Justice Department subpoenas former Trump White House lawyer Eric Herschmann
He's the latest onetime top aide to the former president to receive a summons from a federal grand jury investigating the Jan. 6 attack.

Closer and closer, Donny!

tRump says the FBI took all his passports. Why?

https://www.huffpost.com/entry/trump...b06389482c893e

Why? Two words fat boy: flight risk. Although wherever he'd run to he'd have to stay there. Any friendly nation who's border he crossed would turn him over in a heartbeat.

Allen H. Weisselberg, a longtime top executive at Donald J. Trump’s family business who was indicted on tax charges last summer, is nearing a plea deal with prosecutors from the Manhattan district attorney’s office but would not cooperate with a broader investigation into Mr. Trump, according to two people with knowledge of the matter.

https://www.nytimes.com/2022/08/15/n...plea-deal.html

This should put pressure on Trump Org, which is still a defendant in the case, and also permit the DA to put Weisselberg in front of the grand jury (he can no longer plead the 5th, but still may not be very cooperative).

A DOJ filing this morning indicates that there was *ANOTHER* search warrant signed by Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart on August 5 that was not related to the search of Mar-a-Lago and instead part of a separate ongoing investigation.

Wish I could find a pic of Drumpf as Baron Vladimir Harkonnen that fits the forum limits.

Oh well.
