was planted and he has no standing it object to. And any response Trump gives that the documents were taken from him incriminates him. Trump will seek to avoid this

    I have also been pointing out that the appropriate place to address these issues is the court with jurisdiction over the warrant. The
    "Special Master" (Judge Dearie) wants briefing in that subject.

    It's sure nice to have an adult (Dearie) in the room.

    He is an active federal judge (senior status) with a staff, law clerk, and a brain. No nonsense.

    Probably not given the “nobody should take me seriously” legal defense that Tucker and others have effectively used.

    Nothing anyone associated with Trumpco says should be believed unless under oath.

    Don’t know the answer. A few tips.

    1. Don’t listen to lawyers like me that don’t practice criminal law. We know nothing. Plenty of lawyers here with true subject matter expertise.

    2. The true experts with subject matter expertise cannot even necessarily translate Trump legal proceedings. Trump involved legal proceedings don’t follow known standards, rules or logic. We all know nothing when it comes to “making sense” of any matter with the demonic chaos agent.

    Let cynicism be your guide, though I was proven wrong by the 11th Cir. this week.

    Hope that helps
