Over and above any courtesy (or protocol) shown to an ex-president, it's the threat of violence I believe that is slowing down legal procedures. Just my opinion though. At this point, I will even settle for giving him the Snowden treatment and he can fly our in his own plane as long as he takes Junior with him permanently. (grin)
If he can leave he can come back. He can leave AFTER receiving a heavy prison sentence, not before.

Trump captured on tape talking about classified document he kept after leaving the White House
https://www.cnn.com/2023/05/31/polit...ley/index.html

Quote:
Federal prosecutors have obtained an audio recording of a summer 2021 meeting in which former President Donald Trump acknowledges he held onto a classified Pentagon document about a potential attack on Iran, multiple sources told CNN, undercutting his argument that he declassified everything.

The recording indicates Trump understood he retained classified material after leaving the White House, according to multiple sources familiar with the investigation. On the recording, Trump’s comments suggest he would like to share the information but he’s aware of limitations on his ability post-presidency to declassify records, two of the sources said.
Lock him up, already!

An Atlanta-area investigation of alleged election interference by Trump and his allies has broadened to include activities that happened outside Georgia, a fresh sign prosecutors may be building a sprawling RICO case.

I have to wonder if a Maga-Lardo Mussolini Aurther Bremer would have saved us from this descent to unconstitutional authoritarian depravity, or just delayed the rise of the white nationalist regressive minority promoting it.

Trump’s smoking gun recording gives Jack Smith all he needs
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opini...king-gun-tape/

Quote:
This evidence effectively destroys whatever defense Trump was trying to concoct (he didn’t know there were classified documents, he declassified them, he thought they were not classified). Trump holds the presumption of innocence and has not been indicted. However, the last time such a damning piece of evidence (a “smoking gun”) came to light, Richard M. Nixon’s presidency was effectively over. (He left office less than a week later.)

News reports now indicate the federal grand jury hearing the documents case will meet this week. An indictment, if there is one, could come within days.
Will be breaking out the bubbly!

Ryan Goodman @rgoodlaw

Put these 2 things together and what do you have?

1) Meadows “has testified before a federal grand jury…in the investigations being led by the special counsel’s office”!

2) Meadow’s actions seem to be kept secret from Trump team!

Answer: A cooperator?

Mark Meadows to plead guilty in deal to testify against Trump

Before nightfall the Cheeto Bandito will be going berserk on (un)-Truth Social. This should be amusing.
